FF creator + best FF composer > the shitty remains of a once-good company

ITT discuss Sakaguchi/Uematsu/Mistwalker

Well technically the FF creator made the movie which drove Square Soft into the ground. So they fired him and due to blowing so much money, had to merge with their rival company Enix. Bad blood with them.

As for Uematsu, he still gets brought on to do work with Final Fantasy, such as the MMO FF 14. Anyway, I'd like to play some games by them, but sadly they're for the Wii and I do not have such a device.

Edit: Actually, just The Last Story. Terra Battle is a mobile game which apparently sucks, but obviously if the soundtrack is composed by Uematsu, it's time to youtube some music.

The best FF composer is Masayoshi Soken, dude.

Well, to be fair, the movie itself wasn't really bad in quality, it just didn't sell. I can't really fault the creator for something when that kind of thing happens. And yeah, MW games are pretty limited in terms of consoles...their earlier games were for Xbox, but now it looks like they're just going into mobile games.

I haven't played Terra Battle yet, but yeah, I hear it isn't great.

For a second I read the title as "Moonwalker"

He's pretty great, but I don't think he takes it from the OG.

Uematsu is a literal god

and so is Shiro Sagisu

Soken is pretty great though. The original music for ARR is beautiful.

Spoiler

I thought it was a cool way to bring the series full-circle. But it's also an absolute mindfuck that makes MGS2's ending look relatively simple by comparison.
