It's not in a game, but I think 'Black Mages' version of this song is one if the best ones: th-cam.com/video/lRhPgzHb_KA/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=FuegoRedXIII
i know some people would disagree but what i loved most about the snes version is the strong bass, thats a bit missing here but the violin ABSOLUTELY makes up for it, i love it, still the only acceptable non og version of my most favorite boss fight music for over 20 years!
The Pixel Remaster FF6 is truely epic, the soundtrack especially as it's all been upgraded so it sounds aweesome yet retains the essence of the original reditions.
Tbh, the whole game is like that. I mean, sure it introduced Limit Breaks, the option to switch party members and to toggle between active party members with full ATB bars, those things are important extra little additions, but I never understood why it's considered this legendary masterpiece. Anyone else feel this way? It was just a rehash of FFII after all.
@@raptorlewis273To me it was the setting and the characters. Previous FF games are very medieval and European inspired. VI was the first to break from that mold with having more steampunk setting and tracks that are more modern at least compared to it's predecessors which are also mostly European inspired. It has deeper characters with personal struggles. I-V is where the foundation were built, VI is the game that tried to combine each of those good ideas into 1 game. VI in a way, is the platform that made PS1 era so successful since most of what made VII-IX so successful were based on VI.
Most snes and nes boss themes are short, it's more about how sick the overall melody was and how catchy it was. you could sorta hear how awesome it would be if it was done well.
@@raptorlewis273 This game's story is better than the previous ones to me, but I don't think of VI as a masterpiece in the same regards as other people. That doesn't mean it isn't, just that it isn't for me.
Me too! When I first heard this theme, I was temporarily tricked into thinking I was playing a Falcom game and it felt like coming back home after a year of being away. Only to realize that it wasn't Falcom and it was Square, but I still felt the hype.
Oh yeah... THIS finally captures what the music FELT like back in the 90's in those battles in this story. I'm so happy~ Real OGs went for the Ether reward by the way. :V
Now that I tried this one, I'm very surprised by the quality of this remaster soundtrack, I usually like far better the originals(unless its Nes era, but even then...)! It motivated me to give a chance to the pixel remasters.
Well no that's actually something that only started when the series adopted the Active time battle system since enemies could now enter in and out of phases and you choose not to attack immediately unlike the first 3 games.
What's with the hate for the pixel remasters?! I love the snes version of ff6, but the pixel remaster of it blew my mind. Absolute masterpiece, and the soundtrack is incredible
This soundtrack was the reason why i played this game. i played ff7,8,9,10 and 12 before..but never 1-6. thanks to pixel remaster i changed my mind and love ff6. so damn good soundtracks in there and kefka is a great villain.
Not a bad remake, but I'll stick to the original, this has nothing to do with rose tinted glasses or anything, I just prefer the sound of the SNES version, also the fanfare in this version is just horrid! It's too upbeat, yes you won, but its not party time yet...geez
Kids These Days don't know what it was like to be playing this super moody intro in 1994 and suddenly it's boss time and your face just melts because of the music.
I think everyone can appreciate it. I remember i never played an rpg before and my friend had this game and told me to just listen to the overworld theme. I was astounded and bought it as soon as i could. Finished the whole game after that.
Great music, I'm blown away by this rock update! The battle decisions in the video were driving me nuts though, to be honest. One could easily Healed then > More Commands > Defend when no more healing is necessary when its in its shell.
Glad I still have my SNES and the FF3 cartridge because this looks and sounds worse. Sprites are pastel, text is squished together, adding guitars into old music... 🤮
While I tend to prefer the og themes at first with the pixel remastered games (they tend to favor brass in alot of themes), started to love the remixes. The electric guitar bits get my blood pumping 🙌🏽
I definitely prefer the original aside from the violin bit in the middle, it might just be bias since I heard the original first but I feel although this is objectively higher quality with the better instruments I don’t think it benefits much, the mix is less balanced and parts of it are drowned out, it feels way too busy in places, and the guitar is way too over the top and doesn’t fit in, the drums are alright though. I think I prefer the original’s epic action packed sound, even if it’s hard to tell what the instruments are.
@@tttitor7710 When the violin kicked in, I pretty much screamed. Didn't think it could get better but it did, hahaha. Violin is my favorite instrument. 🎻
Agreed, I love violins but they are a slower instrument that should not have been part of this fast piece. It slows the whole track down. The original is still better ; I've never heard any re orchestration of this track better than the original anyways, and I listened to tons of them.
Biggs: "Hold it!"
Terra: "So there I was... holding it."
Biggs vibing
This had NO right to make me bust out laughing
FF6's boss theme is honestly one of the best battle themes in the whole series, and this arrangement is honestly pretty damn amazing!
It's not in a game, but I think 'Black Mages' version of this song is one if the best ones:
th-cam.com/video/lRhPgzHb_KA/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=FuegoRedXIII
Of any series.
agreed
Good remake of SNES ff3
This, ff4 boss theme and battle at the big bridge were done masterfully
i know some people would disagree but what i loved most about the snes version is the strong bass, thats a bit missing here but the violin ABSOLUTELY makes up for it, i love it, still the only acceptable non og version of my most favorite boss fight music for over 20 years!
100% agreed, the violin is great, even though I miss the bass
NEEDS MORE BASS I AGREE. O-O would be nice if someone made one that mixed both styles
If you listen to this soundtrack totally unshackled on the SNES, Uematsu’s bass isn’t an afterthought, it’s totally essential.
I love this. The way the violin and guitar mix reminds me a lot of Castlevania and Bloodstained's soundtracks.
And YS !!!
the violins especially remind me of a lot of Sonic soundtracks too lol
@@XyNoST Yeah, it's very Falcom.
Violin killed it. Holy shit.
I know some people have felt some songs are hit or miss, this one is not a hit.
It's a direct hit. Brilliant
as me, a FF14 player say, DIRECT CRITICAL HIT!!
best bgm remaster so far, I took so many AFK in boss battles
Because while modern, it still keeps what makes the original good.
You want divisive, the Secret of Mana Remaster OST. This is dang solid.
The Pixel Remaster FF6 is truely epic, the soundtrack especially as it's all been upgraded so it sounds aweesome yet retains the essence of the original reditions.
I've always felt this theme was overhyped because of how short it really is, but THIS version kinda nails it!

