    Which one you looking to try?

    If you’re starting from the beginning, it’s clunky. The controls, the pacing, the acting. It’s all very dated feeling by today’s standards, but the story is genuinely worth playing, and the scares are still damn good.

        If you drop the first, I’d honestly say try 2, it was a step up, and after that, anything up until the Wii U one(Maiden of the Black Water) is pretty solid.

        Just be aware that after 2 until that Wii U one, it’s all Japanese vocals, afaik. The series stopped getting translated for awhile.

        EDIT: Both at work and stoned, forget the title, remembered it, fixed. It’s the fifth game.

          Thanks.

          (At first I was surprised FF series got to Wii U times, only to learn that Wii U is twelve years old. Damn I’m ancient)

            Shit, they ported that one even further on, too. Looks like the PC port was treated decently, it’s got higher review scores than I remember the first release ever getting.
