It could just be DQ. I like a lot of JRPGs, including DQ1 and 3 (and 9) but found IV, V and VI impenetrably boring.

It's not even the most replayable FF.

>shit posters and retards constantly railing on it for being 'terrible,' causing me to be overly critical out of the gate.
To be fair, FFII's problems do outweigh its accomplishments. The combat system is interesting and innovative, however the way it was implemented ranges from too grind heavy to flat-out broken. The story is also very innovative, but its a real shame that it was the story Square reused another five times before the merger.

The name of the game in FFII is innovation, which is very commendable, but all in all it was executed pretty poorly. The story and characters are the only real shining gem, but it is hard to see how original it was(in the video game medium anyway) with IV, VI, VII, VIII and IX all having the same story as II done in better ways.
