This is getting addicting

Poppy power

@@monsieurtaconommer8500 Leave this to Poppi

this comment's everywhere it's starting to get annoying tbh

@@spacesomeone yeah but here I can make the Poppy joke

The real question is... why not?

His ancestor is, one of the hardest uniques in the game

I would’ve loved a young rotbart like the relentless arduran

@@boywonder1162 it would have been cool actually, but idk if their lifespans are that long lmao.

@@seb3082 Anime is temporary, Rotbart never dies.

I like your view on it

@SNES Nes Thank you so much! So pumped to see what multi-layered symbolism comes out of XC3. The trailers have been jam-packed with ideas from Xenogears and Xenosaga, so I pre-ordered a game for the first time in 10 years...

@@maximmillennia Thank you! I want to extend it further into a take on the corruption of things in the early 1900's, but there are so many metaphors within metaphors in these games, unraveling that has been a challenge.

@@luketatum4867 so…how was xeno 3?

Art Deco was more of a 30's design.

yeah I agree

Spotted the music nerd. Same here

Prepping for the release of Definitive Edition!

@@JOEVGM Ooo, very excited for that!

You mean: A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.

Let's get this to 1M views

@RBCorsiva Oh boy... it’s SO much more than that. The story, gameplay, and the music. The voice acting is good, just the lip-sync. But I don’t need to be telling you this. She’s in for an excellent, if not great, ride. Glad you convinced her and got her hooked!

how tf is xenoblade underrated

@@smugtree4874 You don’t think so? I mean it’s by no means a small franchise, and considerably well known, but that doesn’t mean that it necessarily gets the respect it deserves for what a great series it is. Respect as in recognition and players

@@loaftreos3825 boo hoo

Welcome to club wielder of the Monado

With the power of JAZZ!

so... do you like JAZZ?

Nah I like the original better, my favorite theme in the game actually. This is my second favorite by association of course.

They basically just did an over-the-top(in a good way) Jazz cover of their own song. That's just crazy.

Yasunori Mitsuda, that's how

@@fofo-ms6ck *simpleton*

maybe... not the best choice of words... its a pretty wooded area

@@fofo-ms6ck they also roasted torigoth lol

I mean... just because this is jazz doesn't mean Persona music is not jazz

@@Rides1283man persona music is acid jazz, this is closer to traditional jazz but still not exactly.

@@brink7894 there is no such thing as "traditional" jazz. Jazz has evolved so much over the years and encompasses so much music, you can't really say that some jazz is less jazzy than others

@@Rides1283man actually i can. traditional jazz uses chord progressions built on 2-5s and has a down beat on the 2 and 4 in a 4/4 progression. generally speaking it’ll be more focused on improvisation so that each individual player is allowed more self expression. comparatively, acid jazz takes those concepts of improvisation and uses a more electronic sound to it, with a more standardized beat; for the most part they land on the 1 and 3, which is relatively common in western music. it uses a lot of the same concepts as traditional jazz does; colorful 7th chords, improvised layers, etc. but the music is more focused on the demonstration of unique chord colors than the demonstration of improvisation, as well as being “funkier” than traditional jazz. much of the torna OST gets closer to traditional jazz sounds and ideas, being improvised and having very natural sounds, whereas persona has a lot more of the poppy, acid jazz sounds. my original comment, admittedly, was a bit hyperbolic for the sake of getting likes, but don’t act like i don’t know what i’m talking about. when i hear this song versus a persona song, i’m calling this jazz before i’m calling persona music jazz.

@@brink7894 since when was traditional jazz the "base" of jazz? Although you could consider things that started jazz, like New Orleans jazz as "traditional jazz", how does that make other forms of jazz less jazzy? Jazz changing over the years shows that no subgenre of jazz is "truly" jazz or the "standard" of jazz. Classifying and basically treating different types of jazz inequally is the same mindset of people who considered bebop as a betrayal of jazz. All types of jazz are jazz, period. There is no need for jazz to be closer to so-called "traditional" jazz in order for it to be jazz.

They are deft. my favorite xenoblade songs. It's so cool

According to an interview with the game's director the jazzy soundtrack for Torna was because he watched the movie whiplash and because of that he really wanted to include jazz into the main game's soundtrack, but it was too late to change up the music style so he just saved it for the dlc.

What do you mean by the "main game's second part"?

I think they just mean 2 with the 'main game' just being Xenoblade 1​@duckymouth

It's great. Tragic and depressing, but great.

Best part of the xeno series, to me at least. Should definantly play if you like 2 in anyway

I still think 1 is overall the best game, but Torna is 2 but streamlined and improved imo, very very good

It's really good, it's nowhere near as good as xenoblade 2 but it expands on torna and is still amazing

As Xenoblade 1 fan, Torna was had most of what I wanted from XC2.

Are you referring to piano, right?

Killler observation!

The suspense is killing me!

INDEED!

Jass?

Fusion

Hmm, the closest thing I could think of would be a "jazz remix" although I'm not sure that fits it.

I never really got the appeal of the original Gormott theme, it felt like a weaker and less memorable version of Gaur Plain This version fixes all the problems I had with it and makes it *cool as heck*

mmm, a bit. Thanks for making me think

Oh that’s crazy it does sound like that

You mean 1.5

@@loaftreos3825 How would it be 1.5? This is an expansion to a sequel of Xenoblade 1, 1.5 would give it closer proximity to Xenoblade 1 than the main Xenoblade 2 game has, which would be wrong. It'd be 2.5 if anything, the Gormott theme in the main game would be 2.0. And honestly this is a pretty far cry from Gaur Plains at this point.

@@Xane875 Torna is a prequel to XC2. End statement

@@loaftreos3825 Okay but it was released after and is a supplement to 2. It isn't an in between game for 1 and 2, it exists only in relation to 2. The Gormott theme in the main game was created first, and this is a modified version of that. That would make this either 2.5 or 3.0. Though I say that very loosely, as like I said before, this version of Gormott does not at all carry the same energy or vibe as Gaur Plains. The soundtracks should be gauged in order of release, not in order of chronology. Soundtrack discussion is a meta discussion, so using in game chronology for it makes absolutely no sense. End of discussion.

@@Xane875 Agree to 2.5 then

this has to be recorded. There's too much detail for it to be computer generated. If you listen very closely you can tell. If you want to compare live track to a synthesized track, listen to the "Hidden Machina Village" from the original Xenoblade and the Definitive Edition. The Wii version of this song is synthesized, while the switch one is recorded.

@@MrJamieRose Mostly all of the original Xenoblade 1 ost is synthesized

@@weirdo7319 yeah. Live orchestras are very expensive. I doubt they were given enough budget to record all of the pieces. They can pay a composer, a transcriber, and a few engineers, or all of that plus 30+ musicians, they could save thousands of dollars.

@@MrJamieRose a few that weren't remastered are unfinished battle and I think the prologue themes

They had a real choir, at least. The one from Prague. And I think some musicians are named in the credits, too.

If you liked even a scintilla of 2, yes.

How

This song puts anything from Paper Mario in the dirt.

@@zetarrro jazz

because this awesome thing called the jazz genre exists, you should check it out!

Ah yes, cuz persona totally invented jazz.

@@UltimaPhoenix-dx3kt you are also braining apparently

Pls stop

Just wait until you visit Japan, they made an entire country after persona 5!
