Respectfully, nope and hard disagree What would you consider non mediocre musical scores from VG's from the last decade?

I remember SE made a survey for the fans on a global scale asking about what they thought of FFXV demo back then. Yoko Shimomura work ranked the highest. The music got a great average of 9.3 out of 10. Her work on XV score is nothing short of amazing IMO, and according to the feedback, most people seem to agree. Modern FF game have issues for sure, but the quality of the music is not one of them. I wouldn't bother to reference some XV tracks since the matter is highly subjective.

It is kind of hard to be that much hyped for a title of a game. No matter how good the previous game was :p
FFXVI full reveal took people by surprise, they showed a fair deal of the game.
Tempted to download and try FFXV Royal Edition.. I tried getting into the game (shortly after launch) but couldn't due partly due to sluggish nature of the movement and input lag. Which should be alleviated somewhat by the performance mode. I read somewhere its enhanced on PS5 - 4K/60 can anyone confirm?
Never bring up an arbitrary number. It's like Meta scores. It's a number that says literally nothing. It does not go into detail. It's just a number. You can't compare the art with a number. Hey, I can say The Ninja Warriors Arcade Soundtrack is a 10/10. Does that mean it's better than the 9.3 soundtracks? One is an arcade action game. The other is an RPG. One is to be upbeat to keep with the action. The other is to set tones and moods. Aiming for something entirely different. So even if I were to agree with a 9.3. It doesn't make Ninja Warriors better at a 10 when they aim for something entirely different. Now I can compare FFIX to FFVII in the same genre and series yes as to which one I enjoyed more. That said I would not put a number as FFIX OST is different than what FFVII is aiming for with its tone and story. Music helps tell a story. FFXV has an incomplete story and what is there, is bad. So the music can't really help tell it. It's not a very memorable OST. Like I said. No FF has had a bad OST. But none are very memorable. I can hear every FFIX track in my head. Can you remember every FFXV track in yours?
As for a number, it tells nothing about the art in analytical detail. It's a person who is saying "your opinion is invalid because a number that is someone else's opinions says so" You are not speaking yours but posting someone else's....in a simpler way that also just tells me jack shit. Don't reference the website's opinions. Speak your own.

On Lite mode it is it is 60 fps but I think the 4k is upscaled not native:

No one is flying off the handle. I wasn't addressing you either. Just the person who brought up the 9.3. Don't take the post as angry. It's just being firm in making a statement. There is zero emotion behind it.

I presented Square Enix's (not website's) survey results as a supporting factor to my opinion/argument, not as a fact that you can't disagree with. Yes, a number doesn't say much, but it says this: Most people who experienced it, and voted, liked the music. As I said this matter is highly subjective, there are no facts here.
Since you asked. Some of the track are very memorable for me. Apocalypsis Noctis is stuck with me. I loved Veiled in Black Agression. I remember a few others but I can't remember the titles. My favorite ,however, is Invidia, can't get it out of my head:
