Please get Naoshi Mizuta to re-do this disastrous soundtrack

[Shai]

I honestly dislike FF8 and FF10 OSTs. A strong (none-SNES) Uematsu battle theme to me would be:

I do agree that some of the tracks in XIV have that old school Nobuo FF feel to them but at the same time I think they lack the creativity of his past work that really makes it stand out. Not only that, but again, the soundtrack doesn't really suit the game. I do appreciate you for not flaming me though. It's just like, my opinion, man.

Yeah, dood, this is one of my favorite FF battle tracks of all times.

But that's because it's such a throw back to the NES / SNES days (as much of IX was meant to be). I mean this song (and several other IX songs) remind you what it's like to be playing a Final Fantasy game 1-6 anyway. They need to do another IX style game where they reuse and revamp old ideas.

I like VII but I feel like it killed the series. I could pretty much live without VIII, X, XII, XIII.

XI & XIV are kind of their own branch off which have their ups and downs in my opinion of the "whole series" as it were.

It's odd to me, though, that you don't like "Man with a Machine Gun" or "Battle with Seymour." One of the most redeeming things about VIII in particular was its OST.
