I’ve been wanting to jump in on the final fantasy universe for a while now but I’m not sure where to start.
To be clear, I don’t have hundreds of hours to play the whole series. Someone told me that each game tends to be somewhat separate from the series as a whole.
So what is the most recent game in the series that I can start with that is worth it to play and wouldn’t confuse a newcomer?
Start with the most recent one, then try out the classics VII and IX. I’m partial to X and XII, myself, but that’s personal preference. Plus, X was the first FF game featuring full voice acting, if that’s your thing.
