TheNVDW I wouldn't mind a tweak of the controls though. I'd love to play the game after getting it free on origin. I've been listening to this OST for a while and when I saw it there I was like, "YEAH!!!!" And then I can barely play it...
95-99 had some of the best game music ever. Check Mechwarrior 2, Quake, Diablo, Ascendancy, Lords of the Realm 2, Master of Orion 2, Unreal, Dune 2000, Unreal Tournament, Deus Ex...
My selfish elder brother Used to play whole day this game. And I used to watch all the day. Then I grew up and bought my PC, installed dos box and then installed this game and finished this game. Hell yeah.
This game was stunning, the completely breakable scenery was a revelation! I remember playing the intro of this game on CD and the video would keep stopping and juddering as my CD drive only supported double speed playback (300kb/s), it needed a quad speed drive to play properly! Shout out to my old IBM Aptiva 486 SX 33!
An evasion game with tons of hazards, environments, enemies, robots, guns, and deaths. Room after room of traps, nasty surprises, secrets, and bloodbath. They could expand on this gem thoroughly with the right developers. No Remorse felt ahead of it's time already, and now going through No Regret as an adult (never could find a physical copy) I have to say both are equally awesome and timeless.
Destructive Creations could have made a Crusader reboot instead of mindless massacre of innocents (Hatred). Provided they could get rights to the franchise, and I seriously doubt it, knowing EA.
@@SuperCookiemonser Honestly, the controls were shit even for its time. I remember looking at screenshots and assuming that it would be controlled with the mouse, like Syndicate. I was quite shocked when I finally got to play the game and it had these ridiculously clunky keyboard controls.
@@fotakatos You are wrong, echosector.com/files/doc/no_remorse_playguide.pdf chapter 13, mouse movement. Had a feeling I played this 24 years ago with a mouse so I looked it up and yes it was controllable with a mouse. Sry.
@@PrekiFromPoland Why DC? They wanted to make a Postal homage, anyway. That was the whole point of Hatred. And yes, the original Postal was noticeably darker than its sequel, featuring journal entries from the Postal Guy in loading screens and such.
I've actually went to the trouble and found the external music files on the harddrive, they were in some weird format that required a specific command line player. Played them all in a loop from a batch file while cleaning up my room etc. :-)
Yeah!!!!!!!!!!! Andrew Sega!!!!!!!!!!!! 49:39 Whomever did the new STREETS OF RAGE did a great job! We need this game back on our new machines, if they enlist the help of us, the fan base to guide them, they shall have a remarkable game, if they try their own bs, it shall fail.
Oh common, acting was shitty except for that arms dealer. But I guess it wasn't supposed to be great either, it just carries the game. And yeah, fantastic game it was.
@@markostanojevic3333 Indeed, the acting was so over-the-top and cheesy (especially that crazy arms dealer in No Remorse -- he was so insane, it was actually cute). But I am willing to bet that nobody played the game for the FMV sequences in between the missions.
Well, the traitor acting was actually pretty good. That base commander was OK, that rebel female was pretty hot as she was full of anger. Just Dr. Gregor Hoffmann was really cheesy :) Not commenting on the arms dealer, I couldn't tell him from his weasel...
This game was so awesome. I remember having so much fun looking for ways to either be perfectly stealthy or eliminate every guard on site in hilarious ways lol.
Dammit, while listening to this I have bright flashbacks of my very first run. Couldn't imagine the memory is so about details. i hear the screams of those poor security fellas running around burning xD Thank you!
+TheNVDW Thank CDProjekt for GOG.com. Besides, I've worked with these guys for two weeks as a temporary tester, big respect for them. And I thanked them for releasing Crusader games in my cover letter, maybe this is why they recruited me :)
So many memories tied up with this game and the OST... Thanks for this upload. Really hope they remake this one day. I understand the original developers went bust some time ago.
This is my shit. It was my shit when it came out and I was mesmerised by it back then already. The game, the sounds, the time, FUCKING GREAT TO WITNESS IT HAPPENING. Oh the times, the golden fucking times.
59:40 that's the stuff....this dude was a unstoppable force, they should make a new game and treat him the way the doom guy is treated in the new games, this dude was bringing hell to the people who betrayed him. "Make no mistake. It's not revenge he's after. It's a reckoning."
