Final Fantasy 2 why the hate?

When I see worse FF games, 2 always gets some mention, but after playing it thanks to the playstation network, I have have to think why it even made the list.

The story is great, 3 youths, Frioniel, Maria, and guy gets there home destory by a evil empire loseing Leon, the 4th member at the start of the game, were did he go?

As I got though this game and work on the odd level up system which is pretty neat considering its only the 2nd game in the series, Yeah you can cheat it, but over all I think its better than 8's draw system ten fold. And 8 is sort of consider a classic. I found the story pretty strong, from people dying for the rebel cause and fighting against being inslave. To the empire having its own deathstar lol. Which your team will have to deal with.

Leon has a very deep story line of dreams of power and being in line to having nothing in a flash near the end of the game. I about to beat it, but found the game to be one of the best of the ff series. Were did the hate come from?

It has a great story line but some problems with spell mechanics. Having to level up heal spell was a pain especially on multiple players. Debuffs like curse and toad were fun in role play sense but not practical. Buffs in this game were far more useful. Oh and running into two giants in Deist with a low level group was crap.

I had the HP about 1500?? When I reach Deist. That cave had some strong monsters in there, and I needed the extral HP to deal with the Giants. 1 was ok, but 2 and hitting for like 300 a hit, I needed to use the sleep sword to put one or both asleep.
