A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I played it on my phone which nowadays is the port of the pixel remaster. I loved it and I thought it was great! I definitely felt a little overpowered due to not fleeing at all. I would recommend checking it out, I got just under 28 hours of playtime on my first run.
It's the Final Fantasy 1 Pixel Remaster. You can buy it on Steam, mobile, Switch, and PS4. As a vet, I definitely recommend it because they try to keep the gameplay and visuals similar to what it used to while making it less frustrating and more modern. 1-6 have all been remastered in this way and they're all very good.
My personal picks are V because of the multiclassing job system and VI for the incredible story. Despite its simplicity, FF I is a classic and I highly recommend it too.
Thanks for this info. I’ve always wanted to try some of the FF games, is there any benefit to playing them in order? I rarely manage to stick to a new game, so I’m wondering if I should just try one of the most recommended ones at first, then I can play the others if I liked it. (But I don’t want to spoil the story, if there’s much connecting them)
Like others have said, there's no reason to play in order, but to be more specific:
If you ask someone what their favourite FF is, 90% of people will answer something between 6 and 10, so you should probably start with one in that range.
1 is probably not worth playing at all, it hardly even has a story and is very simple.
2 is better, but I would say 3 is where it really starts to get good.
4 and 5 are also very liked and popular.
12 doesn't have the best story, but it's good and it has a lot of people's favourite combat system.
13 isn't bad, but a lot of people didn't enjoy it. I hardly hear people talk about it nowadays, but maybe that's just me.
15 is probably more liked than 13 but it also gets a lot of criticism. It's quite modern, though, so it's probably one of the easiest to get into for most people.
11 and 14 are MMOs. If you like MMOs, you should probably choose 14 because 11 is quite old and doesn't have a lot of players.
EDIT: Forgot to mention 16 because it just came out, but from what I hear a lot of people like it, so it may be a good entry point, although it's console exclusive.
2? Better than 1?
