Most Infuriating FF

For me it's FFX hands down, the sidequests are so bloody annoying Getting some of those sigils made me want to kill someone, srsly

The Dark Aeons are also a pain in the arse, they are just such swines. I have been working on the same file for as long as I can remember

Getting round tha sphere grid is a time consuming pain in the backside aswel

This however is also why X is one of my fave games ever because I actually feel like I have achieved something when I FINALLY beat a hard boss (or dodge 200 lightning bolts in a row )

It's just so bloody infuriating

Yeah, it was X for me too. The sidequests are what got me! Especially dodging the two hundred lightning bolts. I'd rather be doing something else. Besides, when I get mad, I don't play for a week and then I miss out on good gameage. Seriously though, the chocobo race deal. Just no. No . No. No. I never got that either. xD I'm hopeless.

FFXII.
I'd have loved that game, if 70% of the game time wasn't spent on side quests. Not to mention...side quests with no real prizes, since the Espers were a waste of effort, and there was always plenty of money, making the hunts not so necessary.

FFVIII, the controls were clunky, I hated the battle system and the storyline and characters make me want to die.

And, by the 15th attempt, I didn't really CARE if Rinoa was lost in space forever.

Mystic Quest... the gameplay, the story, the effort it takes, everything... its just pathetic... Legend 1-3 and Adventure would easily be runners up, though. All those games sucked, and spending my money on games that suck really tends to piss me off... and then there's Crystal Chronicles... heh... yeah... lots not even go there.

Probably Final Fantasy Tactics. All the business with leveling up jobs to acquire different classes got to be a pain. Tactics required a different approach.

Great game, but I found myself getting annoyed with it often.

XII. Game made me constantly feel like I was PMSing. So many things about that game pissed me off:

1. Having to walk EVERYWHERE. Exploration is fine and dandy, but I do not want to spend 50% of my game time walking everywhere. Even with teleport crystals there is still an assload of walking.

2. Time limits on chocobos. Seriously, what idiot came up with that idea?

3. I couldn't play for Archades. They had the right motives and the most interesting characters (like Cid), but noooo, I had to help a stuck-up, ungrateful, spoiled brat get her precious nethicite and help the Occuria stay in control.

4. Summons were complete shit. You couldn't command them and half the time they were too stupid to unleash their strongest attack before they got killed from being bum rushed.

5. At lvl 99, everyone's highest HP was approximately 6000. It was a pain having to either keep the bubble belt on or use the spell constantly and drain MP. Given the massive amounts of damage some hunts and optional bosses could deal out, a break HP limit would have been really nice.

6. That damn bazaar. I'm used to synth shops being expensive, but the bazaar prices were just ridiculous. And to make matters worse, you had to have extremely rare items, some of which were near impossible to get unless you were a high enough lvl to survive the monsters you had to obtain them from (and by then it was likely you didn't even need to bother with stronger weapons).

7. The goddamn chest spawns. This was hands down the most infuriating aspect of the game. Games get you used to the whole "work your ass off, get to a hard area, open the chest and you get a win item." But nope, they had to toss that out in XII and instead go for "work your ass off, get to a hard area, open a chest and now you have a CHANCE to get a win item." Complete and utter bullshit. I don't know how many times I spent running back and forth three screens to get chests to respawn.

I really could keep complaining about this game all night, but I cba to list out everything.

^ He pretty much summed it up.

FFXII was soo infuriating!!! It took me FOREVER to do all of the sidequests, not to mention the leveling up it took in order to complete them. If you add that to everything Carnage said, this game made me use more than a few choice words.
