Which Final Fantasy did you hate most??

[Voltaire Adams]

Seems like a general theme here, but for me it's also X-2. I just couldn't get behind the game at all. Such a slap in the face to how good FFX was...

I think it would have been better if TC had chosen a different title for the thread because in his/her opening statement they say, "which FF you disliked the most". This isn't entirely on the same level as hate. For me, I don't hate or dislike any FF, I, like others have said, like certain FFs less.

I'll start with a common choice: FF X-2. The battle system was fun and the changes they made to the job system were good for the most part. The story had a good foundation but something about it turns me off. Perhaps it is that most of the story isn't mandatory or that it is not serious enough, I don't mind humor but this game seemed a bit childish with it.

My second least liked Final Fantasy is Final Fantasy VI. There is a lot of good or great things in that game, however the plot/story disappears in the middle of the game (World of Ruin) and becomes all about character development. Continuing with the character development, about half of the cast was developed greatly, the other half was not so special and was pretty thin or downright non-existent - granted there are two optional characters. But it seems in Final Fantay VI they took all the characters they possibly could that would be fighting against the bad guys and made them playable characters instead of making some NPC - which this game's supporting cast is poor due to that. The lacking of any interaction or scenes with Kekfa also hurts the World of Ruin; Kefka turns into a very cliche and unremarkable villian in the second-half. Now I'll keep playing this game and trying to see the greatness behind the World of Ruin however after two playthroughs I haven't seen anything.

I'm also starting to like Final Fantasy IV less while I've been playing the DS version. The use of cheap plot devices such as how they reveal Golbez's goals, "Bwahahaha, you defeated the dolls. As reward here is what I plan to do. Now I fight you". But what I dislike the most from that game is the cheap/fake deaths (Cid being the worst) they use to make room for a new party member or to get rid of a party member. As somebody put it, Final Fantasy IV treats death like the Looney Tunes; Final Fantasy IV needed to learn a thing or two about death from Final Fantasy II which did it right - the people actually died.

I don't really hate any FF-game, but I strongly dislike FFX-2's anime/übergirly-style. My friend wanted me to buy it for her as a birthday-present, well, I bought it and she has yet to finish it. I told her she'd dislike it, but nooo, of course she won't listen.

Dissidia had crappy character interractions and the characters were pretty much raped. But as it had pretty art based on Amano's work (wow, I actually admitted Nomura did a good job) and cool remixes from old FF-songs, I can't really complain too much.

FFX had crappy voice acting, in my opinion and it really takes away me-likes-points.

I will probaly get bashed for this,but i really REALLY hate Final Fantasy 7 Dirge of Cerebrus.The story is boring,the battle system I DESPISED,and some of the awesome characters of FF7 werent playable I bought the game...hmm 2 years ago,and I still havent beat it cuz its boring.But i must say,some of the battles were really hard.That I applaud.<>><><>
...Oh..I dont exactly hate FF13,but I dont like the idea of giving bosses and fiends UBER amounts of hp.And thats my only problem with it.

I'd have to say X. Hated Tidus, hated Wakka, hated Seymour, hated the grid system which removed any use of classes, hated Sin. Just hated the game in general, but Tidus was the real killer for me. every time that douche opened his mouth I wanted ram a sword through his throat. Worst FF ever and worst protaganist ever. EVER! I would've said XII, but I kinda got that rant out of my system on a different thread.

i hated pretty much every singel game i have played in the begining of it because i was getting used to it but after that i didnt have one that i hated abut i havent played them all so

My least favorite out of the ones I've played would be VIII. I couldn't stand Squall's personality, and I disliked Rinoa on sight. I'm also not keen on the fact that monsters level up with you. Put those things together and it means I never even finished the game. I left off about halfway through because I simply couldn't tolerate it anymore.

Final Fantasy X. While 7 was just mediocre and 8 was just stupid bad, 10 was where it was cemented that the series is beyond saving. Unlikeable, unrelateable characters, a story that seems bent on not including the player, and not to mention all of the plotholes and inconsistencies. Be warned, FF fans. The series is dead and forever gone.

FFVII.... only FF game I used a gameshark for because I couldn't stand the characters, uninteresting story, thousands of plot holes... the gameshark helped me get to the end of the game just so I could see the ending....(Which was also....yeah retarded) Although I think I started using the gameshark around the middle of disc 2 or something like that.

Every other FF game was interesting enough for me to learn the system and learn how to beat the game.

FFX almost made the list too but something about Yuna made me change my mind about the entire game lol

This is the third thread I have answerd which is basically the same question. First off I think hate and despise are too strong of words to use on a matter as trivial as this I have games that I think are better than others my least fave is 10-2 but I do not hate or despise this game I just think the others are better.
