This, mine is FF 4 mostly but I did play the original.
Hey Yas Forums, so what's your favorite Final Fantasy?
Didn't come here to be bitch at by soyboys. Defend your shitty game or fuck off.
everybody knows aeris dies
therefore your premise is invalid
Well a lot of it has to do with nostalgia and how much of a milestone it was in the industry and for JRPGs in general.
As for the merits of the game itself, the materia system was just fun to mix and match with. In a lot of JRPGs you're given paltry bonuses for finding loot on the world map, and VII isn't any different, but finding materia felt more special.
Aerith dying is still a gut punch even to this day for me.
As a bonus, there's not a single character on the roster that I hate. In most other RPGs there's that one character that I absolutely hate and VII just doesn't have that. The closest to a shit character is Cait Sith and that's all before he starts getting real. Then I started taking him seriously and liked the character.
bait
Ive heard 4 and 5 are awesome, never played them though
Damn nigga, gangbanging on the ff thread (13 was trash btw)
>Aerith dying is still a gut punch even to this day for me.
she isn't dying in the (((remake))). They're making AC Sephiroth time-travel back to the beginning of the original events and rewriting everything, one of the consequences is that Aerith never dies and goes into the lifestream to stop him
Yeah I really did like the job class system in V. I did also like the lighthearted tone. The one thing that gets me is the main bad guy's literally named "Exdeath" and it's a tree.

Suppose it was just one of those things you have to love to love. Thanks for not just blowing off what I said. Can't say I understand your viewpoint, but I do appreciate you trying to help me understand.
