I hate it when people say that......just cause it got so much hype for bein the first 3D rpg and a lot of people say the story is incomplete but its so complex that a lot of people would believe that.

Yes, but you wasn't saying why.

You in fact wrote it like that you meant that everyone loves it and that no one dislikes anything in it.

No offence

Well for lots of people it was the first FF they have ever played, and you know when the first game you play is realli fun you just seems to like it more than the new ones. I just realli liked the character and the plot of the whole thing, kinda shows a bit about how the government is controlling things you know. But mostly the characters, i like how Cloud is just cool, Tifa is so worried, Barret is an ass and so on.

Yeah, FFVII might be. It's a great game, but when you think FF, you automatically think FFVII, like it's the only game in the series.

The thing is that some of the opinions that I trust the least is the opinions of "fanatics" that seems to think that they are the only people with a valid opinion on their favourite game ( or whatever they are fanatical about ) even though they often not even say why as if it wasn't needed to be explained.

I am not saying that any one here is a real fanatic, maybe semi fanatics though some of you ( I don't hate semi fanatics but I am tired of them.

I can't say that FFVII isn't quite complex but it is not more complex than some of the other FF games, the reason to that it is more discussed is that it seems to be liked by more people.

When i played FF7 i was only 7 and i knew pratically nothing about rpgs. I didnt enjoy it at first but i grew and started to understand it more.

I liked the game without knowing anything about the hype leading up to it as i didnt read games magazines at that age. The next 3 years i played FFVII and FFIX and had only growin slitly as a rpg fan yet found them to be worse than FFVII. Even at a young age i still enjoyed this ff game without knowing the worlds love for the game too.

All of the other ff games had thier chance to shine but FF7 became a revolution and somehow made a bigger impact on a larger scale than any ff game. FF7 isnt overated its just caught in a trap by people who feel that it got too much and are upset because other ff games got so little praise.

Yeh i know what your saying and i agree with you. Im not saying that everyone should love it and thats it, thats just my opinion, i have played FFVIII, FX, FX-2 and they were great aswell, my next fav would be FX, the graphics and story line are great but still i prefer FFVII because it was my first.

I can understand that you like FFVII, but I think that it is not only that it was you first FF that is the reason to that it is your favourite, I think that it suits you a little more than some of the others :wink:

FFVII is the only overrated FF.

It is a VERY GOOD GAME, don't get me wrong, but it is nowhere near the best game ever, namely because it isn't even in the top three FF games ever.

I believe that Final Fantasy VII is overrated. The game is defiitely excellent and close to perfection, even though I think almost all Final fantasies are. However, Final Fantasy VII is gtting so much. it would be nice to show some love to other Final Fantasies.

That is your opinion, just cause you dont think it is the best FF, it doesent mean it isnt, or judt cause I think it is the best ever, doesnt mean it is either. But I really dont think any of the final fatasy games are overated.

FFVII most certainly.  Great game, no doubt, but the way some people treat it, and attack those who dare suggest it isn't the best game ever made, is almost legendary at this point.

Many liked Final Fantasy VII as it was most's first. I started out with FFX being my first and went backwards to play VII. VII was a very depressing game. You went from slums to casino to prison—it was just so sad, and the majority of colors on the screen was black and brown to add to it. It was very sad, and the graphics were pretty bad for that generation of games.

FFVII may be overrated. I personally think it deserves it's cred, it certainly does live up to the hype.

I think FFTA was overrated. It was a fun and good game, don't get me wrong. But I had a serious problem with it's storyline. I hated it, that's my problem with it. It's a fun system, but an RPG is separate from strategy games, or board games, or adventure games, in my opinion, because of it's compelling story, which I think FFTA didn't have a good one of.

"My favorite game is Final Fantasy!!"

Next day.....

"OMG, I'm in my favorite game!!"

That's how I felt the story was when I played through this game. Don't flame me or anything, people have their opinions. FFVII is my favorite game of all time, but that doesn't mean the people who hate it are wrong. They just have an opinion, and everyone is entitled to having one. As I was going through this board, all I saw was people quoting other people and complaining. (Funny seeing up to 7 quotes in a single reply XD)

Sorry about hte long post, I just had that stuff in my mind. >.>

There are some fan forums for FFVII that give fans of the game a bad name... the ones where you can post saying you'd rate the game a 9.4 out of 10 and get flammed bigtime.

If any FF game is overated it has to be FFX. That game has a pretty weak storyline overall and the main character is so thick yet the game just tried to hide that with "sins toxin".

Most Final Fantasy fans have started with FFVII, so they have a love for this game that blinds most of them from the truth.  Those fans believe that this game has the best story, characters and replay value of all the other games in the series. Don't get me wrong FFVII was a very enjoyable game and it is in no means bad but it is not as good as it's made out to be.

Well i dont mind what you people think on FFVII
