sadly i did not realize the album was on its way out so I still didn't have working titles when I filmed this! Which tracks did I miss? Also let's do a live stream to listen to the rest!
It's okay, i recommend still listening to the tracks on your own tho, since the official releases tend to either have higher quality or are mixed differently
The titles of the tracks in order Venture of Tonalamatl Heights of Rumikunamanta A Night of their Own Glow of Nawpa Pacha The Nocturnal Firmament's Luster Feast and Bounty Eventide Chant Chasing Flames Like Strings Bequeathed to the Beloved ...Times Come Again No More Baba we Twasali ...Makani 'olu'olu Foundry of the Golden
From the ones you haven't listened yet (i think?), my favorites are: Chasing the Rainbow - used for Subway Surfers like gameplay in the game Grim Is the Night - basically a battle theme for Night Trials Reminiscent of the Stolen Flame - a domain OST Whistles of Monetoo - Toyac Springs OST but also canonically played by one of the local legends that you can fight in the open world Metaphor for Calamity - basically Capitano's theme Inheritance of an Ancient Name - Story exclusive track i believe Moment of Solace - also story exclusive track Sifu Moto - Scions of Canopy, Night
I think it'd be better for future patches to wait for official release, so that you get the full experience! They are usually released 4-5 weeks after the patch release
The number of times when I'm exploring Natlan that I just went "Damn, what a music..." The more than 70 tracks in the new album were really worth the listen.
Marco, I only started watching you about two days ago. When I usually play video games, i don't pay special attention to the soundtrack. But then I took your word of advice seriously when you said to listen to the tracks and try to interpret what it means to you. Well doing that, made playing through the new Archon quest so much more impactful. I never cry at any media, but damn i was close to it. Anyways, thanks for showing people and me theres more to these tracks than just music you listen in the background.
Hum, you make me realize, most people act like you, they just don't pay attention to the soundtrack, while I do, but probably because I have a music background. Glad that you shifted your mindset! There's a lot of things that reveal themselves that you absolutely don't hear in "unfocused" attention during a game.
I wanted to share a beautiful thing i noticed, “Il Capitano’s” ost, every time he pops up, revises and uses the part of the soudntrack “Elogia Cinerosa” written by Yu-Peng Chen where capitano pops up. (Elogia cinerosa uses a lot of elements specific for the harbingers, when Dottore pops up, brass plays, which is his signature) When capitano pops up a piano solo plays, which is still his signature with the new composer!
I will say, the tracks that involve primarily percussion aren’t necessarily meant to be ambient/background. In the traditions from which this region takes inspiration, percussion and rhythm are sometimes just as, if not more important than melody, and performances are often held with exclusively percussion instruments. There are also percussions used which can modulate their pitches (talking drum) or play melodies (marimba/balafon), giving a lot more complexity than pure rhythm. It’s very different from a typical Western classical approach to music, and I think it’s worthy of respect, too.
This musical tradition was the reason why I set my expectations from Natlan music pretty low since I usually dislike rhythm-based stuff, but even they kinda blew me away 😅 honestly, even though I'm still not a huge fan of that type of music, I'm more open to it now, and percussion insteuments which have different pitches are ones I like
I love everything about Natlan so much. As a Latina, I feel right at home, and the music brings me so much joy to listen to. Definitely my favorite soundtrack in the whole game. The fact that you appreciate this music makes me so happy. As always, thanks, Marco. 🤍
I love these listening sessions with Marco. Despite having listened to the Natlan OST for a month now, I'm still discovering things I haven't articulated before and gaining more appreciation for the music.
In high school here in mexico part of the Arts class was making traditional instruments, and one of them was a rain stick with bamboo, other was a drum, a flute, and a kind of whistle from the fruit called "guaje" which is normaly used to storage water or other liquids, but as i said you can make cups, or in our case instruments, was very fun, most of the instruments sounded like shit tho xD cause was made by us kids, but the rain stick lasted around 10 years.
Sometimes if Ive had a hard day, Ill pop on Genshin and just soak in the music environment. No character grinding or worrying about getting wishes-- just exploring and vibing.
just the name itself made me cry, “next song” resonates with my deeply, it reminds me of when i was a child, by best friend was named next song. Next song in-five-seconds… to be exact 😢
latin america is very similar to that funny enough too. we could be having the absolute worst things happening but we WILL find a way to still party that same night
What a treat to hear your thoughts Marco! Would love to hear you react to the music in the cutscenes, those are reallyyy melody inclined, in your next video.
AH Marco, I really enjoy listening to your opinion on the music and it really is incredible. I was sceptical when Yu-Peng left but even Fontaines music was still great but Natlan is just incredible..he really passed the hat along and they stepped up. Imho, they get very close to Yu-Peng but ofc, his style still lives on in the new music as well. In general, Genshins music is what makes the game to me, it is among the best soundtracks in history and it seems to just get better and more versatile as time goes on!!
Natlan is a nation which has such deep ties to the idea of legacy, memory and history and the music, to me, feels like a direct extension of the ideals of celebrating who the people of Natlan are, where they come from and allowing moments of reflection to guide them forward into the future by combining the lessons of long ago with today.
Agreed, they paint Natlan in such a way that you really care about the people of Natlan. Especially after Act 4, I really felt so many emotions and now I am all "For Natlan!"
12:50 Every time I hear this song on Natlan, for some reason I feel calm and a bit want to cry, idk why XD my favorite bgm in Natlan, Sometimes I just sit on the cliff above Scions of the Canopy and watch the evening view and listen to this music 9:02
Natlan is the first nation where i play unmuted and actively run around and take my time with quests, instead of teleporting. I got xilonen and skating along the path through the natlan sceenery gives me an incredible sense of peace!
"Fog of the Seasons" is one of my favorites that you didn't cover - for context It's one of the Night themes, but it's also the very first track that plays in game after the player makes a long (and completely silent) trek from Sumeru to Natlan. I think it's pretty emblematic of the nation.
Love the video :) I am always astonished at how Hoyo-mix can combine such varied cultural inspirations and instruments and make it sound cohesive in the overall message of their pieces, truly masters of the craft. If you get the chance to react to more from the ost, I would recommend any of the following pieces (some of my favorites): Inheritance of an Ancient Name, Undanced Dance, Whirl of Chalchiuhtlicue, Shedding Twilight and Chirping of Canyons. The sweeping melodies and spin on motifs take the atmosphere to another level.
HoYo-Mix absolutely crushed it with Natlan's OST. Easily one of the most special and distinct batch of music they've released. I know you don't play Genshin as much recently, but I know you'd love Natlan's exploration!
Battle Theme 3 makes me feel like I'm in a scene from Cowboy Bebop, stylishly badass. When I first heard it I didn't think it would go as hard as it does, and now I'm very torn on which one of the three battle themes is my favorite.
The first song sounds like a mission impossible video, but it's in a Timon & Pumbaa cartoon 😂😂 I love it how, on the surface, you have this joyful nation, but deep down you have songs like Land of Tecalco or even better Real of aethereal Murk which is so heavy that it can easily be played in Cyberpunk. As usual, they did an amazing job.
Honestly, Natlan's music is up there with Sumeru's for me. I'm not saying I dislike Fontaine's music, but there are fewer specific tracks that I remember. However, with both Sumeru and Natlan's soooo many of their songs are super memorable to me, and I love listening to the music both in and out of the game I also love how there's several versions of the same theme, like day/night, the different Ode of Resurrection versions that play at specific moments, and even a non battle version of a battle theme. Sumeru had a few of these, but I don't remember Fontaine having anything like that. I think the variations of the same song really helps bring me into the atmosphere. It connects the whole region in a way.
I know this is your second video about Natlan but I think I need to watch a conversation between Marco, @ludofonia (from Chile) and @AlphaWolfRadioWithEdygrimDJ (from Kenya) to go to Natlan feelings and roots
Great video as always. Btw check out crystal of abyss from the raiden v ost, you definitely wont regret it. Its composed by the guy who did rykards theme from ER.
Natlan city at night theme reminds me of Liyue at night and in the morning themes, gentle and peaceful, no shady stuff going on here like in Fontaine and port Osmos, no epic deeds like in Inazuma city or Sumeru city, just a city peacefully slumbering, confident in being protected.
Glad to listen to your thoughts on the natlan ost! It's always nice to see your reaction videos. Would you react to any of the new character demos/the music?
Thanks for the video. I really like Natlan's music for its warmth, lightness, reflection of nature and traditions. Very beautiful. I hope that you will listen to the themes from update 5.1. In cinematics (and the sequel after them), the Ode of resurrection was very beautifully redone. It sounds very epic.
