Only problem is that you don't get a Killing Edge until later in the game. Or I may have just missed it, or it's because I'm playing on difficult mode. Edit: Yup, the first Killing Edge that you can get appears in Chapter 11.
I'm 10 months late here, but this song DOES play on the map where you recruit Zihark and get the Killing Edge. It was this very map when I just replayed it that this song stood out to me as being great.
Mercenaries look like pussies in this game anyways What happened to my beefy dudes from the GBA days? All these myrmidons wanna pick up a slightly heavier sword and give themselves a new title, but I see right through em
This battle hits so hard and the music is perfect for it. Ike's father was just murdered, their base was completely surrounded and closing in. It's a moment where you would blame him if he lost all hope. His friends needed him. The moment a boy truly becomes a man.
I always liked this song, but I didn't know it was the Greil Mercenary theme! That makes it so much better! They should make a FE where you play as Greil as a precursor to the events of Path of Radiance....it would be awesome.
@@AaronGanaronThe masterclass that is FE7 spawned from an idea this errant. Roy's folks played almost no role in their original story, yet they receive the best game in the series. To this day, it still hardly occurs to me that the definitive Fire Emblem release is, in fact, a prequel. Anything can happen.
@@Strrlaza I was a 2000’s kid so I never got a chance to play this growing up :/ I found the series at a time when I needed it though so I suppose it worked out.
I have very fond memories of playing this part of the game in my room on a small VCR. Spring had just started, and a very nice breeze flew through my room as I played. Now this song always makes me think of the start of spring.
Awesome game awesome music awesome everything. This is one of the best tunes from PoR... I think it's the best Fire Emblem everything-wise. Maybe too easy?Still amazing!
Really wish someone extended this song; it's part of the reason I look for 5-unit training tower stratums in Heroes. :P I loved hearing this song in PoR, and I still love hearing it now when kicking butts with the Crimean princess, the happy woobie green-haired mage from a group of assassians, the lazy yet powerful Valentian mage, and the oracle of a dragon goddess that adored Marth. :P
See THIS is the theme that should have played in Ike's opening scene in ssbb not that one from Radiant Dawn. In my opinion it has a much more heroic and active vibe in comparison to the chosen song. Just play it over the scene at he point where his sword appears to see what I mean.
Soren's robe for me. They're map animations, and this theme first plays in the rain during a pivotal rally in the story. It only means you played this game as much as I did back when.
I got stuck on that one defense map but this song was the main thing motivating me to revisit the chapter. This song is so good, especially that violin passage.
Idk if it’s because of Nostalgia, or that this was my first game, or both, but PoR has easily the best music in the series. (Maybe I’ll change my mind eventually with the more Fire Emblem games I play-)
No, Zelda/Fire Emblem Nerds unite. :) It makes you cool :) this song plays in chapter 8 Despair and Hope, as well as chapter 3, and I beleive 9. Wow I've palyed this gmae tooo many times. XD
Ike:Woo! Soren:The boys are back in town! Maijin:WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU GUYS?! Soldier:I- They're too powerful! Maijin:They're two fucking children! You're soldiers! WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!? Ike: and that time over at Soren's place, Titania got up and slapped Soren's face. *Soren absentmindedly blows away an army while Ike cuts a man in half while singing a duet* Both:THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN! THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN! Maijin:I--......WHAT?! ARE THEY SERIOUSLY KILLING OUR ENTIRE ARMY WHILE SINGING A FUCKING DUET?!?!?! *Meanwhile, near the rest of the army* Boyd:DAMN, Oscar! THESE ARE AMAZING! What did you use? Oscar:A chef never gives up his recipes. You got a spare lounge chair? *Boyd pushes Titania off of her lounge chair* Boyd:Right here. Titania:BOYD!
the nostalgia hits like a killing edge

That's if the rng decides to give you the critical lol.
Now it's hitting like Nephenee's Slaying Lance+ in Heroes.
Nah. It hits like Alondite did on Greil
>group is called Greil Mercenaries
>not a single character is Mercenary class
Technically speaking Ike counts as a merc
it's the thought that counts
Mercenaries look like pussies in this game anyways

@@maagic2031 imagine being an elitist bitching about Path Of Radiance. I may be a casual, but even I wouldn't go that far.
@@thatnerdinthecomments4678 It's a joke dude. No one is gonna unironically rant about generic enemies getting redesigned lol

Glad to see this theme got in
RandomGuy same here
I love this game so much
It's the best FireEmblem game of them all IMO.
Yes it is
I always liked this song, but I didn't know it was the Greil Mercenary theme! That makes it so much better!
They should make a FE where you play as Greil as a precursor to the events of Path of Radiance....it would be awesome.
Hello from the future! No, it hasn't happened, but..
Imagine getting to play as Altena and save the world 700 years in the past

