Rate the video game music above you! (Version 20XX)

6/10. It's OK. One of those tracks that fits the area it plays well enough but isn't really worth listening to separately. Comfortably average.

 

[gimmepie]

Credit where it's due, that is some badass music. 9/10

 

[Vragon2.0]

8/10. Would be higher, but the intro didn't really seem to flow well with the rest of the track, which happily made up for it. Not that the intro was bad, just the transition felt too abrupt for this specific track.


Very, Vehement Rage.

 

[gimmepie]

It made me want to march. I'm not sure how to feel about that. Good music though. 7/10

 

[pkmin3033]

6/10. I'm not overly fond of children humming, and it kinda ruins the creepy vibe the track has going for it, at least for me. I like how it builds up though!

 

[Vragon2.0]

8.2/10, I really like the flow of this one. The rapid pacing that seems to thump like a heart on adrenaline also really helps to invest me into the track. It's probably only in the 8's since it doesn't have much more outside of being a good piece. I'm sure if I played the game though, it would be higher.


Now if only I could read the time.

8/10
Feels very dramatic and explorative, good mood song. I really like string and percussion combo.

 

[pkmin3033]

10 minutes from OOT huh I wonder what this i---NO.
7/10

 

[Wuzzy]

7/10, it's pretty good overall though it is repetitive (which is expected of any battle theme I find anyways). I like the piccolo (I'm assuming) solo in the background which makes the piece feel unique since I haven't heard anything like this before

 

[Vragon2.0]

8.3/10, ah yes, I remember the big whiplash I felt just stumbling upon this level. The music really sets the atmosphere for this area and honestly fits extremely well for the setting and perhaps even the grandious effects that the above levels have compared to ... well you know. While not my favorite track from Skyward Sword, it's definitely nothing to sneeze at.


Hmm...what can I say that'd be a good reference and not spoil something? Hmm..."bunny ride"?

 

[gimmepie]

10/10
Holy shit. That's really pretty. I wasn't expecting that.

 

[pkmin3033]

6/10. It's alright. Probably sounds better in game than out of it. Maybe I'm just disenchanted because this is the kind of thing I have on every morning when I work and I don't think of it as music as much as I do background noise. xD

 

[Vragon2.0]

8/10, A nice bit sounding track. I can definitely see it fitting a castle as background ost. Makes me wonder what goes on in there or how big the castle is explorative wise.


Burroughs, play Shin Megami Tensei IV's main theme on surround sound.

 

[gimmepie]

8/10
Feels like music from the Matrix movies in places haha. Sure it suitably dramatic and intense though, especially that opening segment.

 

[pkmin3033]

5/10. Ehhhhh...I have to give it points for being atypically sinister of Pokemon, but it's just not very interesting to listen to. I guess it gets an A for Effort and an E for everything else?

I'm uninspired today, so here's something from Final Fantasy!

 

[Vragon2.0]

6/10. Probably fits better in-game, but other than that, it's kinda outdone by other choir-esque pieces from other games like Bayonetta, Xenoblade, Nier, Soulsborne, and some indie titles.


Such a pretty place. Now if only everything wasn't strong enough to kill you.

 

[pkmin3033]

11/10 this is easily the best theme I've heard in a video game outside of the NieR soundtrack. Xenoblade's OST, like everything else, can't hold a candle to NieR's, but there are one or two tracks that surpass it, and that is definitely one of them. Shame the remixed version was so mediocre, but then I suppose you can't really improve upon perfection...

 

[orchidhorde]

I've never played the video game, but Skyrim has a pretty atmospheric soundtrack. I also like Ori and the will of the wisps and some Zelda music. What do you all think?

9/10 I love how it starts with just the piano, builds up to those dramatic instrumentals, then descends. For some reason I'm getting a Tales vibe from it, same composer?

And since Halloween is coming up:

 

[gimmepie]

8/10
I really need to actually play the Witcher games. They sound fun and the music is always excellent.


I'll use Halloween as an excuse to post another Corpse Party track heh
