Anonymous File :-(, x)
OP anon and also one of the discussion fags. I think it's something amazing seeing how opinions vary from each one of us - I guess it only proves Square's been doing it right and different people relate themselves better with a different title.
Maybe the first Final Fantasy we play always stays marked for eternity, I guess. I started with Final Fantasy VII when it was released here (Eurofag, no prior ones were released to earlier formats, etc) and then it came VIII. I guess those two will always be somewhat special, love the gameplay and general storyline on VII, VIII in another hand has an awful gameplay (wouldn't dare to touch the magic spells, otherwise junction would be screwed, also infinite minutes summoning GF) but the characters are really "deep" and you can "feel" for them... I think that even though VII has an amazing plot, the characters seem somewhat cold and distant to the player (funny enough, it's still the same on AC IMHO).
As to VI, played it only when it was remade for PS, and just like some wise anon said - it has an amazing character development, even better than VIII. I also think Magicite is superior to VII and VIII battle systems. Not even commenting on the soundtracks because every single one is fucking amazing.
tl;dr, I can't really favorite one particular chapter, but IV, VI, VII and VIII are my top favorites. X is really cool to play, mainly because the battle system amuses me much. IX was just weird overall.
