The soundtrack of this game ain't that good regardless of the version.
It only gets enjoyable in the endgame because it starts reusing tracks from older games.

dq is too concerned with "muh tradition" of having midishit for all these years

That's the composer's fault, not SE.
He's one of those old japanese semi-nazi guys. He got mad as fuck when discovered the west got the orchestra version of DQ8.

Just wait till it dies and get the soundtrack mod for PC. If you bought the PS4 version well though luck, think twice before buyign a gimped system.

It's the retarded composers fault. Bitch owns the rights to most of the music and gets pissy about licensing it.

No perfect version of this game exists.

>English release has orchestral soundtrack, but shit ass quality tin-can tier voice overs
>JP version has shit MIDI soundtrack, and no shitty voiceovers to grind your ears

composer is a senile nazi fuck who thinks his orchestral CDs will lose sales if they include that music in the game
so he forces SE to use the garbage midi versions

As someone else already said, it's the composer being a stupid old coot that's about to rot and die soon not wanting foreigners to listen to his music for some reason.

and then there's the DS version

Fuckers pretty old. How long do we have to wait till he dies?

Wasn't he like 92 yo?

People always say this but there's never source

>soundtrack
>shit quality
are you hear to talk about the "midi samples" user?

The soundtrack is so bad it actually blows my mind.

If Enix is of an exceptional level of IQ, they should send the guy top class escort models as thanks for his service. These escort models would fuck the guy crazy all night long until he gets a heart attack from overfucking, problem solved.

The 3DS version is the best one though
>b-b--b-bbubt muh graphics

It runs better, battles don't take like 10 seconds to start or finish, no random encounters and there's an undub + orchestra soundtrack
Also you can fuck Jessica instead of the horse, and in the end of the day, that's what it really matters

>release game again
>this time include the orchestral soundtrack
>make a profit with second time buyers
who is playing whom?

That's because it has become common knowledge at this point as far DQ fans are concerned.

I'm in the middle of playing 8 on the DS, just finished helping that shitty prince with the lizards, when do I get to fuck jessica

So at least 10 more years. He is Japanese after all. They live a long damn time lest they kill themselves early.

Post game. It’s one scene with no building whatsoever.

The orchestrated soundtrack is in the game in Japan only
But the sound composer is a douchebag that hates non Japanese people

Why is dragon quest so bad at that shit. What's the point of putting in a romance option if there's no substance to it. They did that shit in 11 too, just "haha okay you're married now" with no cutscenes or fanfare or anything. Shits weak.

Does anyone want to actually post a genuine source instead of regurgitating resetera shit because he sat in an interview with some lady politician that didnt want homo education?

The only reason the west wouldn't get the orchestra version is due to licensing issues. The sound track is composed by Sugiyama, meaning the issue is with him. This has been a common theme for almost every DQ released in the west, we get the shitty version of the music.

You won't find any, it's 100% assumptions.

Pretty much inferred, but no one releasing a expensive product wants to cripple the sales of the product by releasing a lesser version. This either points to a legal dispute or someone with a lot of power in the company arbitrarily making these decisions. DQ music is composed in house so there should be no licensing issues and there is no evidence of a legal dispute of any kind. This points to someone with a lot of power and control over the product making these decisions, this is a decades old problem at this point. Anyone within enix would have probably been straightened out at this point, investor and board members would have slapped them. This points to Sugiyama who has composed music for all the games and actually owns the music. He would be in the position to leverage something so monumentally stupid and not have been straightened out at this point because he owns all of the classic music. Him being a bitter old cunt helps this narrative, but its still only a narrative, we don't have definitive proof of why the west gets the shitty music.
