Have anyone suggestion regarding to the Final Fantasy?
I am very big fan of the Final Fantasy and completed almost all the series of the game.
 
Just what exactly are you asking? If you've completed almost all the FF games, then obviously you don't need suggestions or to ask if it's good.
 
Final Fantasy VIII is a good place to start.

The battle system is simple enough while being interesting towards the end of the as more Abilities and Moves are acquired. The item collection plays a direct part in the collections of weapons with all weapons having to be constructed.

Story wise, its not as deep as some other FF games, but it keeps you interested with various missions and plot twists. So definitley a good place to start, l can't go any further without risking spoilers!
 
this game was the 1st final fantasy i played then i played ff8 then 10, yea weird combo but i think this is the best game to start with. I also have played ff cronicols but hated it as i dint kno what to do XD
 
Personally, I began with Final Fantasy VII. Only because when it came out, my dad and uncle used to play it every day and my 5-6 year old self (To be honest I'm not sure how old I was...) got very intruiged and wanted to play it. I was young then so I was just hooked on the series due to the influence from my family, not really the games.

I would say working your way up chronologically is a good way to start. I mean, you get to see it's roots and how the game evolved and developed. But, for some people that's not so easy, but I would say to start with FFVII, then VIII, then IX...

But since this is the FFVIII part of the forum, it would be a good place to start. It was the first in the series to have 4 discs, if I remember correctly. The story is, as previously mentioned, not very deep but it's also unique and gets very interesting in it's own way. A lot more easy to understand than FFVII's story, and it has a lot to do. :)

Plus... it has Irvine! (; (<- Totally irrelavant comment)
 
well im not shure, i gave ff8 and ff9 to my friends to start from there, but some of them got in the game completely but others couldn't figure out the leveling system, its different in every game and junctoning in ff8 was hard. its just that the new players eed to know that in ff there are too many little things that can help them reach the end easely, too many details: like, if u want the best blue magic for quistis u need to win a couple of times in the card game with the wright person and u will get her card and than when u desamble it u will get tha magic.
 
It was my first Final Fantasy game and it got me hooked onto both Final Fantasy and RPGs altogether. Its a good story, great characters, wonderful OST and a battlesystem that needs some getting use to! But once you overcome it, the game is just wow! How it starts is amazing, intro is astounding!
