I wish I could forget all and relive ME1 for the first time again.
It gets better every time for me. S'pose I'm just lucky.
I'd like to see a version with a true pacifist option.
I had that luck first time playing mass effect and was fucking epic
We all do, man.
No matter how many times I play through Mass Effect, I still get goose bumps every time I first go to the Citadel. And this song is perfect for it. Adds to the feeling of wonder and just fits perfectly.
+jasamps21 Yeeeep... Havent played ME for few years now but whenever I hear these good old songs every hair in my body goes erect.... :D
I remember when I first played Mass Effect. About...... I'd say 9 years ago from today, I believe, back when I was a sophomore in high school. It was the first game to genuinely give me a headache due to its shear vastness and plethora of information. There was so much to learn from the codec, and the Presidium was so large that I often got lost exploring. Today though, I can navigate it with relative ease, and I understand the political views of most races.
Still, listening to this really adds to the Citadel's Grandeur.
The first time you visit the citadel, the theme music is slightly different then the visits after that .... I really enjoyed the first visit with each playthrough
I've just finished the Citadel DLC of Mass Effect 3 right now (I know, I'm a late bloomer) and I'm still in love with the citadel ambient music, just like in the first ME game. For me, this theme almost bring emotions as strong as FF 7-8-9 and 10 or Tomb Raider 1, I love it.
those goose bumps man
I wish i could experience mass effect 1 again so badly
Or the whole series for that matter. I played the trilogy for the first time five years ago when I was starting 8th grade. It's so nostalgic that it hurts.
So after all these years, I've just looked up what Presidium actually means...
interesting!
Is it weird that I'm genuinely sad that I can't live here?
This reply is a year late, but NO. It's not sad at all.I wish I could live there, as well! The Mass Effect Galaxy is perhaps my favorite Sci-Fi Universe to virtually inhabitant. Perhaps that's why it wins out over all the others I love - Star Wars, Trek, Stargate, ect. Not to mention all the space sims I've played. But those are just composed of books and movies and episodes. BioWare did something incredible when they gave us a universe where we felt as, if only for the span of a few hours, that we truly did live IN that universe. We were part of it. We affected it. It was not just in our minds, it was before our eyes. If only virtually. But it was sublime. Also, they've always done cities in their games REALLY well. Here's to you, BioWare, for three amazing games that gave us deeply loved characters and a deeply thought provoking and complex story. And here's to 2017 and the Final Frontier in Mass Effect Andromeda! #Toboldlygo
truer words have never been spoken
Just said the same thing
Considering that the Citadel will be attacked by Geth, Cerberus, Reapers and then crashland on Earth... yes. It's weird.
Yes it's weird.
"I hate politicians"
"I cant tell the aliens from the animals"
"I hate politicians."
Don't we all.
Dame it Ashley this is the last place you should be racist...
"Politicians are the weeds of the galaxy."
Almost 10 years later and this music is still so great it marks Mass Effect 1. Thank you for uploading. Hackett out.
am i the only one who thought this piece was both awe-inspiring and ominous at the same time
Given what we later find out about it, that seems like a good description. It looks too good to be true, and it is. Ancient machines, and beings with dark intentions lurk beneath the gleaming facade, while the blind cattle above it bicker and squabble over their place within a giant deathtrap.
Yeah, totally agree. I've said this before on a previous video, the theme is a mixture of wonder and awe (as you said), yet somewhat eerie at the same time, as if a dark secret lies hidden somewhere..
Always creeped me out, even before I knew about what it was.
Please do not disturb the keepers
Knowing full well I’m going to have sex with it
Big place! It sure is peaceful here.
I can't tell the aliens from the animals
Did you know there's fish on the Presidium?
You think anyone ever drowned in that lake of theirs?
I was pretty much only in C-sec for show. There wasn’t much crime around here.
Peaceful...calm...relaxing
Wake me when this is over!
OH GOD THE NOSTALGIA IS KILLING ME
ALLOW ME TO BE YOUR GUIDE
Avina, that's it for now.
lol...made me laugh
I should go.
