I like 4,5, 9, and 12 all more than 7 as an adult.

But 7 was a cultural phenomenon, and it devoured my teenage imagination when it came out.

When I was a kid, I didn't really get into RPGs until after 7 was already out. I got into Arc the Lad, Jade Cocoon, and FF8 on the PS1. When I tried to go back and play FF7, it looked so ugly, I had a hard time connecting with it.

As an adult, the story and mini-games were frustrating. The obsession with the game is annoying as well. Although it's undeniable the impact it has had on gaming.

For the record, I've beaten 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 13-2, 15, 16, Crisis Core, Dissidia, Dissidia 012, Theatrhythm Final Bar Line

Yeah that's basically my story, but you've beaten more than I have.
