I think FF6 is the hardest from all of the FF's I played 'till now.
(that would be; FFMQ, FF4, FF6, FF7, FF8, FF9.)
What do you people think? Is it the hardest....?
And what about Kefka, I think it's the most evil villain of the FF's.
Sephi follows very closely though...

Yeah, it is pretty hard, but not the hardest. Since it took me ages to beat FF8 and 7. Kefka is evil, but i reckon Kuja is more evil but that's just my oppinion.

I didn't think FF6 was hard at all. It was pretty easy for me and I enjoyed playing it a lot. Kefka is one bad mofo, but Zeromus from FF4 has more HP.

I thought it was easy. But I am no normal player. It took my 5 hours to bear the final enemy in FF8 and it took me ten minutes to beat Kefka.
I thought it was easy if you�d levelled up enough and got the ight equipment.

Final Fantasy VI is not the hardest, in my opinion. The hardest is probably Final Fantasy V, or Final Fantasy Tactics (overall, not just the end bosses). Tactics had some battles that i had to repeat multiple times (Wiegraf, in Riovanes...for you that have played tactics.) and in Final Fantasy V, Exdeath is hard when you fight him in the tree, and the final boss of the game is extremely difficult.

Not hard for me.. Its my very favourite FF and I never die in it. HUAH!

It was my first ff, and I played it in grade 5, what does that tell you?;) No, it's not the hardest. It's the best(imo), but not hard. The hardest for me was ff8. It took me a while to get used to the junctions and everything. At least ff6 wasn't using a totally different battle system. And the maps are pretty straight forward with the exception of the world maps.

<font color="4422BB"> out of all of them ive played (all cept 10 and Tactics) 5 is by far the hardest. </font>

It wasn't that hard, the boss battles with all the stuff are easy, if you know what to do and such and well... X zone .. hehe ^_^
I've played more difficult games.

Oh...man deffinetly the playstation version of FF4! GEEZ! how do they expect you to overcome a boss when you get to him your supplies all gone(enemies fault)your hp and mp is minimal(enemies fault)you have status ailments(enemies fault)and the bosses will kick your ass! now thats a FF.

Your fault for not preparing well enough ;)

Anyway, the hardest FF I've played is either FF2 or 3, no...not 4 or 6...the real 2 and 3 here...

I don't know why, they just seemed harder...

Rabid-monkey...i expected to someone to say something about that...I was just saying....WHO AM I KIDDING I SUCK!*sob**sob* About FF'S1-3 I never got a chance to play them.SQAURE please realease them for GBA!:PuppyDog:

Naw, with Gengi Glove, Life 3, Offering, Illumina, Ultima, the Vanish/Doom trick, and many MANY other things and the different skills, FF6 is not hard at all... If you know when to put a few levels on your chars, teh game is easy... very easy... once you know the ins and outs, its even EASIER... its semi challenging at points... but not the hardest no...

I think 5 is the hardest to me. Maybe I need to go back and learn how to use the jobs and abilities properly.

<font color="4422BB">FF2j was easy as hell though, although its the only FF game ive played and not finished. i spent 2 days at the start fighting goblins just to build up my stats and it was so easy i quit. and now i dont have an english version :( </font>

Well how could it get difficult if all you did was fight goblins.

Yeah, that makes it hard. FF7 is the hardest though. I'm only at lvl. 27 and haven't been able to beat the red dragon for about a month, so FFIV/II is the 2nd hardest. I've never played FFVI/III, so I dunno if it's hard or not, but my friend wants it like hell

I don't think FF7 (I was between level 26-36 with sephiroth who took three hours) was hard but I do think FF8 was hard (level 46)!
Took me four hours fight to get beaten by ultemicia and then another five hours to get beaten and then after five hours (not on one day off course;)) I beated her ass. That's liberation.

I can go through FF6 and almost never die. But FF4 you have to Plan each and Every boss fight. and severals different times in the game are Down right Impossible to get throu with out Leaving and going Back to a Town to restock Supplies. where in FF6 if you Just Level Up before Moving on You can accomplish what ever you are trying to do. Except for the Fanatics Tower that is. that is the Only Real tough Part in the whole darned game.