@@raptorlewis273 it's the characters for me, their back stories, and the darker tone that their personalities that make it feel a bit brighter.

Why, WHY does this go so hard 😫
Violins and guitar together always trigger my Ys and Trails in the Sky memories
Me too! When I first heard this theme, I was temporarily tricked into thinking I was playing a Falcom game and it felt like coming back home after a year of being away. Only to realize that it wasn't Falcom and it was Square, but I still felt the hype.
I always call that combo the 'falcom violin' lmao
Both rllly good rpgs! Nice mentions!
0:32 they really nailed it on this part, and this is my favorite part in both the original and the remaster xd
That baseline is just banging.
Oh yeah... THIS finally captures what the music FELT like back in the 90's in those battles in this story. I'm so happy~
Real OGs went for the Ether reward by the way. :V
I forgot about the Pixel Remasters but I will say they definitely cooked on this remix. A certified banger just like the original theme
The violin is just what this song needed to be perfect
Wow thats godlike, I love this theme
This is very close to Uematsu's composing style from Lost Odyssey.
Violins and metal together, hell yeah
Biggs: Hold it! This tune is REALLY good!
Now that I tried this one, I'm very surprised by the quality of this remaster soundtrack, I usually like far better the originals(unless its Nes era, but even then...)! It motivated me to give a chance to the pixel remasters.
The original SP700 sequence on the SNES is more high quality than you can imagine.
The more subdued style actually works in this one oddly enough. The added riffs are tasty too.
All FF games have their "atack when its tail is off" boss.
Well no that's actually something that only started when the series adopted the Active time battle system since enemies could now enter in and out of phases and you choose not to attack immediately unlike the first 3 games.
I wonder what boss in FF VII was like that.
@@sid98geek The Guard Scorpion. That's literally the boss OP was referencing with the "tail is up" line.
@@marche800 Oh wow. I am so slow. I totally forgot about that guy haha. Also, is your username a pun on "Narshe" by any chance?
@@sid98geek Nope pure coincidence.

Makes me thinks about Octopath Traveler for the violins part
Final fantasy 6 music if it was a Nihon Falcom game
This is absolutely fantastic.
It's good but I still prefer the original. It's just so hard to beat.
And then Biggs and Wedge get saved and sent to guardia.
Even tho the Pixel Remaster is a soul less cash grab some remixes are amazing
I love this and World of Final Fantasy version 🤩
ff8 and ff6 easily the best battle themes in the series
Getting Deltascape vibes here and that's a good thing!
Thanks for uploading.
No problem. I was excited for it too so I said...why not? Lol thanks for watching.
Sweet violin, gives Xenoblade vibes
Pretty good but it only makes me want an even more brutal rendition.
It's nice and all but somehow, for me at least, can't beat the original snes version
Huh. I was wondering why the remastered song was so fast. Turns out this opened at 2x speed for some reason.
nothing like the good old snes pixel remaster boss theme. So awesome!!
Damn what a soundtrack remaster, reason alone to pick this up!
Kids These Days don't know what it was like to be playing this super moody intro in 1994 and suddenly it's boss time and your face just melts because of the music.
Kids These Days are literally on the drums in this track.
I think everyone can appreciate it. I remember i never played an rpg before and my friend had this game and told me to just listen to the overworld theme. I was astounded and bought it as soon as i could. Finished the whole game after that.
That atrocious text font tho 🌝
😄😄😄😄 yeah I changed it when I saw that you could. Had to get this one out quick tho so I didn't change it when I first started.
I enjoy 4 boss theme a little more. This too metal for me 🤣

