Hope you guys like some of my picks! There are a ton of other great OSTs and songs I didn't get to really talk about in this vid but maybe one day I'll make a part 2 to expand on more amazing tunes out there!
Not trying to be so extra here but i just wanted to let you know: I highly enjoy your work, your writing, and your personality put in these videos. It's great to know that someone has nearly the same taste in game music as me.
i have to admit, the game is a pretty good hack and slash but i would still put Bayonetta over Revengence but fucking hell do i love Revegence music, " has to be this way" is my top favorite followed by "The onlything i know for real" and god dammit Sam needs his own game
Last month I was able to receive my first five figure check ever!!! I've been working for this provider using the internet for 2 years now and I never been happier... They are paying me $95 per hour, and the most desirable thing regarding it is the fact that I am not that tech-savvy, they just required standard idea of internet and general typing skill...Great thing about this job is that now I have more free time to spend with my family. I am able to dedicate quality time with my relatives and buddies and look after my babies and also going on holiday together with them very routinely. Don't let pass this chance and make sure to react quickly. Here’s what I do *bay25.com*
@Ruthless Attitude Entertainment You talking about yourself? It was loud he might have headphones in like me turned up high. Being startled isn't the same as feeling fear genius. That's why I consider horror movie or game jumpscares as cheap attempts at a reaction.
i was like you like first time: ehh not like last surprise second time: you know its not that bad third time : river in *dry land* with my head shiknig with the beat 😂
I wish I knew how to find more rap like Shadows of Mass Destruction. I'm too scared of the kinds rap and hip hop I already know I don't enjoy to go looking for the diamonds in the rough.
dear butter buns has a somewhat unrealistic view of herself, she doesn't seem to recognize what some others do, that she is adorable, to be more specific i mean to say that her attitude, how she presents herself in her videos is adorable... but i should really only speak for my self in this i suppose.
2:13 "Final Fantsy is insanely famous for its music." Maybe someone should have said that to SE so they'd have allowed Nintendo the rights to use more than two tracks in Smash Bros. *"I'm not salty, I swear" he says while looking at the list of songs that could have gotten into smash*
@@derpydashdjblazekin OMG, AC's OWA Is Probably The 2nd Best Song Of The Entire Séries & The Only Version Of The Song That Can Beat It Is GaMetal's, Look It Up, He Does Amazing Covers
Shoutout to Touhou, the longest running indie game series, which has music so iconic it may very well have the most remixes of any video game franchise ever. The amount of dedicated Touhou music arrangement groups is insane. There is a music collection torrent larger than a terabyte. Additionally, Touhou was a major inspiration for Toby Fox. You can see a lot of its influence in Undertale's music, world, and gameplay!
Favorite 5 touhou jams? "Flowering night", "Septette for the dead princess", and "nuclear fusion" are solid, but my favorite two are "faith is for the transient people" and "love-colored master spark".
I would be VERY surprised if touhou music was not the most remixed music in the world by a massive margin. Magus Night is my favorite touhou track. Especially a piano arrange of it which I liked a lot.
Hey Buns, video game music has to be on of my favorite things in life, so I gotta give you props for taking the time to make a full video about the music you enjoy. Thanks for the content, yo.
"LET PEOPLE LIKE THINGS, DAMMIT" This is a forever mood, especially in world full of people who like to shit on others for not having the same tastes as them. Also, the title of this video is actually me. Video game OSTs were one of the big reasons why I fell in love with VGs as a kid, and a huge reason why I still love them so much today. I'd love a part 2 of this!
Ok, then listen to a ten hour remix of a below average song or any song for that matter. I don't think is beneficial for the statement "LET PEOPLE LIKE THINGS, DAMMIT" to be used as an applicable philosophy for anything. Moral of this comment = people like and dislike what you want.
It is applicable if you’re the kind of person who needlessly interjects your opinion where it isn’t wanted. The idea of letting people like things is more intended for those who feel the need to tell others that they’re wrong for liking or disliking something, of which there are a ton of. The moral of my comment? Live and let live. Arguments about movies/games/books etc. just aren’t worth insulting people over just because their subjective opinion is different. People like different things for different reasons. What a concept.
