I've tried mulitiple times to get into these games and beat it, but I'm wondering - which one should I try to play first. The good ones, the ones where you run in a straight line, or the MMORPGs. Which one is your favorite?
The games are all so different. It can be a difficult series to jump into.Cyncial_Huggy said:I've tried mulitiple times to get into these games and beat it, but I'm wondering - which one should I try to play first.

When your endorsement of a title is an ultimatum between the two worst games in the series, it's time to put them both up and play Persona 4 instead : PSniper Team 4 said:XIII. Okay, this one gets a lot of crap. And rightly so. Yes, for a good chunk of the game, you are going to be running down a straight path. Yes, the characters aren't as great--and Hope is downright annoying--as they should be. Yes, the plot is kind of dumb, even for a Final Fantasy game. But with all that said, I STILL think this game is better than XII. At least I can remember who these characters are, what their motivations are for doing things, and what the plot of the game is about. To me, this was a step back in the right direction for Final Fantasy after XII completely derailed it. Is is perfect? No. Should you start with it? Heck no. But if you have to choose between XII and XIII, I'd vote for XIII.
IV was the first FF that really engaged me(even it wasn't the first one I beat) and I love V for different reasons. The biggest complaint against IV is that it's difficult and you really can't do much more then just grind to overcome. It probably has the highest difficulty curve of any of the post 8-bit games(The first 3 games could be anywhere from brutal to mega-super-brutal). Which may or may not be appealing to you depending on how you feel about JRPG's in general.Fox12 said:IV- Probably the best retro title in the series. VI is okay as well. IV had some strong character moments and a pretty interesting story. The game was re-released on the Gameboy and PSN, and was remade with modern graphics and voices on the DS. If you're a retro fan, start here.
1. I like that tower defense game - My Life as a Darklord - better.Roboshi said:FF crystal chronicles my life as a king; not a real recommendation but I just like to bring it up for having possibly the longest videogame name in english audiences.
