@@supraed9026 I just wish there was a more compelling reason to play when you run out of resin, chasing chests is not my thoughts on a fun time to spend time, would love it if we actually do "quests" or "commissions" for the adventurers guild past the daily commissions, you know? like going out to clear hillichurl camps or gathering items, something to make it feel more like an adventurers guild ya know? The rewards don't even have to be that much, heck i wouldn't mind if they were basically "chests" except you know you actually had things to do other than running around the open world just looking for chests to open.
This theme is illegal. It's so fucking good. Fought Dvalin for the second time after reaching AR 25 and my ears were in heaven. The song is amazing. I can't focus on the gameplay of Genshin Impact because the music is just as, or even better then the gameplay.
Whenever I fight Dvalin, the soundtrack makes me emotional. But what destroys my soul is how hurt Dvalin's roars sound. I expected a thick, throaty and scary growl from it. But what I got was a thin, heartfelt cry. The way he shakes his head and screams like that, and also having the Abyss Order's lies to corrupt him into thinking that everyone betrayed him and absolutely no one loved him slapped me like my father did when I was 11. Venti's words after he found Dvalin's tears, the poisonous thing on his neck that gives him a lot of pain, how he tried to protect Mondstadt aganist Durin in Dragonspine and got so injured poisoned by its blood in the process that he had to fall in a deep slumber to heal... He finally gains his freedom as a dragon and flies around Mondstadt at the end of the prologue. He's finally free of the lies of the order, the poison, and now he can do whatever he wants. He is not a part of the 4 winds anymore, but he would still do anything to protect Mondstadt. Bro... I'm gonna cry
****1:25** hits** Why am I getting emotional? It's not like Dvalin is hurting after feeling betrayed and lost after all those years without Barbatos' guidance and now his avatar Venti has come to make amends but he's too hurt and confused and corrupted to get out of the labyrinth that is the sadness in his heart and mind and now Barbatos has come to end his suffering but **sobs** I'm not crying, you are ( ⚈̥̥̥̥̥́⌢⚈̥̥̥̥̥̀)
(Spoiler Warning) To think the first region sets the theme of the story up so perfectly... This fight to re-unite Venti and Dvalin is the theme of our character and their Twin as well. Since this fight had such dramatic meaning, not just for Venti and Dvalin, but for the Hero as well... I imagine it HAD to be this good. Also to note: This main character isn't fighting to save the world. They are desperately looking for the Sister/Brother that was taken from them in the very beginning, meaning that all their main reasons, actions, and reactions are effected by loss. So considering the reason, the struggle to save Dvalin and re-unite him with Venti was very personal for even our character.
You know this is a spoiler but it’s fine because why would people go on this song for no reason. I think they wanted details about the story from comments and you did a very good job explaining what happens.
Listen to this theme with earbuds and take one out. You'll notice that the voices are separated, and you can vaguely hear the other, although distantly. One calls out and the other answers. It makes me think this is almost indefinitely a metaphor for Venti and Dvalin.
It's crazy how far we've come. We went from the first boss being near pure orchestra to the latest boss's second phase having no orchestra. The threats have just been getting higher and higher. Dvalin will always have a special place in my heart for being such a spectacular introduction to this game's bosses
this clearly show some kind of sadness about the music, how dvaling is suffering, and clearly dont want to harm anyone, how he was manipulated and suffered because of it really got pity of him
Most of the thing I heard from this song is the Stormterror’s rage and anger over his betrayal. The vocal is used to express his rage and anger, while the background plays his sadness emotion.
The style the song is playing is similar to some Korean/ Japanese orchestral music that are being played in drama movie. These songs are usually play inna very dramatic setting in the movie.
Just fought Stormterror yesterday. Simply epic. No Venti, no 5star chars or weapons. Just Noelle, Amber and Barbara for healing. Just felt right having the Favonius fighting off the local threat by themselves.
1:25 When you don't want to fight, and neither does your enemy. But there are no words left, and all that remains is the tragedy of naked blades, the bloodshed that was always going to come. There was never any avoiding this. Fight well; it's all you can do now.
Which is true there never really was any way to avoid a fight with dvalin you had to get those corrupted crystals off him somehow and he wasn't just gonna let you
@@jikap And now, they got Tokyo Philharmonic doing the music for Inazuma! Gotta appreciate Genshin's efforts to bring a lot of talented people in the limelight.
They perfectly captured the powerful, but sad vibes that dvalin gives off. Like, you can sense that this thing is trying to kill you, but is tortured while trying to do so.
I don’t even hate the game itself, I hate the community. In one round, some stupid children cheated with Skype and called me a noob for expecting them to play fair. In the second round, a bunch of dumbasses voted me off for reporting the body. These all happened in a single row. For a game that’s supposed to be about “1000 IQ deception plays”, the community sure has a lot of f**king idiots with their IQ in negative digits.
the whole Old Mondstadt atmosphere was deeply emphasized by the music. not much actually happens in the quest, but the ruins definitely felt like a lot of things *had* happened in there
One thing many people will miss in this OST is the rhythmic tick in the background of the song... I just heard it for the first time today with my headphones
The fact the song itself is a masterpiece for many reasons. One reason being is that the OST itself signifies Dvalin's pain and suffering as he struggles. I'm telling you every song Genshin makes is so symbolic and perfect.
I love how the song starts with 7 beats in a measure and slowly spreads out measures with 7 beats throughout the remainder of it while it becomes increasingly less common. Great touch.
0:00 Dvalin's loneliness and pain 1:25 Venti's attempt to save Dvalin 1:55 Dvalin's rage and his attack on Mondstadt 2:27 Traveler, Jean, and Diluc join in to save Dvalin
1:25 best part, the vocals here are super beautiful and fitting to the music and gives that "suffering" atmosphere, as in how Dvalin is suffering in the story because of the unintentional evil he's been getting
one thing memorable about these kind of games are their incredible themes, and if you stopped playing for years or when the game is finished, nostalgia will somehow hit you like a train, and it's gonna be the best and worst feeling in the world.
Unless another game's soundtrack blows me away this year, Genshin Impact, a f2p open world gacha game, is *Best Score/Music of the year 2020* for me. *Edit: Sadly it wasn't nominated for best score. It was beat out by The Last of Us Part II, Doom Eternal, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, FF7 Remake, and Hades. _Genshin Impact was nominated for best mobile GOTY and best Role-Playing game though.
idk it depends if you count some xenoblade chronicles definitive edition as a game (or even persona 5 r). There's a lot of good video game ost. However it there were to be a best mobile game award, Genshin would probably win
@@theolegrand6657 Well I meant for this year specifically. I don't mean the best video game osts *ever* made. Persona 5 R came out 2019 but the original game came out 2016. XC Definitive came out this year but the original came out 2010/2011. I actually love both the osts of those games a lot! But yeah for _this_ year, 2020 I think Genshin Impact wins. The only game I'm really looking out for is Cyberpunk 2077 like someone else suggested above. But the music genres are both wildely different, I think I will always prefer Genshin's over Cyberpunk's even if it is great because I'm not very much a punk rock kind of person ^^
@@sanae99.9.9 Same. But I did not know that you could climb on Stormterror without taking damage until I looked up the Wiki for tactics. I just let Noelle spin around until Stormterror gets up again.
People say mondstat was the worst region , i disagree highly. People want to argue it was boring and mundane but the simplicity is what got me hooked. Such a beautiful area , and you fight a dragon ? Teaming up with jean ,venti , diluc, was awesome . Idc. Mondstat will forever be my favorite region
Close your eyes and think about the underlying cause for the fight. It isnt to defeat some big bad threat. It isnt to vanquish some evil force. Its to help someone(thing) understand that we arent there to kill or hurt it. We're there to save it. Think of how sad Venti is when he sees the tears, how destraught Jean is as a devotee to the god and all things anemo, how our character understands the bond between them and the need to fix it, how we're just trying to cleanse it. I have a love hate relationship with the memories of fighting it. I love it because its such an easy fight no matter what difficulty you have it on but i hate it because of the meanings and the deepness and the pain. When windblume came around this year i got excited seeing this as one of the songs but the first time i played it i messed up because i started crying. Dvalin, Venti, the knights, the traveler, all of the first "act" is filled with pain and agony and loss and just... Its a lot. I have just about 15 accounts for the game. Every time i go to fight Dvalin for the first time i cry. Everytime i cry out that im not trying to hurt him. Everytime i have to watch as i hurt him. Ventis cry out of "JUST LISTEN TO ME" gets me everytime.
