Make some of the greatest video game music known to man, 8 hours of it
sounds all too same-ish, it will lose against DS2's phenomenal OST.
generic epic chant slop
No.
This is not the NieR Automata thread
interviews said he and the singer basically lived together every day for a year just vibe composing the OST
They fucked, right?
DS2's phenomenal OST.
DS1 only had BB's theme
man you vile frenchies really wanna sell this faggy ass game dont you
what kind of fucking ugly freak plays a game like this
when the kino beat drops
You will never a qt French soprano
She has a hyphenated last name
walled
why do you type like a redditor
Good taste
So definitely
there is battle music yeah, but most of the music is not that
Nigger keiichi okabe is literally the best vidya composer out there
This is not a big deal in Europe
you don't even know who composed the tracks you liked
Maybe for you germanics in the faggy north, a medBVLL wouldn't have let the card unredeemed
You heard me. DS1's soundtrack was already a masterpiece and according to journos who played DS2 for 30 hours, the sequel will have an even better OST. So your low budget indie shit le baguette drama snoozefest won't have a chance against this juggernaut of a game.
I dont get the massive praise for the soundtrack, yeah its fine but it's a lot of piano and choir. I think its well placed in the game and that it has an impact on what emotion the scene is trying to convey but on its own it's just good not great
Why does nobody ever mention the best track?
Tintin in Tibet
Absolutely god tier taste OR traumatized as a child and coping with Stockholm syndrome. One or the other.
Implying Death Stranding isn't the king of snoozefests
Did you want more french horns in it maybe?
What are playlists
doesn't release For Those Who Come After for no reason
The only thing holding me back from proclaiming E33's soundtrack god tier are these baffling omissions from the official release
for an ADHD tiktok brained faggot zoomer troon who need explosions and gunshots every few minutes like you maybe yeah
Never seen a game developer team more tryharding their appeal to other gamers with their: OH LOOK, THESE ARE OUR FAVORITE GAMES OF EACH AND EVERY TEAM MEMBER!
Its on the level of virtue signaling, I've only seen mission statements from the lead development sometimes and some other companies just flat out saying we were inspired by games such as X/Y/Z to make this game, hope you enjoy it. No grandstanding on one's personal laundry list of games as if they were a personal CV. I think its pretty funny.
extremely overrated and overhyped shit, just like the game and the fact that zoomer whores like this bitch think it's good should tell you everything how bad it really is
Nice dynamics bro
Definitely not into hi-fi music these lot.
Anon Babble will get mad at anything
Doesn't matter. This is the most Kino track of gaming.
youtu.be
No, he said Alice would come a few days each month to record with him in his studio.
Its pretty woke, only time you need to wear your gaming history like your CV was when someone asked you those Q&As, nobody really cares beyond what games inspired the game you worked on now.
gamer makes game for gamers
gets mad they share their taste
it’s for people that want to reference a creators influences
woke
not what that word means
thank god, i'd be so mad if a 25 year old got this lucky
No! Not the WOKENESS! Aaaahhhh I'm going insane
2016 ruined this place
should tell you everything how bad
good morning sirs do not redeem the expedition 33 benchod barstards
We are talking about a FRENCH developer here. They are eternal faggots ever after WWII.
Post your current installed games on Steam.
you are monumentally retarded
double dash
good morning sirs do not redeem the expedition 33 benchod barstards
consider killing yourself
I'm 38 and it's the best gaming OST I've heard by far. Honestly, too high effort for a video game, most gamers are uncultured tards and won't appreciate the soprano singing and all the variety of instruments and styles used, it's wasted on them.

