FFIV - Worth Getting?

Since this topic crops up so much, I figured I'd make a topic and sticky it.

Is this game worth getting? Please post your replies so that people who cannot decide can read this to make their decisions.

Heck yes. FFIV is a must-play, IMO. It was the first FF game I ever played, and I loved it right away. If I had played a different game first (FFV, for example), I'm not sure that I would have ever really gotten into the FF series as much as I have. I HIGHLY recommend this game.

Yes! FFIV is a great game - and it introduces many things that became staples to the FF series - until XII - and its damn fun too.

its also a great FF game to get if you want a challenge.

Hell yeah! This was the first Final Fantasy that truly told an epic story in a more linear style. Battle style is typical FF stuff.

Basically, this one was the true trend setter of the franchise. The first three were just pale prototypes, whereas this was the first full-fledged Final Fantasy as we know it.

FFIV is one of the best in the series, the Story in engulfing and amazing for it's time. The Characters all have unique personality and the world if huge!
It's a must play for any true FF fan.

Yes I would recommend this game. It's one of the more challenging FF games and it was the first to feature characters with their own personalities rather than generic ones. And it introduced many staples of the Final Fantasy series.

You may have to have patience with this game since it may be slow paced compared to the later titles. And if you really love pretty graphics, then this game is not for you.
