You saying that Dialga's Fight To The Finish isn't very threatening as a final boss thing is actually very on point, because while Dialga is the final boss of the first campaign and an incredibly daunting battle both in terms of story and in gameplay, he is explicitly not an enemy: he is just as much a victim of the events of the game and quite literally going insane in the process, and the goal of the fight is ultimately not to defeat him, but to save him, and everyone else too. The hopeful and heroic yet also poignant and almost melancholic theme of the song reference that since you are essentially forced to fight an innocent person, but they are the last hurdle to jump over in order to save everyone including them. Just gotta struggle a bit more.

@thebigdeitz2535 Год назад

I love the melancholy feel of the song especially because you fight knowing that if you succeed, you will cease to exist. The music perfectly describes the situation you’re in which is something I can say for most of the soundtrack

@vivvy_0 Год назад

also knowing your fate when you defeat dialga makes it more harrowing

@egan452 Год назад

It's also just got a lot of weight to the stakes, the important factor of the fight isn't that it's dangerous and menacing, but that it's very dire, everything rests on it and so there's a sense of resolve, of steeling yourself for one last hurrah, into the fray

@heldon7951 Год назад

2:49:25 for some reason I've never heard anyone else mention this, but I believe that the reason the song slows down here is to nod to the fact that (slight spoilers) there is actually a time gear at Northern Desert. At this point in the game, the members of the guild are trying to find the locations of the time gears. The protagonists don't know it yet, but they've come so very close in finding one of them, and this is a hint at that fact. Nowhere else in the game does the music slow down in this manner, it's awesome

@heldon7951 Год назад

Ohhh it also plays at 4:50:55 in Time Restored

@sugasnaps Год назад

Wow! I've played this game many times and listened to the ost even more, and I never picked up on this! Aside from it being a cool nod to that fact, the slowed down part also just sounds cool as hell. Northern Desert is one of my favorite tracks in part because of it

@gbach919 Год назад

I love that part of the song where it slows down, but I never put two and two together that it could be a story nod. That's so cool!

@Hadaron Год назад

8:05:08 - There’s actually a great reason for this, even in a narrative sense! About 30 minutes after this in-game, a character ends up saying something to the effect of “I felt a moment when we were together, when your distrust of me started to disappear”. It’s pretty clever musical foreshadowing.

Actually, now that I think of it, it’s probably closer to an hour or two later, all depending on how well you can play.

Dialga's fight to rhe finish will always be the best final boss theme in Pokemon history. It invokes every emotion u feel when fighting.

@endernightblade1958 Год назад

amazing as it is, i wouldn’t say fight to the finish is entirely uncontested. Dark Matter 2, PLA vs Giratina, and the SV final boss track all rank pretty close to it on my personal list, heck DM2 i would say eclipses it, though that may be my own bias showing. point being: i think it’s actually surprisingly close.

@KogasaTatara514 Год назад

@@endernightblade1958yeah, I agree. Not to downplay the theme at all, but I do believe Dialga's Fight to the Finish is just a bit overrated. Again, just so nobody thinks I'm hating on it, it is still absolutely amazing- I just think its place at #1 isn't as absolutely untouchable as many people think. It's still opinion-based, but.. I do believe Dark Matter's second phase is better.

@themustardman219 Год назад

⁠⁠@@KogasaTatara514dark matter phase 2 sounds amazing, much better than fight to the finish, partly by way of the better sound quality, but fight to the finish is uncontested in terms of the emotional quality, and the same can be said for the game itself, as far as most people say

@baddecisionthebold2379 Год назад

It's not quite 8 hours, there's a video that has the full ost and it's only 6 hours 20 minutes. Still a pretty big soundtrack though.

@TehFoamy Год назад

I love the tick-tock in Temporal Spire, signifying that time is quite literally running out. As we transition into the next section, we begin winding the clock in a desperate attempt to squeeze out another minute, another second, anything to delay the impending temporal collapse. Then as we get into the final section, we're having to wind the clock constantly just to keep up, each wind being just a little less effective than the last, as we creep inexorably closer to the end of time itself.

So if you weren't told already, from the themes sympathy to the end take place in special episodes. They were sort of side stories that followed characters other than the main leads, you unlocked them via progress in the main story and most happened during or before the main campaign. The exception being the last special episode, starting at For a New Life, which retells the final hours of the game in a different characters perspective.... kinda.

Do Your Best As Always becomes the theme you and your partner wake up to after every dungeon. I love that they did that because up until that point, you had always woken up, after every single dungeon, to Loudred yelling and then Wigglytuff's Guild playing, and it's such a neat change and a welcome reward for completing the main game, imo.

Thank you for listening to this wonderful games OST, this game as such a special place in my heart. Its my favorite game of all time and the music pieces just pull on my emotions. Glad you enjoyed them!

@hayleeh18 Год назад

Why did I have to discover your channel AFTER this stream? This OST is one of my favorite, if not actually my favorite, soundtracks in all of gaming. There’s so much variety but also plenty of underlying tones to connect the story and give a mysterious element to it all. The dungeon themes fit each location so well, the calmer songs around the main hubs are so upbeat and nostalgic. The boss fight themes are intense in the right places but tone down when it’s thematically appropriate. Add in the variety of instruments they pulled on to create the soundtrack and it never feels repetitive when it shouldn’t. The leitmotifs that tie everything together (there’s a really cool music analysis video on them, it talks about the three primary motifs in the soundtrack and why they appear where they do story wise) are also spectacular and evoke all the right vibes. It’s all just so good!

@hayleeh18 Год назад

Notes as I’m watching through (editing to add on as I go): I LOVE that you were immediately vibing with the Amp Plains theme. I think it’s one of the best dungeon themes in the game, and one I listen to on its own more often than almost any other in the soundtrack. Also 2:40:52 “a musical zipper” is exactly how I’d describe that sound lol 3:23:03 it takes that wild turn along with the story! Your chat told you some, but essentially you’re betrayed by someone you thought you could trust, dragged into the future that you thought you saved by helping the one who betrayed you and realizing you did not succeed in saving the world, and your betrayer trying his best to KILL you at every opportunity for trying to save the world. It’s an intense flip from the fairly mystical and happy story, and it’s a darn good one. All the expression changes throughout the Hidden Land, reacting to all the musical changes throughout it. It’s such a beautiful song Literally every guitar add in, but ESPECIALLY the one in Temporal Tower. The March and “hi neighbor!” during Do Your Best, as Always is exactly how I feel listening to that song 😂 Aegis Cave is a _nightmare_ of a dungeon but the theme is so groovy, I’m glad it got that instant vibe from you

43:40 Guildmaster Wigglytuff acts to subvert the expectation of an imposing, very serious leader that gets set up before you first meet him. He is absolutely competent to lead, is wicked strong, and very smart, and he's head of the guild, but he has a childlike quality in the way he acts and carries himself and speaks! So much so, that when ever since I was a kid, I can't think of him as having any voice but like that of a hyperactive child, a very high voice full of energy! 😆 So much fun!

4:53:45 This was the first song in a video game that ever made me cry... This song paired with the scene that accompanies it is just absolutely heartbreaking. This is the game and soundtrack that taught child me that video game music was just as good, and sometimes better, than non-video game music.

@emery-gaming Год назад

I first played this game in January and it made me cry 5 whole different times. It's crazy to me how the game that's made me cry the most is a game about a world where Pokemon run society and have to put some cogs inside a big tower to save the world with a reading complexity able to comprehended by a 3rd grader.

@cats9994 Год назад

I personally think its child-like nature at certain points is what keeps me crying every time I replay the game, such a beautiful and underrated game.

3:35:35 Dusk Forest is one of the only places, if not the only place, where there is any kind of plant life in the paralyzed future. That's because of the Passage of Time, the portal back to the past and back to your own time, that lies the heart of the forest. Time energy kind of radiates from the Passage and allows for the forest to be preserved. It's still very much not as it's supposed to be, since they are still somewhat frozen in time, but not completely; they are, in fact, able to grow. And in the game, it's not 100% grayscale like the rest of the world. It's a dark and scary forest in a grayscale desolate world that's trying to kill you, and you're still running for your life, but the forest is life nonetheless and has some semblance of something you know, and it houses the one way out, the thing that your very life depends on getting to. It's also the home of a powerful ally, the one who can open that Passage.

@heldon7951 Год назад

Lord, watching you listen to the Special Episode 5 soundtrack (For a New Life and onward) was such a treat. I believe that this section and of course the rest of the game, have some of the best video game music that will ever be composed, ESPECIALLY taking the context into account. There are motifs here taken from the rest of the game up until this point, hell even motifs from the previous PMD games. I'm always overwhelmed with emotion when someone gets to experience it for the first time, I may have shed multiple tears lol. Thank you for your insight and taking time to talk about my favorite game! I hope you can listen to PMD Rescue Team some day, as there is a lot of musical overlap there, also considering that Arata Iiyoshi composes for this game and that game. Thank you!

@londonripton2037 10 месяцев назад

1:04:31 I never noticed just how, as you said, nuanced and complex the chords in this song were until hearing you play them here. Where it's the rhythm or the chords themselves, it feels akin to pop music from the 60s

@slightlyuncomfortable Год назад

In regards to 1:42:00 and onward, The Gatekeepers being associated with walking as a march makes so much sense; your characters aren't walking, but they're acting as security guards. The method of guild security involves someone checking the footprints below a grate in the ground. A Pokémon stands on the grate, gets identified by species, and then gets let in. The connection between footprints and marching isn't something I expected to find out but its so so neat.

@jeamsis Год назад

I really just want to thank you so much for doing so many full soundtrack reactions, you really don’t see that from anybody else. You don’t have to do it but you do, and it’s very appreciated. If you’d like to hear more pokemon, pokemon black/white and black/white2 are regarded as having one of the best soundtracks in the series, I’m not sure which one would be better to listen to lmao. Definitely don’t have to do the full soundtracks, but it’d be a neat one to check out!

@MusicTheoryforGamers Год назад

@izu1525 Год назад

Another thing to mention: the music is heavily inspired by the games story. Temporal Tower and Vast Ice Mountain for example: At temporal tower, you hear the clock ticking, signaling you that time is ticking before the collapse of the tower and the destruction of time. you need to hurry. Vast Ice Mountain has the clock rewinding, showing that your actions here will erase this timeline entirely, everyone within it. its a suicide mission for the past, and everyone knows this. you want to revert time to before the collapse

@vince8901 Год назад

I think the idea behind the clock rewinding is more like, you have to wind up an old clock before it will start again. Time is slowly starting up again and that's signified by the rewinding of the clock

@aaronlopez5163 11 месяцев назад

And that suicide mission was damn worth it. The final boss was kinda lackluster though i just used dig twice and he gave up trying.

The e-piano in “Goodnight” is actually a Tine-E Piano, and it is one of my favorite instruments used in the OST. I adore the undertone in the vibes part near the end of the loop. It is one of the simplest tunes instrument wise and yet so much is going on at the same time.

You sir have made my whole month and maybe even my year with this, thank you!!

@Charziken Год назад

The one thing I enjoy about Primal Dialga's theme is that while yes, the theme doesn't sound threatening, Dialga still is. Though the theme conveys the fact that you're out of time. Temporal Tower is fast and energetic, a race against the clock. Temporal Spire has slowed down, but gained a much deeper/urgent feeling, time is running out. Dialga's Fight to the Finish is just saying "Time's up. You're done." What I love is that you can here the progression of your time running out. I stand by that this game is tied for best OST with Cave Story.

@natashakatgaming6987 Год назад

What finds me as an awesome thing to this game is the fact when I first played this game for the first time. Where I was 8 or 9 years old and I couldn’t read english that well at the time. But thanks to the music and the way the characters were acting in the end. Made my child self still understand that we were leaving this world and it still got me to cry. That’s how powerful this serie is. To a person who didn’t understand english that much at the time, still got to understand what was going on is so beautiful to me. ^^

@Sky-gd7cw 6 месяцев назад

this game may not have aged well graphically but boy does it still have a powerful musical soundtrack. I remember when it first came out around either 5th or 6th grade year and buying it with money I won from winning a photography contest and being so moved by the music playing in some of the randomly generated dungeons you got to explore. It’s great seeing how nowadays music teachers and music theory analysts are now finding this gem of a soundtrack and reacting to the leitmotifs and themes of this game’s music.

You need to do the OST of Pokémon Black and White and Black 2 and White 2, it's absolutely mind-blowing. It also has some interesting variety with the tempos of their themes, I remember reading in a comment of one track that it has a tempo of like 3/5 or 4/5 or something like that, I guess you'll understand what I'm trying to say.

@Mima-sama Год назад

4:49:26 This music represents everything our heroes and the person linked to "through the sea of time" have been fighting for until their last breath. And it gives us, as players, the determination to finish this ultra-difficult final boss. All boss final themes don't have to be like Sephiroth's theme or even this one, they have to be in line with what the story is about , how the characters feel and the general mood. That why a threatening theme would be completely off-topic in this case but I won't spoil you more than that. Also, this game is what pokemon can do the best in story terms (And the best game of the saga for me), I advise you to play or at least watch videos of this game.

@Damariobros 10 месяцев назад

Temporal Tower and Temporal Spire are part of the same final dungeon, in two different parts. In between the two parts there is an interlude, a rest area checkpoint with a save point and access to storage to replenish your items. When you reach that rest area, the tower experiences an extremely violent tremor, which the hero and partner acknowledge to mean that the tower's collapse is accelerating, and thus begins Temporal Spire. Time is running out, and you can quite literally hear the clock ticking away.

@thealolanturtwig5670 Год назад

I agree that this game made me cry at points, but in my defense, Don't Ever Forget combined with playing the story as a child is extremely good at its job. I'm not saying it's the best song on the soundtrack, but it just continues to take my breath away.

I think Toby Fox is a big Pokemon fan (he created some of the music for Sword and Shield and Scarlet and Violet, I know, duh) but many of his songs in UNDERTALE and DELTARUNE use some of the SAME soundfonts and basslines/similar sounding left hand arpeggios as in PMD songs. I think the helium balloon noise in 'Team Skull' is a reference to how ALL THREE of the group are poison types and their leader is LITERALLY a giant skunk who sprays people with gas!

The thing about Dialga's fight to the finish is your are dead right. Its process is fare more emotional. As the player you have watch 3 people sacrifice themselves to get you there. And once the fight is done, the adventure is over and you will die too. Melancholy and nostalgia is the main focus. It's an emotional fight that's genuinely painful and full of complex feelings. Not just a hype track. Ultimately your even trying to rescue everyone, including the person you're fighting. This game is sooo good- Music is a tool the games uses to tell its story and its masterful, stronger then any voice actor could ever do 😭

Kinda jumping around in the timestamps, and I know some have already mentioned in comments. But the Time theme is the main hook of the game. Dialga is the Pokemon of Time, who is being corrupted to mess around with the Timeline by Darkrai and Dusknoir. Everything from Time Gear to the Ending Theme are all played one after another where you find out Dusknoir's plot, then see another Pokemon, Grovyle, sacrifice himself "Through the sea of Time." Then you travel to Dialga's home, Temporal Tower, and fight Dialga to restore the timeline. THEN uh, sadness happens, because your char is not from the timeline and gets nuked. But then you come back! Just tell all the 12 year olds that as they're balling their eyes out :)