Go on waybackmachine, they had those on their website since 2019 when they were seven people working on their game and their facebook posts were getting 10 likes
She didn't specify which though, there were multiple versions on a variety of platforms
en.wikipedia.org
I tried this game after everyone relentlessly shilled and it doesn't even have voice acting. wtf? I thought it ripped off JRPGs which have had voice acting for decades. Is this some kind of budget title?
Buy the game retard, your repack cut the voices lmao
Is this the new meme?
and it doesn't even have voice acting
Did you forget to put the audio on?
Most JRPGs have even less voiced dialogue than this
Is that a thing?
this man is so shy in interviews, kinda fun to watch, you know he's the emotional type
The best tracks were done by Keigo Hoashi.
think it's good should tell you everything how bad it really is
Loved it when I heard his voice in that spoken word track
the music is profoundly mediocre, sometimes even annoying with overtly shrill vocals and i don't understand the praise
yeah should've been generic buttrock like in Doom
bloody bastard...
39 here. Same, wouldn't necessarily say the best but easily up there and will be remembered. For me it stands out more than Nier and that says something. It's likely just the younger audience it's lost on, especially when considering not growing up with turn based RPG's etc.
stay mad
Automata's OST has a composer breakdown, as does Drakengard 3.
38 here, Final Fantasy VII is in a league of its own, imo, but COE33 is definitely among the GOATs
what was the plan?
For a stand-alone, non-live service game (aka disqualifying FFXIV's 10+ years of music accumulation and Limbus Company) I actually do think it has the best OST in gaming, with an honorable mention to Library of Ruina.
"If you're 3X and have a computer you must play this game" energy
I agree with all you said and I'm 37
plan?
So which track are they playing live at the Game Awards?
this is why this board should have been deleted when the sharty hacked Anon Babble btw
To The Wilder from Woodkid
Une vie à t'aimer, Une vie à peindre, Une vie à rêver
All 33 minutes of it.
I know Une Vie a Taimer is the big track standing out to people, but I think they should play something like the act 2 overworld theme or a medley of the character themes
I know Une Vie a Taimer is the big track standing out to people
We Lost is better tbqhdesusenpai
My fav track is verso and I'm waiting for a guitar transcription. Already learnt Lumiere and Alicia. Not hard if you can play "finger style" or classical.
songsterr.com
for medley? one of the Una vies
for the orchestra yea it's probably Lumiere and such, like the other anon said
fucking sick ass guitar solo out of nowhere in the middle of the song
in merchant fights where you usually defeat them in 1 minute or less
what the FUCK did he mean by this
Devs in the industry revealing what their favorite games are should be a common occurrence btw. You've got cinema directors constantly cooming over old movies but rarely do you see game devs showing their love for the medium.
This game worth a pirate?
You are genuinly mentally ill.
I can't even pity you because you aren't a human being.
He was (is?) a guitar teacher before working on the game so he was probably just having fun cutting loose

you'd think so but not really
So gibberish with some french thrown in.
DrakenNier chaos language successor.
Didn't expect to see Goblu so high up in the list but it pleases me
What a perfect wife
What language is this? That's not French, it sounds Indian
No particular language, I guess, just made up words that sound good
Goblu is so great that when I first heard it I just stopped fighting the enemies so I could hear more of it. It's too bad that the soundtrack version is missing the best bit from the song though

Why does the mask cover the less scarred side of her face?

Aline purposefully drew her wrong, as a joke.

The bitch didn't even color her.
She's such pure misery porn of a character, it's great but also depressing.
first fight theme in the game (Gustave tutorial fighting Maelle on the rooftops) is called Our Drafts Unite
last fight theme in the game (Alicia vs Verso boss fight) is called Our Drafts Collide
That's not Verso
youtube.com
Best track in the game.
Ah, si haut
Encore plus haut
Renoir really loved Alicia and wished for her reach greater heights.
She had a harder life than verso
Suffers way more than Painted Verso, and unlike him, she didn't double cross or kill anyone.
It just works
How many years did Aline and Renoir spent trapped in that fucking Monolith
Instead of getting the picto implant tattoos that let you do magic on her arms, she put them on her arms and her legs
So she can now hover and fly kick fireballs with her soles
Because the lead artist is based

Artorias looking motherfucker
This reminds me of the doom 2016 music guy.
Good production but shit music.
Meanwhile
Random Metal slug music
Yeah. Does every major story boss theme have to reuse the main theme in some way? You'd think that Toby Fox composed the soundtrack.
Shit strands 2
lol shit strands 1 was the most pathetic walking simulator, it had ugly characters, lame animations, shit gameplay and shit music.
Bro he recorded most of it in his bedroom, you don't know what's good production.
his title is so unapologetically soulsbornekiroring lmao
shame the title doesn't appear during the fight
flying waters tracks
I'm not saying it's the best music ever, but it activates the right almonds. Shit was so cash.
Does anyone else hear the Severance theme in the open world theme?
Good production
Dude recorded his shit a tiny room in his appartment
i particularly love the sonar-esque motif at the start, on the battle theme
you can produce a masterpiece in your bedroom now. a decent interface and guitar amp sim software is all you need. what year are you living in grandpa?
It's good production wtf are you talking about? Are you retarded? Everyone knows the dude made in his bedroom. That's not some esoteric tid bit. lol
Lumiere obviously
Any frogs here? What the fuck is this about? What the fuck was that whole area about?
My guess it's some papa vs mama shit again.
youtube.com
There's one thing that has been bugging me since the release of the song months ago
youtube.com
Is it just me or the vocals are actually a bit too loud? Feels like it drowned out the instruments, particularly the drums.
Idk if it's like that too ingame because i steamrolled the boss too fast to notice due to being overleveled
The side quests are all pointless really as everyone dies in the end anyways
He himself said it wasn't good production, stop being retards.
Most artists are unhappy with their work when they finish it.
all they see are the flaws.
the DOOM ost has tight mixing and achieves hammer and nails the metal/DJent-ish sound it was going for.
Probably because that's what all people said about his music.
Again produce a good sound but did nothing with it. He knows it.
My love. These foes are beneath you.
You, who have fought heaven and earth… and subdued giants…

nigger doesn’t understand what leitmotif is
I’m convinced that you browns are incapable of thinking abstractly
And there is such a thing as overusing a leitmotif to the point of absurdity.
If the dude didn't want to take advantage of his 15 minutes of fame that's his fault.
He should of put effort into his music.
I guess he didn't care because he knew the game was mediocre shit so he didn't put effort into his music.
My opinion is that you should put effort into your art like Toby Fox. People will still appreciate your effort these days even if it doesn't seem that way.
Whale Bay off the Rayman 2 OST
like Toby Fox
You mean the guy who's only released two chapters of his game after nearly 7 years?

The main theme is actually just Pokemon route 1 slowed down
You keep posting this.
You keep getting answers that the notes and progression are different.
You keep posting this.
Sad thing is, there are maybe dozens of thousands of talented composers out there on Soundcloud/Bandcamp/YouTube capable of writing kickass music, but they never get their lucky break like Lorien did, or simply aren't interested in having music careers and just do it for the fun.
I wish more developers took risks like Sandfall when it comes to composers instead of sticking to the more established names.
Please kill yourself you cynical fuck
they never get their lucky break like Lorien did
lucky
Yeah sure, except the guy is a fucking genius and he deserved it, unlike those "dozens of thousands" of talentless nonames.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAH I'M GETTING FILTERED BY THE PARRY SYSTEM
Took me like 4 tries to beat Maelle at the festival
If the story of how Guillaume met him is accurate then it's genuine divine intervention, in some random forum that he wasn't using regularly but happened to be on at that moment
Every time devs try to appeal to their players and project a sense of "we're not like those soulless AAA devs", it just makes me cringe. It's like a politician trying to appeal to their Christian voters by going to church and making a big deal about it.
undertale was amazing.
As for Delta rune, idk the dude can hire a team if he wanted to. He wants to make it his way. Let him
If you think about it, nobody is complaining anymore about elder scrolls 6 taking too long. You could say the same for a lot of big franchises.
After undertale Toby Fox could of just taken his money and rode into the sunset. Everyone would of been fine with it.
unlike those "dozens of thousands" of talentless nonames
Testard had been a literal nobody on Soundcloud for fucking years before Guillaume picked him up. It's quite literally luck.
youtube.com
the songs are so dynamic ingame. i hope theres some way for an extended ost release that includes this.
neoclassical slop

What's Alex Moukala doing these days? He was big on Youtube one day and I stopped hearing about him
a uniquely composed OST will lose to popslop collabs
KEK, do Kojimatards really?
What's Alex Moukala doing these days?
Writing generic orchestral slop like he was doing several years ago.
That being said, he does some freelance work for AAA studios occasionally.
what the fuck else would you call it anon
It doesn't follow the industry standards of hiring the people who fucked up a previous project. Like the devs of Ghost of Yotei hiring DA:Veilguard's tranny.
DS2 will have like one or two good orignal tracks and the rest of the ost will be from whatever band Kojima is fellating at the moment. He has good taste in music though so the tracks will at least be good.
Except the CEO is a geniune nerd who loves to play.
for me, its all the gestral music. they are such a fun npc fodder race.
youtube.com
youtube.com
That's one of the worst tracks in DS1, along with Fragile's theme.
Kojima would have passed on Lorien Testard because he's not famous
Kojimbo wastes his Sony millions on getting Hollywood celebs on Valium and make them sleepwalk on a mocap set. He can't work without tardwranglers.

Some songs were not good
composes kino score for Killer Instinct
best known for generic buttmetal he made for Doom
It do be like that sometimes
It certainly resembles Sakimoto's style
hopefully you enjoyed them because now that the game has become popular it'll be impossible to discuss it without the usual contrarian shitposters derailed every topic with stupid bullshit
huge bitch level
Top 10 track for me, borderline Top 5
Where can I find some cool cello like this
Not worshipping the game and thinking it's flawless isn't being a contrarian, that's just having a common sense.
Jeremy Soule's music often uses solo cello passages
ok nintendlet
But I hate Nintendo
Case in point kek
I still don't get the acclaim for the later doom OSTs
I thought the games were alright enough but they were more enjoyable replaced with classic thrash like Kill Em All or something
the djent was not my thing...
it will also have an originally composed soundtrack just like the first game did you stupid fuck
i think the game has flaws for sure but the ost + sound design was the best part of the game.
tintin au tibet
lmao. i think all french millennials played it
I'm just criticizing bro
I thought the soundtrack was good while playing but I listened to it all yesterday and 80% of the tracks sound the same
orchestra slop was bad before this game and its still bad
its more dynamic ingame. theres also parts of the songs missing in the ost that you can hear ingame. in other words, the standalone ost doesnt reflect the music well.
The director/CEO has DMC5 no-hit runs on his YouTube channel from like five years ago
Both E33 and Nier have forgettable tier music. Nier has 0 good tracks. E33 has like 3 or 4 very samey tracks and the one jazzy sax driven gestral song. I wouldn't call either ost bad but neither are amazing.
Nier is overhyped: the game. E33 delivers in a lot of ways but the insistence that the music is somehow peak is bizarre.
It's become so easy to identify jaded retards / shitposters who don't play games with this game
Anon, why respond to something like that? Can't you smell the bullshit?
I think if you don't think this is one of the best OST's in video game history you have bad taste.
NOOOOO DON'T REPLY TO THE CRITICISM ITS ALL BULLSHIT, VE MUST MAINTAIN ZE ECHO CHAMBER!!!!

Nah, you are right. Someone on the team curated and wrote that list for each person. It has the stink of advertising written all over it. It seemed 33% genuine and 67% cultivated.

Asking for complete randoms and somehow having it all come together into a great game is the insane part
naw, ive gone through the 8 hour ost a few times already. there were a few weak ones that dont really stand out but i dont really fault it. its nearly 8 hours of standout songs. i do hope he releases an even longer version of the ost that includes the missing portions of the music.

Tbh the fact they hired a capable orchestra and world-class singer to boot indeed "disqualifies" them from being a true indie studio, actual indies have to cope by using MIDI because good musicians can be unreasonably expensive
I finally started playing this last night and it feels like the first time I've been actually excited playing a single player game in 20 years. Who thought that in the year of our lord 2025 the frogs would finally make kino.
fight merchant
Someone on the team curated and wrote that list for each person.
Those lists have been there since 2019, it must have been some great foresight if it was a marketing move
i should add that the ost runs heavy with leitmotifs and multiple versions depending on the situation(you notice this easiest in sirene with her day and night versions that meld into each other as you transition the area zones, and visage with the 3 miniboss variations). so its intentionally samey at times. this isnt a fault but more indicative to the extra effort the ost put in to support the experience.
You fags need medication
Why areso many song nonsense? Why couldn't the song be in french or english?
Can't beat JEREMY SOULE. HIS NAME IS LITERALLY. SOUL. THANK YOU BASED JEREMY FOR MAKING MY CHILDHOOD UNFORGETTABLE. THANK YOU TODD FOR OBLIVION AND SKYRIM BUT FUCK YOU FOR HORSE ARMOR
How come there are no nude modes of her yet
Have fun!
Go ahead, tell us what you think is good music anon.
I hate women
Alicia (the song that plays from the intro) has mostly gibberish lyrics but when you finish the game you get the Maelle song, which is the same but the lyrics are actual French
Some of the gibberish can sort of be decoded if you really want to
The only thing preventing Soule from being an all time GOAT is that he's chronically incapable of writing memorable battle music. His strongest suit is ambient, no one has him beat in that department.
Meh battle Music is overrated. I still meditate and draw to oblivion ost
The more buzzwords you throw in, the more reasonable and grown up you sound, right, kiddo?
Romance era chamber music for the most part
youtu.be
mogs the whole OST.
Romance era chamber music
largely falls under the general "classical" umbrella term
DS soundtrack may as well be just one track. They are all in the same genre they all sound the same, they are indistinguishable. E33 has more variety that DS1 and 2 will have combined. I like DS soundtrack and still listen to it, but you are either shitposting or retarded.
Bach’s cello concertos are probably a good starting point
The French have actually made some great games if you look past Ubisoft

Words have meanings. Pretending to be a cretin doesn't make you cool. You are retarded and probably an americunt.
Doubt it's underappreciated, but this is still probably my favorite song in the whole game. Other than Rain from the Ground, it's the one that stuck in my head the most.

I saw that the OST was top of the Billboard Classic Music chart, which is impressive but I also didn't know existed so maybe there's no competition. Either way, best OST in at least 5 years.

I'll be honest anon, it's actually worth buying. I pirated 98% of shit and I bought it. But yeah, pirate it at the very least.