DoomGuy was retconned into a literal minor god rather than a very skillful and tough, gritty, marine. I don't think 'The Captain' is going to get that kind of a treatment. At best he's Duke Nukem.
Tellement de bons souvenirs, j’ai adoré les 2 jeux de la série ainsi que cette bande originale que je suis très heureux d’avoir trouvée ici. Mon fils est né en 1995 donc double symbole !
These were written in .mod format which allowed only 4 concurrent channels to play at one time. Needless to say it takes a lot of talent to create a tune with such limitations.
+Mad Robot Games Then I have bad news for you. The soundtrack for No Remorse *and* No Regret uses *eight* concurrent channels. (Coincidentally, they were originally written in .AMF format, not .MOD)
They were written in .mod and converted to .mod, correct, however they had to observe the limitations of .mod format, which is 4 (four) concurrent channels. When I ran my fan site in 1998, I contacted Jason Ely and asked for a converter. He gave it to me and my site was the first to feature converted soundtrack in .mod format, which, unlike the .amf format be played in WinAmp, a popular media player at the time.
"The original version of the MOD format featured four channels of simultaneous audio playback." - Wikipedia. And I also distinctly remember this issue when I was analyzing .mod files in FT2 in the 90's, when I was already alive.
Never realized how much my later love for the Lexx (TV show) soundtrack was partially due to loving the Crusader music as a kid. Surprised how much they remind me of each other, especially certain tracks.
Indeed it is... but an awesome one too! :) The first "movie" is sadly the very best the series did, IMO, but there's a lot of fun stuff along the way, and each season is totally different (for example, S3 is an epic story about the afterlife... S4 is a total comedy!). Some of the darker, more dystopian parts of the show have a bit of a Crusader feel to it too.
1:03:41 - If I do remember good, that was the test tune that used to play when setting up the sound card at the beginning. I used to launch the setup only for listening to that tune - "Never fear, the weasel's here!"
I saw this game in my friends PC back when I was 13 yrs old (India)- I took this game cd from him and realised what art was and 25 years later I wish we had games which had hte soul this game had - the epic story of a the silent anti hero, the awesome VFX scenes, the imagination with the weapons, the need to adapt to every level and enemy and the detailed lore of each gun and enemy showed the love and care that went in making this game. Listening to this now working is such a nostalgia rush. I was lucky to have experienced this
the doors blowing open with the silencer forward rolling through it with the machine gun firing with this music playing was so good. what a way to start the game
I can run this game from the original CD's on a pure DOS machine (x486), but now that Origin has No Regret and No Remorse available, I will play them through again on Windows 7. Way cool. The sound track is still amazing after almost 20 years!
Crusader, ,Half life 1&2 ,Dark forces, Tie Fighter ,counterstrike, Ultima, Warcraft II, Diablo 1 & 2, Baldurs Gate 1 & 2, Wing commander series, Jane's AH 64D Longbow, EF2000 DID, TAW DID, Duke Nukem 3D, Halo, Quake, No one lives forever, Silver, Starcraft 1, flashback, the lost vikings, Need for speed, Command & Conquer; no online only, no pay to win, no loot boxes, no half completed games (Cyberpunk:), just a smashing good time - the good old days of PC gaming!
1990's PC games had a very 80's sound track when they had music. very reminiscent of movies like "Vindicator" and "Robocop". love n' it! played this Gog version of the games just a while ago! No Remorse, and followed in close continuety No Regret protagonist commando(looks a lot like Avatar from Ultima VIII Pagan) survives in a drop ship. obviously a sequal and the subtitle relates to the Metallica debut album track "No Remorse No Regret"(1983) or is an extreme coincidence. These two games play like a futuristic Ultima 8(Pagan) set in earth's near future. the controls are wonky though. if you play "loose cannon" difficulty you are getting lots of mouse cursor sticks when using your gun or action key X.
Reading the "newspaper" that accompanied the game carefully also reveals that it is set in the same universe as System Shock, some time around the installation of SHODAN.
