You're thinking of daggerfall

As a huge fan of the first 6 games I find myself biased against VI. When I talk to certain FF fans they seem to think its the only pixel FF game worth anything. Its obviously a fantastic game but I would personally rank it lower than IV and V.

I thought the Eidolan system in this game wasn't great, and the game felt stiff in a way that is hard to put into words. Still it's one of the best games on the SNES.

Not unpopular back in the day but it sure is now -- Battlefield 1943. I play on xbox all the time, the servers are still online and you can still find full lobbies. I've been playing it on and off for a decade. Its just chaotic low-stress fun.