I thought FF6 was incredibly hard the first few hours or so, but after I leveled up it was okay I guess. However the enemies on the floating continent ware damn hard too, and so was the realy short time you were given to leave this continent. I had just about five seconds left!

After playing through FF4-8 I have to agree that FF6 is the hardest, IMO.

Ehrm, that was before I heard about the fact that you can use Doom and Vanish on bosses....

Still, it has some really pesky parts.

ff6 isnt that hard. its the countless hours of leveling up that gets me. im on the WOR, done all the side quests, have all the espers, all the characters, and just need to level up to a high enough level to beat kefka...... and mycharacters are level 50. im in trouble.

i dont think that ff6 was hard, it was a pre realest of 3. and the only difference they made was with the item and made them easier to use, if u guys r saying that 6 is hard, play 3, its hrader and u can run.

Keep Leveling Up!!!! At level 90 even Kefka is no Problem. remember that you have a Memory card right? just keep at it. it takes a little time. FFgames are not a race. enjoy each and evey fight. Go Back to Kefka's Tower, or the Aincient Palace. Which is in my opinion even better because the enemies are easier, and just about give as many experience points as Kefka's tower Enemies do. and if you haven't aquired all of Strago's Lores here is your next mission if you chose to accept it.::cool:

Just started playing FF6 on my PC as a SNES ROM and in my opinion it is quite hard, the enemies have quite high HP, but I enjoy it.

I've had like excactly the same thing. I leveled up 'till my average level was like 50 and learned the most magic with the fighters I had to count on(that would say everybody minus Relm&Umaro-hated those characters). Yesterday it was finally time to face Kefka for the first time in his final form. And....I won!!(with only Celes and her few HP, I was shakin) woohoo, I beat ff6. I was very glad because I had lots of struggles with the game and it was already the second time I played it over again. the end chinematic was cool, except for shadow's dicission, that was quite emotional. Anywayz It was good to see Terra became allright and finally happy.

Keep replying your meaning about how hard ff6 really is. (I still think its the hardest ff-but on the other hand; I've only played ff3/4, 7,8,9 so..).....

and I disagree with you . FF4 was alot harder than FF6. but this is my opinion thou. and I would Keep leveling up til 75 across the Board. that is my little secret.:cool:

Na I found FF7 the hardest as...well it just was!:PuppyDog:

FF IV (PSX version) wasn't hard at all IMO. I never died during the entire game until Zeromus kicked my butt for about five times. I'm just not into the whole levelling up thing.........I've beaten him at level 65 though.

I didn't think that FFVI was too hard; I beet Kefka the first time that I fought him. In fact, for the longest time, it was the only one that I beat. Now, I've beaten 4,6, and tactics, and I've almost finished 9.

Anyway, I don't think that it was too hard, if you really took the time to go through all the sub-quests, and tried to learn all the spells.

My best character right now is up to level 75, though, so I guess that made the whole ending of the game a lot easier.

IMO, the hardest are:

1. FF7
Normal enemies-none of the normal enemies were hard. I got killed a few times by the lightning birds on the way to Wutai, but only because Yuffie had nicked my materia.
Normal Bosses-Lost Number, Materia Keeper, Rapps and Godo all took me ages, and some of the others were hard too.
Super Bosses-very hard
Final Boss-He was easy

2. FF8
Normal enemies-the Ruby Dragons were hard and the Malboros were virtually impossible. Apart from that they were easy.
Super Bosses-Omega was very hard, and Ultima wasnt exactly cake either.
Normal Bosses-only one of them gave me any real trouble but I wont say which one because it'll make me sound really crap.
Final Boss-the hardest out of the FF's ive played

3. FF6
Normal Enemies-none of them are a problem
Normal Bosses-Only a few of them were hard
Super Bosses-There weren't any
Final Boss-havn't fought him yet, but from what ive heard hes easy

4. FF9
Normal enemies-the only remotely hard ones are the ones in Memoria
Normal Bosses-they were all defeated in 1 or 2 tries except for Tantarian, who took 3.
Super Bosses-Ozma was the only real challenge, he took me ages. And Hades? I dont even know why people call him a superboss.
Final Boss-A little harder than Sephiroth, but still easy.

You know I said that Ultimecia was the hardest Final Boss out of the FF's ive played? Well, ive just completed FF6, and I take that back. Kefka is harder.

