I do want to say by the way that I'm not hating on the Opera scene out of a "I'm used to high-def audio and the SNES's soundchip is hilariously dated" perspective. Hell, most of the musical work I do lately is in Famitracker, so I know my dated music formats. I disliked the way it sounded back when the game was still relatively new (I first played it in '98, I think). Old video game soundtracks can be masterpieces when they play to their limitations, the opera scene tries to break through its limitations, which I find admirable but I think it just winds up kind of silly. I've sort of come away from hating it ever since actually hearing it done by a proper orchestra, but it's still musically probably my least favorite part of FF6 and it always has been. It sounded dated to me when it was practically brand new.
