Final Fantasy VII Remake's Soundtrack Stretches Across 7 CDs

Yeah i'll be getting that

FF7 soundtrack that comes with 7 disc? I see what you did there SE 😂

I really hope they release this in a massive box set of vinyl. The one they’re releasing isn’t bad but I do like the full shebang instead of a selection of tracks. Honestly the soundtrack so far has been good for the battle themes but I think something’s a bit lost in the field tracks. There’s not the same booming nature that MIDIs have, which makes me worry for tracks like Anxiety and Aerith’s Theme, both of which rely on the use of volume to drive a stake through our hearts.

I only played the demo once but my wife and I both thought the after fight music was missing. That upbeat reward music that we heard in every game after. It's kinda like when Link opens a treasure chest and gets something good.

Anybody else notice it's absence?

@rjejr yes. Der dededede dedede 👍

@rjejr I suppose SE figured it doesn't fit when there's zero transition between field and battle, it was gone in 15 as well. Like with 15, I'm sure it'll still crop up somewhere. Probably after winning fights in the coliseum, or completing mini games.

@Orpheus79V That's what my wife and I decided but we still missed hearing it. Game means a lot to us. We started dating summer 97, moved in together that holiday, Christmas 98 she bought me PS and we got Parasite Eve, which we really liked, then a friend of mine bought me FF7 and we kinda bonded with her watching me play. Then we played FF8 twice and that is our game. But that FF7 celebration music is what we always think back to.

@Kidfunkadelic83 That's the one. 😁

Final Fantasy games are a mixed bag but the music is always fantastic.

@rjejr Barratt actually sings/shouts it after battle! Clearly not as good, but it's there in spirit.

@rjejr They haven't had it after every battle from FFXI onwards - though I admit, I can't remember XIII well. What they have done, though, is find some way to include it. So in XII it plays only after boss fights, in XIV it's the level up jingle, in XV Prompto will randomly start humming it after some battles. In Advent Children they even had it as a bad guy's ringtone that went off after Tifa fought them. I think they'll find some way to include it, just not after every battle like in FF to FFX.

Ah, and there we go. Thought they'd do something like that.

Can't seem to be able to pre-order with a UK delivery...

@Matroska "They haven't had it after every battle from FFXI onwards"

I get that, but this isn't FFXIR, FFXIIR, FFXIIR, FFXIVR or FFXVR, it's FF7R, and FF7 had the music.

Yeah, I know this is a week late, our house has no sense of time now.

@SnowTiesAreCool "Barratt actually sings/shouts it after battle!"

Thanks. I played it once, once was enough for me, and my 1 son played it once, so I need to have my other son play ti once so I can listen for it. The guy singing/humming chocobo music in FFXV was easily one of the best parts of FFXV.
