7,8, and 9 are my favorites.So which ones released (on time) in the US? I beat FF1-3, then I remember missing 7, playing 10 and hating the wheel. Hating the direction of the series. Then after the creator left to form mistwaker I tuned out of Final fantasy. What else do I need to play besides 7?
My gut tells me @DPresidential knows...
Coincidentally in that order as well.
Definitely cop FF7 asap and play that classic!
I agree that X was too much of a change in direction. It's a decent game, but I didn't like the progression wheel, or the characters in the game.
Honestly, the last "modern" RPG that I really enjoyed was Persona 5 and before that it was Blue Dragon. Everything else in between didn't click with me enough to warrant a shout out.
But yeah, FF7 is about as classic as it gets. Just straight RPG with an incredible cast and great story.
FF7 is out on XBOX right now. I'm not sure about 9 and X but I know if they aren't out they're coming very soon.
FF9 is different from FF7 but it remains true to the core experience. None of those goofy wheel menus. The story isn't as good as FF7 though (to me).