This theme is sad for me since it starts playing just after Greil's death.
john snow dies han solo dies sanji is a prince ventus controls soras body in Kingdom Hearts
Jon* Snow didn't die and Ventus doesn't control Sora, his heart just lives in Sora's body.
Man I forgot that story point was before this; really makes this track feel like it's telling you the troupe's sticking around for the journey.
2:21 gives me chills every time.
Cursed timestamp errors, confusing 2:21 with 2:01. But that's what I'm here for.🙂
Is it possible to feel nostalgia for a game you’ve never played? Because that’s what this song makes me feel.
A fortunate happenstance of hearing a top-three track from the game in advance. 🙂
I feel legitimate sorrow for anyone who did not get to play this game as a kid
@@Strrlaza I was a 2000’s kid so I never got a chance to play this growing up :/
I found the series at a time when I needed it though so I suppose it worked out.
I'm so glad Intelligent Systems put this back in Fire Emblem Heroes! Nostalgia hit like a brick wall.
It just sounds so epic and beautiful, I can see (no hear) people just going in awe listening to it. Fire Emblem games have awesome soundtracks.
I have very fond memories of playing this part of the game in my room on a small VCR. Spring had just started, and a very nice breeze flew through my room as I played.
Now this song always makes me think of the start of spring.
Cool theme I'm glad to hear it in heroes
God damn it, I want to play this game again for the first time...
My childhood right here
Awesome game awesome music awesome everything.
This is one of the best tunes from PoR...
I think it's the best Fire Emblem everything-wise.
Maybe too easy?Still amazing!
this is my favourite theme from path of radiance!! praying for a remake
*SPOILERS*
Funny how even after Greil's death, they're still called the Greil Mercenaries. He left a huge legacy in his wake.
you really couldn't have tried harder to hide those spoilers?
@@ryangallagher9723 and splitting Ike's pride in half.
@@ryangallagher9723 you went in comments of the ost of a game that's been out for like 20 years
@@ryangallagher9723 It's been like 14 years lmao
He was the best... truly worthy of the class name Hero.
This song always gets stuck in my head... And there's nothing wrong with that. (:
Also known as Team Ike.
1:34 Boy, does that part get to me.
Man..
Doesn't this song just fill you up with adrenaline?
It took me so long to find this.
God I love those violins in the middle.
0:15 I love the violin here
When I listen to this, I'm home.
Really wish someone extended this song; it's part of the reason I look for 5-unit training tower stratums in Heroes. :P I loved hearing this song in PoR, and I still love hearing it now when kicking butts with the Crimean princess, the happy woobie green-haired mage from a group of assassians, the lazy yet powerful Valentian mage, and the oracle of a dragon goddess that adored Marth. :P
This is my favorite game song ever.
Finished this game over a year ago and I'm willing to play it again. I also played Radiant Dawn but I find Path of Radiance more enjoyable.
It's a really good song but at 2:01 it gets AWESOME!
See THIS is the theme that should have played in Ike's opening scene in ssbb not that one from Radiant Dawn. In my opinion it has a much more heroic and active vibe in comparison to the chosen song. Just play it over the scene at he point where his sword appears to see what I mean.
crinsongard I know I'm late, but that other song was Eternal Bond.
Well, Eternal Bond fitted more, given the moment the characters were on
I absolutely love this.. can not WAIT to hear the fire emblem switch ost..!
at 1:11, I always think of Ike's cape flowing in the wind... Is that weird? xD
Not at all
Soren's robe for me. They're map animations, and this theme first plays in the rain during a pivotal rally in the story. It only means you played this game as much as I did back when.
the best part
I'm the normie that went and looked for this soundtrack when it appeared in Heroes.
same
go download dolphin, get a path of radiance iso, hook up a ps3 or xbox controller, and play path of radiance gay asses
Not same. Just looking for a different song in heroes
I need an extended version of this...
CAN WE HAVE A REMAKE PLEASE?!
This. I wouldn't even mind buying it for the Wii U having the game already for the Gamecube.
+TheUltra Yea if we had one I could actually play this game without emulating it!
This game is far from needing a remake, sorry. :P
Or a VC release!?
Let me dream please ;^(
I got stuck on that one defense map but this song was the main thing motivating me to revisit the chapter.
This song is so good, especially that violin passage.
Aw man, I thought I was the only one who loved how 2:00 sounded
Idk if it’s because of Nostalgia, or that this was my first game, or both, but PoR has easily the best music in the series. (Maybe I’ll change my mind eventually with the more Fire Emblem games I play-)
only we have such fine taste
No, Zelda/Fire Emblem Nerds unite. :) It makes you cool :) this song plays in chapter 8 Despair and Hope, as well as chapter 3, and I beleive 9. Wow I've palyed this gmae tooo many times. XD

@ganondorf5326 NEH, that just makes you full of AWESOME
How does this awesome song have no prior comments? =O
hi
1:06
It’s hard to listen to this track without hearing the sound of enemy cavs’s lances hitting.
For some reason I think this sounds like something you'd hear in a soul calibur game. But that's just me...
How is every part of this song the best part of the song
@ganondorf5326 Sounds like my kind of party. XD
Probably. :3
Edward is sweet, though he needs a little babying, it's worth it. :B
youtube wont load :/
2:20 I nutted
But seriously tho.
Fuck Chapter 10 stealth mode.
Why do you all call this a song? This is NOT a song! It’s a time, theme, music. Songs have words/lyrics
Its not a bad song, but god did it wear on me...
Lol this is like the worst map theme in the console games.
That's your opinion! I think this is one of the best!
How? I respect your opinion, but how?
What! This theme is awesome
