The realm of Ivalice, however, holds one of the richest and most satisfying Final Fantasy experiences available after the world opens up and you become familiar with the progressive fight system. The first few hours of Final Fantasy XII won’t excite you as much as some other top-tier Final Fantasy games. The gambit system and a revamped Limit Break mechanism termed Quickenings made the battle, formerly known as the Active Dimension Battle system, incredibly sophisticated. Beautifully rendered scenery and fascinating individuals abound in the wonderful world of Ivalice. Because Final Fantasy XII is still unparalleled more than ten years later, it ranks very highly on this list. It was difficult to compare Final Fantasy XII to any other Final Fantasy game because it played so significantly different. Final Fantasy XII caused controversy among players since it was the first mainstream, non-MMO game to switch from random fights to real-time combat. #5 – Final Fantasy XII Image Courtesy of Silent Longplays via YouTubeĪ classic masterpiece is the HD remaster of Final Fantasy XII. Fighting random encounters takes up much of your time in Final Fantasy IX, which is a grindy game. If you’re a fan of JRPGs this is as classic as they come. There are various platforms where Final Fantasy IX is widely available, including Switch, PS4, Xbox One, Android, iOS, and PC. The world is captivating, the characters have depth, and the gameplay has a distinctly retro vibe. #6 – Final Fantasy IX Image Courtesy of Square Enix via YouTube Today’s ideal option to play it is on the 3D remake for DS, PC, and mobile.

The class system also acquired a lovely new layer, since each class felt meant to communicate a specific aspect of the tale, with active time battles becoming a thing in Final Fantasy IV, a system that persisted uninterrupted until Final Fantasy X. With all due respect to the first three games in the series, Final Fantasy IV catapulted the series into the stratosphere. #7 – Final Fantasy IV Image Courtesy of CGRundertow via YouTubeįinal Fantasy IV, the first game in the series for the Super Nintendo, is essentially the first Final Fantasy that really mattered. Even so, Final Fantasy VII is arguably the most significant game in the franchise outside of Final Fantasy IV, and the action-packed PS4 remake lets a new generation of fans enjoy the captivating narrative. ![]() The fighting system was agonizingly sluggish, the animation was incredibly awful, and gameplay-wise, it didn’t do much to build off of Final Fantasy VI. It’s a terrific game, but with drawbacks, you wouldn’t anticipate following the popularity of Final Fantasy VI. The story of Final Fantasy VII is both smart and controversial, and it includes some of the most deservedly popular good and evil characters in the history of the franchise. The inclusion of Final Fantasy VII on this list, which is debatably the most iconic game in the franchise, may surprise some of its avid supporters. #8 – Final Fantasy VII Image Courtesy of videogamedunkey via YouTube ![]() The world is engaging to explore and well-made, but the story lacks substance and the DLC expansions didn’t make any difference. The core cast consists of a gang of fashionable and possibly annoying teenagers. The encounters lack the subtlety that FF fans have grown accustomed to and don’t feel quite right. ![]()
