Ranking All Mainline Final Fantasy Games

#9. FINAL FANTASY 10

Final Fantasy 10 was the culmination of the series’ turn-based era, and it certainly felt like it. It had a strictly turn-based combat system, which also allowed you to swap party members during battles on the fly, and a solid progression system, both of which made the actual gameplay a ton of fun. Meanwhile, the story, thanks to its beautifully rendered setting and a few standout characters, really stood out as well. Like Final Fantasy 13, FF10 was also a very linear affair- but unlike the former, Final Fantasy 10 actually used its linearity well. With time, some of the game’s aspects that drew a lot of praise back when it first launched – such as the voice acting – have aged quite poorly, but overall, it’s still a great game to go back to, especially for hardcore series fans.
