9 is the worst because it's not 7 and it didn't have triple triad

For me, it's easily 8. I love both of the others. 8 was the first Final Fantasy that I didn't enjoy.

8 is probably in the top 3 worst FF games period.

9 doesnt have triple triad and it isnt as good as 7 so it loses by default

CE is actually on point here. Easily the most boring story and the most uninteresting cast. Everytime I try I get like 10 hours in and am like "I just don't care about these people or what's going on". I played them all in their prime too

the first 2 disks are great but everything kind of falls apart on disk 3
disk 2 dropped a really dumb plot twist that was mostly ignored by the player because it was followed by the best part in the game the garden fight.

once it sunk in on disk 3 its like "wow that was a dumb twist" then everything is rushed
zell, questis and irvine stop developing as characters (if you read her diary selphie actually keeps developing but in optional content)

and the romance between squall and rinoa jumps ahead by like 10 steps to get them to where the story wants them to be rather then where they were at naturally

8 was an absolute mess. The first disc was fantastic, but the gameplay and story just completely breaks down as it goes along.

Eh. I can look beyond the story. While I wasn't invested in the story, the gameplay was still the most engaging of the three to me.

Eh, to each their own.

Never played 9 but I feel like I would vote for it anyway because I have way too many fond memories of 8 and 7 is a masterpiece.

Thats my exact reaction to X, even though I know were talking about PS1 titles. Easily the worst FF in general.

And thats with me saying a lot since I dont invest in story and characters too much. Video games are interactive and meant to be that first and formost. Story/plot is easily the last thing I consider in how good a game is to play

They needed to keep the military stuff going and the war between gardens rather than the bonkers sorcerer stuff.

Definitely, each their own cause I couldn't agree with that less either >_<

That one has one of my favorite battle systems in the series lol. The story is overrated but I still like it enough.

FF7 is the worst PS1 FF. And it's still great. Just not as great as the other two.

Of the others, I'd say I rank FF8 higher than FF9, but I can definitely see this being more related to personal situations than the quality of the game itself - FF8 was one of the games I grew up with; FF9 I didn't play until significantly later and even to this day I've only played it twice, and only completed it once. FF8 on the other hand, I've played through at least 6-7 times, including a challenge run (kind of a "No GF Lite" - I only disallowed summoning GFs or junctioning magic to stats; everything else, including junctioning magic to elemental / status, was allowed) and a playthrough of a "hard mode" hack, specifically the Playstation version of FF8 Requiem - which on a side note, turned a kinda-too-easy game into one hell of a challenge).

Of course, this is all a moot point, since both SNES and PS2 have an FF each that are superior to anything in the PS1 lineup - FF6 and FFX respectively. (The latter being the best FF of all, IMO.)

Easily VII, which is still one of the greatest games of all time. Final Fantasy 9 was tied with a Tactics for best, IMO, closely followed by VIII.

I feel like a lot of casual gamers didnt get how to play FF8 and just ragged on it.

A lot of people place FFVII on a pedestal because it was the first 3D game and they went all out on it. Same with Ocarina of Time.

I hated 8. It's a shame when the card minigame is better than the actual game.

By far VIII. VII is great but a tad overrated, IX is overall the best Final Fantasy and aside from Disc 1, Triple Triad, and the Doom Train scenario VIII kinda sucks.
