6 and 4 may have the better plots, but 5 has that amazing job system.

4 >>> 5 = 6

Granted, FFIV is the greatest game of all time, so there's obviously going to be quite a gap between it and two middling entries in the series.

IMO 5's plot kind of suffers compared to the other two, but on the other hand the light heartedness was refreshing and the job system was phenomenal.

5 > 4 > 6

5 is so much fun to go back to simply because of the job system, 4 is all around great, and 6 while good I find myself uninterested after a while.

V is probably my favorite but everything is just so right in IVDS

VI is okay I guess and I don't really care for any version of IV but the DS one and probably its ports

Still working through 5 right now but I'm gonna go with 6>4>5.

6 has the best story, world, characters, all that. 4 is second place.

5 does have a great job system (and cute animations; I love how much people literally jump for joy) but everything else about the game is thusfar forgettable. Bland characters, no story to speak of (So far the plot consists almost entirely of the party repeatedly finding a method of transportation and immediately losing it), world looks just like 3, etc.

I agree with most of the posts saying that 5's story is not as good as the other two, it is a shame.

5 > 4 > 6.

It's tough because I like all of them, but 5 was my favorite. 4 wins probably because it is hellishly nostalgic to me.

6 > 4 = 5

6 is objectively the best in the series. 4 and 5 are decent, but not nearly as memorable. 5's only real saving grace is the job system, and everything else about it is pretty average. 4 was clunky even by the standards at the time. That menu interface was awkward as hell. The story isn't bad, but i got sick of the constant character resurrections.

VI and X are the pinnacles of the main series imo.

V is overrated as hell. There's a reason it wasn't localized when it came out, it's fucking boring as shit despite the great job system.

VI is easily the best. IV had a better story than V but V was more fun to play and had better graphics on the SNES.

I dunno, 4 was a good enough game that I don't imagine a lot of people have a real problem with a statement like that.

The way it is worded (which is typical for that user) makes it such a hot take that it can only be considered bait (which it is)

I like them all about even, but if I had to pick I would rank them VI > IV > V

I like playing V the best because I like the Job System, but 4 and 6 are just better games, IMO

That's how I feel as well. I may like playing 5 more than the others because of so many options, but I do admit that it isn't a better game than at least 6.

5 had the best gameplay of the 3 but terrible everything else okay I like Galuf and Faris but that's it

6 I think is straight better than 4 but the PSP version of 4 is better than 6.

I can agree with this. 6 outclasses 4 in pretty much every way. Not that 4 is a bad game, by any means. In fact, I really like it even. It's just that 6 upped the standard.

This. But to be fair I had 4 & 6 on SNES during the PlayStation era. Didn't try 5 until the PS2 era

6 > 5 > 4 for me. 4 just feels too limiting in terms of gameplay, it was always super hard for me to get into it. 5 and 6 give you more freedom with the gameplay which I love, and 6 has a better story than 5.

The PSP version of 4 let's you change your party (except for Cecil) and then also has two other FF4 games on it.

TAY has the largest playable cast in a FF game to date (not counting MMOs or tactics entries) and it has a Superboss that requires 3 parties of 5 to defeat.
