Just got the 463 hour long soundtrack to this game. its great. Anyone else dig it ?
XIV has an amazing OST, I agree. I plan on getting the full soundtrack soon.
I think my favorite song in the entire game is the one from the Ultima Weapon elevator fight.
I do love the music in this game. I am actually shocked when some people say they can't stand it, but I guess they are entitled to that opinion.
i still thibk this games soundtrack is garbage compred to FFXI. my opinion of it might be higher if FFXI didnt exist.
I have the soundtracks of XI and XIV and I have to say they both stand on their own rather nicely and fit their respective games well. XI's soundtrack has a somber, relaxed feel but then the game is also somber and relaxed. XIV's is more lively to fit a more lively game. I really can't call one better than the other because that would suggest I like one less, and like them both! Best money I ever spent, would buy again!
Love the OST, ..and glad it's closer to FFXII's OST than FFXIII's...
the OST of FFXIV not only s great, it also fits into the settings very well..
the only downpart is during the beginning, when you're often in the same area(s), then the OST can start to repeat it's self a bit too much.... otherwise later on and you if you varie a bit between areas, it's like a Fantasy Opera with a magnificent stage.. (beatifull OST with wonderfull and fluid landscapes...)...
only a hand full of games achieved this feeling with during the last years..., the last time was with Skyrim (& Xenoblade)..
(EDIT: I didn't play FFXI...)
It's pretty good (I have both albums), but I think XI's soundtrack is even better. FFXIV's soundtrack would probably gain, if I had more memorable moments associated with certain tracks, but while I enjoy the game, I'm certainly not as involved as I was a decade ago.
I remember my first Titan fight (story mode) and the music there, probably because its change in pace and style. Kind like the Royal Ripeness flan in FXIII-2. From the regional tracks, I think Thanalan and Coerthas are most memorable.
Love the OST. I only wish they'd go back and change some of the older dungeons to loop the dungeon music, like in the new Hardmodes, instead of cutting out to silence and playing the generic battle theme. I mean, the battle theme is nice, but...Pharos has the best intro ever and it only lasts all of 1 minute, usually just long enough for the Tank and Healer to drop from the party.
