Says he with the FFV avatar.

FF5's probably not my personal favourite of the series (FF2 is probably still up there), but it's probably in the upper tiers. Then again I've never really ordered my preferred FF's before, nor do I intend to.

WHITE MAGE KITTY avatar, Captain , and I only just thought about it after I read this thread.

for storyline and characters it doesn't match up to other FFs but its fun, is great for replaying and is a great game.

FFV is my second favorite FF, followed after VIII.

I say this is probably my favorite "old" FF (Followed by VI) My fvorite "new" one is probly VII.

I love FFV. It's my favorite of the 2D Final Fantasies and comes third in my list of favorites after FFVIII and FFIX. Isn't it weird that my three favorite FFs are the ones that cop the most crap from fans in the entire series?

When I first played the game, I disliked it outright. It was boring, the storyline was too simple, and the only saving grace was the class system. However, upon further evaluation (more play time) the game grew on me. It isn't my favorite Final Fantasy, or even in the top three, but it is still a good game.

I still maintain my dislike for X-Death, by far one of the worst villians in Final Fantasy or RPG history.

I also disliked FFV when I started with it. The storyline felt lacking, Exdeath felt like a really lousy villain (one of my fanfics around that time made fun of his personality being nothing but saying "Fools! Fwahahaha!") and I hadn't got into the battle system yet. However, when I got to play the game more and got more interested in it, I started to like it a lot. Back then, I put my fanfic on hold for a while until I beat FFV since I wanted to know more of FFV's story to be able to write about it. I'm glad I did so because FFV eventually turned out to be a lot of fun. I think it's my 4th favorite FF at the moment.

possibly my favorite 2D FF, it's a tossup between that and VI I think. The Job system was real great, there's so many to learn that it never really gets boring, you can pick one of the more obscure ones like Trainer or Hunter (blood swords!) if you get bored with the main ones.

I thougt the storyline was really good, and I liked X-Death more than Kefka. He's a black mage, not a clown. The whole legend of the Dawn Warriors was real great too, I really liked Kelga.

I'm probably gonna hit this game up again once I'm done w/ XII and III DS.