Now that I've played both V and VI, I must say, I actually thought V was harder. It seemed like you ran into a lot more random battles and it was just harder in general. Overall, I thought VI's bosses were harder, but other than that, I didn't think it was really too tough.

BTW, FFVIII's boss hard? You're kidding. Just totally kick her ass with Squall's Renzokuken and all of your other characters best attacks and heal with the abundant healing magic and she's history.

For those of you having trouble beating the final boss on FF6 heres my tactic: Acquire the Cursed Sheild and uncurse it by equiping it one someone, unequiping their weapon (so they don't hurt as much, being confused and all) then fight 255 of those weak enemies on the island where Celes starts on the World of Ruin.
Once that is done the sheild will bcome a Paladin Shield and teach Ultima at a rate of 1.
Teach everyone Ultima and get them to level 50 and above and Kefka will pose no problems at all.
By the way the Cursed shield is in one of the houses in Narshe, an old man gives it to you.

Hope that helps

I didn't have the Paladin shield but I taught them all Ultima anyway... And I didn't get them to level 50 but to 99, an guess what, the final battle was almost too easy. Of course, the term "too easy" doesn't exist for me. It was pleasant.

Eh, parts of FFVI are somewhat challenging, ie the Tower of Fanatics and stuff, but it's not what I'd call a hard game. I think I was only in 5th or 6th grade the first time I beat it.

The final fight with Kefka was actually a big letdown for me. I went through all sorts of stuff to get there, and he turned out to be cake. As many times as I've beat the game though, I have yet to attempt taking down Kefka with only 3 characters. Maybe that'll make the fight a little more fun. ^^

FFV is the hardest in my opinion. Only FF released in the US that I have yet to beat. (Mystic Quest excluded).

Haha yeah... I'm playing it now actually. I went into the N-Zone and got my butt kicked at level 45 from the first battle. After the initial shock, "Ok... time to level".

dude why is everybody sayin ff8 was hard tactics was pretty easy to i got carried away at levelin up

you took 5 hours to beat ultimecia??????????
or did you restart the game? and then tried to beat ultimecia?

jeez,( did you have the best weapons? and what lvl where you? )

FFVI wasn't very hard for me, I beat Kefka in 3 rounds with my characters in the high 30's/low 40's for levels. The team of Cyan, Sabin, Terra, and Celes really laid a whoopin' on poor ol' Kefka.

The only bosses that gave me a problem were the ghost train and Doomgaze. Actually if we count Intangir (probably spelled wrong) from the world of balance then FFVI is the hardest game ever since there is no way I know of to beat that beast.

Intangir is extremely easy, since you just use Vanish-Doom. I don't know if you can get your levels high enough in WoB to beat it (unless you're insane and level to 99 or something).

FF6 is not really a hard game. It's my favorite FF, but a lot of other ones were harder. If you do lots of levelling, it's not difficult at all. It won't matter what equipment or relics you have or whether you optimized your stats with espers.

The hardest FF game I've probably played is FFT or possibly 7. I could never beat the weapons :(

As far as I know you can't learn doom or vanish or x-zone until the world of ruin, so Intangir is still impossible.

Of course you can. You get Phantom and Shoat from the Magitek Facility. Phantom has Vanish, Shoat has Doom.

X-Zone you are correct about.

Not hard at all.

didnt find FFVI that hard as i used the vanish doom combination on the dinosaurs in the forest in the 2nd world. this lets you level up quickly. You can also use it on most of the bosses e.g. atma weapon (first tine) and the dragons. I definately think FFV is harder, doesnt stop FFVI from being my (close) 2nd favorate, behind VII.

I agree with Dr. Chaos, FF4 is the hardest.
I thought FF6 was pretty hard when I played it for first time, but if you compare it to FF4, it's like nothing.

In my opinion, FF7 was the easiest.

