What, did you miss the part where I said it looked like shit? The art direction isn't "varied", it's a mish mash of asset rips from other games haphazardly cobbled together into a mess of nostalgia-baiting crap.
>it spans way more
Wow, news just in, eating shit is good because there's lots of it! I guess you must be indian or something. You can barely call the senseless repeating of identical themes "leitmotifs", for fuck's sake, a random lv90 dungeon where you go beat up some wildlife on a nature reserve uses the motif of... Hydaelyn's theme? For some fucking reason? The music almost never narratively fits the situation.

>Do you even know what a leitmotif is?
Do you? Where are the actual thematic motifs in XIV's soundtrack? They just throw them around willy-nilly, see above.
>There's this thing called an artstyle
Again, what artstyle? The artstyle of literally asset flipping from 11, 12, and 13? Is that an artstyle now? The crystal tower being full of random FF13 mobs? Ivalice just being there, for... some reason? Basically everything being bad upscales of FF11's models? That's an artstyle to you. That's cohesion. Sure.
>FF7 features areas with very different architecture and environments
This might just be the most absurd and delusional complaint to make about 13. Every part of the game is incredibly distinctive and unique. The sunleth waterscape looks distinct from everywhere else on cocoon, and despite being a natural landscape, is completely different from the wilds of pulse. Palumpolum looks entirely different to Eden, despite both being cityscapes on cocoon. Even the different areas of pulse are immediately identifiable.
>try to be less of an overemotional fanboy
The irony is absolutely insane, given that you threw a tantrum and cried to the jannies to take down a post that proved your delusional hissy fit wrong.
