Yeah man I feel the same, I feel like I'm a kid again playing video games, new fresh fun and my heart is racing (I mean it's really beat real fast with exitement)
Kudos man, of all the games that release nowadays, Ys is one of the relatively few that's never stopped being awesome in everything it does and this game was no different.
it hasn't been a year since i played this game and hearing this again makes me almost tear up already for unknown reason. now i can't imagine the feeling i'll get 30 years from now
Yeah this game has moved me in a special way I can't explain. I knew Adol and the passagers were gonna get off the island eventually but I never wanted it to end. It's gonna be glorious to replay this masterpiece.
I am in a similar spot, except i havent played a single Ys game yet. I am here because of Adols Theme of this part of the Series. His Theme also made me buy some Titels. I am looking forward to experience what Adventures lie ahead of me and what soundtrack is going to get me dancing mad.
@UR WRONGxD The story is good.. but like all Ys, The ending is pretty badly written.. Oath in Felghana is probably the best ending so far in Ys series IMO.
Honestly. This song hit me like a truck when I first played it. Also, I wouldn't say the ending to this game at all. It's done pretty well especially for Ys standards. The series has always been focused on the gameplay more than anything.
@@dangerousshoes The story of YS is always pretty good compare to Final Fantasy which is so generic except 7 and 8.. However like all Ys games, the ending will always be tragic. At least the ending here is better than Ys 7.. But i still prefer the ending of Oath in Felghana as the best of all series (Since Memories of Celceta is the turning point of the series where Adol became an Adventurer instead of your typical swordsman).
@@KaitoRyuga That's definitely an opinion on the Final Fantasy stuff, but I'll leave that alone. I don't really remember Oath in Felghana's ending too well, probably because it was kinda basic. Adol kills Galbalan, saves Felghana, leaves Elena and everyone else to find adventure somewhere else, and so on and so forth. Which is something that can be said about most of Ys, just swap some of those names around. Can't say much about Celceta, though. Never got to play it. Ys 8's ending (mainly the true ending) was something a lot different from the rest of the series, and I thought that was nice.
@@KaitoRyuga I honestly see no difference story wise between jrpgs, they seem all very bad. So I only managed to play 2 of them, FF12 and Xenoblade because I liked the combat. This one sadly has similar bad combat to story, some easy generic button mashing :(
This is such an interesting game. My brother had a stack of Switch games and I was trying them. When I got to this one, it absolutely blew me away. I'm a hardcore gamer and never heard of the series. But after this game, I'm a fan. It is one of the best RPGs I have played in a while. Just had that magic that so many games this day in time don't have.
@@trollinlikeamadafaka5127 Not only the Tales of Series but also the Trails of Series too. The Star Ocean series and Phantasy Star Series is good too if you like Scifi genres.
@@JavaJoe1119 The ones your talking about are probably Xenoblade, Xenoblade X and Xenoblade 2. True fans have also played Xenogears and the Xenosaga Trilogy. The Super Androids from The Xenosaga Trilogy makes a cameo as a Super Rare final Blades in Xenoblade Chronicles 2. Their names are KOS-MOS and T-elos. ruclips.net/video/Yz7z9RPY0dY/видео.html ruclips.net/video/4-tEKnGqFME/видео.html
@@rapidfire9999 considering how jacked up the trails in the sky release was it comes as no surprise. Cold steel have made people more aware of Falcom and Tokyo Xanadu ex+ was the final straw that made Falcom go "What? We have a western audience?"
When I started this game and was playing the first 5-10 hours of plot i couldn't have imagine that this masterpiece was gonna make me feel the way it felt. Just amazing... the plot, the characters, the music. I wish I could play it again without knowing anything about the story. Forever Dana.
So, this was my first Ys game. I'm blown away that a regular mission area has better music than the entire soundtracks of other games. I love the soft metal compositions with super technical playing. I find this song stuck in my head more than any other background song from any other game because it rocks! Love for Ys and the Falcom Music geniuses!
This song is just pure joy to me. The thrill that Adol feels when he starts out on a new adventure comes across almost perfectly in this. Can’t imagine a better song to start a game with and it certainly helps that Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana is one of the best games Falcom has ever made in their long history.
Ys VIII was my first Ys game and i have to say that is one of the best JRPG's of this gen and sadly it's totally underrated. The music is simply amazing. Can't wait for Monstrum Nox localization.
