Final Fantasy VI is the rare JRPG that actually has the guts to let the bad guy win. While most games in the genre are busy chasing a standard hero's journey, this 16-bit masterpiece pivots halfway through, forcing you to navigate a shattered world after a maniacal clown-god succeeds in his apocalyptic plans. With a massive, diverse cast of characters and a hauntingly beautiful score, it trades simple tropes for a surprisingly mature look at loss and the will to survive. It is a landmark title that defined the genre, proving that even in a world of magic and airships, the most compelling stakes are the ones that leave a mark.
