What FF Games do you like/dislike/in-between?

[IceAndFire]

What might be some reasons for having the opinion? Do you think you might have 2nd thoughts later? Also, regarding FF games you haven't tried, which ones do you think you'd like/dislike etc..?

I dislike FFXI and IV because I dislike MMORPG's in general. Other than that, I like them all. Some more, others less, but all of them have their pros and cons.
FFXII is my least favorite one, because the characters were just awful,though the excellent gameplay made up for that somewhat.
In general, I prefer FFVII - FFX to newer games, since the newer games strayed, for the lack of a better word, from their roots and became more action-y, but that is a trend in the games industry these days.

11 and 14, I prefer a single player and offline experience. It is annoying to be forced to connect online. Also 11 and 14 are games you wont be able to introduce to your grand kids. Online games are obsolete when the servers are shut down.

I really like Final Fantasy 9 and feel it is underated-but a lot of people are catching on to this game as of late. I think the art style is great and the characters are great as well-and living in this victorian world for awhile with the classical music is great. I have heard that this is the Final Fantasy creator, Hironobu Sakaguchi's favorite game also !

I dislike Final 1 to 5 because of its poor graphics. It looked like a toy playing to me even though it's still fun to play but the poor graphics killed my interest in the game perpetually. But really love Final Fantasy 9 and 10, I can never get tired of playing it because of the plot and characters in the game. It's graphics and soundtrack are exceptional.

Offline games are quite interesting because they can be played without having to worry about internet connection and data subscription. Sometimes we have serious poor network here and it affects my gaming because I cannot connect to the internet.

Don't judge a game from it's graphics. 6 have awful graphics but it is regarded as the greatest game of the franchise. 1 to 4 actually have 3 remake in DS and 3ds.

Since you love Final Fantasy 9.... I want to inform you that 3 and 4 have remakes for ds and 3ds. The graphic style is final fantasy 9 but they are not midgets in cutscenes.

I find zodiac age to be not so interesting now that I have seen other titles. I think depending on how the other games did well in between. i guess we kind of have developed the taste. So it differs with each one of us.

I know it's a bit too harsh to judge a game on its graphics alone but I seriously cannot help it because it's part of the things that are very important to me when I'm reviewing and recommending any game to anyone. If the graphics is poor, I'm almost certainly ruling it out.

I didn't liked the zodiac age. I find some of such games to be nothing bug waste of time. And I can tell you that some of such games are not even worth the effort.

I have always loved the idea of playing offline games and with the players not worrying about internet connection before being able to play. This is one thing which is dislike about games that are produced for us gamers lately. We have to buy the game and still pay for internet service to be able to play the games.

I play some games online, but the thing that I noticed with FF 11 in particular is that it takes long to load and that can he boring for me when the network is not loading fast. Also, because of the environment that I am in, it is not always easy to connect to the internet to play the game.

I never had this problem of Final Fantasy 11 taking too long to load or connect. Maybe it's your network provider that is feeding you with poor service which makes the game take longer to connect. Try changing your location or network pro and see how it goes.
Good luck.

I think many folks who can't afford expensive internet. They seem to be choosing the games which has the internet bandwidth consumption. So it always has some of those issues. I guess we learn from the experience and so choose offline games for that reason. Not all the time online games are worth it.

If Final Fantasy 16 is online like 11 and 14, I am going to skip it. I hate multiplayer games, especially if the players have microphones. 12 year old players with microphones are annoying. Online gaming also needed premium internet connection which I can't afford at this moment. 16 better be an offline game.

You are right, not everyone can afford paying for data bundle every now and then especially when most of these young people are not working, so having the fund to subscribe would be a problem, which is why most preferred offline games.

Let's hope it doesn't get to be online version that the Final Fantasy 16 would come with because I wouldn't want you not to enjoy playing the game. I think the game producers should make arrangements for both online and offline versions in a particular FF game.

I haven't developed any negative attitude with any of them of now.

It's good getting to see a good appreciator of the game who isn't complaining about one thing or another. It's very hard to find gamers that are there for the love alone with no hate.
