Oh yeah if we include remakes like HG/SS it would definitely change my rankings and move up gen 4.
HG was my game of choice and i loved it.

Let's face it, after FF7, the whole FF series has started to go really weird places and it's only gotten worse since 13. They clearly dumped a fuck ton of money into that hot mess, so much so that they needed to create two other hot mess games just to make up for it.

FF15 might be cool, but I sort of expect it to be just as far up its own ass as the last few and with more combat mini skirts.

FF9 and even FF10 and often considered as good as or better than 7. Some people even like 8, for some reason. Only 12 and 13 that don't really get much love at all.

How has gen 6 competitive changed btw? I haven't played in a few months, back then Rotom-W and Talonflame were king.

Never played 7, but 9 doesn't stand out for me whatsoever and 10 is my top 3 in Final Fantasy (I like FF4 -- The one with Cecil).

12 fucking blows and should burn

Really I just get tired of fighting to stop the end of the world. Give me a story like persona 4, where you are just stopping a murderer. It doesn't need to be the end of the world every time, we could just stop a war or save a group of people.

FF9 is king as far as a Final Fantasy game actually having combat goes. I'm talking optimized combat here since FF9 actually requires you to think about stuff as opposed to spamming the same 1-2 spells over and over again. Admittedly people can make a case for Charge! but it promotes a very high risk high reward game play which I personally enjoy in video games so I let it slide (plus its really only good on the final boss gauntlet)

Plus the story is actually decent as well (Vivi's death )

actually i think thats a big problem with JRPGs in recent times, its always deciding the fate of the world or of humanity, in a super esoteric context..

don't tell me to provide a legend for those charts cause we already got shaella in this thread - eieio | Bulba is my waifu

It's not like you weren't fighting to stop the end of the world before FF8... In 6 you even failed to do so, which was interesting.

That's not a series going to weird places, that's a series not going to weird places, and you getting tired of it because of it.

That's a big reason why people love 7. Not because it is better, but because it came before them.

You fail in FFV as well IIRC
You also fail to save Terra in FF9
Cocoon explodes in FF13-2

Hell most of the games feature a planet dying if you think about it

It's more about the way you continue the game after the apocalypse, in the same world. Kinda like Chrono's death, even though protagonists dieing in the end of the game aren't something new.

Did you play FF13? Cause that game is a hot pile of weird nonsense. It's so dumb and Japanese in the worst ways possible. And the combat is super weird and passively it kinda hurts.

And them there is Persona 4, the superior JRPG, with better combat and systems, likable characters and Japanese in all the right ways.

If by "recent" you mean "every single one since the beginning of the genre", then sure.
Average means I'm better than half of you.
