I'm not talking about that, but the actual composition. It's not bad by any means, but could use a little more variety in its dynamics.

The player for IGN Japan is way better than the tester for the US site. They string combos together more frequently, actually use lock on, and use special attacks a lot whereas the latter's attacks are sloppier and not as purposeful. They still could've killed the S rank with limit break instead of dying though lmao.

an Experienced Gamer wiĺl have a fairly easy time the first time through with maybe a bump in the road here and there to let everyone have a smooth ride and enjoy the story, NG+ is then far more challenging and changes enemy groups, placement and AI, is what they've said. It also unlocks other additional challenges for the leaderboards, as well as new ways to upgrade your equipment.

Find the Flame is cool, it's just kind of chunky. Soken's music really shines when it's played in context, so hearing this very motif-heavy piece out of context when the game has yet to release doesn't quite do it justice. Half of what makes his soundtracks so great is like, hearing the Amaurot theme in Shadowbringers, then hearing it reach its apex in To the Edge, then hearing it brought into a new dimension with Fleeting Moment. He's just really great at introducing a distinct theme and iterating and genre-bending it in wonderful ways.

This is a good way of explaining it.

The way I'd describe Soken's music is that he excels at creating "accompanying tracks for stories." I'd probably say Uematsu is a bit more enjoyable for listening to tracks by themselves, but Soken makes tracks that greatly enrich the scenes/fights in which those tracks are used.

I think his music is probably like 80% of why people respond so well to FF14's story. By itself, the story/plot is good but not really exceptional. But the music/presentation can make all the difference.
