Why do people even debate this? It’s clearly the best one. And the best game ever made.
it has some damn good music thats for sure
>>731112636E33 is the best game ever made
>>731112769lol
>>731112636FF6 and FF8 fags live in eternal seethe because they know FF7 mogs. it's usually an FF6 shitter when you see a bait thread.
>>731112925yeah that was my thought is VI in particular is so obviously inferior in a lot of ways
Thirty years later and the social commentary is still relevant.
>>731112925The story in FF6 is just not that memorable.
>>731112636what's the best way to play ff7 these days? I've been having an itch for a good jrpg
>>731112636>unc slopMiss me with that outdated shit unc, Remake and Rebirth low diffs
I cry everitimehttps://youtu.be/ujrn-yfo8Ts
>>731112636>Why do people even debate this?1. People like debating, and 4channers love arguing.2. There is a vast difference between the worlds of 7 8 and 9 which makes it easy to prefer one over the others.9>7>8
>>731112925>>731113071>>731113135VI is my favorite, but VII is just as good. My top 3 = VI, VII, and IV. Runner-up is V.>FF6 and FF8 fags live in eternal seethe because they know FF7 mogsFF8 fags barely exist
8 is just better in every way. I get the love it/hate it of the junction system. 10 is also vastly superior. 7 is still very good. 7 loses out because it pivots the plot 25% of the way in to something dramatically worse.
>>731113173Just emulate the original dont be a fag
>>731112636>no job systemNot a real FF game.
>>731113541>only in 2 mainline games (ff1 has classes, can't change besides promoting)>FF3 and FF5 (and X-2) are the only real FF games
>>731113173Emulate via PSCX2 or mod the Steam version. Follow this guide for the latter:https://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=21345
>>731112636You’re right it’s clearly in a league of its own
>>731112925VI and VII both have a lot of mechanical issuesplay Brave New World and New Threat
>>731112705For me, it's Jenova Absolute.
7 revitalized the genre for sure and set the standard for JRPGs going forward.It's not a top 5 final fantasy tho.
bit of a bummer how FFX combat is a massive improvement over ATB because the FF7 feel is just an old square game with maxxed out budget, they had something great going on but they bought onto their own hype and learned every wrong lesson from this game and now we depend on Atlus not milking Persona 5 until 2040 because Square thinks jrpgs don't sell and would never dare to give a 30 million dollar budget to a new one unless it's Dragon Quest
>>731112925Reminder that the only "arguments" FF6 ever had were "Cloud is emo" and "Sephiroth is a momma's boy". And they give Kefka waaaaaaay too much credit. Apparently he "became a god" and "destroyed the world", but the world was mostly intact and he went down like a bitch in the end anyway.
Xenogears is so much better it's almost crazy
>>7311126364 is the best one, though
>>731113729I know what I said.
>>731113729if x-2 counts then so does jacks game
In the early to mid 00s the "cool" thing to do was hate FFVII because it was so popular. It's clearly one of the greatest
>>731112769Second best.
>>731114165>"Sephiroth is a momma's boy"It's not that he's just a momma boy. He's just pointless. He's only present at the very end of the game.
>>731113173Emulate with DuckStation.
it might as well be a visual novel. you just mash a from start to finish, no brainpower or decision making ever happens in the entire fucking game
>>731115348Kefka being directly or indirectly was always the main antagonist of the game and went down as one, in VII Sephiroth was always a figment of Cloud's memories and the real antagonist (Hojo) went almost unceremoniously. VI has better cast but VII has overall better story and thematics. I still prefer VI over VII but I can entertain the argument of VII being better.
>>731113173The PC version saves you unnecessary tedium and let you enjoy the game without guardrails.
>>731113738This looks fucking gross.
>>731115626Yeah Jenova was also a larger villain than Sephiroth but largely went unexplained and just popped up as a progress checkpoint in the game. FF7 story just crumbles post-Midgar imo and that's why all the side stories are just more enjoyable and impactful (Rocket Town, Barret story, etc.)
>>731116017What's gross about it?
>>731112925Actually people who like 6 or 7 universally like the other, and will like either 8 or 9 after that with more divisive opinions towards those two. The first five classic games feel closer together, and the next four feel like their own group along with Chrono Trigger. The real debate is whether people like the classic dungeon crawlers or the cinematic adventures more.
>>731112705For me, it's Anxious Heart.
>>731112925I remember when people used to swear how FF6 was so much better than 7 and how 7 was overrated and ruined Final Fantasy. It seems that mentality either died or very little still believes that.
>>731112636it's nostalgia slop for millennials, that's all.
>>731116845I think 4 through 9 is the peak of the series, love them all. Though the NES and PS2 games are still great (haven't played the later FFs after those).
>>731119127It was always a loud minority saying that, most FF6 fans love 7 too.
