    Here's the thing about Uematsu's music.

    Uematsu writes his songs as companions to the scenarios they appear in. Without scenes and worlds that draw out emotions from the players, the songs are just simple songs.

    So the problem here isn't with Uematsu's music, so much as it is the drab world it accompanies.

    I mean, I can't help but feel a little silly listening to the battle music in this game while I'm fighting a dodo. Especially if it's during a levequest and the one I'm fighting runs away.

    Ul'Dah is not the main City because SE planned it, Its a result of the playerbase, To be honest I'm surprised Limsa didnt end up being the primary city.

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.

    Yep. U'ldah was more or less "chosen" as the main city by the players, due to it being centrally located.

    Yeah I dunno OP, I thought Vanilla FF11 and RotZ battle music absolutely blew. All the expansion battle music after that was phenomenal though.

    I really like the music in this game a lot except for Thanalan's regular battle music, and that's only because of the dumb first 3 seconds of it. They should trim it so it starts with the electric guitar part

    It's just my personal opinion, but I feel XI's battle themes sound like "proper" (for lack of a better word) music that should play during a battle sequence. While XIV's is still nice, it just doesn't compare. Of course, it might just be nostalgia talking.

    I like Ul'dah music. ^^ the only music in-game I can't stand is the market wards(I swear if I'm even in there for 2 mins I wanna punch something XD), crafting, and Firefall music(thank goodness it's gone!) lol
    For everything else I keep the game music on.

    I actually agree with the OP, as selbina was probably my favorite track from any final fantasy(for whatever reason.) The kingdom of san d'oria. also felt like a big caslte, with a city around it. I think it was the wind pipe in most the songs [=

    Need some heart thumping music. Something that can hype you up, and give you the balls to take on Mike Tyson one on one.

    My fav type of music is battle themes, so yeah you understand.

    I know that this is a matter of taste.

    IMO the music in this game is VERY boring. FFXI is way better.
