    Currently reading A Court of Thorns and Roses and this music threads in so beautifully with every single page I read. The music activates my imagination into life and I'm not sitting here in this bedroom anymore but far away in another time and place full of magic.

    I choose to not spend time on much exploration when it comes to music, so I somewhat built this nature of being able to have consistent long-term stimulation just from a few songs. I encountered this video on accidental autoplay, and I'm delighted. I'm an aspiring programmer and fantasy novelist, and this definitely suits the latter. I probed more about what you do, and you seem very talented. I'm actually surprised that Skyrim has a heavy impact on you, because it does on me too! I've had it since a couple weeks after its release (I was only 8), my brother introduced me to it. The concept, design, and most importantly the philosophies it had stuck to me more than any other game could. Due to personal events & reasons, I resonate deeply with Paarthunax's "What is better, to be born good? Or to overcome your evil nature through great effort." I digress heavily, but yeah, I saw that you made Skyrim-inspired music too. The style of music invoked this sense of post-destruction and revitalization, where dragons stopped being a threat, the Thalmor recently exiled which allowed full self-determination to Skyrim's people, Ravenrock becoming a popular exporter, Argonians no longer under strict segregation, essentially the inception of a thriving Skyrim.
    I appreciate your work. I followed you on Bandcamp though I can't support you just yet, I've just established a new roadmap since I can't sustain college anymore, but in around a year, assuming no heavy interference, I'll be complete with enough bootcamps/projects to finally start working and providing for my own which thereafter, I'll be glad to support you. Sorry for the lengthy comment, I'm not strong on condensing alike messages that retains its substance.

    • @jacobmcnatt
      @jacobmcnatt  Год назад +4

      Hey, I really appreciate that, and I'm so glad you're enjoying the music! Thanks so much for listening and commenting (and for the follow) 😁 Music in RPG's like Skyrim, Oblivion, and World of Warcraft really shaped my musical tastes when it comes to fantasy music. I'm a huge fan of music that works within the context of the sound design and visuals but also has the character to stand on its own without being too overbearing. I definitely feel like Skyrim is one of a very few games that have nailed that.
      I'm so happy that it helps you in your writing and your worldbuilding. That's all I could ever hope for. Appreciate the kind words, and happy listening!

It's evil poison", "If you continue to enthrall yourself in stuff like this, then life will continue to pass by" & most importantly: "Living in a imagination world is not something a kid like you should be doing. Dreaming keeps you from seeing what's in front of you".👒🗡️🐉🏴‍☠️👍
