again, have you even PLAYED ff6

Actually you are quite right I never played 6 because the whole premise of it was the same fucking thing as past games.

Again, the whole concept got old during 5-6. Admittingly however, I was somewhat interested in FF7 when I first heard of it, but that ended up being an overhyped game with the same gameplay and concept, everything was just modernized a bit.

I don't understand your point.

You're saying that they all have the same gameplay and whatever, but that's the whole point. FF11, FF12, and FF14 aside, all of them are turn-based RPGs. It's sort of a given that they'd all play similarly.

not to mention that 6 isn't the same premise so um what???????????

Because 1-6 was the same damn thing over and over again base upon looks?

I can understand where all of them are pretty much the same gameplay. But I wasn't just talking about that. I was saying that 1-6's plot and concept got old, I didn't even bother to finish 5 because I simply got bored of it, and I never got 6 because it was the same game, with better looks.

Kind of why 7 got rid of the whole job system and tried to aim for a better plot, It didn't make it the best FF out there but it sure as hell made the series a little more bearable to play, same with 8-10 and after that I just stopped caring for the series waiting for an entirely newer FF that involved so much more the ether of those things.

Don't get me wrong here, but I honestly don't believe that 6 is the best RPG of all time, it just seems like another dungeons and dragons straight on to video games.

> Because 1-6 was the same damn thing over and over again based upon looks?

Your argument is moot within the first sentence.
FF6 is literally completely different than FF1-5. It's not just a generic knights and dragons story with a graphical update; the entire game is so far above and beyond 1-4 that I can't even compare them.

Maybe you should actually play it instead of knocking it with no knowledge of what it actually is? If anything, FF6 is closer in terms of feel and story to FF7 and FF8 than it is to FF1-5.

Also the Job system is gone in FF6.
