Its character designs haven't aged a day, as evidenced by fan love that helped sell the idea to remake the game for a modern audience. Cloud and his gang are the defacto face of the Final Fantasy franchise, inspiring countless cosplay imitations, fan fiction, and art. It was even enough to inspire the creation of the follow-up film Final Fantasy 7: Advent Children. Few games enjoy such bragging rights. Once more, this is a close call between two similar, but unique combat engines.
Final Fantasy 6 focused primarily on learning skills by equipping Magicite stones with a list of predetermined abilities such as elemental or status magics. Final Fantasy 7 focused more on the Materia system, which could be applied to weapon slots. It wasn't just about skills, though.
Final Fantasy 6's characters had wholly unique combat attributes that were more interactive than its successor. This added more spice to the fights, something Final Fantasy 7 slipped just a little bit on.
This one is a no-brainer. CDs allowed for massive storage many times that of a cartridge, allowing Square to pack superior visuals and animations into the game.
Final Fantasy 6 was no slouch either, but its traditional super-deformed jRPG visuals were already long in the tooth by that point. Final Fantasy 7 broke the visual mold, and it set a precedent for every title that has followed since. Magnus Silver Member. Yeah, the "turn based or bust" crowd is really the worst. Gatekeeping in general is bad, but I feel like they take it to the next level. DarkosOverlord Bronze Member. Yeah, I do feel this is being blown a bit out of proportions.
All fandoms have these recurring themes in some way or another, it's basically unavoidable when one pours so much feelings into a product only to find someone else with the same exact amount of emotions into a completely different outlet, ensuing the flame wars and clashes between factions. This will keep happening as long as fandoms will keep being left to their own devices, with no one to look into the matter except to bring them back just to complain about how bad they are.
This is hardly any different than "KH II system vs command system", "Faulkner music vs original score", and so many other examples. Just the other day I've found out there are clan wars over this or that Dragon Ball manga artist. I don't think they are the worst thing that ever happened to their respective medium. Heck, I think "fandoms are ok vs fandoms are the scourge of the Earth" is another fitting example.
At the end of the day you can just accept that someone will feel differently from you and that their complaints doesn't take anything away from your own taste and enjoyment of the same product. Don't go where people say something that really bothers you, and don't engage with them on that subject if you feel you or them can't handle a civil and productive exchange.
Onto this specific subject: Final Fantasy applied sometimes drastic changes and the saga carried itself over many years, years in which players, directors and the videogame industry changed. It's only logical that there will be some people that love an FF titles while hating another one, I'm not an exception: the FF XIII trilogy represents to me one of Square's most colossal failures, with close to none redeeming features whatsoever. It's one but not the only reason why I refer to that period as the videogames' Middle Age.
You don't have to come shouting at me about how wrong I am: some people love it, some people think it's the best FF ever.
It's cool. None of this really damages my relationship with the series as a whole. In order to engage with people and fandoms you'll have to come to term that the mere concept of someone liking or disliking something shouldn't bother you. I know it's not easy, btw. So Final Fantasy V is a much more superior game to me personally.
And yes, 7 is above 6 because i believe that 7 has much more originality for it's time.

But since 10's My point is, no matter where you go, you will always hear somebody saying that FF7 is overrated and saying that FF6 is the best Final Fantasy Doesn't it mean that FF6 is overrated as well? To me, FF7 and FF6 are both overrated Every town has a lot of originality put into it, a lot of interesting gameplay elements and mini-games, a lot of strange stuff.
FF6 has it as well, but FF7 has more of it. Such as Sonic Adventure and Planet Laika. I love them for the fact that developers did go beyond the boundaries of what Videogames can do.