Every time I log out of Genshin I go back to Scions of Canopy and listen to its 3 tracks. I really like them so much 😊 Also, it's good to see you back again Marco
Natlan region with those people reminds Lustria with lizardmen in Warhammer Fantasy universe, both share the similar theme, tradition, supremacy and their eternal duty as the backbone of abyss repelling. (Abyss monsters also remind force of chaos in Warhammer, as lizardmen do their duty repelling against them for many millenium) These songs struck through my mind when I play Total War Warhammer III as lizardmen again. PS : Genshin Impact reminds me so similar themes of Warhammer Fantasy. Mondstadt and Fontaine remind The Empire and Bretonnia, Liyue reminds Grand Cathay, Inazuma reminds Nippon(There is none in TWWIII), Sumeru remind Araby(Which comes from the mod for the said game)and Tomb King (Related with desert region) and the upcoming Snezchnaya also reminds Kislev undoubtedly
First song is inspire by caravan. At least to me... For those that don't know the song caravan, i wholeheartly recommend the movie whiplash. Such a amazing movie.

Natlan themes can pass from the most happily, moving osts to the most terrifying things. I suggest you watch "No one fights Alone"! (Uploaded by "How are you today?") It holds the Ode of Resurrection ost but in a more orchestrated way and maybe you may like it :D
Here’s a list of the non-standard percussion instruments I could pick out and those credited in the OST: - Cajon - Conga - Bongos - Cabasa - Maracas - Calabash/Gourd drum - Rainsticks - Djembe - Talking drum - Dunun - Udu - Marimba - Balafon - Mbira - Steelpan - Hang/handpan There may be more I couldn’t pick up on. But safe to say, the range of percussions utilized here is just as, if not more diverse than the string and wind instruments used.
Natlan's battle themes all have such a good vibe, I'm actually loving casual battles in open world because of those. Guess they had to compensate the fact you have to leave all those little saurian orphans... :(
Hey Marco, I was wondering if you were going to listen to any more Limbus Company Music in the future? the new Cantos and Intervallos have some really good music of many genres, such as jazz, dubstep, flamenco, and electro swing.
Yay part 2! This music is really super interesting and in some ways feels on another level to some of the other music within the game. Does this music make you want to play the archon quest or explore the area?... .because for me it's super inviting and intriguing!
Sir id like to ask this. I sing mainly the same style as you(you can check the Scaramouche Cover of mine) This year i plan to start practicing mixing and Arranging orchestration myself I need your advice on equipment Like headphone Should i go for MDR 7506, ATH M50x, or DT 990 Thankyou
Ey dont forget to react best earie music in natlan Grim Is the Night • Night's Trial Battle Theme (In Battle), its been a while honestly we get this kind of deep earie music
I don't remember if you listened to the Children of the Echoes music last time you did this video... But I feel like that music has way too a distinct a beat that's front and centre which makes me can't help but just get up and dance to it.
29:30 lots of those theme song will make more sense the moment you will see those regions/tribes ingame +/- learn a bit of them. That's the magic of Genshin. Music is amazing but the moment you can combine it with either scenery or history of region or character tied to it it hits 2x harder when you listen to it. I kinda hope that at some point you will return to Genshin either for exploration + music + vibes or for the Main Story experience
I think the reason he hasn't reacted to the main theme for the first time is because he already lostened to it, just didn't record it I'm not sure though
23:24 theme its the best and emotional for me, it made me cry i dont know why😢 but i love all themes, genshin has the better game ost music (in my opinion); greetings marco ✌️😉❤
I love watching these, getting actual professional analysing the music and explaining it to numnuts like myself. I also recently noticed Girls Frontline 2 Exilium is soon getting its global release. Girls Frontline, the first game has some great songs, I'm currently trying to find a good playlist but if I'm unable I have to create one myself. In the meanwhile I recently found something good that gives very good look into the game and it's characters. Though these ones are fan made, still good reaction material: ruclips.net/p/PLborOVqX9fsn2iVsSoaZc8NAxD7GJUHTP&si=ncAxnGcEv1gh_OX0 P.S. keep up the great work 🤘
sadly i did not realize the album was on its way out so I still didn't have working titles when I filmed this! Which tracks did I miss? Also let's do a live stream to listen to the rest!
