I'm also going to have to disagree with the OP. I think that overall the FF14 soundtrack is fantastic. There are a few tracks that I don't particularly care for, and a few that do seem a little out of place. But I really like most of the tracks, and some of them (like "Answers") are outstanding.

I enjoyed the FF11 soundtrack as well. To be honest, I own most of the CDs. But I don't think there were as many standout tracks. I suppose there were if you add in all of the FF11 expansions, but I think that FF14 has a higher ratio of quality tracks.

Overall, I think that Uematsu is one of the best in the business. I love his stuff, and I really hope that he remains the composer for future FF14 expansions.

Well said *^.^* (Answers is my fav track for 14 Hehe, 14 also has the best choco remix I've heard in a FF title before)

(yes yes, I love Susan's voice, it's so....strong..... I'm so-so for the remix of chocobo, but the orchestrated version is DEFINITELY awesome.)

One word to describe the majority FFXIV's soundtracks: bombastic. I quite like it....

...And whoever mentioned that the region of La Noscea has the best tracks overall, I agree wholeheartedly.On Windy Meadows (La Noscea's theme) just makes me....tingly over all, and I sometimes find myself singing and harmonising with it. It's one of the reasons why I got into the game after listening to it repeatedly on the FFXIV website. Navigator's Glory is my favourite out of all the city themes, it's just so...grand....and actually fits in with the feel of Limsa Lominsa. Nail of the Heavens just makes fighting anything epic, even jellyfish.

Coerthas just makes me tear up. So simple, yet so moving....and it's battle theme is awesome. And so is Mor Dhona's....while Coerthas' theme doesn't really fit it's expansive area, I'm sure there'll be some kind of lore explaining the theme....perhaps something sad happened to the landscape?

The only theme I don't really like is Emerald Labyrinth. It's too.....repetitive....and sharp. Otherwise, FFXIV is one of my favourite soundtrack collection.
