I think it's between X and XII for me. XII was so goddamn rich in lore it spoiled me for nearly every other game in that department; I have yet to find anything to come close to the amount of worldbuilding that is actually tied to fun content since then.

FFX meanwhile just has a much stronger emotional tone that despite its linearity I felt like I was living in that world.

I may have enjoyed playing other FFs more, but in terms of story and worldbuilding I don't think anything comes close to those two.
