    I love how simplistic this is. So many 8-bit music on youtube uses way, way too many channels to even remotely sound like anything that would have actually been on a NES, this is probably the closest I've heard in a long time.

      Technically, it is. The composer uses a emulated synth format called NSF, which contains the 6510 and Z80 code used to run the Famicom sound system. That said, there's often use of extensions like the VRC6, which couldn't be used on the NES, as it lacked the mixer input that the Famicom had.

    If I heard this on an NES final fantasy game I'd have lost my mind. This is a flawless 8 bit rendition and finely distilled nostalgia from a contemporary classic.
    Basically I love this.

      Idk if you know this game, but there used to be a mobile/pc online FF game named "Mobius Final Fantasy" (they turned off the game back a round 2019 iirc). One of the game features is online multiplayer, and it was a turn based game. So maybe that could give us some visions!

    Real nice remix! But it kinda annoys me that people make 8-bit remixes while using 16-bit sprites for images. There is a big distance between the sounds of 8 and 16-bits.

  • @trollingisasport
    @trollingisasport 2 роки тому +3

    After listening to lots of covers of the soundtrack, I'm gonna say something people don't want to hear, this soundtrack is serious held back by its styling and mixing. Not the whole OST. It's still great, I just feel that at times it too modern Japanese muzaik with all the strings and choruses and such. I'm old school. I like the focus to be more on the main melody, bass, etc. than layers and layers of harmonies.

    • @nathsfsongs
      @nathsfsongs  2 роки тому +1

      One of my favorite things regarding 8-bit music composition/remixing is precisely finding out which instruments/parts of song can be converted harmonically to simpler, more focused instruments.
      Sometimes, it can't be a bit overwhelming, I'm currently working on a project that has that many sounds and bits, and I can fully understand your point.

    About the image though...
    Is it just me or do the Sisters look too high resolution compared to the player party to the right?
    Also, the Paladin is clearly the Warrior of Light. Black helmet guy looks like a classic Dragoon so that ought to be Estinien. But I'm having trouble IDing the other two characters in the player party. Help?

    • @winterfire567
      @winterfire567 2 роки тому

      Pretty sure those are just standard job outfits all around. The party is Paladin, Dragoon, Bard and Scholar. As far as I know, there's no NPCs, especially among the Scions, that fit either Bard or Scholar, so I'm pretty sure it's just meant to be a standard party comp of players, rather than the WoL and their companions.

    • @nathsfsongs
      @nathsfsongs  3 роки тому +22

      That's a good question, actually. I know that the most appropriate thing would be to use NES sprites, but I didn't think they would quite convey FF14's aesthetic really that well.
      Also, on FF14's website, the fankit available uses SNES-like sprites, so I ended up using them to create something akin to FF4's battleground.
      To tell you the truth, I even thought about customizing NES Mega Man sprites! (which is where most of my inspiration for 8 bit songs comes from), but I don't really know how to do that on GIMP lol
