XIII did have a great soundtrack. The Final Fantasy community fiercely clings to Uematsu — and with good reason, don't get me wrong — at the expense of the other composers who have worked on the series. All things considered, Hamauzu (who did all of XIII, as well as a lot of great tracks from X) is a better composer than Uematsu: texturally, harmonically, and structurally, he's a lot more sophisticated than Uematsu. But Uematsu writes stronger and more accessible melodies, and melodies are easier to latch on to for most people.


Exactly. Don't get me wrong, Uematsu is amazing , but things do seem to get a bit more 'bland' and repetitive after a while. Hamauzu really does seem a lot more 'next gen' with his music and seems to offer more. Also, I love that the new soundtracks have a lot more vocals in them... they keep my attention more. Some new characters' theme songs are lyrical too, just offers a lot more depth in my opinion.XIII did have a great soundtrack.
