I only have 3 FF games(FF8, X and Tactics) but they were all good to excellent quality.
The series as a whole is overrated but that's not a surprising thing to say.

Nope. It's just not good.

Yes but I like them.
I'd say that it isn't. The games people praise deserve it and since no one gives the not so good ones great praise I would say it isn't given special treatment. When you have to call the series either good or bad, I would say it's good.
I said yes.
I finally got to play the "god send" that was suppose to be FF3 (6 for those who got the PSX disk) a year or two ago. I will admit that there were nice parts in the game, but it did not live up to the hype that I had been hearing about it for years.
Story development was sub par, some of the towns and maps were bland, and kefka blew, both physically and figuratively. I never even got around to finishing the game after kefka became a God because I just didn't care anymore. I'll probably get around to beating it some day, but I'm disappointed that it didn't deliver the orgasms of delight that fanboys have been talking about for years now.
For the most part, I'd dare say Lunar 1 & 2 and Phantasy Star 4 were better games. Both had a lot better game flow, game design, story development, character development, and all around did the personal aspect of RPGs better. The only thing I would give FF3 over lunar was it's magic system. FF3 was great in that it gave you lots of fun options to play with where lunar 1 was beyond basic in its magic system.
Yes, Tidus has AIDs.
FF3 managed a large cast of characters very well (many of which had some nice development) and had a great story in the first half, still pretty decent in the second half. Also, if you played it after all those other games, including later FF titles, its impact was probably diminished somewhat.
I played some of 10, didn't get far enough to where its good, don't care to, thats the end of final fantasy for me. I will admit, I am an oldschool FF fan, but, for the sake of not being every other board on the planet, i won't turn this into a large argument. I will only say that, i thought kefka was an excellent enemy, you actually thought he was being evil, just to be evil. No seroius motivation, this guy was just flat out evil. I think that made the last confrontation something awesome.
