Touch Arcade: "For everyone but the most stalwart FF fans (and I implore even them): this trip down memory lane isn't worth it."
Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "The Final Fantasy series is one of gaming’s most revered franchises with many of its games finding themselves near the top of ‘best games of all time’ lists and simply uttering the words ‘Final Fantasy’ usually evokes images of epic quests and world class polish. But not all of the games to bear the name have been worthy of praise. Some, in fact are terrible, unplayable, ugly and obnoxious games that make you wonder how Square Enix ever approved them. So for this week’s Top 10 we’re scraping the bottom of the barrel and counting down the Top 10 Worst Final Fantasy Games."
Addition of FFXIII Lightning Returns and Crystal Bearers make your list redundant.
Though I appreciate the lack of FFX-2.
And I agree with the rest.
Wait on further thought, the inclusion FFVIII would be nice. Terrible writing, terrible story, terrible gameplay and terrible translation. And therefore a terrible game.
Since when is After Years or Lightning Returns bad?
This article is garbage, the absolute worst FF, Final Fantasy XIII is nowhere to be seen.
Also, why include a game that doesn't even exist anymore? FFXIV 1.0 is long gone...
Lightning avatar and mad about Lightning Returns being on the list!? https://www.youtube.com/wat...

Big franchises often take advantage of their fame and appeal with a variety of spin-offs. The RPG juggernaut Final Fantasy is no different and throughout the years it has experimented with many different flavors. Some worked out much better than we ever expected; others were complete disasters. One thing is certain: Final Fantasy spin-offs aren’t going away.
Square Enix just launched Final Fantasy Explorers this week in North America and World of Final Fantasy is currently in development. But we didn’t want a list that just discussed ‘respectable’ games like Crisis Core or Revenant Wings or select average titles like Final Fantasy: Chocobo’s Dungeon and Final Fantasy Dimensions. What good does that do? We wanted to zoom in on the best creations, while also looking at the games that went horribly wrong.
On the heels of Square Enix's announcement of Final Fantasy: World Wide Words, Stephen from Leviathyn reminisces on the best and worst Final Fantasy spinoffs.
Too bad
Lol square enix cant even make mobile games anymore, not sure if they can make anything decent these days. The company is just a sinking ship at this point, and only have themselves to blame for making incredibly dumb decisions this gen.
They must be making bad games on purpose at this point.
I wish I could just go up to Wada and smack him. Tell him to get the hell out, and put someone competent in charge of SquareEnix. I'm pretty sure ANYONE will do. ANYONE besides him...
I picked this game up before there were any reviews and wasn't very impressed at all, I expected to at least be able to pick the party members or gear my characters. The Gil you earn each round has no point since there's no shops to buy stuff from, but the one thing I enjoy is seeing what new jobs I get every level or two. Seeing a geomancer or berserker or samurai for a first time puts a smile on my face and I can't really explain why. I wouldn't recommend this game to anyone really, it's too bad SE decided to put no strategy in this game, gearing characters, equipping gear, and setting usable skills could have made this game a lot more fun to play.
