Awesome soundtrack all I got to say!

Before I go look at this, does it have lyrics sung by an Idol, or it just Uematsu again.

Uematsu again? he didnt do first one. But no Idol singing.

I was referring to Final Fantasy overall lol... What! Square needs more Japanese Idols.

Make Koda Kumi sing something even though shes basically gone underground after that whole amniotic fluid incident.

I hope they realize adding QTEs to the boss battles doesn't actually add any real depth to the gameplay.

It does actually. But then again this have to be marketed to a new generation of gamers, where they have to press as many buttons as possible in a battle or they'll get distracted by a shiny object somewhere.

Wow it looks like they actually made a game this time around. The first one was so lame probably the worst FF ever

It sold far too many to be "the worst FF ever", and I say this because Americans and Europeans had 3 months to avoid buying the game as you guys had information and spoilers and videos and walkthroughs of it to make a purchase decision and it still sold very well in the west.

QTEs?

@Neptune: Did some research about Hamauzu being the composer; sadly, I couldn't find much save this tweet by someone random:

...and I'm not really sure if I trust it. However, the track on the official site does retain his ambient and piano melodies, not to mention the orchestrated "battle" tunes which, after Blinded by Light, Fighting Fate and Nascent Requiem, I've come to expect from him. Certainly, the beginning part of the track on the official site reminds me of "The Thirteenth Day", just made much better.

Otherwise, even if it's not Masashi Hamauzu, I still anticipate whoever managed to create the track on the site. And I am looking forward to the game, actually. \o/

EDIT: Also, for those who want to listen to the track on the site without the URL hogging up your tab space or so...

Extracted out and uploaded for your enjoyment. Not sure if I'll get banned for this or reported but...oh well. For the sake of good music, I'll do it.

Apologies for anybody in countries which cannot access mediafire.

Nice, thanks man. Well if anyone can read Japanese it might say on the information page. Nice work though. Was there only 1 track on the website? It sounded like 3 different tracks to me, but maybe it was just loading different parts of the same one.

He says this but i bet he's the same person who loved QTE's in KH.!

At least those were in the middle of the "battle"
Also, contextual actions =! QTE

it looks like FFXIII's are going trigger a "scene" for a LB or Summon and then you perform the QTE.