I'm certain there's a member on the team with a foot fetish. The line about Monoco carrying around a bunch of stinky nevron feet was waaaay to obvious.
The sequel to the UPS sim that nobody but Kojimadrones gives two shits about? Come on anon, nobody is biting that bait. La Creatividad is unquestionably the most overrated dev in gaming.
The phase 2 transitions in the 2nd Renoir, Paintress, and Simon fights are all peak just from the music.
they use the excuse that monoco is named after the studio dog and he likes to steal shoes or something. we all know the truth. we know its Stinky Feet Frédéric
IMO there should have been 3 Painted Power pictos. The first one raises cap to 99,999 (from Paintress). Second to 999,999 (from Renoir), third uncapped (from Simon).

That's pretty much what you need to do, sit down and compose. Do you play any instrument?

You're too cynical, you don't need to know any music theory to know you're listening to something great. Every normalfag is currently wanking to the OST, saying how great it is.

Piano is easy as fuck but you have to have a long term goal. Don't waste your time with scales or theory yet, learn to love the instrument, pick it up when you're down and make a small melody, pick it up when you're bored and make some chords.Do you want a couple of tutorials?
I don't really care for any of it, think it's kinda mediocre. Happy for the guy though.
appreciate you taking the time out to humor me bro, but maybe the time has passed for me, have a good one

dark souls 2, dead space 2 or dick sepsis 2 have to do with it?
I will remember the fact a bunch of frogs mindbroke Anon Babble into oblivion.
You can feel the seethe coming from your post, you were probably angrily typing all of that seethe.
I'm not sure how retards are mesmerized by random changeups or just straight up chaotic orchestra with no actual melody (to be fair, there are a few good pieces in Clair Obscur, but not the whole soundtrack).
Melody is what makes music beautiful.
If you want to hear good game soundtracks, I'd check out Halo: Infinite, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, a VERY select few Elden Ring pieces (Final Battle, Lord's Apparition, Volcano Manor, Ruined Forge, some others), The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, God of War 4, OG Destiny, Ori and the Will of the Wisps.
Every piece of music in E33 has melody though.
I don't consider complete tonal changeups or circus music melodious.
And the random electric guitar pieces? Garish.
You're trying way too hard. It's an anonymous board sweaty

are you me? my parents bought me a pretty nice keyboard when i was younger. i even knew how to play an instrutment (flute) already so i knew how to read notes pretty decently already. Just had to put effort into it and id actually be useful at something now but of course i didnt.

i felt this way too and im watching youtube vids now. thinking of getting a yamaha weighted 88 key digital piano. about $400-500ish i think off amazon so gonna save up and give it a try again. Dont give up anon, dont waset another 20 years with regret.
so is the only way to actually learn proper parry timings for some of the harder eneies is to actually get hit by the attack? Chromatic Troubador's hit reg for one of it's attacks looks like it's after the actual animation so idk how you're supposed to catch that unless I'm missing somethinig
There are no "random" changeups. You are autistic and cannot actually parse through unconventional and probably even completely ordinary melodies.
is this supposed to be good or impressive?
Its only slightly better than Dork Ages's mild soundtrack.
Can't even top KCD2's or DS2's soundtrack.
Even with all that photoshop she barely cracks 4/10
Anon didn't notice the changeup
You're definitely one of those tards that thought DS3 had the greatest soundtrack ever. lmao
oof that's a lot of tranimeslop
You are autistic and cannot actually parse through unconventional and probably even completely ordinary melodies.
what ive found from Anon Babble being down and E33 is that we have actual born in the wool real autists here who cannot understand human emotions, human face reactions, or comprehend stimuli like normal. Ive had people tell me verso and gustave arent white. that maelle is woke because her forehead is too small. this is straight up actual retard stuff.
Bringing her on as a co-composer probably cost a bit, but I think you're overestimating how much getting a few dozen musicians together for like a week would cost. But I wouldn't be surprised if Kepler sprung for the orchestra like they sprung for the voice acting.
Dodge tells you it's a perfect dodge when you hit the parry window.

