Square Enix have been busy porting some of the biggest entries in the Final Fantasy franchise to every platform going as of late (Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster JUST came out on Switch and Xbox One), making it the best time for new fans to jump on board this JRPG behemoth.
Each mainline entry (separated by their Roman numerals) is set in its own universe, meaning you can begin anywhere, which is great. But with so many titles, it can be hard to know where to begin. That's where we come in.
Ignoring direct sequels, spin-offs and the online multiplayer games XI and XIV, Digital Spy are here to tell which Final Fantasy games are the best, and which are the worst.
The tiny green slasher villain returns in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, and is as frightening as ever.
The way it was handled was so dumb. One shots in melee...your teammates are to ostupid to get away from its attack. So you most often end up alone in a certain fight.
Gary Green said: We’re finding ourselves in a similar position with the Pixel Remaster edition of Final Fantasy IV as we were with Final Fantasy III since, once again, we’ve received a slightly upscaled, more vibrant port of the original game when there’s already an expanded 3D remake available. As such, we’re playing a game which, even after its long-awaited release, still lives very much in the shadow of its remake.
If only they didn't screw ps4 owners over with a physical release. I'd have ran through this in a heartbeat.
The first one I played, it was the one that made me fall in love with JRPGs and is still my favorite to this day. A masterpiece

I sometimes wonder how much effect which game was the first you played in a series has. With FF my first was FF7 and that's my favourite closely followed by 8. I enjoyed 9 at the time but I prefer 10 now and I haven't liked any since although I haven't tried 15 because of not liking 12 or 13.
I often see people say that Demons Souls is the best game that From have made but Dark Souls was my first of theirs and for me it's a much better game. I think whichever game it is that introduces you to a series is special to you and clouds your objectivity.
My top: ff14 post arr > ff6 for characters, story, music and art > ff4 > ff3 my first > mobius cuz fun. 8, 11 bad mmo, 12, 13, 15 are least favorite.
