I just beat Final Fantasy 5, and it's by far my least favorite.

>>388484332
what the fuck are you talking about

FF4, I despise everything about it excluding the music.

6 is the best mainline, Curtain Call is the best spinoff.

>>388484332
My least favorite FF? Probably 12. 5 is great. You have horrible taste.

>>388484332

II but that feels like cheating so I'll say XV.

Also V is amazing and should be top 3 for anyone.

OP here, I know it's what i should come to expect but it was a grind fest. I didn't feel that way for 4, or any of the others for that reason. The jobs were cool and kept it interesting to a point but i found myself grinding and grinding and it sucked the fun out of it. Neo exdeath was awesome though, the splinter thing mid way in the game made me laugh out loud. 6/10.

>>388485584
>6/10

>>388485442
LR was awful. I liked 13 and 13-2 though.

Favorite is 6.

>>388484332
XIII

>>388484332
6. It's not the worst game in the series, 2, 8, and 13 are objectively lower quality, but it's the largest downward slide in quality from the previous game and isn't fun to play at all. Like FF2, it feels like they threw in everything without thinking about the consequences and didn't even try to have a balance pass, but unlike FF2, there were plenty of examples of why not to do that by that point. The end result was a game where random encounters are boring oneshottable speedbumps instead of something you need to pick apart to conserve resources like in FF4 and FF5, MP management doesn't matter, and most bosses are a joke if you have half a brain.

>>388485584
You know, when you're grinding in a game that doesn't need you to grind and then complain about it maybe the problem is you.

When you phrase it like that, yes. Stop being a shitter. If you're not doing some sort of challenge run FF5 is very beatable without grinding.

>>388488386
I'd just like to interject into this conversation real quick. yes, you can beat 5 without grinding, but to get to fun skills and to mix and match abilities you really have to spend some time grinding

>>388489120
Unless you're defining fun skills as solely X-Fight+Spellblade+Dual Wield and Dualcast+Time Magic+Summons all mastered at the same time, you're wrong. Most jobs give you good skills long before you master them and at a much lower AP cost than any of those.

>>388484332

>>388489489
At least it's fun unlike 2, 3, and 5. You can just pick up and enjoy the first game. You can't with those three; they're just tedious and potentially frustrating versions of the first.

Pretty atrocious taste OP, FFV is one of the best in the series. Worst are II, VIII, XIII and XV, not counting spinoffs.

I haven't got through all of them yet but have completed one through six on my toaster. The worst one is three. No nostalgia involved as I started playing them the first time last year. The objective rating is
five/four>two>six>one>power gap>three
five is better for gameplay and humor, four is better for characters and music

FF4 is how I first got into the series, and it turned out to be my least favorite. Not that I hate it, but every other game in the series just turned out to be a better experience.

I just wish there was a crossover/multiverse game, just so I can use Rydia outside of FF4. She's like the only character I really liked in that game.

>>388496217
Interesting. I like most of the cast of 4 and I like all of the final party. The ds version is especially good with the retranslation and putting original script stuff into the speech bubbles.

>>388484332

3, i love class system shit

3 was the least engaging for me. Worse job system than V and the story is nothing special.

>>388484332
I hope I don't get too much hate for this,but my least favourite FF is XIII.

>>388484332

>>388496982
It gets an unfair amount of hate. People wrote off the battle system without giving it a chance.

>>388497037
I beat the game, the battle system is alright, the music is pretty good, everything else can go suck a fart.

>>388496135

Final Fantasy XV will always be shit no matter how much your addled brain tells you otherwise. You have singlehandedly made an already shitty community that much worse, and I genuinely hope you kill yourself for making it impossible to have any critical discussion about the game.

>>388497314
I don't think (most) of the characters are as bad as people say either to be honest. I like the cast of 13 more than 10 personally.

>>388497338
Fuck off you piece of fucking trash, FFXV will always be great no matter how much you try to samefag and deny that. You have single handlely tried to shit up any and all potential means of discussing XV with your fucking shitpost meme images, lies and constant dicksucking of Nomura or anything not in XV. You are the absolute biggest fucking scum to the FF community and /v/ as a whole.