it's a french game
a country with no history nor culture can never produce art.
france has never produce art and will never do as long as it's a slave to the sharia law
DS1's ost was alright but his previous games were much better. MGS1-3 all have amazing soundtracks.
france has never produce art
kek ok lets not be so political brain rotted you think that. its one thing to say modern france cant create art anymore but they clearly did.
as it's a slave to the sharia law
I wish.
No one give a shit what music looks like faggot
they clearly did.
Proof?
France has yet to produce any music or illustrations that have worldwide appeal
Imagine existing for over 1000 years and still not having a single known musician
They are inferior to Germans, Italians, Russians and Polacks, but they have a few decent musicians. Saint-Saens, Debussy, Satie, Gounod.
Debussy is by all means american
France is by far the #1 historical cultural power of the West and it's not even close. Thinking otherwise is extreme brainlettism.
produce any music or illustrations that have worldwide appeal
lets ignore impressionism
renoir, cezzane, monet,
Camille saint saens, debussy
every writer moving to paris like the irish, americans, all of europe etc
But i do like german composers so i understand why you say what you do but you are brown who want to pretend whites didnt have history.
Not gettting into the intiial OP's "france has never prouced any art" debate but #1 for western cultural impact would be Italy, not France.
France would clear Italy easy if it wasn’t for Florence
The West
I'd even argue Clair Obscur's soundtrack is no better than your typical JRPG slop soundtrack (again, to be fair, save a few spectacular pieces). It's just that normies got mesmerized by the neo-classical flair of Clair Obscur and gaslit themselves into believing they have a refined taste.
Let's compare Clair Obscur with a random JRPG (Tales of Arise):
Clair Obscur Gestral Merchant - Cribappa Battle Theme - youtu.be
Tales of Arise: Flame of the New Dawn Battle Theme - youtu.be
I don't know how anyone can listen to either of those and not say they're cut from the same slop cloth.
How about another? My favorite Clair Obscur piece paired against a similar beat from ToA.
Lettre à Maelle - youtu.be
Hand to Hand (ToA) - youtu.be
And how about the menu theme everyone creams their pants over?
Alicia: Claire Obscur - youtu.be
Beyond the Dawn: ToA - youtu.be
It's all the same JRPG slop just with a French twist. You could literally interchange any of the Tales of Arise songs in Clair Obscur and it would fit perfectly.
Mind you, I'm in love with Lettre à Maelle, and some of the other pieces from Clair Obscur are simply spectacular, but to be in denial that much of the soundtrack isn't just JRPG slop is is delusional.
This isn't necessarily meant to shit on Tales of Arise either, because I think it actually has a great soundtrack as well. You could argue Clair Obscur has slightly better acoustics, but I think the melodies and even the thematic beats are similar and largely interchangeable.
you are clearly a bugman, the SOUL is tangible
They both have soul. lmao
It's just people are really trying to convince themselves as if Clair Obscur's soundtrack is groundbreaking and new, but it's not and is heavily inspired by the game genre (which is perfectly fine).
The difference you're hearing is the acoustics—the recording came out better in post because they kept a lot of the natural reverb of the recording studio. You could argue it has "more soul" because of this and it would be fair, but the melody is where you can really pinpoint the sameness of the music.
get a Yamaha p-45 ive had it for about 11 years and this bastard has not let me down once. You can also connect it to a computer and play thousands of other sounds through it
none of those Arise tracks are really noteworthy.
like they're good but sort of in the background. Alicia and Lettre à Maelle are much more emotional songs I'd say many of the songs of the soundtrack are. they're dripping with emotion.

Alicia is still my favorite song in the game. I can listen to that on loop.
Flame of the New Dawn Battle Theme
extremely boring and extremely unbattle like. I went through the rest of the flame songs and they arent particularly memorable or hummable. Myabe its a asian thing but their classical music is mid even though its technically impressive its forgettable.
I was about to make this comment. It becomes monotonous and grating. No one likes violin that much.
it's baroque!
You didn't even know that word before you started glazing this game, stfu
I think E33 feels like its musicianship is higher quality therefore its better, but the actual melodies asides from may Alicia are not as memorable compared to other contemporary music. Thats not me hating on the soundtrack I think its lovely but the core structure of each song is nothing special desu
Yamaha p-45
Looking quickly thats what i stumbled upon as my likely pick. Im not sure what the B in 45B part stands for or if its relevant or a different model but the 45 is what i was aiming for. Thanks for suggesting it to me, makes me feel its the right choice.
All solid choices. I like:

jesus christ, dude.
this game is being shilled to hell and back here. its not a turn based rpg and it sucks. dont see the appeal
I just listened to all of them back to back and I agree now with what you were saying. Both soundtracks are good but they do have the contemporary video game classical vibe with similar progressions. I think Clair Obscur sounds like it was recorded differently, like it sounds warmer as if they are in the room with you which is what gives it a leg up in emotional depth
I have no idea how a sentient human can compile all this music into a single post and in the process not be blown away by the sheer colossal power gap between the unremarkable generic jap music and masterfully composed symphonies of E33.

