Nobuo Uematsu new interview

[Vesper]

I am actually not a fan of a good portion of the music tracks in this game, would love to see them add in some tracks from other FF's. Especially the intro to FF6, my fav game in the series.

Wish granted

Well that depends on what you like, to me its sound awful. This sound 10000 times better http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poyWs95UYCI

It depends on whether you're trying to convey childish machismo while you splatter hordes of aliens or the complex range of emotions needed to form the atmosphere of a RPG. In the latter case, you'd be hard pressed to find a better tune than FF6's opening. Of course, the music you propose could be used for things like battle scenes, but it would never set an atmosphere for any kind of typical RPG progression scene.

I think Sega did pretty good with the soundtrack to Resonance Of Fate, awesome game too, though a fair bit of it was also orchestrated. There was a fair bit of guitar in it though.

But yeah, usually:

Electric Guitar = Action games/scenes
Orchestra = Plot sequences/RPG's

You couldn't picture Tifa running around inside Cloud's memory, watching scenes of the past unfold to a tune from Disturbed or Nine Inch Nails could you?

[Rhomagus]

I would like it if Kumi Tanioka provided some tracks.

"Flowers on the Battlefield" was the most beautiful piece from XI by far, including the Sanctuary of Xi'tah, in my opinion. The Star Onions version is just amazing.

She also did the soundtrack for the Crystal Chronicles which was done primarily with actual natural instruments. Really helped pull me into the game more than Uematsu's synth pop. I always wait for them to do an orchestrated version of Uematsu's work, then I'll put that version into the game over the original version.

Not sure what kind of interview questioned you want from Nobuo about XIV, at a concert of his music and other FF music. He's not developing the game, he did his part and did the best job out of everyone working XIV.

But they did say something about XIV when we were there.

Watch the first 30 seconds of this, when he said "they'll get the platform fixed one of these days" you hear laughs in this video, but sitting in the back you should of heard the laughs turn to oooooos, especially with the Square Enix guys right in front of us.
