Have to say. One thing missing on 15 is the fact we finally had the relatable size of summons in battle. Others tried but this game got the shear titan size down very well.

The best part about the music in 15 was collecting music from all the prior games and playing them as you drove around the map. Also, one of my favorite songs in the entire series is Otherworld from FFX. A bit of metal added to my favorite series of games. While other songs tug at the heartstrings, like Aerith's theme, Otherworld just gets you jacked. Only other one that comes close is One Winged Angel.

Every time FF11 and FF14 aren't included in a mainline list, Yoshi-P and Sakaguchi shake their head in disappointment.

Ff7 had the most heart wrenching scene... Meanwhile, Galuf and Celes going "are we jokes to you?"

Final Fantasy IV was the first I played in the series, and while we look back on it now and realize how silly a lot of the story is, when I was playing it at 12 years old, it was intriguing. I had never played anything like it before then and I fell in love with it instantly. I could talk for hours about how much there is to love about IV - X. At the time XI came out, I was a young adult just starting out on my own, so I couldn't afford a PC to play it on and that's where I lost touch with the series, but up until that point, Final Fantasy had given me so many fantastic memories. I even enjoyed Mystic Quest!

Forget Dissidia, with that thumbnail art Terra could be a guest fighter in Dead or Alive.

Ff12 was ahead of its time during the ps2 era.

I'm so sad that ff8 is as divisive as it is, because that just means it's very unlikely to get the remake treatment that 7 got. A remake like that would be a dream come true for my childhood self.

Best part of FFXIV: The story... Hands down. Easily one of the best rpg stories ever.

To me personally the track "To Zanarkand" is by far one of the most beautiful and tragic musical tracks in gaming i have ever heard, it get's to me every time i hear it just because it reminds me of the tragic story that FFX is.

Bless whoever drew that Terra fan art in the thumbnail

One more thing I'll add for Final Fantasy 15: Ardyn was probably the most compelling main villain Final Fantasy has had since about 6, or 7. He had a lot of depth as to how and why he went down the dark path he did... and his capacity to really mind-f*** with the heroes on a level that most villains hadn't really done before! The only main drawback being that he wasn't a multi-form boss like Zeromus, ExDeath, or Sephiroth. It's interesting how he starts out actually kind of likable early in the game, and then becomes increasingly creepy as the game progresses!

Correction: Kain wasn't the first dragoon. That was Richard in FF2. Also, the dark knight originated in FF2: Leon. That said, iconic signature moves didn't appear until later, like Jump and Darkness/Darkside. As you correctly said, much of the famous things in final fantasy started in FF2. 🙂

Great video and trip down memory lane. 😁 (That thumbnail image of Terra isn’t too shabby either. 👌)

Ff13 battle system, once mastered my my. It's a beautiful thing.

nothing beats golden era Final Fantasy (6,7,8,9)

FFV was also the first game in the series that introduced optional bosses, which later were known as weapons

What I like about the games I played in the series are : FF1: I'm a sucker for self-insert RPGs FF2: I don't know of another RPG on the NES that goes that deep on the story FF3: how it established series staples FF4: the characters FF5: the music FF6: *EVERYTHING* FF7: Midgar FF12: *ALMOST EVERYTHING* FF13: when the characters come to terms with their own conflict specifically Sazh and Hope FF15: the open world

Final fantasy XIII is my favorite, i love the world and the characters.

9 was my favorite game for 20 years until this year. I never understood 7 and why so many like it but now I'm 30 years old and truly appreciate 7 and the immense depth of all of the characters, history, and gameplay it has. 7 has finally revealed itself to me to be a true masterpiece that no other entry can come close to matching. The story is truly worthy of all the praise it gets and if you disagree, you probably have never truly absorbed it all.

FF13 has one of the best soundtrack in the franchise. Blinded by the light is one of my fav battle themes of all time.

Hearing Aerith's Theme and To Zanarkand got me teary eyed in the club rn

Things that turn me off with FF13 are actually the terms they use in the game. I know that JRPGs usually use their own terms to discribe their words. But I find FF13 is so confusing. You know, things like Falcie, L'cile or whatever. I mean, just keep it simple, Man. 😅

FFXV had the most natural feeling friendships. It felt like a bunch of guys going on a roadtrip and the conversations weren't always focused on something big. I think the sudden change of the original concept and time crunch ultimately hurt the game. FFXV's original concept is now being integrated into Kingdom Hearts 🙄.

Subscribed! Keep up the good work man

Another thing I love are the movies produced in an edge-cutting quality of graphics. I wish SE could do more on the movie as well.