The absolutely godly melody line(which, I'm not sure, but I'm almost 100% convinced it's just a really fast organ) on top of the strings is just... wow. Everything in this is mind-blowing. But then again, genshin is one of those games where sometimes my dumb ass has to pause all the gameplay, like physically make my character stop walking so that I can listen to the music. It's like that. It just catches you off guard. I remember times where I just went like "Wow. Wow. What the fuck".
Epic does not describe this song. There are so many things that are packed in this song. You can hear the Stormterror’s rage and anger. There are so many emotions expressed in this song, but most of them talks about sadness.
1:55 for me it's this part, don't get me wrong I love the vocals alot, but the woodwinds here are on spot. As someone who's been playing in an orchestra for quite a while now, I would love to play this
So....Magnificant. It still just blows me away the budget they put into a f2p game, even with the projected revenue from gatcha system. They went full-tilt on the quality of EVERYTHING this game offers. This track is a testament to that fact. Bravo MiHoYo. Hats off to this masterpiece.
It has already recouped its development cost, don't feel sorry for them. Game is amazing, monetization is terrible, and is a unapologetic rip off of BOTW with streamlined mechanics and waifus. This game reflects the Chinese gaming development/market so much to me, at least in triple AAA games that it's frustrating: amazing talents that don't have any saying in the products creation, of studios clinging to successful formulas instead of creating something truly unique, of amazing games with ruthless P2W MTX.
@@Xsoskeleton still high risk, you know how many mobile games just gets released and no one even plays it and dies, i don't play honkai and i went to listen the rosemary theme music and it was great as well
@@JKMT Honestly i dont evne care about the monetary design, its just mihoyo did that and there it goes kind of thing. Sure genshin is a bit bland now but it doesnt change the fact that you're not spending money for moving PNG image at least xddd
Love the 6/8-7/8 alternating time signature at the start (or maybe the composer wrote in 13/8?) up till 0:54 where it settles into 6/8, and the throwback to the shifting time signature at 2:57! Yu-Peng Chen seems to like employing this style to create a sense of tension and unease, which he also uses in the other epic boss fights e.g. Osial (Vortex): 5/8 throughout, then alternating 5/8-7/8 before settling into 4/4. Really exhilarating!
@@Fernando-xr4wb This track specifically sounds like a song from it though. Especially with the background women notes. I dont think they were comparing the osts as a whole.
Oh it very specifically seems inspired by tracks from the Nier games with hints of Grandma and Song of the Ancients. 2:16 seems plucked right out of Nier! (check 2:16, the exact same time) in Wretched Automatons - ruclips.net/video/YoLrFxUbgjw/видео.html )
I heard this fucking banger ost in a french TVshow about cakes I was like what the actual fuck why is there dvalin genshin impact on a bakery contest show
I sense so much sadness in Dvalin while listening to this while fighting him. It's so damn beautiful. This here is a combination of beauty and tragedy. I need to cover this song soon. I think the time signature is 6/8, am I counting it right?
@@ZanderShepard more and more i keep loving this game. Not just in the music, but the entirety of it. Such a good fucking game, in fact this might be the best game i've ever played.
Sometimes I imagine that as this is the first song we hear from a boss, we will hear it again with mixes from the other nations but in the last boss before leaving teyvat
I'm like 3 hours before my deadline, and this song is making the situation way more intense. I suddenly rush my works and just trying to get it done in like 30 mins.
Oh wow, I didn't know this was performed by the London Philharmonic! Mihoyo really is not cutting any corners with this game. can't believe it's free to play

No they hired the Shanghai philharmonic
@@SasukeUchiha-tc9xx They hired both, London philharmonic did the mondstadt music, Shanghai philharmonic did the Liyue music.
