Ya the i liked the 1.0 soundtrack as a listening on my iphone, In game it was so clashing with the atmosphere, nothing ever fit the area of the world we were in.... Now if we were Garlean Soldiers on conquest with our future tech fine it might of fit with all the techno guitar riffs of electronichood. The current music makes it feel like a FF world, now they can use the Uematsu electronica when we start pushing into Garlean Empire territory where futuristic tech is everywhere...
I know all picky and everything, I loved 1.0 soundtrack but when I was in the game like I said... it ruined it for me haha.
Hoooooooly shit
I never got a chance to play 1.0 but On windy meadows sounds stellar! Because lord knows I don't like Limsa Lominsa/La Noscea's music all that much, pretty much bottom tier along with Ul'dah/Thanalan's themes.
But that 1.0 leve one sounds like something I'll never grow to love.
Regarding 2.0's battle theme, I prefer that more than anything.
Opinions.
Actually, Soken retained Uematsu's original 1.0 rental chocobo theme (called 'Bo-down' on the Before Meteor album) when riding a rental chocobo in ARR as well (it's also used when riding a Chocoporter). Eorzea de Chocobo is likewise retained for personal chocobos as you know.
As for On Windy Meadows, which indeed was used when riding the ferry to Limsa Lominsa as a new character, the new Aleport theme is also a subtle remix of it if you listen even slightly closely to it, which made me squee with delight when I heard it. ;)
Both were (are) great. I just wish they would still use more of the 1.0 music in 2.0...all of that beauty... Wasted, unused.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8v5aNzNfngM I miss this theme right here, I was like kick ass when I first heard it.
How I miss La Noscea's older theme <3
I miss a lot of 1.0's themes. I just wish the music kept playing in ARR and didn't randomly stop all the time.
I love them both, but ARR's wins out if only for "that" boss music :O
Was proper gutted the end of an era song wasnt on the CE music disc!
I enjoyed all of those tracks. I will miss some of the tracks from 1.0, tracks like Navigator's Glory from LL.
