Definitely the best in the franchise so far. It was the first game that I was actually enjoying up until the end. The job system is fun to mess around with, it just took me way too long to understand how to properly use it. I'd recommend this one to a newcomer, at least from what little of the series I've played so far.

However, this game's final boss is unreasonably hard, I wasn't able to beat it. It sucks cuz it really brought my enjoyment of the game as a whole down.