@@jikap And now, they got Tokyo Philharmonic doing the music for Inazuma! Gotta appreciate Genshin's efforts to bring a lot of talented people in the limelight.
They perfectly captured the powerful, but sad vibes that dvalin gives off. Like, you can sense that this thing is trying to kill you, but is tortured while trying to do so.
And yet they gave mobile game of the year to Among Us.
Fucking Among Us.
I don’t even hate the game itself, I hate the community. In one round, some stupid children cheated with Skype and called me a noob for expecting them to play fair. In the second round, a bunch of dumbasses voted me off for reporting the body. These all happened in a single row. For a game that’s supposed to be about “1000 IQ deception plays”, the community sure has a lot of f**king idiots with their IQ in negative digits.
amog us when the impostor is sus!😳
its an ok game i don't like their community
You seem kinda sus

the whole Old Mondstadt atmosphere was deeply emphasized by the music. not much actually happens in the quest, but the ruins definitely felt like a lot of things *had* happened in there
1:25 Is so heartbreakingly beautiful, it makes me genuinely emotional
One thing many people will miss in this OST is the rhythmic tick in the background of the song... I just heard it for the first time today with my headphones

Such boss fight and theme for the gaming! It is already a classic.
you can really feel dvalin's sadness in this theme
Reading all the old 3yo comments is so nostalgic
Random Guy:
IS THIS A FINAL BOSS THEME?
Me:
Yes it is, it's the Final Boss Theme, the Prologue Final Boss Theme
I'm sure the final boss is either the mysterious god or the traveler's twin
@@disappear2686 It could be Paimon who knows?
"This is not even my final form-- I mean boss!"
@@disappear2686 it could be dainsleif
@@disappear2686 i think the same, btw that god looks like god mode Kiana from Honkai Impact
Hands down best boss theme by far
I miss the early days of genshin, this song is so nostalgic😭 4 years already??
The fact the song itself is a masterpiece for many reasons. One reason being is that the OST itself signifies Dvalin's pain and suffering as he struggles. I'm telling you every song Genshin makes is so symbolic and perfect.
I love how the song starts with 7 beats in a measure and slowly spreads out measures with 7 beats throughout the remainder of it while it becomes increasingly less common. Great touch.
I’m a HSR player, but damn Genshin knocks it out the park with their OST
Am I the only one getting those insane Nier Automata ost vibes especially from 1:24 ????? damn pure banger
Тоже напомнило
They pretty much just copied it
@@entiretinofsweetcorn7025 not really tbh

"Dvalin surely has a strange taste to name things."
@@KarmaDream7 "I just named it now."
one thing memorable about these kind of games are their incredible themes, and if you stopped playing for years or when the game is finished, nostalgia will somehow hit you like a train, and it's gonna be the best and worst feeling in the world.
Unless another game's soundtrack blows me away this year, Genshin Impact, a f2p open world gacha game, is *Best Score/Music of the year 2020* for me.
*Edit: Sadly it wasn't nominated for best score. It was beat out by The Last of Us Part II, Doom Eternal, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, FF7 Remake, and Hades. _Genshin Impact was nominated for best mobile GOTY and best Role-Playing game though.
Fully agreed. I have not heard such brilliant music in a long time. Let's see what Cyberpunk has to offer and will it live up to its hype?
@@EatingWaffles but don't forget that we only taste 2/7 of the Tevyat music... and they can always add more music in future events
idk it depends if you count some xenoblade chronicles definitive edition as a game (or even persona 5 r). There's a lot of good video game ost. However it there were to be a best mobile game award, Genshin would probably win
@@theolegrand6657 Well I meant for this year specifically. I don't mean the best video game osts *ever* made. Persona 5 R came out 2019 but the original game came out 2016. XC Definitive came out this year but the original came out 2010/2011. I actually love both the osts of those games a lot! But yeah for _this_ year, 2020 I think Genshin Impact wins. The only game I'm really looking out for is Cyberpunk 2077 like someone else suggested above. But the music genres are both wildely different, I think I will always prefer Genshin's over Cyberpunk's even if it is great because I'm not very much a punk rock kind of person ^^
I was gonna recommend Ghost of Tsushima music until I fully read what you said ☹️
ah... I remember the days when dvalin, andrius, and childe were the hardest enemies in the game
You better the kidding, lol, I done them all first try back in the day, they were never hard.
