Decided to fix up one of my sheets from earlier this year.

Play As All Stars Fall before this for extra sadness, if you desire.

I made some minor edits to spacings and also showed a crescendo that was unintentionally hidden.

Sorry for the wait. Here's some stuff!
- How about LH tremolos as pickups to m. 1 and 5 similar to the pickup to m. 9?
- You could try making the top melody octaves in m. 5-9 to make it stand out more.
- Hearing a Bb below the chord on beat 2 of m. 9, not the Eb within it.
- Thoughts about making the LH treble clef fro m. 7 beat 2 to the end of m. 24?
- I think the LH Bb in m. 19 should have an Ab under it
- RH in m. 30-31 is missing a few subtle notes I think are needed to flesh out the right hand a bit better. Hearing Cn under the two F's in m. 30, and Ab under the Eb in m. 31.
- Small suggestion: flipping the group of four eighth notes in the measures at the end to make the downward contour to the lower staff more apparent.
- It sounds to me like the LH chords in m. 33+ should be inverted up once or twice to produce a somewhat lighter sound.

Other than that, looks great! Glad to see more Fates stuff going up.

Pretty much everything was fixed except a few things:

- How about LH tremolos as pickups to m. 1 and 5 similar to the pickup to m. 9?

I added one at the start but I left it out in m.5 as I felt it would be too distracting.

- RH in m. 30-31 is missing a few subtle notes I think are needed to flesh out the right hand a bit better. Hearing Cn under the two F's in m. 30, and Ab under the Eb in m. 31.

I don't hear the Ab in bar 31, but I did hear an F underneath the Eb so I added that.

Also this is one of those sheets that I swear every time I look at it I find more stuff to improve.  I added a missing note in bar 2 and added a roll on the first chord in bar 1.  I also adjusted some rolls here and there.

- It sounds to me like the LH chords in m. 33+ should be inverted up once or twice to produce a somewhat lighter sound.

A good point, although I feel like the really important thing here is to get a consistent sound which I certainly wasn't before but which I now am.  (This was achieved only by inverting chords upwards so you'll be happy anyway!)

Thanks for checking, and no worries about the wait.

I don't hear the Ab in bar 31, but I did hear an F underneath the Eb so I added that.

Listening again I hear both. It's got the sound of Bb7sus4.

Hmm it's pretty quiet, at least to me anyway, but I've added it.  Also I put in an extra An in bar 30 below the chord.

Sounds good.

First of all, can you never post that picture ever again latios.
thanks

Secondly, this is the 2nd sheet in a row I'm accepting that has a good ost while being a bad game, but even more so in each direction than FFXIII.