You can buy it on good old games, they have a version that works on modern systems, and they’re not expensive either, I think I got them both for something like €5,00 apiece.
To be honest, music itself isn´t anyhow special.... ... Buuuuut there´s something else - I can´t express exactly what I mean, but in these days, music did perfectly match the game. Nowadays, musis is more epic in high quality, but I´ve got oftenly feeling that threre´s a game and there´s a music. Even in lower quality, even the music itself isn´t really anything special, in 90s computer games era, music was direct part of gaming experience. All these epic games, it was like a puzzle and music was not just a cherry, it was creating gameplay. Like in this case, go to 56:00 (where I´m right now when writing) and I can feel the gameplay tempo, I can see the graphics, explosions, everything. Perfect, just perfect. I´m too happy I was able to be a part of that, get that feeling of 90s games on my own skin, play all these gems. Like I´d like to be in touch with 60-70s progressive music movements if I can travel back.. this is something I will never forget and will probably never be able to fully describe to my kids.
I'd love to see a fan-made sequel with the talent and financial resources to do it properly rather than a big budget AAA re-imagining that has a very good chance of not feeling at all like the original.
thank god for being born, in the golden era of pro gameing, like this game gem, among many others that was made during the 80ths but mostly the 90ths and some of early 2000, sadly these past 15yr or so its been shit to shit games :(
It is the best shooting game ever, the ost is equal cant as best as the C&C. The gameplay is such fun from killing enemies in so many creative ways by a large variety types of weapon. How come there are no subsequent game made? Does someone going to do a kickstart with that!
So many fond memories from the game. What really stands out was the insane violence and brutality. This was the first game I ever played where you could wantonly murder helpless civilians with no penalty. I was totally stunned to discover this. I still tried to avoid killing them anyway, but damn, just the fact that you could do so without the game punishing you was really a new thing. Such a shame only two of these games were made.
blackthorne (1994) let you murder prisoners when they weren't being flogged by orcs (in a *nintendo* game of all things). postal and fallout continued the trend in 97 (fallout even took it a step further by putting in *kids*). the 90s were weirdly sadistic now that i think about it
The Silencer is one of the most epic heroes of video game history. He (or maybe she; we don’t even know for sure)- was fed up with their corrupt leaders and snapped. And went on to just basically destroy the WEC single-handedly. It would be awesome to have a remake. Shining red In armor clad They turned your weapons Against you It was never about you You dropped out And may God forbid anyone Who crosses you You destroyed all of them Saving the world as much as you could In silence Nothing can stop you You ended them all The corporation is burning And now the world will keep turning In peace.
It's funny, as I was recently replaying this game and its sequel, of course the soundtrack kept playing in my mind, and automatically the first track would transform into something that I realized after a while was Command & Conquer's first track. Check it out, they are pretty similar.
The Gaming Ground Back when you not only got a big box with lots of graphics on it, it was packed full of big manuals and printed in-universe fiction. We got an instruction manual, a Resistance Confidential booklet, an Anti-Terrorist Site Security booklet (including a dossier on all of the NPCs), and a huge fold-out newspaper page from 2195 with all kinds of interesting stories. It was a good time for video games.
I only have the CD's, not the boxes as I bought them years later on eBay, but yeah, games back then actually had pretty large and beautiful cardboard boxes, the likes of which are now only reserved for various special editions. I still should have my NFS:SE box somewhere around here. :)
Music more than 20 years old and it still holds up well.
It never dies :)
Good music holds well way longer than that ;)
Same could be said of Wipeout 2097
Because MIDI is an incredible sound format and it's a real shame it has been pretty much abandoned in favor of full sound files.
@@chainsawplayin Except it's in MOD tracker format...
Right from the first 15 seconds, you know you're in for something good
We need a sequel / reboot of this game.
no regret is the sequel but we NEED a remake

