    Top 5 final fantasy soundtracks

    I’ve only heard a small handful of songs from XIII and XII. The only ones that come to mind are the battle/ boss theme and opening piano bit from XIII and the boss theme from XII. Are there any other notable songs from these that you’d recommend? Would like to check these out sometime.

    Top 5 final fantasy soundtracks

    It’s funny you mention that...before Remake came out, me and a childhood friend that I played FF7 with in 1997 were talking our favorite FF music, and I ended up making a list of my top 20 favorite FF songs. I admittedly spent waaay too much time and thought into this list, but I can’t help...

    Top 5 final fantasy soundtracks

    Who doesn’t love a good top 5? Here are mine (disclosure - I’ve only played FF 1-10, except 3): 5) IV 4) VII Remake 3) VIII 2) VI 1) VII I almost put 8 as #2. For all the flack it gets, it had a phenomenal soundtrack. Fishermans horizon is one of my favorite songs period. All in all...

    Final Fantasy VIII General Discussion

    I just began playing this game again last week for the first time in probably 15+ years. I find that it’s resonating with me more this time around, now that I understand the junction system. Also the 3x speed option on remaster really helps make the grind with draws more bearable. I like...

    Hopes for Remake & Rebirth (story/content)

    After seeing John Eric Bentley’s heartbreakingly authentic performance of Barrets reaction to the plate fall, I’m really anticipating the dynes death scene. I’m confident he’s going to nail it, and it will be another highlight of FF7R.

    Final Fantasy IX

    Well, I made it to disk 2, only to have the game completely freeze on me when I enter Treno. Tried to clean the disk, but nothing has worked. I thought "well, I'll play FF8 - i haven't played it in over 15 years too, so it'll be fun to revisit this as an adult with a new perspective."...

    Hi Everyone

    I have much to learn from you seasoned veterans fluent in Cookie Monster.

    The Official "How many parts?" Thread

    The number of parts will depend largely on their release strategy. Nomura mentioned being a fan of releasing smaller games to get content out faster. I personally would prefer the larger releases so I could get lost in the world of FF7 for a longer duration. If they go the longer route, my...

    Final Fantasy IX

    I just booted up my old PS1 yesterday and put FF9 in. I probably haven’t played this game in at least 15 years, maybe 18. I never beat it the first time around either. I remember I got a little girl (eiko...I think?) and I stopped playing shortly after that. I’m excited to see what I think of it...

    Hi Everyone

    Hey all. This intro is a bit overdue, as I joined a couple months ago and have made a handful of posts. I live in Central US and played OG FF7 in 1997 when I was 7 years old. I didn’t understand rpgs at the time, and died I think 20+ times to guard scorpion because of the “attack while its...

    FFVIIR Original Soundtrack

    Anyone else really like Scarlett’s theme and how it’s used in-game? The jazzy arrangement is classy, elegant, and beautiful, reflecting the splendor of Shinra HQ. Had I listened to the track without playing the game, I would’ve simply concluded it to be a beautiful sounding song albeit with...

    SPOILERS Tifa a bit selfish in remake?

    Some fans do, I believe, exalt her and other FF characters to some perfect, do-no-wrong, level, which is silly and unrealistic. I want to hammer the point home and reiterate that by me pointing this out, I am not trying to trash her character. She's one of my favorite characters in all of...

    SPOILERS Tifa a bit selfish in remake?

    Yeah, we have a difference of opinion after the plate crash. I think that was an awful time for a “reality check”. Give the man a break and allow him to grieve over his loved ones without twisting the knife and throwing salt in the wound. Comes off very selfish, cold-hearted, and harsh to me...

    SPOILERS Tifa a bit selfish in remake?

    I think you're trying to reframe what happened in a way to make it sound more palatable. She was going beyond thinking. She made, imo, a harsh statement to Barret in a moment when he was weeping and crushed about losing his friends and thought he lost his little girl. Just a bad time to twist...

    SPOILERS Tifa a bit selfish in remake?

    I wasn't saying Tifa as a person is cold as ice; I love her character, flaws and all. I was saying her comment to Barret in that moment was cold as ice. I get what you're saying on Elmyra and respecting her wishes. And i revisited the script. Tifa doesn't say "we shouldn't rescue her." she...

    SPOILERS Tifa a bit selfish in remake?

    As much as I love Tifa, in the remake she comes off to me as selfish, at times. After the plate crash when Barret is having an emotional meltdown over losing Biggs, Wedge, and Jessie (and thinking Marlene has died). What is Tifas response? “It was us. We did this.” How harsh and...

    (*Open Spoilers*) Hidden nods/winks to the Original Game

    While playing today, watching cloud catch aerith during the rooftops scene reminds me of when he holds her in OG FF7 during the forgotten capital before lowering her into the water.

    Hopes for Remake & Rebirth (gameplay/combat)

    This has probably already been said, but I’m not reading 45 pages of posts. I’d love to see a dual/triple tech system ala Chrono Trigger implemented.