It's kinda hypocritical from the same RU-vidr that constantly reminded people how she doesn't like nor care about popular games like God of war, Red dead 2 and Nier automata
I was crying cuzz ff xiii-2 had the one of the stupedest storys ever and yet its one of my favorite games. All tanks to the ost. Im happy thet im not alone in this.
Honestly FF13-2 is one of the more underrated games in the series. I loved it the first time I played it. I remember comparing it to Chrono Trigger a lot because of all the time travel. Going back to replay it a couple of years ago did reveal a lot of the flaws, though. Still love Caius as a villain, that rad metal Chocobo theme, and Mass Effect. It's also the only game in the trilogy I've actually beaten.
You just can't pull that stuff out of your ASSets folder... This subtle humor is the quality content I'm here for and I love you so much for it... #noticemeBuns
DOOM the entire soundtrack, Nier: Automata, FFXV, Dark souls 1, Bloodborne, Dark souls 3, Legend of Zelda Ocarina, FFVII: Dirge of Cerberus, Hollow Knight. Favorite gaming music ever
That moment you realize: Most of the time people ask me "what the heck are you listening to?" I have to respond with "its from a video game, don't ask me to explain, because then we'll be here for an hour." *Clicks that like button, goes to listen to more of Doom 2016 and Bloodborne OST* Edit: the Doom sound track does the same thing that you talk about in MGR. Every time you perform a significant action in combat, the music changes.
Dear SuperButterBuns, After watching a video from ValkyrieAurora, your videos popped up. Viewing a video from you was the best decision I ever made. My wife and I are cracking up on every video that you make. I wanted to say this, because we can't stop watching. Keep up the good job and I hope you can do what you want for as long as possible. Happy New Year!!!!
Well, if I’m able to state the gaming music that always makes me happy/excited. It’s just Kirby soundtracks Honestly Kirby games probably have my favorite soundtracks, that vary tons thanks to the different situations that pink fluffy fuck gets into. Especially the boss themes Could literally write an essay about the boss themes
And with Star Allies clocking with more than 200 tracks in it's OST with incredible remixes of theme such as Rainbow Resort, Boss theme (Parralel version), Astral Birth (Final version), Amazing Mirror final boss phase 1, Squeak Squad ... etc, It's no matter why we'll always come back to hear the music from such a great series !
I played only Kirby Mass Attack on the DS but every time I hear a Kirby soundtrack on Smash I feel like there is an angry Dedede behind me whispering "Play more Kirby" into my hears. By far my favorite OST in the "didn't even played the games" category.
I definitely agree you've got happy soundtracks like green greens and just 1st level music that seem to portray Kirby as a character, the loveable pink fluff ball, but you've also got stuff like crowned and fatal blooms in the moonlight for the more serious, god-killing moments that Kirby is also known for
I cheered when you brought up Persona OSTs XD Persona 3 and later 5 convinced me that video game music is legit music and nobody can change my mind, YOU HEaR ME?!
Some of my fav OSTs: Persona 3 & 5 Fire Emblem Awakening and Fates Xenoblade Chronicles Nier Automata The Witcher 3 Undertale I have a thing for RPG music so yeah...
Okay... The World Ends With You has one of the greatest soundtracks of all time and every additional arrange or remixed soundtrack they've added over the years has only made it better. Mother 3's soundtrack is a masterpiece. They put over 250 tracks on a GBA cartridge and almost all of them are excellent. Breath of the Wild has one of the most underrated soundtracks in the Series but the Entire Zelda Franchise has some god tier composition The Afforementioned Nier and Nier Automata is next level at capturing and conveying the mood of the series The Entire Entire Castlevania Franchise is filled to the brim with awesome music from the recognizeable and iconic tracks to even the more obscure bops. Special Mentions goes to Order of Ecclesia for having the most consistent tracklist of heavy hitters in the series (at least for me). Seriously Michiru Yamane is easily my favourite female composer, she only makes gold. Advanced War has and always will have some of the most catchy and memorable character themes in the industry and you can fight me on that. Even the heavily underrated Days of Ruin has nothing but excellent themes from top to bottom. Special mention to Brenner's theme for going the hardest 24/7. Final Fantasy got a lot of Love but Shoutouts to Tactics and Tactics advances for the intense mood setting tracks and absolutely lovely compositions respectively. Metroid. METROID. Nothing nails that atmosphere and catchiness quite like this series. Between totally bangers and songs that just wisk you away to an unknown and almost relaxing vibe, Metroid is definitely on the top of the stack. Every Ace Attorney Soundtrack slaps and amplifies each wacky or intense scenario. Ace Attorney wouldn't be what it is without it's soundtrack. Do I need to mention persona? Look there is no bad persona soundtrack, in fact you'd be hard pressed to find a bad SMT soundtrack. Although i feel incline to bring attention to the Devil Survivor series both games have the kind of soundtrack that sets the mood of the entire game although DeSu 2 definitely takes the cake out of the two. *Wheeeeeeeeze* Alright that's all i can muster for now.
I will always love the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon soundtrack. It always have that adventurous feeling to the dungeons and even the music that plays at certain events in the game makes the stakes that much greater. Not to mention the goodbye songs and the final boss music is *damn good* I highly recommend playing the games. It's really good.
Okami - Shout outs in particular to Reset -Thank You-, The Sun Rises, and Reset. Hits you right in the feels at the right moment during this beautiful game even when the land is a giant cursed zone. Also if you need music while you're sitting and watching a bird/dog/cat/tiger/etc. eat, this game has got your zen. Also, little played games, Trauma Center and Trauma Team. If you gotta play medical simulators with some music in the background, but goodness. Sigh of Relief, GUILT, Savato, Vulnerability, Dr. Cunningham's themes whenever you play Diagnosis, Dr. Kimishima's themes while solving ~murders~, anything related to name I cannot mention because I don't wanna spoil, but uuugh. Love it.
The Super Mario Galaxy 1 & 2 OSTs are by far my favorite pieces of video game music ever written. Mario music usually is viewed as cutsie and bubbly, and whatnot. But the Galaxy soundtracks... oh my lord does the orchestra give us some miraculous songs. Gusty Garden, Melty Monster, Space Junk Road, *both* Credits Themes, etc. If you have never really listened to Nintendo music, trust me when I say you *must* listen to the Galaxy soundtracks; they're sublime.
@@Joker-nh6dd I'd say time attack theme from galaxy 2 but everyone seems to love Gusty Garden galaxy. Admittedly it is really good. Just not my favorite
Castlevania and Xenoblade have god tier OSTs if you haven't already given them a listen. Also a personal favorite of mine is Tokyo Mirage Sessions. That entire ost is just so damn energetic its infectious. Edit: I completely neglected to mention Sonic. I have to commit seppuku
Dude did you ever just stick around the title screen on xenoblade and just listen to the theme watching the sun set past the Monado? I did almost every time lol. I love that game so much
@@mr.redacted767 dang it. You gave me another reason to commit seppuku. Although I own all the xenoblade games, the ones I played the most (and by extension know their soundtracks more) are x and 2
@@connorc1635 Castlevania is great. Especially Ecclesia with "An empty tome" and all the boss themes. I can listen to them for hours on end, without getting bored. Or the newer FE Games. Especially Fates and Shadows of Valentia. Lost in thoughts all alone is so damn good, that I have every version of it I could find on my MP3. And yes, I know Fates had a shitty story and bad characters, but the music, oh god the music ist just great. The best battle themes are "You of the dark", and "You, of the light", or whatever they're called in english. And I'm also really recommending the Tales of- Soundtrack. I know Symphonia 2 was kinda bad. But the music is still beautiful. Or Zestiria with it's shitty camera, which gave us tracks like, "The melody of water is the guide in spiritual mist", or "Zaveid the exile". Or the legendia soundtrack, which i haven't heard yet, but all the guys who know their stuff say it's great. So it must be great. And don't forget Golden Sun. You can say what you want about this game, but the music is beautiful. And it's a GBA Game! Which means, that if these games can have super awesome tracks on the GBA, then the next gen. consoles have no reason to produce games with bad music, if Nintendo can pull of a great soundtrack on something that old.
Dude Xenoblade 1 has some fucking killer tunes. An Obstacle in Our Path, Mechanical Rhythm, the opening theme, the dope medley that was made for Smash, Gaur Plains (day); just so many good songs in that game!
The soundtrack to Hollow Knight made the game such a magical fuckin experience for me. It made it feel like such an adventure and brought so much life to the desolate world. It’s fuckin awesome.
Double B in the Morning I personally fell in love with the game after entering the Greenpath for the first time. The lush green bushes starkly contrasted the first area of the game, and the beautiful song that starts to play made me realise what an amazing game it was.
@@brinsk7151 as you move from the crossroads to the greenpath for the first time the background transitions from muted blues to vibrant greens as the strings fade in evoked this sense of awe and a burning desire to see everything this game had to offer
2:56 - 4:58 MY DUDE, YOU ARE NOT ALONE, FFXIII-2's OST IS MY FAVORITE TOO AND THAT PART ABOUT PLAINS OF ETERNITY IS JUST SO TRUE-- ITS SUCH A BOP AND I LITERALLY STAYED IN THAT AREA FOR HOURS BECAUSE OF IT- also i love how you used paradigm shift in the background, its my favorite normal battle theme along with run/dash!!
It was such a great game. The OST keeps making me want to go back and the fun atmosphere and fluid gameplay just makes me want to fully replay the game everytime I return to it. I've probably 100%'ed it 10 times already.
Bloodborne's ost has to be my favorite video game ost. Those violins and latin vocals chanting about death and blood just tickle me in places I didn't even know existed. Plus I'm just a sucker when it comes to things like gothic victorian horror and lovecraftian horror.
@@Koyuki_Yukihime Oh not quite, Yasunori Nishiki has never composed for Final Fantasy, and Octopath was actually the first really big game he composed for. I do say, his compositions are truly amazing, and I feel he completely succeeded in his goal of recapturing the essence of old JRPGs while adding new life to it. I really look forward to seeing what he composes for next.
Same. I still don't know who UN Owen is and who "her" was supposed to be but I'll be damned if I don't keep going back to that song multiple times per month.
I got into the games back in 2012 all BECAUSE of the soundtracks. Deaf to all but the Song convinced me I had to actually play whatever game it was associated with. No regrets. I love the games.
I rarely play video games hell I don't even own most of the games you do beginners guides on. But yet your style and structure to your videos is so well done I watch them anyway. Keep up the good work !
I’ve started watching an anime called Kill la Kill. There are points that I’m not as hyped up as I should be until the music starts playing. Then I’m ready for a good fight.
Good video game osts? Here's a few that come to mind: Rayman series Beyond Good and Evil Destruction Derby 2 Klonoa Castlevania series Megaman series Lost Odyssey Bravely Default SMT franchise Ghost Trick Little Big Planet Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game Everything Jake Kaufman and Danny Baranowsky make Tim Follin's music (Just go check up the ost of Silver Surfer for NES. It'll blow your mind) Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory (Amon Tobin makes some good idm) Sonic series (Mania especially) Silent Hill series Jet Set Radio series Ridge Racer Type 4 Gurumin Ar Tonelico, Ar No Surge Gran Turismo Furi Auto Modellista Marvel vs Capcom 2 Octopath Traveler (There's a song on this ost that sounds strikingly similar to Decretum from Madoka) Just to name a few.
Yeah, the soundtracks of the Nier games are definitely some of my favs. Those tracks both stand out on their own and add so much to the scenarios they are a part in. Also, one soundtrack I've really liked that wasn't featured here is the soundtrack for Night in The Woods. That game has some music in it that sounds so homely and calm.
I didn't believe you about the chocobo song for ffXIII-2 because I never played that game So I looked it up and now I can't stop laughing, I can't believe this is a real song about riding fluffy chickens I love it
Crazy Chocobo is also sung by and probably lyrically written by Shootie HG of DMC3 and 4 fame (and Fly Routine fame, which was in Dead Rising 1's Grocery Store fight) who also wrote all of the lyrics of DMC songs he sings. People don't seem to know that it's an intentional joke song produced by THE Final Fantasy composer (until Soken came along) and a top-tier but slightly obscure metal singer, and so they got mad about it by overthinking it (or somehow not liking hammed up metal).
