What final fantasy should I play first?

[darthzorua]

I've heard/ seen fainal fantasy, it looks fun and there are 13 games. any suggestions of which I should play first?

[SERIOUSLY THOUGH]

The first one -Then you'll go along the stories (even if most don't follow) and evolve across the platforms and graphics as you go along

Final Fantasy 3(6 in Japan) first.
Then any of 2, 3, 4, 7, 9, 10-2, 12, 13, 13-2.

This. It is easily, hands down, the best of the series.

Play 8, not sure why noone else mentioned it.
X-2 but not X? That doesn't make any sense because the player will be so lost with what happens.

I (personally) don't think it really matters. After FF7 I stopped playing the FF series for the story. The writing is just terrible. XIII-2 I could follow and did enjoy. X's story in a nutshell...



My damn. One good thing about X was having the hardest boss battles in the entire FF series, Penance.

I only say play X-2 because the girls got HOT(!) and the games battle mechanics are far more refined and interesting to learn.

So he gets up to shenanigans with werewolves, before killing Voldemort who went into Dumbledore's grave to get some powerful-ass wand. Some time later, Dumbledore (who is somehow no longer dead) and Harry go to a cave to look for a horcrux. Little did they know that Voldemort was about to come back with his full power during the triwizards tournament. HOLYSHIT I'M A WIZARD !? Yes, now watch as your Godfather (needlessly) dies because soon the chamber of secrets will open and some snake will go dicking around Hogwards.

Final Fantasy Mystic Quest,just to know how the system works(the game is short,too).
After that go play Final Fantasy VI.It's easier,and have beautiful graphics.

[damisaur]

well there are over 50 final fantasy games, but around 18 main line games, start from the first one then move up the list

I suggest you start off with the first one. then you'll have a basic idea of how Final Fantasy works from 1-10.
