Ignore this thread.

I think I jumped the gun, and had nostalgia muffled ear muffs :)

The SNES version does actually sound this poor. I just compared the SNES OST to this one properly.

I think the initial menu FF theme was GBA though, as it sounds awful and there is no initial music on SNES (it jumps straight to Butz riding his chocobo), and then when I listened to many of the songs in the music player I was not impressed at all coming from FF6.

But I think the FF6 OST is just better, they managed to really synthesise that MIDI crap properly on SNES. FF5 on the other hand...

I wouldn't be this picky if I didn't have an excellent sound system that really highlights inadequacies.

So, I'm quite certain that the PC version of Final Fantasy V already has SNES music.

It's a port of the mobile version, which already restored the music from the GBA version.

Um, well all the songs I played from within the music player ingame were GBA soundfonts, GBA quality.

There are some other threads about it on the Steam forums too, people have noticed.

It's very different quality from FF6 where they used the original SNES soundfonts, and it sounds awesome.

I have a high quality sound system too, and this awful low quality music is soooo bad to my ears, I can't play the game as is...

It would be AMAZING if the atrocious GBA music could be modded away and replaced with SNES music.

I found this on the QHIMM forums, but it doesn't look like anyone is working on it... sniff.
