It's interesting how the Morrowind theme became *the* leitmotif for the franchise, three games in. Kind of like how "Ezio's Family" from Assassin's Creed 2 became the main theme for that franchise.
It's worth mentioning that the main 3 rising notes motif is also the foundation of many other tracks. For example, the climax of both Far Horizons and Unbroken Road use a theme derived from this very motif.
Excellent. As always. It’s really cool to see how many times this piece is reprised in the Elder Scrolls. They better get Jeremy Soule to compose The Elder Scrolls: VI’s Soundtrack. He’s literally the ‘Soule’ of the Elder Scrolls!
I'm kinda happy zur's doing the soundtrack. not that soule makes bad music, quite the opposite, but evidence points to elder scrolls 6 being set in hammerfell or elsewyr, and inon zur's past work can really capture the feel of those areas I think. just look at the fallout soundtracks.
Also I love that Nerevar Rising has become /the/ elder scrolls theme. Everyone just loved it so much and Jeremy Soule is just that good and knows how to keep a theme in the best way possible.
I was very confused the first time hearing Nerva rising and knowing exactly how the melody goes even tough i had never played morrowind, but i have played oblivion and skyrim alot
Can you do a video on "One They Fear"? The only other song I can think of that uses it is Dragonborn, but I'm unsure if it's used in more than those two. It's one of the two Skyrim dragon fight themes.
In fairness to Oblivion I never even noticed it had any form of Nerevar Rising in the game at all despite my 3000+ hours in Morrowind and around 200 in Oblivion. Skyrim it was always obvious to me tbf, but I like what Skyrim does to the song
I'm actually so happy that Nerevar Rising ended up becoming "the Elder Scrolls Theme" for basically every subsequent game in the series, and I'm absolutely looking forward to what TES VI might do with it.
Surely there's more in Skyrim with that leitmotif, right? I mean I guess those ones are based on Dragonborn as well. But hey, Unbroken Road shared a leitmotif with Reign of the Septims. So that's fun.
@@MediaMotifs Listen to the song "Sovengarde" I think you will detect a minor-keyed version of the tune.open.spotify.com/track/6V3sqmfttMaBPK9OdQvGd1?si=BfqWw5TfRVOsp9uXWBNBug
This is awesome! Can you also do Dungeon Siege? I love the leitmotif that Jeremy Soule used in that series even more than Elder Scrolls'. I made a start in collecting the tracks in this playlist here: ruclips.net/p/PL24gs9yCHr_wFlPELWpk7tR1K7hqm9Lv-
It's a shame that you aren't too popular. This is actually referring to Bethesda's greatest lore hints and leak; It essentially is telling you that, everything connects to the lore based around Indoril Nerevar, and that it is the most important peice of the game; And it's a missing peice. If you know the lore on Nerevar, the Fallen God Akhulakhan, and The Disppearence of the Dwarves - You will realize that Bethesda's end game content revolves around the return of an honest King and an unstoppable Warrior; Indoril Saint Nerevar. Remember; The Nerevarine is a prophecised being, and Indoril Nerevar, is the one and only true man who ever existed. The Nerevarine is a title; given to *YOU* or another. The prophecy is right. But it's being misread. 😊

The Lorkhan heart drum cadence appears in Fallout tracks as well, and the main 3 rising notes motif

I can say It is 100 percent Inon zur 😅.
Oh dear…

@@jacksonelh Soule is better than inon imo
Go figure, Nerevar Rising has Nerevar Rising in it

Nice vid
Always thought there was a leifmotif in the Elder Scrolls series but I just assumed it was just Bethesda being lazy a reusing old vocals.
I was very confused the first time hearing Nerva rising and knowing exactly how the melody goes even tough i had never played morrowind, but i have played oblivion and skyrim alot
Man, this is the greatest leitmotif in the history of gaming.
Maybe except for Fire Emblem. Maybe.
YOU'RE FINALLY AWAKE
You were trying to cross the border, right? Same as us. And that thief over there!
Looks like lasts night storm couldn’t wake you, we’ve arrived at morrowind I’m sure they’ll let us off.
What's your name
if you didn't shed a tear when you first heard ESO's version of nerevar rising, you probably never grew up with morrowind
Can you do a video on "One They Fear"? The only other song I can think of that uses it is Dragonborn, but I'm unsure if it's used in more than those two.

One They Fear should definitely be in this video.
Good video, your channel deserves more subscribers

Hey
I just realized that (maybe) "Oh Whoa, What's This?" from Hiveswap references Metal Crusher a bit
owo whats this?
Hey man, I'm sure you would love TF2 Leitmotifs. There are tons of them like holy crap.
This has become the melody of the Elder Scrolls series
love this!

But hey, Unbroken Road shared a leitmotif with Reign of the Septims. So that's fun.
didn't "sovengarde" have a nerevar rising motif?
Indeed it did.
Elswyer theme too
Hinting at a return👍
End game right there.
N’WAH!!!!!
was it simon who stapled my heart to the floor?
Can you do one of these for tharn's betrayal if you haven't already
oh Im researched this video
i thought soverngard also used this too
Oh feck you're alive
Aren't there other songs in Skyrim that use the tune?
I don't think so! Which is actually fairly surprising but there you go.
