What's Final Fantasy?

[zaviermhigo]

Also watching this, it really makes people sound extra stupid when they say "because they call it a dungeon, it is like WoW" because these videos (outside of even the talking just the clips) show so many "FF" dungeons.

edit: even in 2d those dungeons have an element I would like in modern ones, and element of the unknown, not knowing where to go. Lets say darkened map at first or no map with unlocking at end. In FF single players (XIII dungeons were a lil streamlined for my taste), you looiked up a faq/walkthru or you explored. Plus dungeons shouldn't just be caves and what not, they should be actual castle dungeons, or deep dank caves. Idk i'd even like toad back, imagine us as toads crawling thru sewers like in FFIII or IV I can't remember sorry. :[

I love the OST for this game, but I don't like the music in game if that makes sense. The music is awesome but it doesn't fit in some places. Gridania's music is so sleepy too. Watching these games, FF has common musical themes, and I think next time Nobuo has to do a song for XIV it will fit more, he'll make sure, since he isn't too happy with how well the music fits either.

Thanalan's music and Coerthas' music are both some of the best I've heard :P

And I think this is one of the best boss/battle themes in any video game. But you never get to hear it all because it plays during EDIT: FACTION NM LEVES and you don't do those often enough.

Back on-topic: NOSTALGIA BOMB

I remember speaking about this on zam but: I really wish the guys at SE would watch that.

I hope something would convince them that the story just isn't isn't presented up to FF standards. It has always been an important part of FF titles but in XIV it's just slapped on like a series of cutscenes that have nothing to do with you grinding on leves most of the time in the game.

I like the part when the moogles looked like moogles and not like ugly rabbits.

Hironobu Sakaguchi is gone, so I'm afraid your stuck with the new and improved Final Fantasy.

tbh I never saw an difference between ff7 ff8 ff9 ffx ff12. girl meets boy, girl may/does need to sacrifice herself , boy saves girl/ ore another girl credits roll
and people die.

I liked it when aeris died, and the game messed up or something and the sword is going through her head.

Kodak Moment.

i was gonna say.... so far ive heard almost nothing but complaints and even a thread or two on here asking SE to redo the soundtrack using a different composer.
the only music i ever remotely liked (repetitive music will never exist in my world) was xenogears 2... or 3. the game sucked but the music was not bad.

The OST for this game is one of the best in the series, but what they have in the game is not a good representation. There are 72 tracks that are in the files (at least as far as I know) but the GOOD songs are quiet/blinking out as part of the event (Thanalan's theme), tied to specific, short content (Behest boss music is about 4 minutes long but a boss in a Behest lasts about 30 seconds including travel time), or is in a place that lacks content (Coerthas' theme). There is a lot they could do with the soundtrack if they shuffled it but like other aspects of the game it is badly implemented.