If anyone thinks FF7 is the hardest or anywhere near the realm of difficulty, then they shouldn't be playing rpg's

I'd say it has a pretty good argument for being the hardest FF. I can think of several bosses who gave me trouble.....Number 128, Fire Eater and the ninja in Zozo....Dadasomething, to name but a few.

not that hard imo. well it would've been hard if it didnt have banish and death bug. but for sure this game is one of the game that i had to spend alot of time to level up and learn every magics from every espers. i still like FF6 more than FF7, FF9, FF10 :)

as for the easiest FF series i'd say FF10. way too easy -_-;; although FF7 was pretty easy too once you get knights of the round ;;

It is already pretty easy before you get Knights of the Round.

FF6 the hardest FF?


no. i beat it when my top level was 36 and my lowest was 28. All other FF's im at levels 50+ for final fights

FF8 is so hard!

i think vargas was hard first if you didnt know how to use blitz commands but nah not hardest and yeah kefka is insane

6 has never been hard for me... but I think I've spent more time playin it than any other... except 1 might come very close. I love the story of 6 so much, its awesome.

When you are able to level 3 characters to 99 and take 1 per party into Kefka's tower, and kill Kefka with just 1 alive (other 2 killed intentionally after arriving)... you know you have the game down pact. Its not too hard though when you can do 9999 damage a hit with the Genji glove and Offering (8 hits).... it only takes one round for poor Kefka.

Trick to level 99 is the Dynosaur forest... With the right gear, you can get a character into their late 40's and fight alone with him/her... get the Exp. Egg and you've got one fast leveler! I usually end up with more than 4 Economizers when doing this too...

I actually thought FFVI was one of the easiest FFs. I thought it was way easier than FFV ;).

FFVI was the easiest final fantasy that iv completed yet.

FF6 was easy, though 4 was even easier. ;(

I've played FF4-9 and Kefka was the pussiest main enemy. (NOT the final...) Golbez, Exdeath, Sephiroth, Kuja and Ultimicia kicked Kefka's ass. His laugh is funny, but that's where my love for him ends.

I don't think FF-VI was that hard. Maybe certain parts when I first played it, because I didn't train my characters well enough. ;)

Edna: FFVI is absolutely not the hardest.

Zulu: In our opinion FFVIII is the best but also the hardest.

are you fucking kidding me??? golbez, kicking Kefka, the mighty Kefka's ass?? man what's up with you, Kefka is like the most bad ass villain ever for a Final Fantasy game!!!

I thought it was easy. But I am no normal player. It took my 5 hours to bear the final enemy in FF8 and it took me ten minutes to beat Kefka.
I thought it was easy if you�d levelled up enough and got the ight equipment.

Well, shit I took Kefka out in no time with every single one of my characters casting Ultima, however I also took out Ultimicia and whatever other bosses or manifestations there were in VIII just as fast by never upgrading Squalls weapon until I got Lionheart therefore giving me a 50 percent chance of getting Lionheart limit break after casting Aura. I guess my point is it's all in how you play and no one game is harder than the next, it all depends on how much time you put into your characters.

I think FF2, cos of the damn level up system is the hardest - I could never get to grips with it :(

Are you kidding? FF6 was easy, I think FFT was the hardest, but just at the begining.

FF3/FF6, wasn't that hard except for that one part going up the magic tower thingy only using magic to get um........Relm's grandpa back with u guys and the part of confusing summoning

BTW:Y'know how some of the FF games have a Final unexpected boss at the end of the game? What about FF9? with the last boss, the one who used Grand Cross or sumthin, what's he got to do with the story?????

I think that final fantasy b6 is definitely the hardest of all of them and as for Kefka he is the only legitimate psycho in the entire set of games, the only one who plainly and simply wants to destroy the world. All the rest truly Believe they're doing the right thing, he just wants to kill everyone. =-O

FFVI was fun. Kefka was the easiet FF boss ever, I always beat Kefka every time I faced him and never weven equipted the best weapons. However, the rest of the game was a big challenge. Kefka is the only easy part of FFVI, the rest is very challenging. I think that Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy I is the hardest FF.

I think FF4 was harder than FF6. FF6 wasn't that hard, except some battles (if you don't know any tricks). If you can make it to Kefka, in the Tower, you can beat him too. True FF6-players don't have trouble with him.
It just depends on how hard you make it yourself.

Try doing Final Fantasy VI without any magic, that makes it sorta hard...

you know whats hard iv for slow klunky game play but its really good.

Why dont you try FF1 with 1 character? That or 4 of one character (besides fighter)?
