Please get Naoshi Mizuta to re-do this disastrous soundtrack

[darkstarpoet1]

i keep the music off in game to be honest unless i am in mor dhona. i'd rather hear my players feet hit the ground while running than listen to the music.

To the OP you need to listen to the whole sound track. It may not be his best but it is no where near bad.

The music is the one thing in this game that should not be considered for changing.

I listened to every track. Most of it is pretty bad and hardly any of it suits the game HOWEVER, this shit right here:

Amazing track. Shame it's wasted on lame piss easy faction leve "bosses". Notice how it actually sounds good and there's no crazy guitar/synth nonsense.

The soundtrack is great but, like many other things, badly implemented. Most of the tracks are too quiet or else implemented in the wrong area. There's 72 tracks on the soundtrack yet I can only remember hearing about 20 different songs in the entire game, and 3 of them are only in the beginning.

Yo! The soundtrack is ok!

While there are a few decent (not exceptional) songs here and there, the FFXIV soundtrack as a whole is a big mess and /largely/ underwhelming. There just isn't much worth salvaging. Just look at the title track. "The land's alive so believe." Hands down the worst Final Fantasy song ever. I haven't met a soul who has enjoyed that song. Even Koda Kumi's songs from FFX-2 were 1000x better.

I think that along with all of the gameplay changes being made, it is important to also make the music suit the game. I for one hate all of the electric guitar music in FFXIV made by Nobuo Uematsu. In fact, there are multiple threads on just how crappy the music is. The man has done good work in the past, but most recently, he's a flop.

If anyone is to re-make this bunk soundtrack, I think that it should be Naoshi Mizuta who did an amazing job on the ToAU and WotG soundtrack for FFXI. To me, they were even better than the original songs. He could do /wonders/ for this title.

Rate up if you agree.

Nobuo Uematsu musical scores far surpass Naoshi Mizuta. Look up the Final Fantasy XIV distant worlds pieces and then re post your thread stating "I'm sorry for knowing nothing".

By the way.

XI's soundtrack was a collab between N. Mizuta, Kumi Tanioka and Nobuo Uematsu. That's excluding POL songs.

How does that help us, though? That was after he refined the pieces more, and it's definitely not what we have in-game.

Nobuo Uematsu takes an extreme amount of pride in his work and short comings found in a OST on a game are from the gaming company, in this case Square Enix.

Square Enix is constantly rushing and cutting content out of games.

Nobuo/Kumi only worked on the original XI OST (which I will admit does have some of the stronger tracks), but RoZ+ is all Mizuta. And we know what RoZ means:
