    @@geletrode Eh, I mean yeah it can be played like a single player game, but the problem is that it takes like 30-40 hours for the story to get engaging and it takes even longer before the gameplay becomes engaging. I dare say most Jobs feel absolutely boring to play below Level 70 and the Normal mode content isn't very fun to engage in below then either. It's hard to have an FF14 MSQ stream without your whole stream revolving around it for weeks on end. I'm not saying it *can't* be fun before then, but I feel like you really have to take advantage of the MMO side of things to stay engaged. I struggle to believe anyone can solely play the "single player" aspects and genuinely say it was fun until several hours have passed.

Just, the storytelling of this song. Feigned embrace of their new forms, followed by Freudian admission that it was projection, followed by surrender to what they were put through. Also, it was still composed by Soken. It was arranged by Takafumi Imamura.

He hasn't actually composed much of what we got in the last 3 years or so, and left that up to his protegés. So yes, that means most Shadowbringers and Endwalker songs aren't Soken.

    @Fusajiro yeah, Soken is still writing, everyone else is arranging. I might be wrong but this sounds like Soken, very typical of his use of leitmotif from his jazz background, then arranged by Takafumi Imamura who definitely does a metal kind of thing. Embers from 8 is a master class is leitmotif, obviously Soken. Close in the Distance didnt sound like Soken to me for some reason because of the arrangement by the Godhead guy/voice of Raubahn, but the new arrangement for the new tribe quest is obvious. I think most people forget Soken's roots are jazz, while he has thrown in some obvious jazz tracks the footprint is still obvious on other stuff, he writes in jazz for lack of a better explanation, which also makes it easier to arrange and re-arrange.

    This song was very hype before we even knew it's actual name (it was featured in a patch trailer) and I guarantee that everyone had a similar reaction to "What is that? Where is this from? THIS IS LIT" and you can bet that most ppl were singing/screaming along when we finally found it where it is from. However it took a while to figure out the lyrics (and then we got the official ones). About Akino, I think personally, the biggest shocker for me was the fact that she's a POP singer and POP is her genre but she went with Scream like she had a different genre under her belt for years.

    FFXIV has no shortage of ASTOUNDING songs, as you well know. Hell, when In The Balance came out, that blew everyone away. And then Scream happened, and the fact that this song isn't even used for a **MAIN** Raid boss, but two of the bosses leading up to them (and the instrumental version (Silent Scream) being used for the boss before these two), people were blown away by this one too. Less so by the following one, but I'd still say you might want to give it a shot. The theme for the boss of Pandaemonium 8 is called White Stone Black. (To explain the raid boss thing, for the 8-man Raid tiers, each series comes out with essentially a set of 4 boss fights per tier, for a total of three tiers per expansion. These are usually abbreviated as the first letter of the Raid (A for Alexander, O for Omega, E for Eden, and P for Pandaemonium. People just call Bahamut "Coils"), and the number on the sequence of 12 overall boss fights. Scream is used for the Boss theme for P6 and P7, and Silent Scream (the instrumental) is the boss theme for P5.)

    I do like Silent Scream a bit better as well, though I find that knowing about the lyrics in this version kind of adds to the silent version. Like its looming in the distance. Kind of like you usually have the more quiet/relaxed takes on a zone theme when it's night, or the dynamic shifts in older alliance raids, Eureka/Bozja, frontline PvP etc. They also kind of did something similar with Asphodelos 1-3 towards 4, though its a much bigger shift. Even the normal Aglaia theme kinda hints at "In the Balance".

Yet no words can escape their lips. Its even more insane if you think like this Carbuncle fight them is Called silent scream...yet the two female bosses are Scream followed by extremely foreboding lyrics.

    The track plays for both the second and third boss of the raid. The second boss, Hedgemony, is the big girl with a snake and starcraft II looking wing coming out of her back. The third boss, Agdistis, is the big tree girl. The track for the first boss, Proto-Carbuncle, is called "Silent Scream", and it's just a less metal slightly more symphonic version of the song without vocals.

    "Still bound to the flame that I bear" shares a motif with a small section of the Radz-at-Han music. I still haven't figured out why- aside from the fact that raiders spend no small amount of time in Radz sorting out the gear they get. You know, from Pandæmonium, haha.

    The way so many boss fights in this game are actually synced up with the music is great. I'm sure hoping you've done In The Balance or that you will, because it just blew my mind the first time I saw 24 people just moving their characters in a single co-ordinated dance across the floor to perfectly dodge every single explosion and danger zone, all in sync to a song like something out of Disney's Aladdin. Like I didn't think I'd ever consider fight mechanics in an MMO beautiful, but goddamn if that moment didn't touch me in all the right ways.

    Context: This music plays as a theme to the Endwalker expansion's 'Pandaemonium' raid series. This is strongly based on Dante's Inferno.That's why there is a loud and dark theme to the music. You were also correct. The chorus was indeed synchronized to the boss fight. You caught it the first time, and the second was "Tumbling" when you were sent up into the air in a tumble.

    I've never touched FFXIV, but this song is awesome! It has an early 2000's alternative feel to it, like Linkin Park, which I adore. Also, when that chorus hits, I just imagine a hero has entered an evil berserk form and that's the part when they lunge at the bad guy for a beatdown. Fun fact: The vocalist, AKINO, is known for her work on the Aquarion openings.

    There are definitely points in fights that line up with the music, and they'll also have transitions in some fights to different songs mid battle sometimes. They don't do it in every fight, but some fights line up specifically with music. Just to mix things up a bit, I'm gonna reccomend the Safi'jiiva theme from Monster Hnter World. It's definitely one of the coolest boss themes in any game I've played. It goes on a journey, so pick the extended if you do listen to it.

    Yeah it goes between two bosses because this is shared between the bosses Hegemone and Agdistis. They're both conceptually similar to the final boss from the first Pandaemonium wing in that they've been forcibly combined with some kind of monster, and Scream actually shares some leitmotifs with his Hic Svnt Leones (and of course this song even has the line 'Here Be Lions").

  • @temporalwolf7054
    @temporalwolf7054 Жыл бұрын

    So a bit of context on the title and bosses. Hegemony (lady with the tentacles) and Agdistis (the tree) are two separate bosses that share a theme rather than phases of one fight. And as cool as the synced attack to the song was, that unfortunately was an editing trick for the video. That said, goddamn is the song a great for these bosses, as they're corrupted wardens in a jail for creatures and concepts deemed too dangerous to be allowed to exist but too valuable to just kill.

Can't wait for this section of the soundtrack to be released on an album. Also, I have to admit the best thing about the FFXIV fans on this channel is that they reliably pick the most popular, obviously-a-banger songs so I have the opportunity to make a list of songs that are a little more obscure lol.

    This sounds like Evanescence so much. Loved to fight with the song. the bad part: I was too busy banging my head to notice boss mechanics. BTW: the smash on the ground by the boss (the one you asked if it happens during gameplay) it was just in synch by the video editor (or a coincidence) This video features the 6th and 7th circle of the pandemonium (aka 2 bosses)