I love the ost for the Xenoblade series (Xenogears included) and it might be "mainstream" but the STH franchise with it's ost has usually been sublime throughout many games (hyper potions and Crush40 really do know what they doing). Castlevania is still in a league of it's own tho imo!.
Fun fact about me: my personal favorite track in the entire Sonic the Hedgehog series is a remix of the final boss theme of Sonic 3, used for a boss that can be defeated in 40 seconds that's also in the inferior version of Sonic Generations. Talk about a waste of effort :/
Xenoblade was the first game to make me appreciate video game music because of how well composed and used it was for the game. Every time Engage the Enemy plays, it's pure perfection.
Whenever I think of gorgeous game music, my mind turns to the night theme for Satorl marsh in xenoblade. It’s just dripping with gorgeous from the piano to the Latin choir.
I've always loved the Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 soundtracks. The electronic and orchestra is very diverse and range from silly and whimsical to surprisingly sad and lonely at times. There's not much story but they capture the mood and environments perfectly.
Ten years ago, I never would have thought a video like this would exist. Growing up, I was picked on a lot for the fact that I enjoy video game music so much and that even to this day, it's most of what I listen to. It wasn't until a couple years ago that I finally met someone incredible who shared my passion for video game music, especially music from the Persona series, but seeing now that people like you are expressing their love and passion for these works of art is an absolute breath of fresh air, if you ask me. I've always loved video game music. Even as a little kid, I'd pause games on my GameBoy to listen to songs from certain areas, and now I compose my own OSTs from years of obsession with video game music. Seeing more and more people openly expressing their love for these masterpieces makes me happy. Everyone deserves to have something to be passionate about. Passion is what makes life worth living, as long as that passion doesn't involve hurting others or putting other people's opinions down. (Like you said, music is subjective. Everyone's allowed to like whatever they like.) All this is to say thank you. This video hits home for me in such a positive way, and I really appreciate it.
Not gonna lie -- "JSRF" were the first four letters I was going to drop here. My personal dream is to have a moment so head-smashingly epic that it will have to be set to "Concept of Love". _Surviving_ said moment is optional, but would be nice.
Hey Tyler, this is unrelated to music, but I want to thank you for inspiring me to be a more authentic version of myself, through your videos and personality. Happy Holidays, and keep doing what makes you happy.
man...does Warframe even count as free to play? From all that I have heard about Warframe, it's as representative of free to play games in general as a nuclear bomb is representative of 4th of July fireworks.
@@charlieterry8506 What do you mean? It has one of the fairest free to play models on the market i would say. Everything is available to you for free except cosmetics and you only need premium currency to speed things up really.
I have been stuck on Drakengard 3's OST since I heard it. It's not that classic Neir Goodness, but it's it's own beast that deserves it's own recognition. Especially the DLC tracks and 2nd Intoner themes like Galgaliel and Zophiel. Seriously, listen to The 13th Chapter Chaotic Song, or watch Nemesis008 do the Zero vs One, Branch C boss battle. The second half of that battle would be NOWHERE NEAR as impactful and heartbreaking if not for that song.
I just found out your channel, I'm barely halfway through the video, and you have me laughing out loud which is not something that happens often. Your commentary is amazing and I'm so happy to see more people share appreciation for video game OSTs (NieR will forever be the death of me) so I'll be sure to check out more of your videos!
The Golden Sun franchise has my favorite OST, and it will stay that way for a very long time. Wait, the KH games have more than just original songs? KINGDOM HEARTS HAS MY FAVORITE OST NOW!!!
"Eyes on Me" from FF8 really got stuck in my head somehow after finishing tha fantastic game. Up to this day that song is the only one I can instantly remember for songs from that game.