It's okay, i recommend still listening to the tracks on your own tho, since the official releases tend to either have higher quality or are mixed differently
I would highly recommend A Distant Farewell, its a very "simple" piece but gosh its effective.
The titles of the tracks in order
Venture of Tonalamatl
Heights of Rumikunamanta
A Night of their Own
Glow of Nawpa Pacha
The Nocturnal Firmament's Luster
Feast and Bounty
Eventide Chant
Chasing Flames Like Strings
Bequeathed to the Beloved
...Times Come Again No More
Baba we Twasali
...Makani 'olu'olu
Foundry of the Golden
From the ones you haven't listened yet (i think?), my favorites are:
Chasing the Rainbow - used for Subway Surfers like gameplay in the game
Grim Is the Night - basically a battle theme for Night Trials
Reminiscent of the Stolen Flame - a domain OST
Whistles of Monetoo - Toyac Springs OST but also canonically played by one of the local legends that you can fight in the open world
Metaphor for Calamity - basically Capitano's theme
Inheritance of an Ancient Name - Story exclusive track i believe
Moment of Solace - also story exclusive track
Sifu Moto - Scions of Canopy, Night
I think it'd be better for future patches to wait for official release, so that you get the full experience!
They are usually released 4-5 weeks after the patch release
I love how vocal-heavy this soundtrack is in comparison to the rest of Genshin, while yet still feeling wild and organic and very rural
Ya I like this too
ye i was scared it wasnt gonna be like genshin but the way they used it is much better than i expected
Next time you check out natlan’s ost, you have to check out metaphor for calamity. It’s capitano’s theme and is a really cool piano piece
oh thank you i missed this!
Was gonna say! Very simple yet powerful piece
Yes!!
His theme is amazing
Really giving Evil Morty vibe, or an unimaginable horror because he's a zombie
That theme kinda sounds like a variation of Moonlight Sonata 1st movement and i love it.
The number of times when I'm exploring Natlan that I just went "Damn, what a music..." The more than 70 tracks in the new album were really worth the listen.

@@KyrBear can’t deny how nice it was searching for occuli
Marco! so glad to see you react to the Natlan soundtrack, feels me with joy hehe
Ah yes "next song", my favorite ost
just the name itself made me cry, “next song” resonates with my deeply, it reminds me of when i was a child, by best friend was named next song. Next song in-five-seconds… to be exact 😢
Spare him. He didn't have a track list yet lol
Whole natlan ost basically, yes we are on war... But we never forget to having fun!
And then “A sad succumber to death” kicks in
latin america is very similar to that funny enough too. we could be having the absolute worst things happening but we WILL find a way to still party that same night
@@justsomeguy727 So true
I'm Brazilian and I can confirm

The theme of the ancestral temple is inspired by indigenous music, especially Aztec.
Wonderful content, I wonder if you can do a ranking of a Nation's theme
what a nice idea. I think that would be fun!
I love your videos so much, Marco! Thank you for making them!
Some have complained about the music, they better don’t travel to South America, best music in the game thus far by far
Natlan is the first nation where i play unmuted and actively run around and take my time with quests, instead of teleporting. I got xilonen and skating along the path through the natlan sceenery gives me an incredible sense of peace!
Nice catch of sense. Music of Natlan is mainly about vibe
"Fog of the Seasons" is one of my favorites that you didn't cover - for context It's one of the Night themes, but it's also the very first track that plays in game after the player makes a long (and completely silent) trek from Sumeru to Natlan. I think it's pretty emblematic of the nation.
It plays during day too
Battle theme 3 is latin jazz through and through, clear references and inspiration from "Caravan"
Yes! Finally someone gets it. I'm Cuban and our music sounds so much like Battle Theme 3 and it makes me nostalgic.
been really enjoying the Natlan music, it's really good
natlan music easy to listening & nice vibes..
Love the video :) I am always astonished at how Hoyo-mix can combine such varied cultural inspirations and instruments and make it sound cohesive in the overall message of their pieces, truly masters of the craft.

natlan archon quest you will cry and music is next level support in moments
HoYo-Mix absolutely crushed it with Natlan's OST. Easily one of the most special and distinct batch of music they've released.
I know you don't play Genshin as much recently, but I know you'd love Natlan's exploration!
