Most folks will list one of the ones in 7-10 as their favorite. All of which are after the switch to 3d from 2d sprites, and are generally classic style turn based RPGs. 6 is my favorite out of the 2d sprite era, with a solid story and good gameplay. 11 and 14 are the MMORPGs, 14 being one of the more popular (deservingly so) MMOs on the market. 12-15 have their quirks and can be fun, but each has their issues. Final Fantasy Tactics is also an incredible game, and has one of my favorite job/class systems out of all the games.
Most FF games are going to be turn based RPGs at their core, even if some hide it a bit more. There are a few random offshoot games that might be different, but those usually rely on having played the main game it was based on.