@@kobiblade same with me..? But yknow, at that time, these bosses were the "hardest" among all the enemies we encountered🤷🏻♀️
When Stormterror is on 10% HP, you used up most of your consumables and you're on your last character, then suddenly your battery dies.
The rest of GI players: *laughs in PC and PS4*
cant be me i didnt even need to eat to beat stormterror
@@StabberiiYT Me too, but not after looking up the strategy on the wiki :p
I can solo him with only Noelle. She is like unkillable (of course with Barbara heal).
@@sanae99.9.9 Same. But I did not know that you could climb on Stormterror without taking damage until I looked up the Wiki for tactics. I just let Noelle spin around until Stormterror gets up again.
If this plays when the siblings reunited, it will be very emotional.
That moment when the aaaAAOOOaaoooAaOoo hits just right is so good
I FORGOT HOW GOOD THIS THEME IS HOLY SHIT
I look forward every week to fight Dvalin just to hear this music.
I fight him for fun. Who needs rewards when you get an experience B)
A tad too late, but you can fight Dvalin without opening the rewards. That way you can challenge him as much as you want :)
People say mondstat was the worst region , i disagree highly.
People want to argue it was boring and mundane but the simplicity is what got me hooked.
Such a beautiful area , and you fight a dragon ? Teaming up with jean ,venti , diluc, was awesome .
Idc. Mondstat will forever be my favorite region
cant believe its been more than 2 years since then, time flies so fast..
Genshin Impact shows to what an extent music makes a game amazing
The time when most comments are 5y old, it is the time when nostalgia hit like a train
Remember me
Me too
I can only hear the ticking as that dang typewriter now lmao
Close your eyes and think about the underlying cause for the fight. It isnt to defeat some big bad threat. It isnt to vanquish some evil force. Its to help someone(thing) understand that we arent there to kill or hurt it. We're there to save it. Think of how sad Venti is when he sees the tears, how destraught Jean is as a devotee to the god and all things anemo, how our character understands the bond between them and the need to fix it, how we're just trying to cleanse it. I have a love hate relationship with the memories of fighting it. I love it because its such an easy fight no matter what difficulty you have it on but i hate it because of the meanings and the deepness and the pain. When windblume came around this year i got excited seeing this as one of the songs but the first time i played it i messed up because i started crying. Dvalin, Venti, the knights, the traveler, all of the first "act" is filled with pain and agony and loss and just... Its a lot. I have just about 15 accounts for the game. Every time i go to fight Dvalin for the first time i cry. Everytime i cry out that im not trying to hurt him. Everytime i have to watch as i hurt him. Ventis cry out of "JUST LISTEN TO ME" gets me everytime.
The one time where I feel bad for the boss. Remember that the entire time that Dvalin was brainwashed by the abyss order, he was in terrible pain
The hardest part of fighting this boss is the reluctance of ending the song.
The absolutely godly melody line(which, I'm not sure, but I'm almost 100% convinced it's just a really fast organ) on top of the strings is just... wow. Everything in this is mind-blowing. But then again, genshin is one of those games where sometimes my dumb ass has to pause all the gameplay, like physically make my character stop walking so that I can listen to the music. It's like that. It just catches you off guard. I remember times where I just went like "Wow. Wow. What the fuck".
Epic does not describe this song. There are so many things that are packed in this song. You can hear the Stormterror’s rage and anger. There are so many emotions expressed in this song, but most of them talks about sadness.
The singing that slowly fades in is so good.. It adds so much to an already powerful theme. Incredible work from Yu-Peng for composing this piece!
This shit was like in the first patch of the game. And they got it right first try ffs, that's what you call a boss soundtrack.