they're both good broski you don't have to pick sides and just be glad we are able to live in a time with great music being written. Don't let the toxic positivity that the game has garnered infect the pure realm of music as well
Kepler is going to milk the fuck out the rights they secured for this game, this is already far bigger than Sifu.
Chances they organize official concerts?
but it's also sort of bland and forgettable, something you wouldn't play outside of playing the actual game
Holy troll. Post 3 of your favorite ost then.
Don't let the toxic positivity
its not toxic if its actually good retard. Toxic positivity is for slop that streamers say is good so they get more sponsorships.
If you skip the victory screens, it's your problem. I stand listening to them all the time.
Why it has a leg for the victory screen which you skip in 1 second I have no clue
All battle themes have a special victory screen version.
I'd even argue Clair Obscur's soundtrack is no better than your typical JRPG slop soundtrack
That's interesting because you would be wrong.
Devs said they hold full rights for the game and Clair Obscur in general. They also said they recieved multiple offers but didn't do anything with them so far.
They need to get on that Artbook and Esquie plushie shit asap because i'm gonna buy them.
Death Stranding had music?
I'm like 95% sure they announced both already.
Kepler has some adaptation rights at least.
They announced both for later this year.
Kepler has some adaptation rights at least.
For the movie yes.
Oh fuck I would go see the shit out of a concert
It's apparent you don't know what toxic positivity is. This is a thread about music which other games do extremely well but because you've made E33 your entire personality you have to declare E33's music is the objectively greatest thing of all time and nothing comes close and any push back hurts your feelings. You are the living breathing embodiment of toxic positivity and your the reason most people are sick of these threads because they cant even compare E33 to other games without having people like you jump on their nuts and have a fit
Same.

Toxic positivity is a mindset that emphasizes positivity in all situations, often to the point of ignoring or invalidating negative emotions.
Its shilling something just to be positive. im saying E33 is great because it is.

no one is arguing with you that E33 isn't great. But the attitude of having to put down other video game soundtracks because you think E33 is better is what is toxic about it

Not even the best in the series. Gestalt and Drakengard 1 mog.
I genuinely fucking resent Metaphor after having played E33.
An AA game from a new studio and a new composer has 8 hours of music with like 10+ memorable bangers and the best Atlus can manage is 5-8 tracks it then plays ad nauseum for a full 80 hour playthrough.
What exactly is the problem with pointing out that JRPGs are stingy as fuck with the content they provide, despite coming from more established studios?

It's not even bad music but Expedition clearly out does it.
They're also kino
Yup, we have food at home.
Luckily, we are french. The food at home is just as great.
Oh makes sense
I don't even think people are claiming E33's OST is best soundtrack ever. The original poster of the comment chain felt the need to shit on E33's OST so of course people are gonna hit back when the retort is dime a dozen JRPG orchestral tracks (which are GOOD btw just nothing really to write home about)
FFXIV music sounds like wet fart recently. There are still a few good ones, but overall just ain't how it used to be in quality. Idk the game has been in decline lately
Yeah, they need to add this patch.
Also change the point cost to 1.
I think Clair Obscur sounds like it was recorded differently, like it sounds warmer as if they are in the room with you which is what gives it a leg up in emotional depth
Exactly. Bravo!
I mentioned in a post little after my initial comparison that they likely kept the natural acoustics of their recording studio in post. It sounds exactly how the instruments would in a orchestral theater.
And yes, Clair Obscur definitely has a little more emotional depth do its soundscape, as you pointed out. Glad we can appreciate this insight together.
I literally say this out loud when the vocals come in
I didn't post the Arise soundtracks
Anon who compiled ToA and E33 music invited comparisons and E33 clearly and utterly wipes the floor with it. That's all there's to it.
What other songs have indecipherable lyrics?
I know Une vie à rêver does secret third ending confirmed.
The greatest video game soundtrack ever produced, at least in the scifi genre, remains Endless Space 2. If you don't agree, you are wrong.

looks like latin along with with maybe gibberish or another language?
Une vie a rever plays in the credits for Verso’s ending
ok you've got me there. but the point still stands for other instances
sorry this was for
I was never arguing that Tales of Arise was better, I was simply pointing out that Clair Obscur's soundtrack is clearly inspired by the JRPG music genre, and shares many similar progressions to actual JRPG soundtracks.
I wasn't shitting on Clair Obscur's soundtrack either, I just don't find it all that remarkable because I recognize the inspiration behind it.
but can E33 beat the goat
youtube.com
I'm never playing E33.
I wanted to fine the translated version of Clea's battle theme (which looks like latin) but the translation on google come out as complete mush
Clair Obscur's soundtrack is clearly inspired by the JRPG music genre, and shares many similar progressions to actual JRPG soundtracks
How many times do the devs need to make it clear that they were inspired by JRPGs? They have a dozen interviews saying this shit why the fuck were you acting like this was new?
The soundtrack itself is still a standout
I have Verso fatigue.
Actually Lorien's main inspiration is Zelda which isn't a jarpig.
It shows that while she's strict and level headed, she doesn't have a stick shoved up her ass and knows how to unwind and be comfy in her home.
There's too many faggy tracks, not enough chill or hype tracks. It's okay
The soundtrack itself is still a standout
It's unremarkable because of its inspiration. The normies can't get passed the French flair, when at its heart, it's largely just boring JRPG melodies.
There are many, many, many far superior game soundtracks, and some are inspired by JRPGS soundtracks just the same.
Adding a few tracks I haven't seen posted yet but think are real standouts

Literally could not have guessed that, Zelda has so many memorable melodies that E33 just lacks. Beautifully arranged music, but it doesn't have that whimsy harmonic soul that Zelda has
saars, how do I redeeming the Lune ai?
Nier's OST is a legit 10/10
still kind of pissed the remaster didn't let you switch back to the original soundtrack

I prefer the boss version, there is something about the overlapping vocals that makes it stand out more for me.