The World Ends With You Bayonetta Super Smash Bros Ultimate (is this cheating?) Ace Attorney 3, 5, and 6 The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask and Wind Waker Danganronpa (as in the entire franchise) A Hat in Time Doki Doki Literature Club Any Kirby game Mega Man X Pokémon Super Mario Odyssey Any Sonic game not called Rise of Lyric Fire Emblem Fates Earthbound Chrono Trigger Castlevania Skullgirls Tetris Effect Metroid Prime Donkey Kong Country Stardew Valley Dragonball FighterZ All fave OSTs of mine, look them up if you want more bops (sorry if my Nintendo fanboy crept into that list it kinda just happens)
2:48 Gotta give Buns some credit on this one I did the math and I guessed FF13-2 Love when my fav youtubers make me do math 14:25 If I don't see this face return I'm gonna cry
A good mention is that a ton of fighting have astonishingly great soundtracks Blazblue and guilty gear have some super hype songs (Fav being crystal forest and Marionette from each respectively) Skullgirls, darksiders, marvel vs capcom (the older ones at least), street fighter etc etc
Considering that you mentioned Bayonetta, Metal Gear Rising, and Bayonetta in one video, I kinda want to see a Kingdom Hearts game developed by Platinum games. “This is it!” RULES OF NATURE
For me, I love Pokémon Sword and Shields Gym Leader theme. Like holy shit it’s amazing. It’s so fast-pass and really makes you feel like your putting on a show that thousands of people that are watching. It’s also very different from any other Pokémon OST ever, like including the anime and movies and I can really appreciate that. It’s just really good haha
Fantastic video as always Buns! I'm glad you mentioned how MGR:R ost changes during boss battles as it was one of my fav parts of that game. Scrolling through the comments and I'm a little disappointed. Am I the only one who loves ACE ATTORNEY ost?!
Final Fantasy 6 on SNES opera. It didn't have vocals, exactly, but you could almost hear the words as they came on screen. It was brilliantly localized, and the audio, especially for the SNES, was fantastic.
Killer Instinct 2013 has a very adaptive score that changes up depending on how the matches go, even having segments that only play when both players go idle for a time. Mick Gordon (& Celldweller and Atlas Plug) are geniuses.
@@saladsn8k548 Mick Gordon is just awesome so it's no surprise DOOM 2016's soundtrack ripped and tore into our hearts, plus Celldweller and Atlas Plug are no slouches.
Personally, I'm a massive fan of the Dynasty Warriors series and the Warriors franchise as a whole. The action drew me in as a kid, the history keeps me around now, but ultimately now it's that literally-melt-your-face-with-heavy-rock-and-metal-mixed-with-nice-ancient-Chinese-or-Japanese-depending-on-the-game-sounds OST that keeps me coming back to each game. One track in particular that stands out as my absolute favorite piece that Koei has created is one called Thousand Suns in DW7. It plays on the Wu-Shu alliance side right after the major fire attack that wipes out practically the entire Wei fleet. It's got some nice drums and the flute in the background is a nice touch that it's still a game in China, but the way the track transitions from a kick-ass electric guitar line that keeps you both rocking out and humming along to wonderful trumpets that soothe your soul and then right back to guitar is breathtaking. The entire Warriors franchise has great music that fits the battleground perfectly. Some notable tracks besides Thousand Suns as I talked about are Arena from DW3 (the most iconic song of the entire franchise, you hear the opening 4 seconds and instantly recognize it if you know it), Anegawa from Samurai Warriors 1, Cry and Slash from Dynasty Warriors 9, Samurai Scanners from Warriors Orochi 1, The Mountain from Dynasty Warriors 8, and the very climactic epic finale The Epic Remains Forever from Dynasty Warriors 9 that HAS ITS OWN ORCHESTRA FOR THE ONE TRACK ALONE. Seriously give the series a listen and you won't be disappointed.
Honestly, that moment in 7 where Huang Gai charges the Wei fleet, setting it ablaze while Thousand Suns kicks in is one of my all-time favorite Warriors moments.
My music playlist exists also out of almost just OSTs, tho I do have a variety between anime and games Recently I've been listening to the Oneshot soundtrack. A cool indie-game that I've played lately (and still gotta finish) and the OST really adds to it!
