How Many Hours To Finish Every Final Fantasy Game?

You guessed it: you will need a lot of hours to beat every FF. But maybe not as many as you would think.

[MrNinosan]

According to Howlongtobeat and this post, 489 hours, not including any spinsoffs, sequels or the two MMO's (FFXI and FFXIV).

That means, 1 to 16 + 7 Remake, excluding X-2, XIII-2, Lightning Returns, XI and XIV.

I"ve actually been running through all main games myself, but doing Platinum runs on each, including the sequels (Excluding XI and XIV).

I have played through them all countless times thou, and in remasters where I could speed up combat and exp gain, I've used it.

Took me around 1100 hours on fresh account, but now I'm exhausted and super ready for Rebirth.

Best FF overall? Best Ff 1-6, Best FF7-9, Best FF 10 -16?

[Shane Kim]

7 and 9 are the best for me and they are generally favoured by the masses. Followed by 6 and 4. Then 16,10,8. I'm kind of indifferent between 1,2,3,5. Then 12,13 and 15 last.

[MrNinosan]

I don't want to divide them like you did.

Best FF for me, in order: (for me Story is most important)
Final Fantasy X
Final Fantasy VII
Final Fantasy VII Remake
Final Fantasy VI
Final Fantasy XVI

My first Final Fantasy was Final Fantasy VI, back in 1994.
My most played is FFXIV followed by FFVII.

Best FF1-6 = 6
Best FF7-9 = 7
Best 10-16 = 10

[FinalFantasyFanatic]

For me, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 for mainline games.

FF 16 and FF 10

Think I spent 489 on 7-12 alone 😂

I absolutely believe that the jumprope section in 9 is impossible on the PS4. It’s not platinumable.

[andy85]

It's not that bad really. The difficult part is the transition at 300 but if you get that then it's plain sailing to 1000 as the tempo doesn't change. When I was practicing for it I was getting to 300 maybe 3-4 out of 10 tries but couldn't nail the tempo transition. Once I did I did it.

[MrNinosan]

First time around I was stuck on that for about 5 hours.
This time, I did it within 1 hour.

But it's a fucked up trophy which I absolutely hate.

At this stage good luck you're better off picking a entry point and sticking with that
