FFXIV OST The Copied Factory Final Boss Theme ( Weight of the World - Prelude Version )
SPOILIES IN THE VIDEOWowweee; a creamy blend of 2 of my favourite games of all time. What more could you want? Also if you are led to believe that I died at ...

I have a question. Are there any other series/franchises whose music is simply god tier from title to title in the franchise? I can't think of any comparable series/franchises whose music is just so consistently good from every single title in the franchise.
It's too hard to name just one song in the entirety of the Final Fantasy franchise, but Aerith's theme will always have a special place in my heart, one that hits me emotionally like no other track out there. I know it's the not the most original pick or one of the lesser known tracks from the franchise, but in terms of its place in video game music history, it's way up there. I particularly like the rendition of Aerith's theme during the ending credits of FF7 Remake. I think it's fitting that's the first track that plays when they start showing all the snippets of the game once you're at the end.

Ya, I feel very much the same. Even if Oblivion isn't my favorite track in XIV, it's one of the most memorable just because it was unlike anything before it and I wasn't prepared for the rest of the game's music being, well... as diverse and unique as it is. It's a huge turning point.

The crown goes to FF9 - surely - for the best variety of battle themes.
We've got:
- the standard battle theme which is a banger in itself - that's without mentioning the Dissidia remix which is just as good!
- Feel My Blade
- Hunter's Chance
- You're Not Alone
- Dark Messenger
I rest my case.
Edit: can't remember if the Silver Dragons theme was used for a battle - but let's throw it in anyway

Wow, the GBA version of this is awful...
Mt. Koltz - Final Fantasy VI Advance HQ OST
These are remastered tracks, taken from the Gameboy Advance port of Final Fantasy VI/III originally in the US. Since no one up to date has uploaded a truly h...

It's Auron's theme
There is also Silent Hill, Metal Gear Solid, Uncharted or Grand Theft Auto.
For the people who said, Terra's theme, good choice! That's one of my absolute favorites. Did you guys know there is a version of it with lyrics?
Kind of crazy how all these years later nothing has topped the original Shinra Company theme for me.

God-Soken blessed us with this version for Omega 12 Savage fight.
I have this song playing on the Orchestrion in my house all the time. Not many dungeon themes make good housing music, but I love this one.
Quite an admirable choice, however, I would contend that most videogame tunes composed in Dorian are just as rousing as this classic.
FF14 OST is amazing. Just that Shadowbringer main menu theme is amazing
Its this. Nothing fits quite as well as this music does. From the cutscene of Landing on Dollet transitioning into gameplay. The track is so good they abandon the battle theme and just continue playing this during battles. The sense of urgency coz your on a timer on Dollet everything fits perfectly.
Music preference is a hell of a thing. These both sound terrible to me. :(
100% correct.
Hard to think of a many better character themes in, well, any game.
This is a vastly broad spread for specific 'best' Final Fantasy tune, but if we're talking about 'mountain' type tracks specifically, I see your Mt. Koltz and raise you a Walking the Snowy Mountains:
The arranged version featured in the doujin album Preludio is incredible; wish I could find it to share, but alas.
One thing you can say about Square is they have had consistently great music.
Just recently discovered this song through playing the game and it's so damn good. Been listening to it on a loop.

Got to this fight and wow! Don't watch if you plan on playing - just open on another tab.
The second phase doesn't really do it for me but it is iconic. The first phase has some nice covers on YT. Is there any place to go where we can get some commentary from the composers? There are a lot of interesting choices in this game.

Ok, after listening and re-listening to different versions of Terra's theme, I now wanna see Square do a remake of FF6 after they finish off FF7 Remake. LOL. This showed up in my recommended list - Terra's theme with English vocals.
Forgot about this. This version is so so good, indeed.
Imma add this here:

Hahaha, I'm not sure what's this thread is about right now, but I'll drop this:
Since VII-R already delivered J-E-N-O-V-A (and it's awesome), this is the next song I'm looking forward from VII-R.
Unfortunately, OWA overshadowed it, but for me it's one of the coolest Boss Theme from FF.

As far as XIV was concerned, you beat me. This song still hasn't been topped for me.
My choice though:
See...you would think that this is an awesome theme for an ultimate raid. It's very energetic, and the individual themes from first tier to second tier, to third tier of Alexander, make a very natural progression all on their own...but progressing through this fight with this music is almost torturous. I already heard the first tier music enough during Living Liquid prog in HW, and it takes a looooong time for the average group to get comfortable enough with LL and BJ/CC phases to get through them consistently.
Still love the Brute Justice Mode theme, but boy is it testing my love for it right now. Glad to finally be stuck deeper into the fight.
Edit: Shiva's theme is still iconic in the community though. I don't wanna say they beat it out with the new savage raid tier, but the new theme there is fantastic as well.
I've only been playing XIV for a couple of days, but I'd say the music was an instant standout.
