Ever since 2016 when I first played FFTA2 so late because I could only emulate it, this song struck me differently both when at the start of the game, and when Frimelda comes back from being undead, it just hit different, like a fresh breath of air to liven up and make you sprint towards a new journey. Since that day, this has been my alarm tone, signifying that today is a new day and I should seize it with all of my heart, and it still has been for 6 years now.
Recently played this game on my Steam deck the other day and instantly I was reminiscing about the good ole days where I didn't have to worry about life and just having fun in my own little bubble. Strange how music can invoke memories that you've forgotten.
I started playing this again a week or so ago after having sold my DS copy well over a decade ago. Immediately this song starts playing during the name entry screen, and all the memories just come flooding back, and I have to hold onto my partner and just cry for a few minutes. It was a gross, messy wail. But it proved to me that, although I might have forgotten on a conscious level, this song-and the rest of the soundtrack-have stayed with me all these years, even (in my opinion as a composer) subconsciously shaping the development of my own musical style. What a trip.
This is possibly the most beautiful piano piece in all of Final Fantasy. I'm so glad Square's making an HD FFXII, and I hope it leads to the making/HD-ifying of other Ivalice games.
Because the tone is so completely different from the root game that inspired it. Nothing beats War of The Lions for me, but the Advance games were a stroke of real magick that are precious in their own unique, beautiful way
@@Sir_Bucket I agree, for what it’s worth replying to a 7 year old comment lol. While I agree that tactics had the best story I’d argue the game had the best characters to. A2’s were largely forgettable advance’s were also more memorable but the jail mechanic wasn’t great. As for A2 I like the idea of the story but it was poorly executed. Gameplay was fun though.
I feel like with the three games they fall at different points on the accessibility to depth meter. A2 is the least deep but the most accessible. Tactics is very deep but somewhat hard to get into. Tactics Advance has the best balance of the three. Not too hard to get into, but with some good depth for the less casual fans. All three are fantastic in their own way.

This makes me miss being a kid.
The world feels boundless. You were free more than ever to set your own course on an adventure.
Returning to this lovely gem in 2024
One of the only games I've played over and over and over, yet never get bored of it. This is probably my favorite piece of music in the game.
+Daniel George Know the feel, m8. I love this piece of the OST ♥
This make cry so much

It's so beautiful every time i hear it
Amazing music, full of dream, of fantasy, of adventure!
So beautiful, it reminds me the time I used to play this game with my friends. I'd like to do it again :'3
I really like this music
3 seconds in and i wanna cry
Why this so underrated

I want to play this game again...
Emulators are your friend
Anyone fancy grabbing the Gran Grimoire and reliving their childhood in a fantasy world with their friends?
Im playing this FFA2 in Gameboy Advance version on my iphone, its so good just like the DS ver. Brings back so many memories ^^
somebody have a piano tuturial ? this melody is fantastic
Tactics has the best story
Advance has the best game mechanics
A2 has the best characters
I really like the Advance's story, too. :')
Eeeeeh
I felt like advance had unnecessary mechanics, like the jail system