It’s tempting!
everybody loves when Photon of Fluctuation comes on
Photon of Fluctuation my beloved

Oh hell yeah , genshin ost videos are always a blast to watch and listen,
Please do more 🙏🙏💙
While some of the tracks lean more towards ambience, I have had the melodies stuck in my head for a while now.

You're welcome 😊
I spend all day humming Natlan's songs.
To me the Eventide Chant is THE theme of Natlan. I will go about my day happily humming this.
Turning off music in game? Noooo, that would be like turning off half the game, that's so stupid
you'd be surprised.
Many streamers usually does it
@@MarcoMeatball I usually turn off whatever else I had on when I log into genshin, that sound is just too good to ignore
Glad you're doing more Genshin music! Keep up the good work!
natlan has one of the most fun sounding tracks as well as absolute gut punches... the ode of ressurection is an emotion -- god!
Man i love the Natlan songs. Real vibe checks
"Campa timoyetzticah, Cempaxochitl?" is one of my favorite tracks from Natlan
I know this is your second video about Natlan but I think I need to watch a conversation between Marco, @ludofonia (from Chile) and @AlphaWolfRadioWithEdygrimDJ (from Kenya) to go to Natlan feelings and roots
Great video as always. Btw check out crystal of abyss from the raiden v ost, you definitely wont regret it. Its composed by the guy who did rykards theme from ER.
WAKE UP NEW MARCO GENSHIN VIDEO
Natlan city at night theme reminds me of Liyue at night and in the morning themes, gentle and peaceful, no shady stuff going on here like in Fontaine and port Osmos, no epic deeds like in Inazuma city or Sumeru city, just a city peacefully slumbering, confident in being protected.
Glad to listen to your thoughts on the natlan ost! It's always nice to see your reaction videos. Would you react to any of the new character demos/the music?
Thanks for the video. I really like Natlan's music for its warmth, lightness, reflection of nature and traditions. Very beautiful. I hope that you will listen to the themes from update 5.1. In cinematics (and the sequel after them), the Ode of resurrection was very beautifully redone. It sounds very epic.
battle theme 3 is surprisingly brazilian to me. in a good way.
For a nation constantly at war they sure know how to have fun with their music
Love your reaction ,you should check out metaphor for calamity ( capitano theme) keep up the good work ❤
15:01 this one gives me lion king vibes,which makes me feel nostalgic for some reason
Every time I log out of Genshin I go back to Scions of Canopy and listen to its 3 tracks. I really like them so much 😊
Also, it's good to see you back again Marco
Hi :)
I think a great one to listen to would be “helgast march”
Que impresionantes las canciones que esta haciendo genshin últimamente. El tema de combate tipo salsa es genial 🔥🔥
Natlan region with those people reminds Lustria with lizardmen in Warhammer Fantasy universe, both share the similar theme, tradition, supremacy and their eternal duty as the backbone of abyss repelling. (Abyss monsters also remind force of chaos in Warhammer, as lizardmen do their duty repelling against them for many millenium) These songs struck through my mind when I play Total War Warhammer III as lizardmen again.
PS : Genshin Impact reminds me so similar themes of Warhammer Fantasy. Mondstadt and Fontaine remind The Empire and Bretonnia, Liyue reminds Grand Cathay, Inazuma reminds Nippon(There is none in TWWIII), Sumeru remind Araby(Which comes from the mod for the said game)and Tomb King (Related with desert region) and the upcoming Snezchnaya also reminds Kislev undoubtedly
13:36 This part is so similar to the melody we hear in the Natlan trailer, around the part where Mavuika is introduced!
First song is inspire by caravan. At least to me...
For those that don't know the song caravan, i wholeheartly recommend the movie whiplash. Such a amazing movie.

Natlan themes can pass from the most happily, moving osts to the most terrifying things. I suggest you watch "No one fights Alone"! (Uploaded by "How are you today?") It holds the Ode of Resurrection ost but in a more orchestrated way and maybe you may like it :D
Omg i LOVE Natlan music so much ❤❤❤
Here’s a list of the non-standard percussion instruments I could pick out and those credited in the OST:
- Cajon
- Conga
- Bongos
- Cabasa
- Maracas
- Calabash/Gourd drum
- Rainsticks
- Djembe
- Talking drum
- Dunun
- Udu
- Marimba
- Balafon
- Mbira
- Steelpan
- Hang/handpan
There may be more I couldn’t pick up on. But safe to say, the range of percussions utilized here is just as, if not more diverse than the string and wind instruments used.
