Where to even start with Final Fantasy? (beehaw.org)

I’ve been wanting to jump in on the final fantasy universe for a while now but I’m not sure where to start.

To be clear, I don’t have hundreds of hours to play the whole series. Someone told me that each game tends to be somewhat separate from the series as a whole.

So what is the most recent game in the series that I can start with that is worth it to play and wouldn’t confuse a newcomer?

My personal favorite is original FF7, but in terms of presentation, it's very dated.

If you don't mind linearity, FFX is well beloved by the mainstream audience, has good story, voice acting in cutscenes.

I don't want you to accidentally choose, say FF12, which is a great game, but bit of an acquired taste.
