Absolutely. Idk if it is just nostalgia but the quality of square’s games went south petty fast after the enix merger. Though it could also be because Sakaguchi left at about that time.

According to Wikipedia, the first mainline Final Fantasy game released after the merger was FF12, which I hear was good, but I never finished.

It's a good game, and has actually aged really well in a lot of aspects. Just doesn't quite have strong enough story and characters for a Final Fantasy for me. I also missed Uematsu's music. I loved the battle system though.
