The Golden Saucer, as much as I will loathe that name in this game, wouldn't be too absurd, since there's something similar in Ul'dah already, we just can't access it. As long as they manage to work it in like they did with jobs (barring BLM. Lol.) then I'm fine with it.

    Ripping songs directly from other games (In their original format) is not something that would be a good addition to this game. It cheapens this game, and the games that the song was originally from. If it's something like the Mog, Chocobo, Gilgamesh theme, that's fine. Those make sense. If they have a similar melody to the Crystal Tower theme, that'd be fine too. I just don't need to here THE EXTREME when I'm in a dungeon. If I want to listen to FF music while grinding, I'll just listen to it outside of the game.
    No one said they should be "ripping songs directly from other games". Remix the tracks to fit the game and it's good... exactly what they did with the Moogle theme and Chocobo theme already.

    Those are actually arranges. The OP was asking for direct rips of songs in this game.

    YoshiP pretty much said this will be a fanservice game -- whether you like or hate that fact it's happening.

    If the victory fanfare is fanservice, then so are moogles, behemoths, bahamut, chocobos, etc. It's tasteful fanservice, so far. Reoccurring themes isn't really fanservice. I guess Magitek and the Crystal Tower are, but again, those seem to be tastefully done from what we've seen.
