Link's Awakening and FFVII's remakes both came out recently, games I really like the music for. I preordered LA, but have not booted it up at all. Having heard samples of the redone music beforehand, I feel like I would be too disappointed and distracted by the arrangements to enjoy the game.
FFVII Remake on the other hand is glorious. I did not want it to end. Bar certain story choices, it was pure magic seeing the characters come to life with so much color and expression. The music is insane. I think there are like 10 different variations of the main battle music. It's a bit unfortunate that the soundtrack mostly sits in the background, with not much opportunity to swell into the spotlight, but I guess that's a casualty of modern game design.
Masashi Hamauzu's original music that he added sounds too similar to his work in FFXIII. All that choral and bells instruments that pop up when you see those whispers almost made me wonder if FFVII was going to be merged into the XIII universe.
