Man I love how arrogant and gleeful Malos in this DLC. Like defeat hasn’t humbled him yet, and the full weight of his existence and purpose for being born hasn’t sunk in yet
Love how this song fits Malos so much because the amalthus remix of it and it has that playful charismatic sense to it. The way Malos in Torna really showed his playful side with doing his evil acts.
I think in TTGC he had just awakened and he was purely acting of instinct (Amalthus' desires etc) that he didn't really have any sort of motive himself. He'd been born with all the tools for destruction. After the loss, the humilation, and not having access to most of his powers for 500 years etc I think he had to rethink a lot of things. He's so different in the base game. He slowly begins realising his role in the world he cannot escape from and it is not a decision he made alone.
Probably due to both times it plays being awfully short if memory serves. This theme got shafted almost as much as battle in the skies above in the main game. Or Death match with Torna for that matter.
JRPG main villain designed by Tetsuya Nomura wielding untold power from the cosmos who believes it is their purpose to destroy the world after having been manipulated by someone who held power over them before? Close enough.
This is WAY WORSE! At the very least Colony 9 and most of its citizens lived another day, even if it costed Fiora’s life. Here, way more people die, Milton included. This causes Mythra to go ape🤬 as she destroys Torna, two other Titans and accidentally kills Hugo in the process. Colony 9 didn’t need the level of repairs like 6 did.
@@SuperLuigiKart64 Alternatively switch all uses of “buddy” by Pixy for “partner”. “Yo, partner, still alive?” “Too bad, partner.” Those legitimately sound like Malos lines. “We’ll start over from scratch with these artifices, and entrust the future of Alrest to the next generation.”
i really wish we got more character specific boss themes. We only really get this and Rosa of all people that play more than once. (So im not counting final boss's or M and the sort)