Song is nice, but IMO pixel remaster should also be as true as possible to the original songs. Thank god for my SNES.
decisive battle all time a peak ff boss theme
Great music, I'm blown away by this rock update!
The battle decisions in the video were driving me nuts though, to be honest. One could easily Healed then > More Commands > Defend when no more healing is necessary when its in its shell.
Ahhh I love the little variation they put with the violin stabs at 1:18
Literally my favorite part lol
Holy shit that sounds fantastic
Why didn't you use the Tek Missiles?!
Would have killed it too fast. Wanted to hear the whole song.
Much prefer the original version. This one is appropriate for modern style of music nowadays but the original is a super masterpiece
I don't know man, the synth is still 100% that 80s progressive rock cheese that Uematsu loved.
nice
Glad I still have my SNES and the FF3 cartridge because this looks and sounds worse. Sprites are pastel, text is squished together, adding guitars into old music... 🤮
I wish 3D Culex had this theme, given how much more challenging he is compared to his 2D form...
sounds better played at 1.25 times speed.
I agree
I love me some violin in my battle music
Amazing
As a purist, i was skeptical with pixel remaster... then i gave a try and now im in love!
THAT VIOLIN THO!
Battle Godness lasmie/chadarnook.
Lasmie: violín chadarnook: organ
Can you post more ost for this game please?
anything in particular you looking for?
The falcon theme (searching for friends) and gau’s theme
@@seanbroderick2224 I gotchu
@@Professor_Hurt Can you also post under martial law and the veldt theme? Thanks again!
@@Professor_Hurt Can you also post Under Martial Law and the Veldt theme? Thanks again!
OriginalSNES is better. The original is pure progressive. Not this mix.
I feel like I can suplex a train after hearing this. LFG
It's not as good as the SNES version.
This theme always plays in my head when I get stuck at the train station which is actually a common thing with the DB as german train company
While I tend to prefer the og themes at first with the pixel remastered games (they tend to favor brass in alot of themes), started to love the remixes. The electric guitar bits get my blood pumping 🙌🏽
bro the drummer was having the best day of his life recording this
This is my favorite song from Sonic and the Black Knight.
That 🎻
at first, it sounds like Jolyne cujoh theme
The music is so good it makes me want to hit the shell.
suena como canción de Naruto
Wow!
This is better than the original for me. The violin gives me XIII vibes
Feels like falcom game in some parts
reminds me of Ys soundtracks
Heavy xenoblade chronicles vibes
i prefer the SNES version without the guitar tbh, i love it in the airbuster dont i dont like it as much here, still one of the greatest
Sorry but nothing beats, the Original SNES Boss theme.
It's not nice to see a different version of it though.
The old version sounded exciting. But the new version is not like that. It's like watching a rock star concert.
violin.....OMG.....SUPERB!
Excellent thème de Boss.
Guitar and drums sound awesome, but the SNES melody just can't be beat
They butchered it IMO
Don't hit the shell!

im hearing a lot of the GBA version in this remix here and i LOVE IT
Прямо КиШ какой то )))))
Sooo good
Sweet
A theme with no bad remixs, but none that surpass the original!!
Pure facts
Lol look bad downgrade. Final fantasy 6 pc version better is HD
I'm sorry...not a fan of this remaster. Drums are good but the rest? Not so much...
Yeah the vilion is just not fiting at alll.
This version is trash! good job Square Enix.
...I hate this.
and the worst part is that I can't quite explain why. :(
They added something... and I don't like it. =/
Holy shit I sound like an old man! xD lmao
still good but the violin kills it for me
The violin is the best part

Thumbs down to about 90% of the soundtrack of the Pixel remaster version, they butchered it and not in a good way.
Hard disagree
You are entitled to your wrong opinion.
Pop off
Pls take off your nostalgia headgear man... It's debuff bad for you
@@barneys4236 Funny, I was just about to tell you the same thing.
This sounds like a cheap garage band mix by Apple. Nobuo did better with less.
Nobuo had a hand in the remaster OSTs.
?? uhh he did these renditions? dont see a issue with em its damn good
Nobuo supervised the bgm remix, he reviewed this, so he has a stamp of approval of this remix
I love this 😍
