Great story, fantastic characters, amazing ost (as always), probably the best voice acting I've ever experienced in a video game, beautiful visuals, the best boss fights I've ever experienced, extremely fun and addicting gameplay...
If the game had to cut some stuff that previous FF games had to make room for all of the above, then I do not mind in the slightest. I admit, enemies having elemental affinities and having actual control over your party members would've been the cherry on top, but neither of those soured the experience in the slightest for me.
Absolutely my favorite FF game and it's not even close.

FFX:
Playtime: 77 Hours,
Rating: 4,5/5
FFX2:
Dropped, this shit is so boring, my god. Why did they change the battle system, it was literally perfect before. Only good thing about X2 is the humor, but thats not enough to make me sit through another 20 hours of this.

Truly amazing. Fixed the problems I had with BOTW (Story, Bossfights) and is probably in my top 10 games of all time now. Not a single complaint about this game comes to mind for me, only some things that I enjoyed less than others (Depths, New Sage powers).
I'm not someone who gets easily emotional during video games but this one got me teary-eyed a few times and I'm grateful to have experienced this absolute masterpiece.

Alright, is it overrated? Yeah, imo it kind of is.
Does that mean it's not a great game? Hell no.
I think it has aged pretty well in most regards with a good story, decent characters and great twists. (That have probably been spoiled for you, but whatever)
Gameplay-wise it's your traditional FF "turn-based" RPG. I'm more of a Persona/Megaten kinda guy, so not too big a fan of the ATB gauge but I got used to it fairly quickly.
I played the steam version, which I would advise against unless you really want your achievements. None of the Quality of life changes of other FF ports are implemented (3xSpeed,NoRandomEncounters,GodMode), setting up your controller is kind of a nightmare and you have to use a custom controller layout to even be able to use the D-Pad. So yea, just get the Windows Store version if you're planning on playing this game on your pc. Or emulate the switch port, idc I'm not your dad.

Absolutely amazing. I adore the story, the characters and especially the soundtrack. The only thing holding it back for me are some of the dungeons and the sometimes excruciating encounter rate. I really wish mainline smt had stories like this but I suppose the focus on narrative is mainly reserved for spin-off titles.

The Okumura arc made me drop the game for 4 months.
Aside from the barely existent difficulty of the game, I don't really have any complaints, it expands on Vanilla P5 perfectly and gave us probably the best final villain in the entire series.
Great music, great gameplay, great visuals. I would also like to mention that Atlus actually did a good job with the port, which is a rare occurence unfortunately.

Story and setting are amazing but the game can be really tedious to play.

Pretty fun, but way too easy even for 12 year old me.
Amazing, one of my favorite Pokemon games.
Great game but not a fan of the story.
Great successor to the original but I don't like the jojo stands mechanic.
Best gameplay in the franchise.
Love this game to death, my first proper JRPG that isn't Pokemon.
Pretty good.
