Rank the Numbered FF Soundtracks

[Wolf Kanno]

What it says on the tin. Fifteen games (or just the ones you've played) how would you rank them?

Here’s a proper list of the numbered games I’ve played (excluding MMOs). As maybee said, though, this fluctuates a lot

12. FFX
11. FFVIII
10. FFIII
9. FFI
8. FFIV
7. FFII
6. FFXII
5. FFIX
4. FFXIII
3. FFVII
2. FFV
1. FFVI

It’s still hard to arrange them because I don’t think I actively dislike a single one of them

If i have to rank all 15 then:

V-XIV-XII-IX-VI-IV-II-VII-VIII-XIII-X-III-I

I haven't really listened to XI and the sequel games music is kinda meh. So i will fill in the blanks by ranking the expansion soundtracks of XIV.

There we go. now to go into hiding for 2000 years once more. weee hee hee

I'll have to exclude 1-5 from my list since it's been absolute ages since I listened to those.
Disclaimer: Judging these not by in-game, but out-of-game. (this matters a lot in some themes' cases, such as the exploration theme in FFXV being interrupted by random crap all the time in-game, not allowing you to actually hear the theme properly)

10. XII
9. X
8. XIII
7. VII
6. VI
5. VIII
4. IX
3. XV
2. XI
1. XIV

Note: XI and XIV kind of cheat because their expansions also expand their music selection. :p

I've only recently properly listened to all the FF soundtracks and (even though my nostalgia still prefers FFVII) FFXIII has some incredible music. I still haven't played it but the music has almost brought me to tears even without playing the game.
