Nine! 9! IX! Nueve! Nonus! 1001!

Everything about the game design was completely retrograde. It would be like if instead of releasing the new Prius, Toyota just reintroduced the '79 Starlet.

Plus, the character design was hideous. I mean, look at this shit:

I won't bring up 10, 11, or 12 (or X-2) because I'd long since fallen completely out of love with JRPGs by the time they came out and thus I never even played them.

I've played the first nine (except for the Japanese FF3) and the only one I unequivocally hated was FF8. I didn't like FF2, but I didn't despise it either.

Meanwhile, anyone who answers this question with 4 or 6 is dead to me.

FFVIII I believe it was.

"OhMotherOfGodAbove, Please please don't make me do another hour of grinding for that spell-drawing gyyaaargh!" about sums it up.

Oh sure, you could work around that. But you shouldn't have to. And the plot twists made me want to cry...

"I'm a super-assasin-sniper. Trust me, I'll kill the target dead without bullets! And I'll do it a mile away!"
- five minutes later once the mission is underway and cannot be aborted - "I want my mommy! I haven't actually killed anyone, I'm just a bigmouthed pussy! This rifle of mine is just for show!"

Riight....?
Dear god I remember that moment. WHY would the Garden assign you a pussy gunman who fucking chokes on the job!? The school HAS to be run by retarded moogles...there's no other way.
Add in the convoluted Orphanage bit.

My choice, it's 8. I've played and beaten all FF's from 4 to 12. (Excluding 11, which is a MMORPG that only the Japanese play and all the side shit like X-2 which is, well, shit.)

8 is the lone game in the series that had virtually no redeeming value what-so-ever. A game system that's more broken than 2. Characters who are less than one dimensional and are forgotten after the end of the first disc (except for the leads). The least likable leads in a FF game ever in the form of a emo pussy and a skank. A story so schizophrenic and disjointed it seems like it was written by syphilitic monkeys on meth.

8 defines atrocious.

I swear to god it had one of the worst love stories too. It's like they hired some Disney reject to write it, fucking Rinoa, why couldn't Sephiroth Kill her instead.

Final Fantasy X, The voice acting combined with the dialogue hurt it more than the son of Ject ya'know, it should be noted that if you can change a characters name don't get voice acting, the son of Ject isn't smart, just remove the option and voice act in Tidus. Story line was a bit silly. The games real saving grace was the usage of Aeons and that they could level up and learn. That was cool, but that was all.

In short, the game felt like the average (stereotypical) model, all eye candy, no substance.

Though I hate to death the Vancian magic system that I-III use, VIII still manages to bug me, mostly for the total BS illogical outcomes (time travel? Don't you realize the repercussions?), and that Squall seems to have associated Cloud with emo-ocity, and it seems like all I hear about them now is "blah blah Final Fantasy characters are so emo I bet they cut themselves with their Compensation swords".

FF7 is good, but overrated and overused, FF8 sucks a big fat cocksicle, FF9 was great fun, FFX was brilliant, and FFX-2 just made my brain hurt. And that's where I stopped playing the series.

FFX was the worst out of the ones ive played (all but 1, 2 & 6.)

I really liked the feel of IX, but loved VII.
Mostly because of nostalgia id imagine.
Worse than V? Did you play V? It was horrendous.

FF8. hated the junctioning system. squall managed to be an even more unappealing character then cloud and plotholes much.
I don't know. Squall was kind of like Hiro Yuy from gundam Wing, socially retarded. It was entertaining in an awkward kind of way.

IX is probably the one I enjoyed the most for its characters and settings.Battle system was functional, and good enough to get the game through, but it was nothing really special. Still probably my favorite.

VII I like quite a bit, but I was dissapointed by the time I finished it the first time; I'm guessing all the BEST GAME EVER praise it was getting back when I first played it made me expect too much out of it. I played it a second time a year later and enjoyed it a lot more then.

Frankly, I think the one I enjoyed the least was FFVI. Not that it was bad, but I kinda had to force myself to finish it. I didn't find it very much engaging. It might be for the same reasons I didn't like VII so much the first time around, though, so I promised myself I'd play it again.

So far, I decided 5 was my least favorite.

The story felt a bit recycled. The characater had no developpement. Right after you've guessed what job to put some effort to, the game became cakewalk.
