    Final Fantasy meets Mega Man X

      Say what you will about FFMQ otherwise (personally, I enjoyed it at the time and still do), the music is undeniably *fantastic.* I don't think there's a bad song on the soundtrack, but the battle themes are particularly good.

    Lol I feel so slow, but I only just now realizes that the box art has Marle using a fire spell rather than Ice. Wonder how this error slipped past the quality control people.

    • @ThirdPointInLine
      @ThirdPointInLine 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I think Akira Toriyama made the art earlier in development when Nadia was supposed to use fire and they just kept it because he's a legend and you don't wanna pay him again or something like that XD

      @@reallyannoyingguy6625 it isn't, actually. It's simply a stylistic choice to make her attire appropriate for the cold. Early screenshots still show Marle in her finished design. You'll notice Chrono and Frog also have altered outfits in the art.

    Of course you started with Mystic Quest :) It's literally the first battle theme that comes in my head when I think of RPG battle music. I wonder if, in trying to make the simple, bog standard RPG for western audiences, they unintentionally came up with the ultimate version of any RPG battle music.