What I hear every Monday morning
1:55 for me it's this part, don't get me wrong I love the vocals alot, but the woodwinds here are on spot. As someone who's been playing in an orchestra for quite a while now, I would love to play this
I always love how he uses Caelestinum FInale Termini the vocals start to act up. always makes it feel extra deadly, even though it definitely isn't.
So....Magnificant. It still just blows me away the budget they put into a f2p game, even with the projected revenue from gatcha system. They went full-tilt on the quality of EVERYTHING this game offers. This track is a testament to that fact. Bravo MiHoYo. Hats off to this masterpiece.
tbh you wont be surprised if u see how hard Whales are spending in honkai,
It has already recouped its development cost, don't feel sorry for them. Game is amazing, monetization is terrible, and is a unapologetic rip off of BOTW with streamlined mechanics and waifus. This game reflects the Chinese gaming development/market so much to me, at least in triple AAA games that it's frustrating: amazing talents that don't have any saying in the products creation, of studios clinging to successful formulas instead of creating something truly unique, of amazing games with ruthless P2W MTX.

yeah the music of all the game is outstanding to the point i dont kill the last slime to hear the masterpiece music
This song is beautiful and the battle itself is well designed. Only seeing good things from genshin so far.
still my favorite boss theme!
I come back here because of clorinde theme (version trailer) has some melody of this track in it XD
Love the 6/8-7/8 alternating time signature at the start (or maybe the composer wrote in 13/8?) up till 0:54 where it settles into 6/8, and the throwback to the shifting time signature at 2:57! Yu-Peng Chen seems to like employing this style to create a sense of tension and unease, which he also uses in the other epic boss fights e.g. Osial (Vortex): 5/8 throughout, then alternating 5/8-7/8 before settling into 4/4. Really exhilarating!
nier automata intensifies
Naaa, it's not bad, but NieR Automata's soudtrack is another level
@@Fernando-xr4wb This track specifically sounds like a song from it though. Especially with the background women notes. I dont think they were comparing the osts as a whole.
Oh it very specifically seems inspired by tracks from the Nier games with hints of Grandma and Song of the Ancients. 2:16 seems plucked right out of Nier! (check 2:16, the exact same time) in Wretched Automatons - ruclips.net/video/YoLrFxUbgjw/видео.html )
@@Cardium oh damn i didn't realise it until now
@@Fernando-xr4wb Some soundtracks rival or even surpass those of Nier. Likewise, some soundtracks aren't as good.

I sense so much sadness in Dvalin while listening to this while fighting him. It's so damn beautiful. This here is a combination of beauty and tragedy. I need to cover this song soon. I think the time signature is 6/8, am I counting it right?

i would love to see the London Philharmonic Orchestra live, they are the best!
1:30 is what i came for bacause i literally died in a middle of a fight to dvalin bacause i listened to it...
I dont play Genshin, but my friend put this OST in Discord and wow, i instantly love it!
First boss of the game but it feels like a final boss. I love Genshin Impact.
Sometimes I imagine that as this is the first song we hear from a boss, we will hear it again with mixes from the other nations but in the last boss before leaving teyvat
Still the best soundtrack in the game
Probably one the best boss theme's I've heard in my life...this game is too beautiful for words
0:40 onward gives me Nier Automata vibes. It pained Venti to fight Dvalin but it was the only way to "free" him
Glad to know I'm not the only one who gets NieR vibes
YES!! For me especially starting 0:54
2:27 the eargasm
I'm like 3 hours before my deadline, and this song is making the situation way more intense. I suddenly rush my works and just trying to get it done in like 30 mins.
His soundtrack is brilliant
Damn just read the chapter 138 of aot and hearing to this OST was kinda heart breaking
Damn this OST so cool!
The first time i fought dvalin and hear this ost i got goosebumps. The best soundtrack so far in genshin impact
i got goosebumps while fighting him cuz of this
Oh wow, I didn't know this was performed by the London Philharmonic! Mihoyo really is not cutting any corners with this game. can't believe it's free to play