3 and 5 will probably always be what FF is to me. A job-swapping adventure.

i completed FF1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 and 13. 4 is probably my favorite closely followed by 6.

Thank you for making this video💖💖💖 so nostalgic 🩷💜

the opera house was memorable in the world of balance, the opera house in the world of ruin just had a dragon. but the music there and Celes' theme is forever a memory. i really enjoyed ff15 and how it felt over all, the way the story wrapped up felt very sudden and quick, didnt really like that but over all i thought it was amazing. it felt like it was trying to touch back to final fantasy 6. also Dancing Mad goes hard as you ride around across the roads in ff15 :) loved kefka and celes' themes

Final Fantasy X. The game that basically made me buy THREE different consoles. I finally talked myself into buying a PS2 when it got it's first Final Fantasy game. After years of loving the Final Fantasy games on the SNES and then Playstation. Of course.. That kept me happy until.. The Remaster of FFX/FFX-2 was released on the PS3. Back to the shop to buy a PS3 and the game again. Which was all well and good... UNTIL that remaster was released on the PSVita. Hell, maybe it was released before the PS3 version? No idea. But as soon as I realised I could play FFX and FFX-2 on a portable.. "TAKE MY MONEY!!" Registered with the PSN and bought every Final Fantasy game available in the UK for the Vita. It's still sitting in a drawer to this day with all those games + Resident Evil 1/2/3 on the SD card. For those rare occasions that I can be bothered leaving the house. Luckily I already owned a high end PC by the time FFX was released for Steam. So at least I only had to pay for the game AGAIN!

Lmao no shame with that thumbnail and I'm here for it, absolute man of culture 👌😆

XIII’s soundtrack 🤤🤤🤤, come on!

cool to see soemthing positiv about FFXIII. But, i also liked how the story was told from the perspectiv of all character and not just Lightning, and the music is amazing. Blinded by Light is truly a piece of art.

Terra showing us the best parts of VI in the thumbnail

I have played 1, 4,5,6,7,8,9 and 10. I play 14 although not as much as I used to. I recently bought the pixel remaster collection on Steam to play all first 6, then I plan to play again 7,8,9 and 10, and continue with the others. Stranger of Paradise is not main, but it tells a story of FF1 from the eyes of a villain and it is absolutely genius.

I loved most FF games, and I’ve played all of the mainline series and most of the spin offs. The ones I did not like and therefore didn’t complete were 8, 13, and 15. My favorites were 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 10-2, and 12. My #1 favorite is 10. I adore the pre-13 games and I’ve played most of them multiple times. Sadly, I’m not confident that the series will ever find the magic again, that made pre-13 games so beloved.

Final Fantasy VI (or FFIII from the original SNES) is my favorite FF game and one of my favorite ALL TIME RPGs

My fav are 9, 10, and 7, love 9 the most cause of the interesting fantasy like characters ❤

My first and no 1 FF is 5, thats why I love any games especially FF with job system

Great video!

No mention about the music genius of Masayoshi Soken. He might not be as popular as Uematsu. But people should listen to his music. It is amazing.

Final Fantasy XIII. Uh... It fells good everytime you pause or turn off the game.

Please do one for the spin offs sequels and MMOs. Pleaseee

I clicked because of the thumbnail. You got me, okay?

Terra's theme is the sound of nostalgia. I use it as my morning alarm.

FFXV i played on covid and made me cry like a baby in the end, i just love this game

Man I really really need to go back and play FF6 properly. Played it off and on for months at a time on emulator and only got 2/3 through and odn't remember a lot of it, because I wasn't really paying a lot of attention like I did with 7 and up.

11:33 YESSSSS!!! YESSSSSS!! So glad to hear the right pronounciation of his name for once! I'm a bit tired of hearing "Tide-us" everywhere just because the English voice actor randomly declared it's the right one when he's wrong (especially since even an official English video trailer of the game pronounces it like you do, and that's how the word is supposed to be pronounced, since it comes from the word "Sun" in Okinawan). I know each to their own and no one cares but somehow hearing Tidus being rightly pronounced here made me super happy.

everytime i see a list like this i always feel like giving ff13 a second chance

Ff10 best thing is Auron...

To Zanarkand actually got me choked up as background noise…

Looks at thumbnail…. “I’m pretty sure Terra wasn’t stacked like that…” lol

I don't know the games that well other than final fantasy remake. I can't imagine another game holding a candle to this.

