FAVOURITE CLASSICAL FF TRACKS?

author=kentona
yeah, had to check out a youtube vid of the OST. And nothing really made an impression on me. It feels like... he just lazily made a sequel to FF4's soundtrack, and never really pushed any new boundries or explored any new sounds or melodies. Like, just polished off some scraps and leftovers and outtakes from his work on FF4 and called it a soundtrack for FF5

I remember reading somewhere that FFV was a structure originally designed for the NES, and the music composition and jerky attack animations support this. But it would be interesting to know if that were true or not.

My three:
FFIII: Overworld theme
FFV: Void map
FFIV: Boss Battle (Normal)

If we can name games after VI, I opt for this from Final Fantasy VII.

Classic? What about ff13? That's like so old.
I like <insert any of the same sounding songs on the album> best in ff13.

FF13 is definitely not my favorite, but it had a few decent songs. The battle theme wasn't bad, and I liked The Archylte Steppe... But most of it was forgettable.

Yeah, I was being facetious...

FF4:
#1 - Red Wings
#2 - Fight 2
#3 - Mt. Ordeals

FF6:
#1 - Magitek Research Facility
#2 - The Veldt
#3 - Edgar & Sabin's Theme

FF7:
#1 - One Winged Angel
#2 - Crazy Motorcycle Chase
#3 - Still More Fighting

FF8:
#1 - Mods de Chocobo
#2 - Force Your Way
#3 - The Man With The Machine Gun

FF9:
#1 - Final Battle
#2 - Hunter's Chance
#3 - Black Mage's Village

FF10:
#1 - Otherworld
#2 - To Zanarkand
#3 - SUTEKI DA NE

The rest of them, like 2, 3, 11, 12, 13, and so on, I haven’t played as of yet. As for 1 and 5, I did play them for a while back a long time ago when I was much younger but don’t really remember too much of them to give them a proper list. One of these days I’ll go back and play those games again, especially 5, because I actually enjoyed it for a little bit before I just suddenly stopped.

Also - and nobody take any real offence to this - but, IMO, listening to most of FF7 and FF8 tunes again for the purpose of doing this list, I don’t think they’ve really aged that well for me... There’s a couple of good ones in there, for sure, but a lot of them just…don’t really sound that impressive to me anymore… I guess my musical tastes over the years have changed my outlook on things.

FFXI's got some pretty good music!

manliest soundtrack of the series. /*u*)/ <3

When it's not just playing silence and wind sounds, I guess. Which unfortunately is like 90% of the time.

No it's not because you clearly meant to link to the real best music track of the game!
e: replace link because the old video was bad, jfc youtubers

All this negative talk about FFxi is bullshit. I'm not even going to get into why because you guys are unreasonable when you've made up your minds. You are wrong, though.

I mean, I don't even like the music. Back in 2002, I created a music hacking guide for FF11 to let people replace the music (and the wind sounds, because so many areas don't even have music) with their own custom music. I was really pissed and bitter about Uematsu not being the sole series composer any more. So I don't know why I'm now suggesting he go download the soundtrack! Weird.

You are welcome enjoy whatever games you want, though. I haven't actually played FF11 since launch, I don't know anything about the game any more, and I can't remember most of what I used to know. All I really know is that the music makes me nostalgic for subligars.
