Necropost but you forgot FFT?! Blasphemy, even though Tactics Ogre is superior to it.
Also, XII was one of the few FFs where you didn't exactly save the world. All you really did was stop a politician from starting a continental war based on the doctrines of a previous monarch whilst wresting power away from the gods in a Promethean fashion.
I laughed a little when i got to his X Review, how he hated 10 more than any other FF but it seems like he hated pretty much every single Final Fantasy, Except maybe 7 and 8. and his complaint for 8 was cloud is emo. (Impartial =?= Emo).
Not that i mock Byrth's choices, only found it slightly funny.
I also managed to enjoy Tactics Advance I/II... The Crystal Chronicle games for the DS were really fun with friends too, to me anyway... I enjoyed the crap out of them playing them with my brothers.
Okay.
I actually liked 5, 6, 7, 8, and most of 9 even though in retrospect 9's plot was pretty incoherent. The series in general is still incredibly overhyped though. It suffers from poor plot design, bad writing, and worse translations. There are better options out there, and if we have any luck at all there will be RPGs to come that make the SNES/PS1 FFs look as bad as the NES FFs. Judging by 12/13, I doubt those RPGs will be coming from SE and wearing the FF brand.
9's plot was fine.
Until Necron. God knows what the fuck happened there.
If i were you, This answer would mean you're emo!
I'm personally way more a fan of Tales games... They aren't winning any awards for originality, But, shockingly, I play RPG's a lot more for the gameplay/playability than story. Story is important, but if the game is unplayable due to just over-all crappy gameplay, it ruins it much quicker for me, than say, not having a revolutionary story or an original story.I actually liked 5, 6, 7, 8, and most of 9 even though in retrospect 9's plot was pretty incoherent.

Final Fantasy is a big series but I agree it may be a little over-hyped. I still enjoyed half of them. Can safely say Tactics Advanced 1/2 were some fun, the Crystal Chronicle games were nice if you had friends... the gamecube one still makes me cringe on how stupid it was to play co-op with it, but despite its gimmick i had a blast playing it with my brothers. The DS ones are excellent. I like the Magic-Stacking in that game.
I kinda liked 8's draw system, Though it was tedious... almost all RPGs have some form of grinding in them, At least in FF8 your enemies levels were around your own, so leveling up wasn't a necessary grind, and Drawing took its place :X?
Drawing was annoying if you had any mild form of OCD which meant you wanted to keep your junctioned magics at 99 all the time.
I always found most magic pretty worthless compared to physical, so never had any problems not casting it. O_O
If you missed it, the point was that Cloud was from FFVII and Squall is FFVIII. I agree that magic in FFVIII was pretty useless, though. I definitely never used it for damage, but I forget if I used it otherwise.
I like when RPGs have good gameplay, but an RPG with a shitty story and good gameplay is a lot like a well-written book that I don't want to read. There's a reason I play RPGs, and it's not because I like terrible characters and porno-quality dialogue/plot development.
Tanaka hard at work, no doubt deciding which Vana'Cafe foods to nerf for being too delicious.

Man he looks haggard. I can't decide if he has little girls or little boys hidden in his trunk.
Yeah, if you slapped a pit stained wife beater and a pair of basketball shorts on him, that pic would definitely scream meth addict.
5mins this took...Man he looks haggard. I can't decide if he has little girls or little boys hidden in his trunk.

Tanaka gonna give you some punishment for not gettin me a cold beer!

Edit: Made this look much better...

Magic in 8 was for junctioning to stats and that's it. There were two exceptions Aura and Meltdown.
