Most of this thread gives a pretty good overview of the general consensus of the Final Fantasy games. Don't listen to the guy who said FF6 was the "hipster's choice". It's legitimately top 2 in almost everyone's book, and has been for ages. In my opinion it has the best combination of gameplay, story, characters, and music of all the series.

Also, if you can find it give Chrono Trigger a shot. Fantastic game.

Tried to play that game but after playing Secret of Mana, it just felt like a clone to me. Really think about going for 5 or 6.

This just isn't true. Majority of people haven't even played it. The general top two Final Fantasy games are FF7 and FF10. As Freaxzen's posts show, as the the newer games have released, older fans are flocked more to the more traditional titles. I just don't think it's as good as people say.

It's always been there from what I've seen. There's also the idea that maybe people are finally warming to it? Happens all the time with media. Think about a movie like It's a WOnderful Life, which lost money in the theaters at the time of its release. Now it's a Christmas classic.

I would definitely agree that it's gotten far more appreciation with age.
