I'd say Final Fantasy is probably the most well-known JRPG series out there. With over 16 mainline games and countless spin-offs, it's got a huge amount of games under its belt, and has had a big influence on the JRPG genre.

The first Final Fantasy game was created by Hironobu Sakaguchi in 1987. In the 36 years since the first game was released, the series has undergone numerous changes. While the games up to Final Fantasy X were all turn-based, sometimes they were played in real time. Subsequent games introduced different experimental battle systems and were MMORPGs or action games. Many fans believe the series reached its peak with the older games between Final Fantasy VI and Final Fantasy X. On the other hand, the more recent Final Fantasy games, including the Final Fantasy VII remake series, Final Fantasy XVI and every expansion of Final Fantasy XIV, have been well-received.

So what you opionion about the Final Fantasy series, what the best game and what is you opinion about the modern games.

@tamlyn story wise, i find it amazing. and i think it’s rare for rpgs to kill important characters and change your party's constitution frequently.

its just that for me, it felt like being thrown into a this whole fleshed out world and i was just there to watch.

unlike in most rpgs where u start of really weak, meet party members, and develop them together, this one threw me off. Not only did we start as really poweful warriors, we also get a very powerful mage soon after.

The twins dying made me really sad, I was raising them to be the strong mages that they are and they.... ToT

I think if I replay it with the same mindset that you did, the experience will become a whole lot more enjoyable.
