It sure seems that way to me. Uninteresting characters (except for Gilgamesh), super bland protagonist, mediocre villain and story. I haven't played much of III, so maybe that one was worse. But I've read that people who played it quite like it. And while the original Final Fantasy has a pretty bare-bone story, I think the end-of-game plot twist alone is enough to make that story more worthwhile than V's.
