Maybe when compared to modern games the controls and graphics aren't up to par, but at the time of release it was an incredibly innovative game. To judge it based on today's standards is unfair.

By what you're saying, that makes it the most popular Final Fantasy, not the best. And besides, who can determine the best Final Fantasy on characters alone? If that were the case, then Final Fantasy IX or III would be the best solely because of how epic the villains are. I think if you're talking about gameplay, story, characters, and graphics, then there really is no best Final Fantasy. Just amazing games with their few flaws. But it's nice to have our favorites, isn't it?
