Terrible Music

In my opinion the biggest let down in DoC: FFVII was by far the music, in a game where the action is fast paced and intense you need music of the same type, I personnaly would have used some Heavy Metal type music to help get you pumped for battle...what type of music would you have used?

That would of been alright... like, say, FFX's Otherworld for example... something similar to that on boss fights would of been great. ;D

Tbh, I liked DoC's soundtrack... =]

Heavy Metal in FF? I really don't see how that would work... I felt it was out of place at the beginning of FFX. I haven't played Derge. -shrugs- So what do I know?

I agree the soundtrack was terrible. The WRO headquarters music really bugged me.

I have no idea what you are going on about, OK, nothing inspiring but certainly nothing terrible!

Spoilt children!

xD I could say almost the same thing about people who complain about FFXII music!

I was expecting something more dramatic, a lot more hard hitting - I do like the opening music though, can't remember the name of it.

I understand where you're coming from when you say Heavy Metal music doesn't really have a place in FF games BUT DoC: FFVII isn't really a traditional FF game since it's the first shooter in the series (As far as I know) so it would have been nice to have a change from the norm plus you can't tell me that the Music in the FMV at the beggining of FFX (Where you see Tidus playing Blitzball) didn't work well.

Perhaps its just me but i really dont pay attention to BG music, unless its really annoying (in which case I play some CD's) or amazing (In which case I crank up the volume untill my neighbours hate me).

Bare in mind that most music is a solo artist with technical skills, Sephiroph's them involved a whole orchestra, quality costs.
