Which version of Final Fantasy should I play?

[Timothy]

I played Final Fantasy in the past and now I am wanting to get back with it.
Can anyone tell me which version of Final Fantasy should I play at this time? and why?

I suggest FFVI. That was the first version of Final Fantasy I've played.

Play all versions from FF1 to FF15. It is always a good thing to play the series right from the beginning. I would recommend that.

I think if you have never played before then start from FF 7. It's one good game. And from this version onwards you'd find plenty of interesting titles. And rest of the games are good to start too.

I suggest starting from FF VII and making it to the latest, FF XV. I haven't played all of them, but the game's popularity really have been skyrocketing during this time. I also suggest FF VI If you want to experience some of the most memorable moments of the title.

It depends if you want to play with PS, desktop or android version. Since I only play FF on my smartphone, I will recommend you play FF 15 versions like a new empire.

I like playing with my smartphone and I still enjoy the game although not so many people like playing FF with a phone.

I would say that no two Final Fantasy's are the same and they all have different playing styles and new characters as well. Also you have to consider all the remakes of these different games as well-so there are a lot of great Final Fantasy's out there. I would check the review below for some great advice-in where to start your game play.

Can you share some screenshots for this version?

Of course I want to play on desktop because I have a large monitor, so it will be more attractive to play on desktop instead of a smartphone.

You can try any version of the final fantasy that you haven't played yet because it is all worth it. But I will recommend to you the ff7 on psp. You can enjoy playing it in a android phone, just download emulator to your device or if you have the psp, it's better.

FF 7 would be my best version that you should try or play with. Base on my experience it is the best of all, every versions are great but this one is the greatest. Go try it yourself if you don't believe me.

I still love playing Final Fantasy IX. For me, it the most laid back among the rest and I really love the plot.

I would recommend playing Final Fantasy 7. It was the first Final Fantasy game I've ever played and IMO it's the best. It has an awesome story and plenty of great mini games(I loved breeding and racing chocobos). But each game is very different from each other and everyone has their own opinions on what is good and what is bad

This game also has a lot of spin-offs(and a movie) so you can play them if you liked it and want more.

I don't know which of them you like, I love all of them I really can't choose which I will prefer, I will go with final fantasyV. You can start again from there.

I doubt you will have enough time to play all of them. The thing choosing a version to play first will save our time and we can have more interesting if playing on best version.
Anyway, if we can play all versions then it is good because we can know which version is the best FF game.

 

[Heatman]

There are several options available for you to choose from when it comes to taking a pick from the stock of Final Fantasy games. But I would recommend any series from Final Fantasy 9 upwards. You are going to enjoy playing from that section well. Have fun mate.

Well, which FF did you play ( and did you actually like it ) ? It's kind of hard recommending anything if we don't know that.
Since I got the impression that you're a younger gamer, you should probably skip anything pre-FF7. But then again, that might not be fair from me since I haven't actually played FF6 and earlier, and those games might have aged better than I think.
