I love you.
I'm one of those who had FFVII as their first FF (had a Mega Drive (Genesis to you yank-types) instead of an NES or SNES, so no option there) but made a point to play through the older ones afterwards. I loved 8 and it holds the place of my second-favorite FF title (the first being 6). I'm with Tadir in that I didn't like 9 all that much. Zidane was obnoxious, Steiner was aggravating and Dagger/Garnet just didn't appeal to me at all. Vivi was cute and all, but...meh. I was actually quite happy upon reaching endgame when I could remove Zidane from the party completely and replace him with Amarant.
Also, Necron. WTF.
Of course, here's the opinion that's gonna get me lynched - I liked FFX-2. Yup. Bust out the torches and pitchforks. Of course, I didn't EXPECT a full fledged, "proper" Final Fantasy title. I went into it expecting it to be cheesy, over the top and filled with gratuitous fanservice. As a result, I enjoyed it. The job system in it was fun, for me.
With both of yas. IX was what really stabbed the knife into the heart of the series for me. I was an unabashed Square fangirl up to that point and IX killed that. I grew more wary, I'd stop buying something just because they made it. I hated IX more than I had hated any game before because I had expected to like it.
XII was also a massive disappointment because of Vaan and Penelo. People say they become less important as the game goes on...but it doesn't matter. I can't force myself to get that far. I hate Vaan far too much. Hell, playing as Recks would have been better.
Have not even touched XIII. Never plan to.
Like Tyriont, I enjoyed X-2 because I also did not go in expecting it to be serious.
@Farahl on Champions Online. If you know me, say hi. We can do some kind of crazy Highlander duel as there can be only one CO refugee.
