I started with FF6 on the Supernintendo but didn't complete it before it was temporaily lost and FF7 came into the household. So I completed 7,8,9, and X before returning to 6. I do think that 6 is just as good as the rest even though it's graphics are poorer. It kinda gives more room for a storyline that way in my opinion. And I wholeheartedly agree that the games are loved for their characters, storyline, places and features. They are my favorite games to play over and over again.