Imagine if one day we meet aliens and they lead us to a superstructure like the Citadel...
ITS A TRAP!!!!
With this melody I could meet with any one from outer space,,,) Just beautiful music...
RaizenToguro nihilist
RaizenToguro hum... well I can't comment this :)
The shooter was not even muslims and btw they are too weak to "kill the world" but gj with that logic :P
ohhhhhh boy! those long elevator rides
Alex Day Ahhh, those elevator interactions.
*Rush to complete side quest*
*Gets stuck on a dinner for 3 on Elevator*
>Listen to this music
I can't wait until humanity becomes a type 3 civilization!
>Goes to walmart
Fuck it humanity is done for - _ -
Stop going to Walmart.
***** what has that do to with that? just because hes a furry he isnt inferior, what kind of person are you , since when is being a fan of something or liking something makes you inferior. xenophobic degenerate
That may be but I promise I'll take many with me.
I'm digging the fashy comments.
You could've actually extended this like 20 minutes. I could easily listen to it for that long at a time.
I had a fight with my best friend last night about how games aren't fun anymore. I'm 28 and he's 29. He said I don't have fun with new games because I don't let myself have fun, but I say new games aren't fun because they're empty, commercial, and dead. Mass Effect was a great game. The music, the story, the scale: it was so easy to be immersed. They just don't make games like this anymore. Graphics don't mean anything if there's no feeling, and that's what games have lost.
CptSchmidt having said that, what’s your opinion on ME Andromeda?
Welcome to your 3rd decade of life, where new games just don't seem appealing anymore because you've become wiser to gaming companies' marketing; battle royale, freemium, nostalgic remakes, sequels.
32 now, and I'm with you.
I've always thought 99% of all games, TV series, novels and movies sucked. Not just now, but also in the past. I loved Mass Effect for its story, though.
Out of newer titles, I personally love almost every installment in the Trails series (esp. Sen no Kiseki). The story is epic at a scale comparable to Mass Effect, and the music is just as good, if not better. The story isn't quite as scientific, which is unfortunate, since I'm a science-nerd, but I like how the setting mixes fantasy elements with early modern era technology.
That said, other than those aspects the series share almost nothing in common. Trails is filled with anime / JRPG tropes, Mass Effect is filled with Hollywood tropes. Trails games tend to have a slow-ish beginning and overly fast-paced ending, while Mass Effect games have highs and lows spread out more evenly. Both have some of the best-written stories I've seen in any video game to date, though, so I recommend giving e.g. Trails of Cold Steel a go if you're more story-oriented like I am.
Gameplay-wise, I personally love Dark Souls and Bloodborne, and Sekiro is pretty good, too. I expect Elden Ring to be just as good. I also like sneaking games like MGS / Deus Ex, and debate games like Danganronpa / Ace Attorney. Sandbox games like Skyrim are also nice. In terms of gameplay, I think games have only become better over the decades, though I have to admit I haven't encountered any new supremely fun games after Bloodborne. But even that might just be my age showing, since apparently, people's brains become desensitized to "exciting" stimuli as they age, a process that, according to one hypothesis, seems to be attributable to dopamine neurotoxicity.
As a final note, I don't think anything can beat VNs in terms of story. Fate/Stay Night: Realta Nua has overwhelmingly the best story I've seen in any "video game" to date. That said it's basically a novel, so I suppose it doesn't really count.
back when bioware made good games
Dragon Age Inquisition was pretty great
@Артем Иванов Im only human after all don put your blame on me - BioWare
2000s futurism is marvelous
For some reason KOTOR II and Mass Effect 1 didn't feel so different in terms of atmosphere. And I mean that in the best way. They are great games.
Gryphon Botha I guess Bioware took a page from Obsidian's book
This was before EA had any influence on Bioware, back when it still was a damn good RPG company
Probably a bit late to comment but something interesting I found was that the presidium theme is very similar in notation to the theme of KOTOR II, the menu theme of which I cant remember the actual soundtrack listing...