>>388484332
V is my favorite. You have an absolute shit taste, OP.

>>388497423
>I like the cast of 13 more than 10 personally.

I'll honest, I got used to Lightning, Hope and Snow faster than I did Tidus.

It took him manning up during the Al Bhed Home attack before I started being ok with him.

Favorite FF is 5. Least favorite FF is 12.

Haven't bothered playing anything after 12 and it seems like I've avoided massive shitheaps.

>>388497314
>the battle system is alright, the music is pretty good
Perfect description of XIII, it would be a lot better if they opened up the entire battle system to you much, much earlier though. I really don't know why they waited until chapter 9 to do such because once you actually get access to it and do some high level hunts it's a ton of fun but it takes way too long for that to happen.

>>388497701
Rikku just felt like a yuffie retread, Yuna was boring demure chick, Lulu had potential but barely spoke, I found Wakka annoying, Auron didn't speak enough, neither did Kimahri.

I might have liked them if it was an ensemble cast thing, but instead it's "Tidus' story" except he's really annoying.

You're the exception rather than the norm I think.

6 is honestly my least favorite, i have no idea what people see in it. only cool parts are Narshe

>>388498369
I understand not liking it but I refuse to believe it's your absolute least favorite from the 15 mainline installments.

>>388498493
lets see,

1, 2, 3, dont really count
I like 4 more than 6
I like 5 more than 6
I like 7, 8, 9, X, and XII more than 6
Overall, I probably like more things about XIII than I like 6, same for XIV and XV.
never played XI

to me, 6 is a C across the board. Something like XIII might be a D+ in some areas but has a B+ elsewhere.

6 also has the worst battle system, no materia, no job system, no junction, no nothing.

What about climbing up the cultist tower and having Relm slap some sense into Strago? Or re-obtaining Locke in the cave full of empty chests, and finding out he's the one who opened them? Or how about obtaining the Falcon, so that the optimistically emotional BGM plays after having walked to the depressing music of the World of Ruin?

There are so many cool parts in FF6. It's okay to dislike the game, but Narshe being the only cool part? I don't buy that.

I think you just sucked at it.

>>388497994
See what I mean? You just prove it time and time again, even now you post a fucking prerelease webm of ep Prompto which I'm not even fucking sure you know what it's trying to prove.

>>388498779
but all of the FF games have stuff like this, and I think FF6 is overall the most flat out of virtually all of them. Oh, I liked Gau too.

>>388499059

But that's a strawman, anon. I was arguing against you saying Narshe being the only cool part in the game. It leads one to believe that you either haven't played the entire game, or only seen videos of it.

Jesus I'd forgotten how piss easy they made later games. I've been playing the older games recently and just booted up 7. In 4 monsters in the first dungeon do like 1/3rd of your health and in 7 they do like 1/25th of your health.

>>388499216
I think the esper battle in Narshe, with the moogles and when you have multiple parties, is the only part of the game that stands out as iconic to me versus the rest of the series. Just like some people say Midgar is the only good thing about FF7, I think that environment wise, the best part of FF6 is Narshe and other stuff is forgettable. And I still contend that it has pretty much the worst battle system in terms of both character customization and defined roles, from at least the SNES and PS eras.

What I really miss is the diversity of enemy encounters. I mean, some games might have a lot of different monster designs, but they all go down with the same strategy.

For example, I think it was FF4, in a cave where you could encounter three fish enemies that die easily to thunder, you could also encounter six zombies that are resistant to both elemental and physical attacks. Stuff like that was awesome.

>>388499582
Yep. That's the cave I just finished. I've beaten 4 but I'm playing the ds version now. Just finished 1 for the first time as well despite it being my first game in the series.

>>388499684
really didnt care for it, its okay but generally I think its fedora tier, and all FF games have a iconic scenes.

either 15 or 13. 15 might take the cake because of how bland it felt for me to play, For an ARPG, it sure was meh.
