FFX by a lot. The story, setting, music, and turn-based battle just can't be beat for me. (Just X here; X-2 feels too different and I don't care for it.)
FFXII. The setting is awesome, the open world feels amazing to explore, and the gambit system is original and fun.
FFVII Remake. I somehow managed to miss the iconic FFVII, and decided to go into Remake blind—it's fantastic so far, and I'm excited for the next one.
FFXIII and FFXIII-2. Another fantastic setting, and the story is great (although I had to read every datalog entry multiple times to understand it). The paradigm system that shifts battle focus from individual actions to large-scale strategy is unique and interesting. Sadly, FFXIII-3's writing took a nosedive IMO, and FFXIII-2 ends on a cliffhanger, so the series feels unfinished.
FFVIII. It's weird, but it's cute, and I had fun watching the story get crazier and crazier. I don't love the drawing system for magic, so battle isn't my favorite.

Last, I'm only a few hours in, but I can already tell FFXVI is going to be on this list, probably near the top!

FFXVI for sure! Will play 7/10/12 and 13 (if there will be some ps4/5 Version in the future)

This is pretty close to my list.

FFX is one of my favorite games of all time. Not just my favorite FF game.

XII has maybe my favorite semi-open world roaming of any game. Really top notch.

I'd swap VIIR for Crisis Core. I never cared for VII or most of the characters (Cait Sith is baller though). Crisis Core really hits all the marks though. Truly a fantastic game.

XIII has some of my favorite characters and character interactions. Every time an Eidolon is created, shit gets real. XIII-2 took the okay combat of XIII with monster capturing, inserted low-key one of the best villains and made a hell of a game. LR has some really fun real time combat as well with some interesting mechanics, some of which worked while others didn't. Story is not an emphasis.

Finally, my favorite to replay being VIII. It's fun, quirky, and there's about a million different ways to play it. You can get OP by playing cards, you can draw all of your magic, you can refine your magic, you can card all of your enemies to avoid leveling up. Whatever you want to do is fine. (p.s. drawing all of your magic is not needed.)
