I have played most of the KH games (all of them apart from (Re)Coded, Re:Chain, and Dream Drop Distance), but I dunno. What really stands out in the games for me is really only the music. I don't really like the characters/story/gameplay all that much, and I only really enjoyed KH2 and BBS - but nothing in the other games really stood out in particular for me. I didn't really like 364/2 Days all that much. Didn't care for Chain of Memories all that much either. KH1 was OK, I didn't think it was all that great, friends liked it a lot but I honestly thought the gameplay was kind of boring. I played it after I played KH2 though, so I guess I was expecting way too much on the gameplay side of things. The other issue was the camera was way too close to Sora, and the field of view was really small for a 3rd person game. I just kept getting headaches after an hour or so of gameplay. Don't get me wrong though, I don't actually HAAATE the series. I'm just not sure about a lot of the design decisions they are making.. lol. I do actually think the developers are designing the story to be as confusing and upside-down (?) as possible, and I don't really like the way the writers direct the characters through the story (talking about BBS, by the way).
As for the Final Fantasy games, I do enjoy most of them (probably played them all as well except for XIII-2, and II.. and that phone exclusive one, I think it's called Dimensions?).. I don't really hate XIII but the biggest problem I found with it was that I felt that the characters weren't very... compelling I guess? In my opinion, the game had some of the best boss fights in the series - 13 and 12 actually. Favourite games in the series are probably FF6 and FF9 -- hell, I probably like every game in the series to some extent.. apart from some of the spinoff games.
