I remember when playing ff8 and none of the summons held a candle to what the characters could do just on their own. then ff9, the summons come in way too late to be useful. ff5 I never saw the need to use them because the white magic healed better than the summons, and the black magic and time magic made the other summons irrelevant. ff6 the summons were useful for stat boost and giving magic, but you never really had any incentive to summon them. ff1 and 2 had no summons, ff10 the summons were useless. ff7 the summons were really, really useful! ff12...... I played it, beat it, got all of the summons, never used them because you give up all so, I ask when(besides 7) have they been useful for their intended purpose? they are there, but why?
