I hated XII 2 hours in.
Storyline sucked balls.
Waiting just to smack guys with auto-attack sucked balls.
Graphics were good.
No hot girls. Ashe was o-KAY (didn't get to her but my roomie did b/c he has a higher tolerance than me for boring gameplay.
Also, most FF games are man vs world or saving the world or w/e. XII was just kinda like nation vs nation.

balthier was the biggest let down ever. who else was highly disappointed when you finally find his pirate ship and crew and it ended up being a bunch of moogles instead of a pack of hardass pirates ready to backstab you whenever you turn around?

I think FF12 is actually one of the best FFs they ever made in terms of pure gameplay, but the story was one of the worst they ever wrote.

Why do you think 12 was bad?

FF12 story yes was pretty bad, but the battle scene was a pretty new one, i guess it worked out fine...

Let me reveal a little secret for you. Within the final fantasy series, there are two games that heavily influence two known/major figures on teamliquid.

I agree with the sentiments on FFXII, the characters and story were boring, and once I set up my characters all I did was walk towards enemies and wait for them to die. The setting was alright and the graphics were great but it was definitely my least favorite of the main FF games.

CFDragon I don't really see what point you are trying to make. All games since VII have been trying to be like it and VII was trying to be like VI? That is what a game series is. There are going to be similarities between them. Anyway, IX was trying more to be like the classic FF games than it was trying to be like VII.

I don't think that the series has necessarily been going downhill. The quality just fluctuates from game to game. For me, the order of quality is IX, VI, X, VII, VIII, XII.

Edit: I think XIII looks amazing, but of course we haven't seen much actual gameplay.
It's easier not to.

FFVII is horribly overrated. I thought it was pretty weak when I played through it.

For all of those who keep ranking X so damn high, go rent/buy/steal grandia 2, play it, then tell me what you think of 10, cause they are insanely similar via the story and *gasp* guess what, grandia 2 came first. It was like ffX ripped it off. Plus voice acting horrible, sphere grid annoying.

For order of quality of games for me
Tactics, 6/7, 9,8,12,10

Tactics IMO has the single best story out of the ff games, closely closely followed by 6. FF7 was an amazing game, which for when it was released and even now, has a solid story, solid characters, and it at the time set a level in which rpgs had to be made. 6 had a better story, better characters, and has much much higher replayability.

9 was addictively fun, much moreso than 6 or 7 but was really childish, but still alot more addictive. 8 i would rank on par with 6 and 7 if not for the horrible last two cd's of the game, the first two were insanely insanely well done. and 12 sucked outside graphics and battle system, and 10 was just plain horrible.

"i was four years old when i first played FF1 on the famicom"
ASHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHA
what a legend

ff9 had the best characters compared to any other ff, they all interacted with each other, the leads weren't emo fags that didn't know how to socially interact with other characters(re, 7;8)

FFX!
Love the music in that game.

The voice acting made me cringe though...

I liked FF8 too, even though it makes some of my friends cringe. Other than the draw system (which I didn't really mind at the time), I don't understand the hate.

Not a big fan of 9, 10, and 12 tho..
