Growing up, my big brother got me into FF. He was into FF until 8 came out, then he kinda drifted away from them. As a kid, I never got to play and beat any of them, because he would always take his memory card so I always had to restart them from the beginning and play as much as I could, but it was still so fun. Anyways, after we got a PS2, the PS1 kind of sat there unplayed. One day I got to borrow FF9 from a friend and it was the first one I had all to myself, didn't have to take turns as my brothers were using the PS2 by now. The memories from this game, especially the music, it resonates with me so much. The happiness I get from hearing the music from these games, especially remixed this way, it brings so many feelings up in me. Happiness, longing for the time in my childhood, remembering when I didn't have to worry about money or bills or my GPA. I know I can never go back, and accept it, but just for a moment... this music can bring me there. It's funny how so much of the story just goes over your head as a kid, you only really focus on who is the bad guy, and how do you beat them up. Now in my adult life, I relate to Vivi so much. Figuring out what my purpose is, and trying to find the strength to go on even when I feel like giving up.

When your Tv is dying but Final Fantasy ix just came out .

[everchosenlord]

this is probably one of the best ideas an human could have.

[suzannerosenzweig]

My husband and I bonded over our love for FFIX when we first met. Wondered how long this video has been around and realized it was published on our one-year anniversary! Super cool! We love this playlist. <3

[marioescalante]

FF IX is my favorite and doesn't get as much attention as it should be, it deserves a remaster!

[timsmusicstuff]

As a fan of both FF9 and lofi, this is one of the most tasteful mashups of two things I love. It's not easy to do well, but you did.

[jedschrock]

I imagine that this version of "You Are Not Alone" is what would play if Zidane decided to sit down and sort through the truth, rather than go on a giant monster killing rampage.

[damienjohn]

I played IX at a very strange time in my life and have come to associate that period with it's OST.
Hearing it in this way paints those memories in a whole new light that is way more in line with where I was mentally.
Never thought I'd get emotional over lo-fi FFIX beats but here we are...!

[lolindirlink]

What a great addition to YouTube in 201IX

[fictionalforest]

"Oooh, soft"

This is dope, you are talented, thank you for this. There's a community of us who hold this game above every other, we understand each other

[joeojeda]

So good! I used to be alone at my house while my mom was sweating bullets at work.Thanks mom for letting me be a kid!!

[sergiofasano]

I played FFIX when it came out and I was 8 years old. The brother of my best friend bought it, played it a little and left it because he was more into FF8..
I knew nothing about this game.. yes I knew a little about the Final Fantasy world which also intrigued me.
Then I saw the game case and it called me somehow..
I asked to borrow it and the answer was: ''yeah man, sure.. '' (with a tone of someone who wanted to get rid of it).
I started playing it...

Man.. I still have a lucid photo of that moment from over 25 years ago, as if I just lived it.
I can feel the emotions.. the sense of awe and that something that just entered my soul and changed my life forever.
Incredible.. and a little bizarre you may think.. how can a videogame can do that?
I still don't know it myself.. but I feel as if this game is a part of me and did good to me.
not as if.. it actually is a part of me!!!


And I have learnt so much from it. Almost as if this game taught me how to live.. :)

[jojoa.]

Laying in my room, window slightly cracked open with rain pouring outside, and its 10:24pm this is playing.

Life is good.

My first exposure to FFIX was when I was in elementary school. My dad played the game with my and my little brother by his side. He would read all the dialog, and give every character a unique voice, and bleep out all of the swear words. He played it all the way through 2, maybe 3 times. When we got older he passed the game down to me, and I played it 4 or 5 times. I did EVERYTHING in that game. Card collecting, all the chocobo hot and cold, the 3 secret bosses, daguero, every secret treasure chest, the Ruby easter eggs, everything! I played the game so much that my PS1 discs burnt out and became completely unplayable (the bottom of the disc is just buffed out and unplayable) and i had to buy a new "greatest hits" copy. I bought the game again on Steam (and am about to do a playthrough on my gaming channel). I have played this game in childhood and replayed over and over through adolescence and several times in adulthood too. The nostalgia is a huge factor, but the game (cheesy as it sounds) shaped me into who I am. I learned compassion and what it means to be human from this game. It always makes me emotional -- and every time i play it, i want to be a better person -- someone that little kid in the early 2000s, watching their dad play that game, would be proud of. Thanks for this remix. It upheld the soul of the soundtrack and gave it a little something new too. Fans of IX all know how special this game is, even if it seemingly always lies a little underappreciated. We know what it's all about.

[Hathor.]

This is the game i love the most. The nostalgia in the music, the journey, the characters.. So deep, so lonely and so damn aesthetic hahaha i used to play this gamr with my brothers, and since we finally beat the final boss everything started being different, i dont talk to them anymore and I was just a kid back then. But thx to this game I have good and happy memories with my brothers. =)

[Trick.Sparrow]

I'm so happy to see that the youtube algorithm is working well enough to show me this exact thing that I'm into
And I'm even happier you made this, thank you

[boardgamewizard]

Hey man, I'm am border line obsessed with FF9 it's a combination of it being a good game but also having a special connection with it for reasons too many and long to explain. Anyways, I just wanted to say thank you. This is some DOPE chill remixes that do not ruin the emotion of the songs original intent, great work my friend. I want to pay you more than what your charging for your work, PM me with a paypal or venmo account that I can send you something for your efforts.

[MrEgann]

how is it possible that 39 persons disklike this masterpiece...
Great job, FFIX is my favourite game, the only one I cried because i've finished it.. the OST is one of the best ever, Nobuo Uematsu did a fantastic job, but so Did you.

[ClockDevil]

This game is a lesson of life itself hehe

[Imimabouki]

My heart is crying beacause of both happiness and nostalgia
