Look, Square Enix — you can keep your fancy graphics and high-octane magic swordfights or whatever else you’re shoving into the next Final Fantasy. You guys know that all it really takes to reel back your old fanbase is a few bars of Uematsu.
I mean, listen to this. LISTEN. This is the newly-released trailer for the upcoming demo of Final Fantasy XV, which will be released alongside Type-0 HD next month, and really, it could’ve just been 80 seconds of Noctis taking a dump, along as it had that soundtrack.
(The FFXV trailer starts at 2:39 — before that is spoilery Type-0 stuff, so be careful.)
Also there’s sneaking and crawling and fistbumps and a bigass behemoth monster and I genuinely can’t believe that, almost nine years after it was first announced, we’re finally going to get to play this game in just a month.w

Oh the feels… Its been a whole day since I’ve listened to my playlist with Uematsu on it. 😉
Seriously though, why won’t he come back to do another game. :'(
Have you heard FFXIV’s version of the Final Fantasy main theme (also composed by Nobuo Uematsu)? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OdlVLI1rQc
Also, no Nobuo Uematsu playlist can be complete without the Before Meteor soundtrack (he composed majority of the FFXIV1.0 soundtrack) 😛
Hang on, what? Last I heard, Yoko Shimomura was the FFXV composer, not Uematsu. Aside from them digging up the Final Fantasy Main Theme he composed back in the NES era, is he actually involved?
