I sorta liked two, but then again I only played the GBA version.

Come to think of it, I haven't beat any of these games.

I'm with you.  I love them all.  FF II gets a bad rap for it's leveling system, but I think the leveling/combat system in VIII is way more broken and counter-intuitive than II's.  FF II was fun, but you basically have to view it as a western RPG in the way you level your characters.  I really like VIII, but that game basically punishes you for leveling up in that the opponents level with you, but at a faster rate (better to stay low level and increase stats by refining/junctioning magic).  And the whole boosting mechanic for GFs is lame.  What's the point of having these grand eye popping summoning sequences when my attention has to be on the lower right corner the whole time to know when to stop pressing a button?  But I still dig VIII.
IX is probably my favorite overall.  X has the best battle system.  XII is my second overall favorite (warts and all).

I beta tested XI and have always thought it was the most un-fun game I've ever played in my life.

The last time I played 8 I didn't use the GF command once.

Or Draw, outside of swiping GFs off enemies.

God, XII had so much potential.  I tried popping it in again and AGAIN I get sick of the game at Bhujerba–which isn't far along in the game at all.  The game like EXPECTS you to be a genius at the gambit shit and EXPECTS that you've grinded the fuck out of your characters.

Gay gay gay

on my second try of ff12 i liked it a lot more by turning off gambits, switching the game to wait mode. i don't grind at all just gogogo from place to place. haven't played in months. not that it's bad, it just couldn't leave me interested, which is a shame, because I'm usually mindlessly addicted to final fantasy games

I didn't grind and got along fine, and gambits are easy peasy.

Still scrapped it at 25 hours or so.

i like 12 a lot but when the politician started talking like an indian from a 7-11 i was pushed over the edge into love.  couple that with actually seeing the monsters rather than a blank screen and it was phenomenal.

You need to do a LOT of grinding during the second half of the game. It's ridiculous. The gambits were fun to play around with at first, but micromanaging them between six characters became a pain in the ass later in the game. You can get away with only leveling three characters, though. I have no idea why I used all six (got most of them to ~50), huge waste of time.

I curious to try XII with the Zodiac job system. It would fix some of the problems I found with the License Boards (mainly them being almost the same among all characters).

FFXII is such a "bittersweet" game, for lack of a better term. It had so much potential. The soundtrack and art direction is incredible. Ivalice was such a beautiful world, and the game had a great and interesting cast of characters (e.g. Balthier, Fran, and Larsa) minus a couple I didn't care for. It was basically hurt by its mediocre-at-best story and poor plot.

FFI-III suck. FFIV-X are omg. FFXI is lol. FFXII is meh.

From what I've played, I kind of agree. I think FFXII is more good than "meh" for me, though. Think 8.0 - 1UP style.

Never played 2.  Otherwise, I'd agree with you.  Good use of the relatively neutral term 'like'.

If you go into it with no baggage and no expectations, and an eye for artistry and architecture, It's really fuckin awesome. There's a few bumps, but eh.