Zayde Domasi No we don't

God I love 90s video game tracker music scores
Never played but good lord this soundtrack is phenomenal
Indeed. I played both as a kid but the OST was the one that stayed with me the most.
This game needs a remaster so bad. Stick with the same view, same cut scenes, just update the graphics and controls a little and keep the same tunes 😎

Always! 😄
The first melody is my constant ringtone for 18 years
The best choice, Руслан =)

I bought the games because of this soundtrack. I was not disappointed.
Back then, the magic of games was not in the graphics, but in the imagination.

I used to just leave it sitting on the main menu to listen to the music as well.

Never Played this game - (I was only 1 year old when it came out,) but soundtrack is cool - I like listening to it while playing other games.
Never too late to play!
I always thought Hypnotic was the best mission track. Has the best mood for getting in there and blowing stuff up.
Never heard this before. I like it!

Amazing!!! It was one of my favorite games )))
So many fond memories from the game. What really stands out was the insane violence and brutality. This was the first game I ever played where you could wantonly murder helpless civilians with no penalty. I was totally stunned to discover this. I still tried to avoid killing them anyway, but damn, just the fact that you could do so without the game punishing you was really a new thing. Such a shame only two of these games were made.
blackthorne (1994) let you murder prisoners when they weren't being flogged by orcs (in a *nintendo* game of all things). postal and fallout continued the trend in 97 (fallout even took it a step further by putting in *kids*).
the 90s were weirdly sadistic now that i think about it
so kick ass !! I wish I had a car ana a looooong errand and this on a cd :D
I will never forget the bullet sound in this game
Still fresh.
I wish we had the full trilogy: No Remorse, No Regret and No Mercy.
The Silencer is one of the most epic heroes of video game history. He (or maybe she; we don’t even know for sure)- was fed up with their corrupt leaders and snapped. And went on to just basically destroy the WEC single-handedly. It would be awesome to have a remake.
Shining red
In armor clad
They turned your weapons
Against you
It was never about you
You dropped out
And may God forbid anyone
Who crosses you
You destroyed all of them
Saving the world as much as you could
In silence
Nothing can stop you
You ended them all
The corporation is burning
And now the world will keep turning
In peace.
1:04:00 That was the installation theme, lol I remember because I got some trouble the first time I did so I was frozen a bit in that screen.

Oh how I loved just sitting at the main menu and just bounce around my tiny bedroom to this amazing menu music!!☺️
Einfach nur geil die das nicht kennen haben nicht in den 90er gezockt.
It's funny, as I was recently replaying this game and its sequel, of course the soundtrack kept playing in my mind, and automatically the first track would transform into something that I realized after a while was Command & Conquer's first track. Check it out, they are pretty similar.
Forever epic soundtrack for the forever epic games.
I'm trying to play this game in 2023, man these controls 😢
Epic soundtracks indeed. And i still got both games to PC ;) (big box editions!).
The Gaming Ground Back when you not only got a big box with lots of graphics on it, it was packed full of big manuals and printed in-universe fiction.
We got an instruction manual, a Resistance Confidential booklet, an Anti-Terrorist Site Security booklet (including a dossier on all of the NPCs), and a huge fold-out newspaper page from 2195 with all kinds of interesting stories. It was a good time for video games.
Word on that mate =)
So do I!
I only have the CD's, not the boxes as I bought them years later on eBay, but yeah, games back then actually had pretty large and beautiful cardboard boxes, the likes of which are now only reserved for various special editions. I still should have my NFS:SE box somewhere around here. :)
This was the first video game I ever saw. My Dad played it, or tried to anyway.
It's kinda interesting how they used the same sounds and melodies back in the MOD days. I can hear a lot of Unreal and Dune 2 in this.
This OST is absolutely bangin
these sound tracks sound very influenced by the stuff sega's sound team was doing back in the genesis era and almost an extension of it, nice.
almost forgot about this great game that foreshadows system shock