"Maelle" is the same song with the lyrics translated
Just putting the normies in their place, anon. Like children, they need to be told "no".
There are clear things that make Clair Obscur's soundtrack a cut above, but I'm not going to pretend some of its technical achievements set it above better soundtracks with better melodies.
Again, I brought up in another post that Halo Infinite, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, a VERY select few Elden Ring pieces (Final Battle, Lord's Apparition, Volcano Manor, Ruined Forge, some others), The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, God of War 4, OG Destiny, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, (obv others), are all examples of superior soundtracks. They're all much more consistent, have clear progressions, build up and pay off, and contribute to the overall focused atmosphere and themes of the games and stories—the story and the music goes hand in hand to enhance one another in each game.
sorry i don't understand white flag speech
you just keep trying to force your opinion as the "correct one" while shitting on this games soundtrack. you keep saying that you not trying to shit on this game but you very clearly are.
Like nigger get over yourself if people like this game.
Zelda has so many memorable melodies that E33 just lacks.
wouldnt zelda have more memorable songs because its an older game?
what?
Elden Ring pieces
the only ER that is memorable is prime Radahn. Thats it. The rest is generic orchestra. Bloodbornes a better example. Ludwig, father gascogne, etc are much more significant songs for Fromsoft.
Memorable songs are one that you can recall over and over. Zelda has been reused over and over so its easy to recall them since its a series with many of the same sounds and music. E33 has a ton of memorable songs anyway i disagree but the relevant of zelda is its age i think.
For me it's his Prey 2017 OST

"Une vie à t'aimer" is literally what you are describing.
Random electric guitar plays.
You can simply just admit you enjoy JRPG slop soundtracks, anon. It's okay. You'll only get judged here. I hear they're more accepting on plebbit.
Not him but Assassin's Creed franchise is known to have epic good soundtracks. Valhalla is one of them
What other video game music do you like then because it sounds like Clair Obscur is your first experience in listening to something that isn't anime intros which is why you hold in such high regard
Dark Souls 1 only had Bloodborne's theme
That's how I read that before I realized you were talking about kojina

"Une vie à t'aimer" is literally what you are describing.
It's one song, and not one I particularity like either.
My point is that each song in those other games' soundtracks builds upon one another to tell an entire several hour story through music and melody alone. Clair Obscur has too much dissonance that you can't really get anything out of the music aside from some few pieces. It's not any different than the chaotic tonal changes in the typical JRPG.
Having said that, Lettre à Maelle absolutely mogs the entire Clair Obscur soundtrack, and it's not close.
Not him but id say mozart is.
B > B > M
You're both forgetting about Haydn the man who taught Beethoven all his tricks
Which B is which? I do like beethoven and Bach but idk enough to pick one over the other. Mozart to me just seems to have every song is a light and uplifting melody.
Id also say i really like verdi.
Verdi is based. youtube.com
What other video game music do you like then
Pretty much...most of it? But for the most part, the majority of videogame soundtracks have "the good stuff" and tons of filler.
The thing about E33 is that it has good memorable motifs, it has a well defined "default" style, and can accomplish high intensity and slower pieces with the same success, then to prevent itself becoming too formulaic it suddenly shifts genres in a way that doesn't feel too anachronistic.
It has songs that are played commonly, but also rarer tracks that are allowed to be special. Some songs are only in one place. It can do instrumental, vocal, classic, electronic, buttrocky, one track is just some weird poetry piece. Some tracks have random vocal segments or some corny guitar solo will play because the composer is just having fun whilst not being too self-indulgent. There's variants of every battle theme just for the end-screen that sometimes brings entirely new instrumentation or vocals in just for flavour.
It's use of melodies is brilliants, there are loads of recognisable songs you can hum along to. There's tons of music and it's insane because so little of it feels like filler, it's all meat.
Clair Obscur has too much dissonance
No it doesn't and you probably have autism if you think that good soundtracks need to be in a fixed genre.
No it doesn't
It does.
if you think that good soundtracks need to be in a fixed genre.
This is a strawman, my friend. I never said that.
I wish this dude all the best. He's still young, so there is some great potential for more kino
