GRIN says SE sucks..

It really seem to be a new trend to hate FFVII.

Not a new trend for me, I've hated it since it was originally released. It was difficult for me to get into the story, and I couldn't connect with the characters. I developed no emotional attachments to them like I do in other FF games. I wasn't sad at all when Aeris died, just shocked. And if you don't care about the characters, you don't care about the story or the game. It was a chore to even finish it.

My favorite in the entire series was FFVI. I must have played it start to finish at least 20 times.
