This. FF14 is great and the only good thing to happen to the franchise in the last decade. I'd actually say it's the only good thing in the franchise since FFX. Sorry not sorry.

What a depressing list overall unless you're a fan of MMOs. Geez. That said, I've heard enough good things about XIV to recognize it's probably the best. But out of the ones I've played (XIII, XIII-2, XV and Dissidia NT) it's definitely XV. Unfinished as it is, it still manages to blow the XIIIs out of the water.
World is on my queue. Bought it on sale recently. And despite disliking MMOs, XIV is on my queue too.

FFXIV is one of the better written FFs in the entirety of the franchise so it ranks in the top five for me.
My main excitement of the expansion releasing soon is getting to see the further adventures of some of my favorite characters, not really anything gameplay related. It's like a TV show that gets a new season/episodes every few months and it's great.

Yea this LOL. The rest are all bad games. Former FFXI player here so I can't get into that terrible WoW clone and the rest speak for themselves really.
It would be a fight between XIII and XIV.
XIV is arguably the "better" game , but it felt like it was collecting all the worst aspects of MMOs when I played, which burned me out of it. So I picked XIII.
None of these games are really good. But I thought XIII and XIII-2 had plenty of good elements in there. It was primarily the linear maps and the 25 hour tutorial that was offensively bad.
WOFF was kinda okay, mediocre in all aspects, but nothing that was a disaster. I could see some potential if they heavily refined everything in a sequel.
XV was just completely awful with no redeeming qualities.

On this subject - I cannot start a thread, but FFX and FFXII switch are both on sale at Amazon. Which should I pick up? Leaning toward FFXII, but I honestly cannot remember much at all about FFX because it has been so long
Currently playing FFXIV and loving it, probably the most fun I've had with FF since the XII re-release.

only played type-0, XIII and XV. its XV by far, but not because i think its a great game at all

Heavensward is a top 5 FF. Stormblood was pretty good too.
Loved the Theatrhythm games.
World and XV are decent.

I was thinking "that's a depressing list" until I remembered this was a thing.
I mean, it has Mystic Quest representation. Mystic Quest!!
World of Final Fantasy was the best Final Fantasy game that released that year. I've heard FFXV has improved a lot since it's launch. I've also heard great things about FFXIV but i have not played it. the subscription cost and time investment are keeping me away.
If I could change my vote, I would change it to this. Definitely one of the top tier games of all in the last decade for me.
But I chose FFXIV on the list, and it's great.
World of Final Fantasy Maxima for me, is the more " finalfantasier" game they made this generation. I played it on Xbox One and loved it. Want a sequel as soon as posible but I dont have much hope
I hate it when people lump all 3 XIII games together.
I'm not voting
Anyways, my answer is Final Fantasy XIII. Amazing art direction, music, battle system, lore, etc. I just fucking love that game

XIV.
I just failed to get into FFXV for the 2nd time recently. Bought the Royal Expansion and rewatched the first hour of Kingsglaive, so it's not like I wasn't committed. That world is just so fucking boring, almost as much as the tasks they have you doing.10 minute car ride to "mine" a mineral deposit? Come on, Tabata.

Brave Exvius I guess lol. I'm trying to get into FF14 but the vanilla content is boring as hell. I've heard it picks up later though.
Can't argue with that. I like XV, but it's a solid 8/10 at most and that's still the best single player mainline FF since XII.
Final Fantasy XV dethroned VII as my favorite FF game.
I wish I had the time to devote to FFXIV though

I didn't finish any of them, didn't buy any of them, and barely cared enough to watch my friends play them, never to completion.
I hear 14 is pretty good though. Also, no one I knew bought Lightning Returns, so I can't speak to it besides that really funny box dog screenshot.
Final Fantasy 15 is great, but The Crystal Bearers should be in the poll.
Damn, forgot this existed. But I guess you can blame Square Enix for that.
Doing the work of Cosmos with that first post.
if you count spin offs then
(Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest in Itadaki Steet Special 30th Anniversary Edition :P)
which I really should play more of. I need to print off a new reference sheet I suppose.

XIV was pretty good. World of Final Fantasy was better. Rest is simply forgettable to the extreme
Yeah... I still don't get why they won't localize it.
it didn't help the only one of the franchise (not including the mobile game which was horrible) to get localized was the wii one which people constantly confused as a mario party like game.
even then it should have sold at least as well as all those idea factory games that are released :/
I'm hoping that they make a new one on the switch and that nintendo helps localize it again so I can have proper online play with my friends on the game :( (I couldn't convince my friends to get the japanese version and play with a reference sheet lol)
15 is my fav one but 14 is damn good.
7R will more than likely be up there too once I play it (never played original)

I liked Final Fantasy XV a lot despite its problems, but it's the Final Fantasy XIII trilogy for me and it's not even close. Lightning Returns sucks, but FF XIII and XIII-2 were both wonderful titles that were certainly flawed but get about 5000% more flak than they deserve.
Touch choice for me between XV and XIII, but i gave the nod to XV.
I really like XIII-2, WoFF, and Type-0 as well. Platinumed allo of them.

Well listing the FF 13 games together is a bit unfair because I like them all but if I had to pick on it would be 13-2 followed by 15 then 13 with the rest of that list falling short imo with the exception of 14 since I don't play MMOs so I won't judge it.
It'll probably change to XIV in a few weeks once I start it but right now... gotta go with XIII.
Pretty much my thoughts. I'm probably not quite as high on XIII and XIII-2 but I liked both a decent amount. So yeah voted for the XIII games.