Same dude! I’m having an absolute blast just exploring what I can. I also love Dana’s character design. I thought she was a short little cutie, but she was just short for her time period. lol
@@16xthedetail76 well almost all of Trails games is good, but for me the best Trails game is Crossbell duology(Zero and Ao no Kiseki). I really like all character in Crossbell arc especially Randy and Rixia, and the story is so good and the soundtrack is dope af!
I felt immediately hooked too when I first heard this song here on RUclips a couple of years back. It’s what got me to get this game, and is what got me interested in Falcom in general Hope you enjoy your adventure!
I started this game literally immediately after the end credits of Ys Seven had finished rolling and I had spent a well over 100 hours on that amazing game. And once I started playing this, I was blown away because I couldn't believe how phenomenal this game was! I Finished it twice, spending a couple more hundreds of hours and enjoying every single millisecond of the game and it's incredible music. Memories of Celceta was also an amazing game. And so was The Ark of Napishtim, the game where it all began. Not a single track in the whole series that's NOT 10/10 And then I started searching what else Falcom has to offer, and soon enough, I found the legend of Heroes series, which is *just* as amazing. The level of quality these guys can keep up is out of this world.
I went in with low expectations, just thought it would be your typical anime JRPG that would be an alright experience..and was completely blown away by it. Such a great cast of characters and story, with a really fun gameplay and OSTs. Trying to get through the other Ys games, but I just can't help but feel I would rather play Ys 8 over the older ones.
@@rambact5769 for most people their first introduction to a specific thing tends to be the best for them, to me YS seven is the best even tho there is Oath of Felghana and others that are better according to the people's opinions
First heard this song from this exact upload of yours back in 2019, been listening to the amazing Ys music by Falcom ever since. Just 2 weeks ago I finally started my first Ys game - Ys VIII, what an unbelievable game this is. Apart from a few nit picks here and there I loved everything about it. The gameplay, the setting, the music, the characters, the plot; it was all one big adventure and what a ride it was. I highly recommend this game to anyone, even if you aren't particularly familiar with JRPG's.
The battle type (slash, pierce, and the third one), and the map are probably my two biggest nitpicks. I wanted to use Adol and Dana in my party but if i did i would be at a big disadvantage against certain enemies due to both of them being slash. And the map was not really all the helpful in trying to figure out how to get to certain areas. Also given how long chapter 2 was i feel like there should have been another party member to join in that chapter. But overall its a fantastic game. I'd give it 9.0, or even 9.5 if i am generous.
@@zackfair6791well, if you already finished the game at least once, you can play on a certain endgame dungeon, where you can get a slash, strike, pierce medals each Use that medal on your character's accessory slot so they can do that kind of damage too
I'm overjoyed beyond words that our humble planet has been blessed by Falcom Sound Team jdk. They are Gods, descended from heavens. We were not worthy of this level of epicness... ♥️
When i first heard this composition i couldn`t believe my ears!! Having played all Ys games except the 5th one i can clearly tell this song is so damn unique compared to other Ys OSTs. Jdk Band did a great job composing a melody that would remind me of a breezy sea on a coast And opening in this game is a whole new experience for me! It`s so romantic! It feels like watching anime (same as in Ys I&II Chronicles) I love you, Falcom guys! I`m for Adol and Feena shipping :)
i played both versions of Ys V (SNES and PlayStation 2). They're not very good to be honest. In fact, the PS2 version of Ys V is my number one least-favourite game in the entire series, haha. (i still beat it anyway just cause I felt like it). Hopefully they make a new version of Ys V that's actually good, just like how Oath in Felghana was an amazing new version of Ys III, compared to Wanderers from Ys which was extremely mediocre.
This song is stuck in head since the very early hours of playing this game. I don't seem to grow tired of this song at all - it's still SO good, even though I listening to it on repeat countless times. That's when you know a song is a true masterpiece.
Same here! I played the free trial for switch online members and fell in love straight away, bought the full game and played it 10+ hours a day for a week lol Incredible game
You know what, this is a banger and makes me want to play more of the game. It is so well composed that it blends into the action on screen almost perfectly so much so that combat almost feels like a rhythm game.
I loved it more then the most recent title they put out for it. Felt really short and small compared to this game. Plus loved the characters in this one way more.
