When I DM tabletop games (like D&D) for my friends, i like to use music to help create atmosphere. When my buddies hear this, they know they're at the final dungeon.
This is by far the best version of _Palace of Decadence_ I've ever heard... Thank you for uploading this and sharing it with the rest of us Firebrands! ;-D
I remember a long time ago when Capcom Unity was doing a Wii eShop point contest based on nostalgic experiences with their 16-bit SNES titles. I did an entry with Demon's Crest, commenting on how this world was one of misery and wonder, and the unusual juxtaposition of Phalanx looking to impose his will on the world using the Crest of Heaven (A starting point, rather. His true aim was to create a conjunction of the six crests to acquire the means of his ultimate conquest- the Crest of Infinity). *Palace of Decadence* feels just like that- It's supposed to be sacred, but is tainted by Phalanx's desire for domination. His palace, styled after the grand gothic cathedrals of the Human Realm, feels more like a profane mockery- a house of hubris. I ended up winning those 2000 eShop points. :)
I really liked the gothic music of Demon's Crest. It fit very well with the tone of the game. That said, 100% the game can be annoying, but that kinda comes with the G&G franchise as a whole. I wish we got more Demon games, because I think they CAN work. Though that requires Capcom to cooperate...That out of the way, I really like this version. Something about the sound of the original could be very unintentionally ear piercing and tinny, but this shows what the song SHOULD sound like. Any chance we'll hear a version of the iconic "Beyond the Colosseum"?
@@danythepunisher914 también me hace pensar en que es un palacio dado que le pertenece al entonces rey phalanx y como a este solo le importa el poder no es un buen líder demoniaco, de ahí la decadencia o bueno al menos eso imagino yo
Well, imagine Ghosts N Goblins (same franchise, it's a spin-off) combined with Metroid/Castlevania elements. It's great. Should've been in SNES Classic.
