Before Meteor and ARR soundtrack discussion

[ispano]

3 of my Computers have BD-R drives, so no issue here. I just hope mp3 isn't the ONLY format. Hope they put them on in something a bit better quality too.

The soundtrack is way out of my budget that I can spend for music, but I love the soundtrack! Limsa Lominsa's Day theme has got to be my favorite. It really makes me image a harbor/port town when I listen to it. Amazingggg

The Dark's Embrace has been my cell phone ring tone for ages.

There are a few tracks from 1.0 that I really enjoyed, but Soken went overkill on the new soundtrack for ARR. He very quickly became my favourite game composer and I can see him being referred to as the new Uematsu. His music is fresh and wonderful, and nearly every track I've heard so far in ARR has affected me positively.

I can hear a lot of inspiration throughout his tracks. I'm pretty sure one of the new Thanalan themes is based on the overture from Lawrence of Arabia for example. His music is beautiful and filled with spirit, really takes you into the environment.

I've just received mine today - yay! One question - where does/did "Piece of Mind" play? I love that track

[Yukagama]

Plan to get this soundtrack as it's part of my legacy!!

I just can't warrant the price, as much as I'm tempted. It has some great tracks, and my OCDness makes me want the stupid minion...
Having a blu-ray drive isn't very common, and there's no legitimate excuse for not having CDs included. It's not like they'd up the manufacturing costs much. :P Oh well, enjoy it.

I am absolutely amazed at Masashi Hamauzu (FF13/13-2). Not a HUGE fan of 14's soundtrack but it definitely has its moments and the various themes are composed well but Hamauzu's melodies have more impact for me. The main FATE music and a few town themes are memorable for sure but not much else has quite grabbed me. Not a BAD soundtrack by any means but just not that great imho.

Got my (signed) copy @ Gamescom. It's a good buy!
I'm a big fan of XI/XIII osts, Naoshi Mizuta & Masashi Hamauzu, but XIV has good tracks too.

If u go to the website provided on the slip, it says it will be available to redeem at official release on the 27th.

I tried entering 20-digit Dalamud pet code at same place as preorder code, gave me "Invalid Code". Hopefully I didn't mess up something . Looks like we can't get pet in EA, need to wait till 27th.

You can't get Pre-order and CE items in EA either, so no surprise there.
