FF9 was a great game! I had only played FF7 (favourite!) before this and I did notice a huge difference, but I really enjoyed it! Like FF7 it all seemed fun but then I played FF8 after and found FF8 much less fun and less enjoyable because of this! Seemed too serious inna way... just hoping they continue to make the fun ones!!

FFIX is my second favourite FF game. The only thing that strikes out to me why people wouldn't like it because of the art design after FFVIII and with new FF fans might not be too happy with that. I nevermind them though because I know this is a great game.

The most common complaint I get is the characters look "cartoony" and chibified. Never thought the art stylings were terrible by any means; "the first two discs were kinda slow plot-wise" is a much more reasonable nitpick, since it's actually got legitimized to a degree. Why people obsess over adequate yet different graphics, I'll never know.

I actually though that this was one of the better FF games. I really liked the storyline. I guess some people didn't expect that kind of storyline because it was fan-based. But who knows, they might just be retarded.

@Shotgunnova

Thats funny considering FFIX is graphically better than VII and VIII as far as FF games on the PS1 go. Although I think its stupid to hate a game for the character designs. If someone cant see past something they don't like and see something even better they shouldn't be allowed to judge.

Thats just the way I see it.

Quoted by Seloan: FFIX was my first and favorite Final Fantasy. Might be my favorite game of all time.

I've only played VII, IX, and X though.

I'm exactly the same! I thought FF VII sucked but everyone else thinks its the best! But I loved Advent Children!

I finally came to my senses and decided to play it again only a couple of months after completing it although this time I plan to do a lot more sidequests. Just got to Dali and this time being more prepared, I have a decent inventory for the moment. God I love this game, not far in the game and already spotted some good quotes.

(Cinna busts in when Zidane and Garnet try to escape)
Zidane: Don't worry Princess, it's my friend Cinna.
Garnet: Oh really? I am sorry. You startled me.
Zidane: Well, with a face like this, I'd be pretty shocked, too!
Cinna: Man, that hurts! I wash every morning, you know!

(Zidane's reason to save Garnet)
Zidane: I can't sit around knowing a girl's in trouble. Goes against my nature.
Blank: Whatever. You're full of crap.
Zidane: Ohhh... I get it. You're jealous that I'm gonna get me a sweetie pie.
Blank:
Pshhhh... She's not even my type. I came down here to give you this.
Zidane:
You're always thinking about me... but I won't need a love potion to reel this one in.

The humour works well in this game.

People just don't like this game soley because FF7 came before it. I mean people are to pickey now-a-days. I'd say it was one of the better FF in the series.
