I'll at bare minimum take 13 over 2, 3, and 15 without a doubt.

Bottom four would be 15 < 2 < 3 < 13

2 and 3 (NES version, this is important) are very legit games, I would never rank them below FF: Death Magnetic and FF: Lulu Edition. Have you ever played a SaGa game? FF2 in particular makes a ton more sense when you realize it isn't just the second Final Fantasy -- it's also the first ever SaGa game in disguise, predating Final Fantasy Legend, and it's exactly the right kind of game in that context.

EDIT: Also, it's unironically the most important of the NES final fantasies, historically. FF2 is where the story focus of FF really originated in, where dragoons were born, IIRC it was the first to have chocobos...like a lot of what we consider fundamental FF thing came from it. Truly a game ahead of its time in a lot of ways.
