      Lyrics/Vocal music is a bit rarer in games sometimes but as soon as the vocals kicked in for this track during the first area in the game i fell in love with the music and the game too.

      Exactly the same. I just stopped progressing the dialogue and listened and then came here to look for it. Very peaceful and nostalgic. Bitter sweet. Mostly sweet. But it does make you miss something.

    I oftentimes struggle to get a game to hook me in, and whenever one does it's usually due to one stellar moment or detail. This song is what's done it for me with this game; I didn't expect to be hit in the feels as hard as I have.

    Lyrics courtesy of the wiki:
    Do you feel it
    The lack of wind but abundance of air
    We’re all in the same ship
    Floating somewhere without any aim
    But at least we’re together
    As we tether and link our arms as we think
    That there’s no getting out here
    I don’t know you but we’ll make the most of
    Wherever we are now
    Slow floating under the stars now
    It’s okay to be uncertain, cause I’m certain it’s fine
    To be floating here for a while
    With you, wherever we are now
    We’re not dead
    suspended in a place of hush, not upset
    Just puzzled by the sense of bemusement
    It’s amusing losing all of our direction, now we’re lost
    Tell me which way you wanna go
    Tell me how far you’re thinking
    and I swear if you wanna go
    I’ll be right there by your side
    And honestly it can go
    Either way but I think I’m alright
    With the chance that we might end up
    Right back here
    Wherever we are now
    Slow floating under the stars now
    It’s okay to be uncertain, cause I’m certain it’s fine
    To be floating here for a while
    With you, wherever we are now

    This song reminds me of my Mom. She passed away suddenly 2 years ago, and she was the best friend I'll ever have, the best friend that anyone COULD have. We were SO CLOSE that, even other people who lose their Mom, they have no idea what I'm going through. A lot of the things said in this song are things that she said to me while I was going through tough times (and I've been through A LOT of em). She always lived her life for others and to make us all happy. Out of all of us in our family, she deserved a long life and a happily ever after more than anyone. It's not fair she's gone. She was the most wonderful person who had ever or will ever grace this Earth.
    The song makes me sad, but it also makes me feel this comfort that only she made me feel. I miss her so goddamn much every day. And I wouldn't have it any other way. Truly, thank you so much for this. ❤❤❤

      Sorry for your loss. I cannot imagine a world without her. She raised me without a father and she did the most marvelous and unselfish job. I'm sure your mom is still looking after you, even though she isn't here anymore. It's cliche but she would want you to be happy and make a lot of great memories. I think that's what I'll tell myself anyways when that day comes.

    Man, the more I listen to this theme I enjoy the subtle brilliance of this song. I decided to focus on the drum section for hearing, and I do enjoy the fact that when they get to "Now we're lost" the drums actually break the pattern they've been on for pretty much the entire song. As if it's actually lost it's way from the pattern/path it was on the whole time, all the way until we hit "Right back here or Wherever we are now" then it got back on track/pattern.
    I could still be reading too much into it, but it's fun to notice stuff and speculate like this.

    This song is like a slow, addicting poison. It makes me feel like I could stay in the moment with the singer forever, just relax, and slowly drift off. It's like the sirens who tried to convince Odyssius to stay because everything was so perfect. Like Odyssius I have to pry myself away from paradise to go complete my own quests, live my life, but the song calls me back.

    I was in a deep depression, even with.. this only person I had for me, she wasn’t here for comfort me in my dark moments. All I see and think was nothing, I felt like even with my open eyes, I didn’t see anything. It was a horrible time, I was very emotionless.
    But when I play this game.. my heart was.. feeling great. It was like this game comforted me. The characters, the story and the music… it was something I never felt before. Now I am alright for myself and I open my heart to everyone, but I still have scars of it.
    Thank you Cassette Beasts for "curing" my loneliness on my heart ❤️

    Demoralized by a period of general gaming dissatisfaction, I recently downloaded Cassette Beasts to relax, hoping to find a simple game that would remind me of old-gen RPGs-not necessarily beautiful or stimulating, but just chill.
    Instead, I found a well-crafted, charismatic game with its own identity despite the colossal brand it draws inspiration from, and a stunning soundtrack.
    This track, in particular, gives me a sense of serenity and nostalgia, as if I were experiencing old feelings...
    Truly a small oasis in the desert.
    Fun fact: 1:11 I thought it was saying, "Whatever Rihannaaaa."

      Yeah, this and Same Old Story really catch you on the lyrics, since you just expect the themes to just be instrumental. But as soon as you enter Gramophone Cafe or other buildings in Harbourtown and hear vocals "engaged" in the theme you get a sense this soundtrack is going to be memorable. And when you first get Fusion and hear that lyrics activate in battle from fusing it makes the battle themes more dynamic as well.

      @@stefcord pokemon has never really been "good" by today's standards, the only reason tobplay the earlier games is nostalgia, since they didn't really have much to offer, all they really did well was marketting, and overall good business practices, none of which are relevent at this point, their marketting doesn't improve your experience with the game 90% of the time
      Pokemon feels like the cheap rippoff of a genre that has far surpassed it, and it has felt that way for years by now
      Even the anime was mediocre, just had a really catchy opening, and cute designs, all of the "similar" series were at least as good, if not better, but didn't get as much traction due to a lack of existing brand recognition and insane nintendo money advertising