J'adore cette musique de l'excellentissime et épique saga Mass Effect! Un pur chef-d’œuvre qui pourrait très bien figurer dans un film! ;)
Lardon2 carrément d accord
The Most Beautiful Game Ever
Anyone else hear that low hum?
Shivers. I want to live on the Citadel!
Saren and Reapers dislikes this video.
I loved the citadel and political stuff, it made me feel like star trek politics instead of star wars.I really like star trek and want more political intrigue because its fucking awesome.
I just finished this game for the first time and it still holds up.
Ah the citadel! If only a Eutopia like paradise existed in real life that was so peaceful and cooperative. Unfortunately humans are too destructive to ever achieve peace and crimeleseness as seen on the citadel.
I'm currently playing this in LAX cuz it feels like its the Presidium in here
I was mostly running around the presidium just to listen to this soundtrack while the reapers were trying to purge the fucking galaxy lol
Reminds me of Harry Potter for some reasons
Alright, forget Andromeda II. The next Mass Effect game needs to be back here.
oh man reminds me of when i visited the citadel for the very first time :')
Why does this sounds oddly creepy to me?
It's supposed to,given Citadel's secrets.
this music... amazing...
I love this track, it initiates a ME playlist that i can listen to all day at my desk without any of my colleagues caring or even noticing!
The pic is wrong. Very wrong.
"Because it's a big stupid jellyfish."
Good times
Let the good times roll!
Been playing Starfield, the music while in New Atlantis sounds heavily inspired by this
Harmony only harmony.
This song gives me anxiety because i only associate it with trying to find all the freaking little bug dudes.
This theme is perfect for showing you the sound of the elite and the politicians of the galaxy.
Big place!
Best game ever.
Remaster HYPEEE
i wonder what type of turn the mass effect series would go if it was still published by microsoft instead of ea
There would be no Mass Effect franchise to be talking about. Maybe EA fucks up developer studios, but they still publish a lot of games. Unlike Microsoft...
Microsoft needs to acquire Bioware :(
*amazing
Play this in my car too! Along with other mass effect music. Pretend I'm in my own little space car! :D
This is the "Something's amiss" theme.
This is the music of the future.
I only press Z when I'm at Presidium
Oh the feels!
you feel it? cause i do
Foolish YT algorithm! By Presidium, I meant the executive and administrative body of the Soviet Union, not arboretum music!
Looks like Babylon 5
this music only reminds me of my misfortune, to be born in wrong century, in a wrong alt universe!
I love this place! I remember getting so friggin lost on the Citadel - it was at that point that I realized that I love the game and want to live there.
70s retrofuturism is beautiful, loved how Mass Effect was inspired by it, the artwork and music is so retro sci-fi. Giant orbital space stations like the Standord Torus, Bernal Spheres and O'Neill Cylinders influenced the design of the Citadel. Stunning.
sounds just like the theme from the stargate movie
soothing chills
Isn't that from Elysium? I don't think that is the Citadel...
No, its from Mass Effect.
+Super Toaster From what part of the game? I'm halfway through ME3 and have never seen this image. If anything, this picture looks to be several times the size of Presidium you see in the games, judging from the curvature.
Rob Baillet Its not from the game, I'm assuming it's some art one of the devellopers made.
Its Ellysium i believe.
Moandor Ckcknnlteoue Its not.
Wish I could be there. Feels and seems so vast and amazing. Makes you wonder about space travel and meeting different intelligent alien lifeforms. Utterly anazing.
I still keep the trilogy for life, I just want live there
Kingdoms of amalur easter egg?
On 10000000000000000000 years
Nostalgia.
I can imagine people playing this song while in that inverted pyramid that's going to be built in Mexico City
So there's a big circle on Charon.
Potential Mass Relay?
To me this soundtrack sounds very much like something from a fantasy rpg, like a collage of all Amalur soundtracks together...
