wowowowow at that FFXIII snub.
It might actually be my pick here. I feel like it's a pretty tough call between FFXIII-2, FFXIII, and FFX. Type-0 and VIII deserve mention too. As for the daily challenge. Yeah, idk what to make of that category. My first thought was something like how Silver Will is basically embedded in like a dozen different songs across FC and SC and so it'd be picking your favorite not-the-original-Silver-Will song but I'm just downright trash at picking up on those things. If I go with your favorite song interpretation... I still don't know! Final Fantasy XIII-2 - Caius's Theme is always a safe one for me to fall back on... but I might have used it for boss theme? I should have at least. Zero (Type-0 Ending; Used for Ending day) is another good one. Then you've got ones like Premonition (FFVIII), The Price of Freedom (Crisis Core), and Someday the Dream Will End that I always come back to and listen to at any given time. idk let's go left field and have me join the FFXIV crew with a song from it that was in the last VGMC that I've listened to a lot over the past 8-9 months because of that. FFXIV: Shadowbringers - Who Brings Shadow. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? ... Copied to Clipboard!

wowowowow at that FFXIII snub. It's probably a top 5 OST for the series for me, too! I was just going by what are generally considered the best ones. I wasn't sure whether to include it or XII. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

13's definitely more well-regarded than 12! Haven't seen many 12 OST fans. Otherwise I'd say you got the top 10 most liked down pat.
6-9 are all among my favorite soundtracks ever. 9 probably the best overall? You're Not Alone! also my favorite FF (and video game) song overall, so that can be my pick for the daily song, if that's what it means. --- All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Leonhart4 02/09/21 11:33:46 PM #9: |
Yeah, probably should've gone with XIII instead now that I've had time to think about it.
You're Not Alone is definitely in contention for best FF song for me, too. It'll probably pop up on one of these other days at some point. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Day 16: Best Piano Arrangement
Final Fantasy VIII - Find Your Way https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRHqbIinuD0 Don't know if it's the best, but it's always the one my mind goes to first. I just think it's really good and impressively done. Now if we're talking about an in-game song where the piano is the primary instrument, I'd probably give the nod to Via Purifico from Final Fantasy X. Love that song. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

I don't think YNA is that simple though! It changes things up a decent amount and is short enough that it doesn't get old, plus it switches between a large number of different instruments. There are plenty of simpler beloved FF songs!

One more reason having a selectable love interest instead of a story-mandated one was a bad idea! Bioware didn't do it particularly well with Mass Effect either, but at least they didn't totally crap the bed on it like Falcom.

LeonhartFour 02/10/21 10:58:04 PM #29: |
Yeah, that's what I meant. I think they carry over from 2 to 3 fairly well for the most part. Stuff from 1 doesn't carry over to 2 very well because, well, your only three romantic options from 1 are barely in 2 (although they try to make up for it with Liara in the Shadow Broker DLC).

Mac Arrowny 02/10/21 11:02:50 PM #30: |
I thought it was funny that you could cheat on Liara in ME2 then get together with her anyway in Shadow Broker. Way to let us have our cake and eat it too, Bioware!

Some of my favorite Shadow Broker lines are Liara's digs at you and your partner if you cheat on her.

Day 17: Best Remastered Track
Final Fantasy VII Remake - Flowers Blooming in the Church https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhb2ePyiIB4 This is a strange category because only a handful of games qualify for it. Anyway, with all due respect to the Airbuster boss theme remaster of Still More Fighting (which is awesome), Remake took a so-so song from the original game and made it beautiful here. It's a total upgrade of the original in every way. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Well, I've made it to the third (and presumably last) phase of the final boss of Origami King. It's been pretty easy so far, but it's got a good atmosphere. Unfortunately, I have to leave before I can finish the game, so hopefully nothing causes it to shut down before I get back!
