This is the worst one. This is the worst Final Fantasy. This is easily worse than popular punching bags like XIII and Spirits Within. There is no competition. There was no endgoal here, there was no vision. They took bits and pieces of 10+ years of cancelled projects and threw it at the wall and not a single thing stuck. This is Final Fantasy's worst story, worst setting, worst battle system. Zero sense of pacing, framing, structure. There's not a single reason to go back to it other than to think of what it could have been, a cruel sort of learning experience.
