Square Enix's Final Fantasy franchise is, has been, and will continue to be an essential name in the gaming world so long as there will be a console to host them. For decades now, we've fallen in love with the games that Square Enix has created for us, starting with the original Final Fantasy and all the way up to the newer, next-gen titles we play today. After all, who could forget those deep-in-your-feelings moments you had playing games like Final Fantasy VII or FFX? The importance that these titles have to the history of gaming cannot be understated.
And neither can the characters that inhabited these respective universes. What would these games be without heroes and heroines like Terra Branford or Cloud Strife? Or how about the villains we went up against, such as Sephiroth or Kefka Palazzo? They were integral to the experience, each and every one of them. With the recent relaunch of Final Fantasy XIV, and the announcement of the upcoming FFXV for the PS4 and Xbox One, we got to thinking: who are the Greatest Final Fantasy Characters of All Time? Can these new titles even hope to add to this historic roster? Take a look for yourself and see. But be warned, spoilers are aplenty here. This one is for true Final Fantasy players only.