My Favorite Natlan Ost Right now is (No one Fight alone) uff its Hits
Marcooo! i genuinely would LOVE to hear your reaction to Arknights's current event theme lobby OST, from the Event called "Babel" It's SOOO GOOD!
Natlan's battle themes all have such a good vibe, I'm actually loving casual battles in open world because of those. Guess they had to compensate the fact you have to leave all those little saurian orphans... :(
Yeah Hoyoverse is a Music company that happened to make game lol😂
Have you checked out Honkai StarRail’s Sunday’s Boss theme?? It’s SO GOOD!! 😊
Hey Marco, I was wondering if you were going to listen to any more Limbus Company Music in the future? the new Cantos and Intervallos have some really good music of many genres, such as jazz, dubstep, flamenco, and electro swing.
Yay part 2! This music is really super interesting and in some ways feels on another level to some of the other music within the game. Does this music make you want to play the archon quest or explore the area?... .because for me it's super inviting and intriguing!
It does make me want to load it up for sure
Sir id like to ask this.
I sing mainly the same style as you(you can check the Scaramouche Cover of mine)
This year i plan to start practicing mixing and Arranging orchestration myself
I need your advice on equipment
Like headphone Should i go for
MDR 7506, ATH M50x, or DT 990
Thankyou
Now that’s a nice content to wake up to 😊
Ey dont forget to react best earie music in natlan Grim Is the Night • Night's Trial Battle Theme (In Battle), its been a while honestly we get this kind of deep earie music
That battle theme sounds more like a festival than combat.
Also, Xilonen character trailer music became a little banger. It's very unusual and very modern
29:38 people from Hawaii gonna be pissed lol
Battle theme 3 never fails to hype me up
I sure wonder if Marco is gonna use the word "effervescent" at all in this video, hmm
I don't remember if you listened to the Children of the Echoes music last time you did this video... But I feel like that music has way too a distinct a beat that's front and centre which makes me can't help but just get up and dance to it.
29:30 lots of those theme song will make more sense the moment you will see those regions/tribes ingame +/- learn a bit of them. That's the magic of Genshin. Music is amazing but the moment you can combine it with either scenery or history of region or character tied to it it hits 2x harder when you listen to it.
I kinda hope that at some point you will return to Genshin either for exploration + music + vibes or for the Main Story experience
I honestly don't understand people who turn off the game music. Way to ruin an experience and listen to unrelated "pop" stuff.
Please listen to the vocal tracks next especially natlan's main theme which reccurs in many variations throughout the story.
I think the reason he hasn't reacted to the main theme for the first time is because he already lostened to it, just didn't record it
I'm not sure though
12:50 this ost is like happy ending scene
You should react to the genshin passing memories animation. The song used is so fuckkkinggg gooooood.
waiting for your stream :)
Will you react to the Character demos from Natlan?
I don’t think so - priority is in game music here for this particular setting
Love your content, Marco!. Please do a reaction to Sett's theme from League of Legends. Thanks
18:02 Tepeacac Rise night version lowkey sounds like "the liooon sleeeps toniiiiightttt"
Hoyoverse is actually a jazz company disguised as a videogame company
Day 35 of asking Marco to listen to "In Hell We Live, Lament" from Mili for the indie game Limbus Company
GI is still the gacha game with the best music quality
Es un hermosa armonía que se escucha tan exquisito y diverso me fascina
Podrias reaccionar al tema del campeón teemo de league of legenda
23:24 theme its the best and emotional for me, it made me cry i dont know why😢 but i love all themes, genshin has the better game ost music (in my opinion); greetings marco ✌️😉❤
Hi Marco, can you react to the Babylon Project: Sturmbringer OST? It's from the new Halloween Event in World of Tanks
I love watching these, getting actual professional analysing the music and explaining it to numnuts like myself.
I also recently noticed Girls Frontline 2 Exilium is soon getting its global release. Girls Frontline, the first game has some great songs, I'm currently trying to find a good playlist but if I'm unable I have to create one myself. In the meanwhile I recently found something good that gives very good look into the game and it's characters. Though these ones are fan made, still good reaction material:

P.S. keep up the great work 🤘
12:50 this sound looks familiar in genshin from liyue region but idk
What about medieval total war soundtrack?
