Final Fantasy Mystic Quest OST - Battle 2

[@lupina015]

One of the most badass boss themes ever made.

[@MechNINJ4]

you sir/ma'am are correct!

[@GuillaumeDrolet]

that is so true! it is really so amaaaazing! so good!

[@PinkMawile]

If only the rest of the game could be. This game had amazing battle music.

[@wozthescott2804]

Big facts

[@TazHall]

This simple little rpg game has such an epic soundtrack. No wonder I felt like I was on a big adventure.

[@kaltadesmon]

i love this game so much. it introduced me to rpg's..

[@wannabesteve777]

@@kaltadesmon it served its purpose then lol

[@XX2Media]

@@wannabesteve777 it certainly did for me; it was the first FF game I ever purchased. I still replay it occasionally

Be honest: who here rocks out to air guitar with this soundtrack? I still do, at 40 years old. Please tell me I'm not the only one!

[@reloadpsi]

It's very good.

[@mathiasthewise]

I mean, I'm listening to the full soundtrack today putting a bed together, but does mind guitar count?

[@melichardcurlq6535]

@@mathiasthewise Oh Hell yes it does.

[@metal_gear_rayquaza8914]

I’ll do you one better. I actually tried playing this on my keyboard

[@brenoribeiro4591]

I do air drum and air bass tho

[@shalter20]

Your life is separated into two halves: Before and after hearing this theme. HOLY HELL

[@alexcupo5346]

Shit just got real.

[@Bloodreign1]

The one major thing this game has that attracts people's attention, an amazing as hell soundtrack. While the game itself won't bowl you over, the soundtrack will flatten you like a steamroller.

[@IrisCorven]

If you played this as a child, or like me it was your first RPG, this shit set a near impossible standard for video game music until the PS1 era, and in some cases many RPG's haven't topped it.

[@civilwildman]

Was glad to at least see this and the main battle theme featured in Theaterythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call. :D

[@everettwatsonrazorearcwolf6553]

Whos the main char from Mystic Quest

[@civilwildman]

Razore' Arcwolf, he's supposed to be nameable by default. At least in the manual or a Nintendo Power article for the game I read, I thought his given name for such was Benjamin.

[@seanmyster6]

+civilwildman He's also named Benjamin in Theatrhythm, so they must've decided that that's his canon name.

[@heyguys2002]

Who else comes here to listen to this ONCE AGAIN?

[@Bacher108]

Who is the single soulless, lifeless, heathen demon devil person, to dislike such a masterpiece?

[@djdj696]

Do I hear some savage double bass drumming in this track?

[@paimond223]

Used very tastefully, too, I might add!

[@Dhalin]

This is probably one of the few games that have boss battle themes that actually make the bosses sound dangerous, and you know, if you get careless (and don't exploit the Life spell), bosses in this game can actually be dangerous if you're not taking them seriously. A little bad RNG, especially any boss that has nasty status effects (especially Confusion), and you're going to be staring at the Retry prompt. The game is oftentimes panned for being ridiculously easy, but yet the bosses are easily on par with other RPGs, and let's not say anything about the final boss if you don't use Life as a heal and you don't cast Cure on him.

[@JackiW]

Woah! I was listening to some Final Fantasy battle theme playlist and this popped up second as randomised. Definitely goes in to my favorites->

[@raphaelsiegrist5566]

This sounds like a megaman boss theme

[@jakighcolburnchannel3584]

It sounds more Mega Man X than Classic Mega Man

[@eternalblue8676]

funny you say that since this was used as the boss theme in rockman 2 claw.

[@mastervaderclassic6670]

Megaman >:3

[@DigitalXrisXros]

this song comes on, you know sh*t bout to go down ⚔️💣🪓🔥🌪️✨

[@orestrong1706]

Most epic boss theme ever!

[@Eight-Bytes]

Flamerus Rex scared the shit out of me as a kid. I legit could not get past him.

[@j.h-j5j]

I don't know about you, but this track makes my blood pump.

[@stevenseufert2520]

That's your heart's job. =P

[@monsterofgod3315]

0:18 the moment when one of your party members dies.

[@zidanetribalx6131]

Wow this soundtrack is too amazing and fuk this bone dungeon boss!! I remember I died so many times from him.

[@vashe9]

Just cast life with your partner xD I was blocked YEARS in cascadia myself (not boss, the actual puzzle lol)

[@YosherYoshi]

Man, despite its reputation, I still love this game and its OST. It was my first RPG and back then I even had trouble with it, unable to find my way around the Lava Dome for a while and even being unable to beat its boss. Nowadays of course it's real easy for me, but it was a fantastic introduction to the genre for me. The soundtrack will always give me goosebumps for how good it is! Not gonna lie, I would love for this game to get a full blown remake someday, where it becomes a harder, more fleshed out experience. Doubt that's ever going to happen, but man would I love that, and hearing new official renditions of these songs to boot.

[@Fungorrr]

So many people will think they know good gaming music without playing FFMQ.

[@wompwomp9946]

Daniel Tidwell's version of this is awesome, too! :D

[@patricklm82]

Yasuhiro Kawakami is a genius

[@scottythegreat1]

I believe this is a Ryuji Sasai track.

[@XX2Media]

@@scottythegreat1 yes, this track was, indeed, Ryuji Sasai. You can tell by his use of guitar and horns simultaneously.

[@Mr.Smiley_J]

This song used to scare me as a kid. Especially facing that big red skeleton dragon with this energetic, pulse-pounding track making everything seem so dire, every move i make bringing me closer to death. So awesome!

[@High_Priest_Jonko]

Epic optimistic triumphant-sounding music with specks of "oh shit, my enemy isn't a push-over" vibes. Still, you remain confident that you'll win.

[@JoeBiren-jp9xw]

More panic inducing than a Malboro.

[@joshdillon9637]

Still epic today!

[@ramgladore]

The game may have been easy but the music was always slappin.

[@WocklessGamingforAnimeMoms]

Chiptunes are such a fucking artform. People are afraid to admit it because of how doeky it makes you sound but stuff like this IS on par with Jazz or Classical Music. So is Progressive Rock.

[@robertlupa8273]

Rockman Claw 2! The only reason why I know about this awesome song.

Someone with an ear for good music, and able to make great music themselves is why this game has excellent music.

Actually it takes 3, maybe 4 uses. And it only works if it is the Hero's Cure spell. Not potions or Phoebe's Cure spell.

gives a bit of Motoi Sakuraba influence.

[@scottythegreat1]

There is a lot of Progressive rock influences in RPGs, especially from Squaresoft. Nobuo Uematsu was in charge of hiring and firing music composers, and he hired people with similar musical influences.