I love ff8 by far the best. The only thing I would change it an update to the graphics. I know it was remastered already but I'd love to see not only the in-game graphics improved but cutscenes as well with the addition of some voices. Otherwise it's perfect. Just perfect. Down to the last minute detail.

Man I'm ok with Terra having a boob job WOW

Kain was not the first time we got the dragoon class. Ricard in II was a Dragoon

Technically Final Fantasy 2 introduced Dragoons (in the case of Ricard), but they wouldn't have the jump ability they are known for until Final Fantasy 3. Just thought I'd point that out. Maybe everyone thought Kain was the first dragoon due to Final Fantasy 2 not being released in the U.S at the time and 4 was called 2 back then.

I liked every final fantasy except 8 and 13 part 1

FFIV: I like how the characters are connected to their classes, which makes the cast more unique. FFVI: The storytelling is perhaps the strongest in the series. Just pulls you in from the start. FFVII: The world-building makes everything feel connected. FFVIII: Still my favorite cutscenes in the series. FFIX: Some of the most endearing characters in the franchise. FFX: I love the complexity and nuances of the cast. FFXIII: Amazing soundtrack. Right up there with the best. FFXV: May seem minor, but I like how the characters advance in age later in the game. Feels like an unexplored concept for the most part in the series.

Best parts, (in my opinion) 1: It is possibly one of the worst games due to its sheer age, but it did introduce several ideas and mechanics that stuck around. More than that, while the plot and world feels empty sometimes, you do feel like you're up against enemies far larger and stronger than yourself most of the time, which feels rewarding when you beat it. 2: It was the beginning of having a deeper story in the games, along with introducing staples such as the Chocobo, Cid, and the first Dragoon, though in name only. 3: The job system, while finicky and bad at points, laid the groundwork for other class systems down the line. As well as having the first proper dragoon, one with jump (I think?). 4: The game's ATS laid the groundwork for many games in the future, its focus on story set the precedent for many other games in the future. 5: The class system has been refined well, allowing one to mix and match and find a playstyle they enjoy, though it may not be the most effective. Along with its fun tone and sense of humor, the music and scenes really makes you feel like these are 4 friends who have set out on an adventure. 6: 6's focus on storytelling and wide variety of options is quite unique, the esper system allows you to use the various characters without limiting them too heavily. 7: 7's materia system isn't too difficult to understand, and can allow a player to choose to use a weaker weapon or accessory simply because it allows them more options in battle, which could be far more valuable than simply having a stronger weapon. The story is complex, the villain's motives are strange, but almost understandable in a way, yet they still come across as despicable and evil in spite of that. 8: 8's leveling system is... controversial, yet the junction system isn't too difficult to grasp (I did, though I was an adult when I first played). It rewards the player for not just mindlessly beating things up, being careful with what you do and say, and how you go about things as well. 9: The cast of 9 is wonderful, one of the better ones I feel. I just want to hug Vivi, Quina is lovably weird, Zidane is a lovable perv, when Steiner is the butt of a joke it doesn't feel arbitrary or mean either, which is really good. Many games fall victim to that, but not here. 10: The battle system (whatever it was called) is one of the best turn-based systems Square Enix has implemented, allowing for clever strategy and forcing you to be careful and aware of what and who is next, especially for the tougher fights, but it doesn't feel unfair even at its worst. The spheregrid is kind of... odd, not bad, but not amazing? I liked it, but I also am in the camp of "big numbers go brrrr" so... 11: Never played. 12: The world feels big, vast, with deep history. You don't often feel like big grand heroes who can take down gods with ease, which while some may like that, others may not. Still, might be for you. The license board is an interesting idea, though I personally feel it could have been executed better, I do understand the idea and can appreciate what they were going for. There's a lot of nuance to the characters, no one in the party feels truly "good" initially, but they all get time to show their true colors. (except for Vaan and Penelope, but this is about positives not negatives) I haven't played the 13 trilogy, 14, or 15.

XV's story doesn't deserve even to be on the fridge. The map, however, gold star. What saved the game for me was the lore/theories fans speculated. We got very few hints abt the world's gods/esses, but the statues and landmarks peppered throughout got the theorizers connecting the dots. I love the work and ideas they come up with.

Why did you skip mentioning the soundtrack for FF XIII? Its miles better than the tracks of FF XII.

IV did not introduce dragoons. Dragoons were in both II and III.

Kuya sobrang nakaka relate po yung story mo ang galing ng narration mo taga manila ka din po?

