Hint

I still have the PS2 version.

I am currently playing it. I do want the 3DS version. It seems to have some improvements and they seem to alter some cutscenes that I do agree that needed to be changed. Example of the David part.

the downgrade in music is probably either because they did an inferior remix or simply the 3DS sound quality.

Music still sounds fine to me despite not sounding orchestral like the ps2 version. Its not as good but still plays nearly the same.

the Japanese 3DS version got the Orchestra music (and its Japan's first time with that music actually) while got a more midi remix of the tracks (although still better than the Japan old PS2 midis) I think we got midis because of strange copyright problems SE had, similar with DQ7. Maybe they didn't just want to pay the money for it. I think the music we got sounds fine and nice.

There are no random encounters and no waiting with the alchemy pot in the 3DS version too. Those are real game changers. There's also a new series of side quests asking you to take pictures of landmarks. The PS2 version has a cooler looking inventory screen though. Maybe some people think elaborate menus are outdated but I miss it.
