Day 4: Best Airship Theme
Final Fantasy VIII - Ride On https://youtu.be/WS1EJiUM91s Finally a day with some real competition! This was a tight race between VII, VIII, and IX here. You could persuade me of any of them on a given day. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Best airship theme huh. Thats tough. FF5s is actually the first one that popped into my head, but I actually like FF9s a lot too.

Day 5: Best Character Theme
Final Fantasy VI - Celes's Theme https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PK8ZIWDLxgY Specifically the orchestral version. I've always been charmed by the haunting beauty of this one, for whatever the reason. This is a loaded category. Honorable mentions to X-Death, Cyan, Locke, Kefka, Aerith, Cid, Ovelia, Yuna, Lightning, Snow, and maybe some others I forgot! --- ... Copied to Clipboard!
|
pyresword 01/30/21 5:45:29 PM #266: |
There's a lot of good choices for character theme, but I feel like I've got to go with Yuna's Theme.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNLcIYq_kQ4 Such a nostalgic song. Long list of honorable mentions is something Rydia, Terra, Celes, Aerith, Freya, Steiner (ok this one's a guilty pleasure), and Vivi. Also Beatrix if you count Rose of May as her theme song, even if it isn't actually named that. I remember liking some of the FFXIII ones also but I can't actually recall what they sound like right now. --- I didn't do guru this year but azuarc can be in my sig anyways. ... Copied to Clipboard!
|
LeonhartFour 01/30/21 5:49:22 PM #267: |
Oh yeah, Terra's another good one. I was only really counting "named" character themes, so I didn't include Beatrix there. Otherwise, I would've also included "My Mind" from FFVIII, which effectively functions as Rinoa's theme.

I couldn't find the specific arrangement of her theme I like best, unfortunately. I guess it got taken down at some point. I'm trying to go a little out of the box for some of these.

FFVI is the best game in the series for character themes. Terra's Theme, Celes's Theme, Kefka's Theme, Rachel's Theme, all great stuff.
Aeris and Rikku are the main ones I like outside FFVI. More Aeris than Rikku. --- All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. ... Copied to Clipboard!

xp1337 01/30/21 11:17:35 PM #273: |
Think I would go with Final Fantasy XIII - Snow's Theme for character theme under the same rules as Leon (named character theme) with the caveat that I'm arbitrarily excluding Caius's Theme because I've always thought of that more as a boss theme even though there's no particular reason it can't be both. Otherwise I think it'd take this for me. Shoutout to Arecia's Theme from Type-0 for being another one I really like that probably gets almost no mention from anyone else.

I mean, if you're including battle music, that adds a whole bunch of other songs, from One Winged Angel to J-E-N-O-V-A to The Man with the Machine Gun to Seymour Battle!

alright I somehow just slept all day after that but hadn't been sleeping well for a while so I'll take it
anyway some P5R new content thoughts (this feels like it'll be a large black wall so sorry in advance) Overall I think I liked the added content more than Golden's, though it's sort of hard to compare since a lot of that was just more fun events with the Investigation Team (which in fairness fit P4 very well). Definitely feel a lot better about P5 - probably doesn't top P4G for me (that's still my favorite game of all time), but this did a good job of closing the gap, at least. --- As a guru, only azuarc could ever find forever. ...

Skip features are the worst because of how you can accidentally trigger them, so then I have to rewind and hope I don't accidentally trigger it again.

Besaid Island reigns eternal
Not sure what I'd have after that. Cosmo Canyon? Oh right, the Ishgard music from FFXIV's also really damn good. One of the coolest parts is that it has four variations for whether you're in the wealthy or poor district and whether it's day or night. Gives some variety to a place you'll be spending a lot of time, but they still feel like the same theme. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kcw8xNxkZtM --- All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. ...