Really nice overview. Back then i started with FF7, so in terms of nostalgia this will always be my number one. But i also loved 8 and 9. FF10 i guess is overall my number one, it's a masterpiece. FF12 was great, too, and after getting used to it i really liked the gambit system. FF13 had, in my opinion, the best battle system with the paradigms. The battles were just so fast and fluent. FF15...to say it dramatically "My story ends here." 😅 I started playing it multiple times and i really like the style and story, but the battle system is just too hectic for me. The pause mode doesn't make it better. Maybe one fateful day i will pull through...it's sad because i really like everything else. I guess this will also be the reason why i'm not really hyped about FF16. It looks great, but not with that battle system. FF7R was stunning and i often were in tears because how beatiful it is. But, again, the active battle system is not for me. Luckily with the classic mode it was way better, although it only came with the easy difficulty setting which made the game too easy (nowadays you can set classic mode and difficulty still normal). Honorable mentions: of course i also liked FF10-2 and FF13-2/3 😊 And finally i started with 1-6 recently. I always wanted to play them to see what it's all about, so a week ago i started with FF1 Pixel Remaster. Really nice, brings you back to the old days. I'm close to getting the fourth crystal, so quite close to the end. There are many great games and game series out there, but Final Fantasy will always be my favorite ❤

That thumbnail looks like as if Tifa cosplaying as Terra... (why just now that I realized they both names' starts with the letter T...)

FFX one of the best games ever!

It's funny since you listed the action system in 2 and Blitzball in X in the worst things list too

Why not include FF11 and FF14 they are great games too and at time of this video FF14 is about to celebrate its 10th anniversary since it’s rebirth

Grap a chocobo.. man I love me some MFC (Midgard's Fried Chocobo)

Imagine putting FF7 Remake in the thumbnail but not in the actual video

You put Terra in the thumbnail... I come.

FF III introduced the dragoon job class before FF IV.

Cid was mentioned in FF 1, so you COULD say he started there

Final Fantasy 8 has some of the most beautiful scenarios, scenes and musics in the whole series. Even the story is one of the best

Yes but you left out two of the best ones (11 and 14) Which are in fact mainline games

My top 3 is VIII, X, VII

All these years I've been pronouncing Tidus name wrong lol I thought it's pronounced as "tai-dus"

Eruyt village is the best track in FFXII.

Just came here to check on FF8 …. ❤ ❤❤ there is Ultima power/magic in all FF….. But there is only one Ultimecia 😊…. FF7 with its wrenching schene lol what the hell is that 😅…. is one of those over popular things that i don’t get it “….. like Starbucks, New York…..”

I know I’m going to get crap for this because it’s not included, as is stated, but I think for me FF14 has the best story of any final fantasy game. I honestly didn’t believe an MMORPG could have a good story because they never had but I started playing a year ago and got all the way to the end of the story (Endwalker) and it now is my #1 FF story and had the best villains. Aside from Kefka that is :)

i dont know. i think its kinda sad to not see 11 or 14 as mainline games. if your not gunna cover them you should say so in the vid not in the comments

The best thing from each final fantasy game? Nobuo Uematsu!

How can you talk about FF15's amazing soundtrack and NOT mention the final version of Hellfire during the battle with Ifrit? That soundtrack is absolutely incredible.

Decisive battle was 6 not 5. Dragoons were introduced in 2 not 4. You should have expected this

V is my favorite hands down Ex-Death is treated like a real threat long before he shows up and continues to be one until the final battle.

Final fantasy IX and VI is the best out of all final fantasy I’ve played every game

1 - Open world discovery nature of the story 2 - Transition to story focus games helped the franchise in the long run 3 - Best job system hands down 4 - First true great FF story 5 - Gilgamesh! 6 - Final dungeon and boss are the best to this day 7 - Focus on a strong Protagonist character arc 8 - Triple Triad 9 - Best World building hands down 10 - Best storyline in any FF game 12 - Biggest and most expansive open world (even if it's area based) 13 - Fang my wife 15 - Party dynamic was a true highlight.

I really wish I could play Earth 2.0's version of FF15.

Only ff x makes me cry😢

Bro you said the best thing about FFII was also the worst thing

@10:52 its actually pronounced "eye-fa" tree. Its spelled with 2 "i"s. Iifa tree.

I'm very happy you didn't include ff7r thank God lol

You left out Final Fantasy Tactics 😢

Saying blitzball was addictive is wild

FFXI and XIV are not on the list: *Man* ... (but I completely understand, don't get me wrong)

My favourite is ff12 then lightning returns.

Bro really praised everything he complained about in the other video 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
