Played VI and beat it a long time ago. From the original RPG 2D style standpoint, I don't disagree with you at all, although IV remains my favorite of all time. From the point where the games took a leap in 3D styling, and a more visual world, VII is my favorite, although the graphics in VIII and X were definately superior from the blocky more animated characters of VII. And VI actually had something no other FF ever had... The most psychotic evil lunatic of all time... Kefka, but then VII had the most vile, methodical and thoughtout of evils (not to mention the coolest, <3 the murasame), Sephiroth.
Granted, each game I've played over 20 years has given something I enjoy. The birth of the series, The characters of IV; the story and drama of VI; the originality and rebirth of the series in VII, the graphics of VIII; the recreation of an old style FF in IX; the amazing cgi videos in X; the world style of XII, the game style and ending of Tactics; the immerse and long play value of XI...
What will Crisis Core give me, I wonder...