I legit just finished this game. Falcom always has the most banger ost I swear. Really underrated company. I loved their work for the kiseki series and was a bit hesitant to play this game. Im glad I did too just in time for IX.
Damn good. Probably my favourite of the ones I've listened to so far. If anyone's wondering, the translation of the name of this would be something like "Nameless Beach" or "Nameless Coast".
I’m not sure how to put it into a nice title, but a more accurate translation I think would be “unknown name beach/coast”, right? I feel like the Japanese subtly means that it has a name but that it’s unknown, rather than it not having a name. I could be wrong though.
Your explanation is totally correct. For what's worth, the game itself uses "Nameless Coast" for the location. My favorite piece of English from the game would be "Mountain pass with a fine view", lol. Official name in the OST is "Sunshine Coastline".
So accurate :) That's what it does to me, even on a shittier days...this music just lift me up :) Can't wait for the game, 12 more days until preorder comes!
Um, it's not.the older games had great music into think the same band makes the music for the series anymore. The last ys game that had good music was the psp games. The music fell off after the psp games.
Honestly, game kinda starts like that too. Laying half dead on a beach after almost drowning? Ain't no time for that, there's ADVENTURE to be had!!!!!!
Somehow this theme captures the "adventure vibe" perfectly, if that's saying it right. When this theme drops as you start to explore the island, that feeling of hearing it the first time is pure magic.
@@fp2608 I chose to stay in the first area of the game for a long time. I usually dislike repeatedly defeating the same enemies many times, but this song made it fun. I didn't even need to do that, but I wanted to! Falcom has recently become my favorite developer of JRPGs. I'm tired of Square-Enix and other companies due to them becoming westernized... Especially because the current form of westernization is particularly bad due to strange modern politics being forced into everything...
@@Vulpas"strange modern politics being forced into everything..." LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Trails, y'know the series that Falcom is most well known for, doesn't feature modern politics. Sure, let's ignore the fact that Crossbell is heavily inspired by Hong Kong and the message and resolution is that it can (and should) be a free country. Sure, let's go ahead and ignore that the curse of Erebonia as we see it in Cold Steel is in essence, ultranationalism and fascism. Not to mention, this doesn't even include Trails through Daybreak, which isn't officially out yet over here in the west. Its message isn't even the slightest bit subtle and practically bashes you over the head with it. Did you play the games at all or are you actually so incapable of having any semblance of media literacy?
@@WizedexReal Finished Cold Steel III the other day. Falcom's world building and the themes in these games seriously impressive. You really get immersed into it all. Only wish they dialed down the ridiculous anime tropes.
Just finished the game and got the platinum trophy! (Thankfully I played it after the english relocalization even though I bought it 1st week of release) This track is my favorite of all. It just screams ADVENTURE, which is the main point of Ys. It really helps that this was the first track to play in the Isle of Seiren, really sets the tone of the game. Love ya Falcom! Can't wait for Ys 9! Lol.
Adol Christin how do you get trophies? It’s my first time playing Ys and I managed to get the true ending on my first run thru (not sure if that’s easy to do). This game is so good I wanna start over on a higher difficulty.
Still in shock I've only just learned of Falcom 8 months ago; Kiseki and Ys are easily the best jrpg series I've ever played with the BEST osts aswell.
I’ve been playing Falcom games for years now, I first played the English translations of the Ys games for Famicom, these games are fucking amazing but I was really disappointed with VIII, it didn’t live up to my standards. But the music is as good as always :)
@@rambact5769 Yeah it sorta went into trashy territory while still being relatively YS like. My favorite is YS origin. I still enjoyed YS VIII though but yeah, the YS series should not be 40 hours long with waifu bait crap.
@@aaoronsathi8833 You're doing yourself a disservice if you don't play the Sky and Crossbell arcs before Cold Steel 3. Personally I find them both to be farrr better than cold steel regardless
I just started playing this game and haven't met her yet, but my god Ricotta is cute as heck. this ost is amazing as hell too. Having played everything in english available from the trails series and hearing all the praise about Y's 8 made me want to try it. Needless to say my expectations are very high
Been a long long time fan of Falcom soundtracks. Much longer than playing any of thier games. Finished Trails in the Sky FC, half way through SC, got several more Falcom games to purchase/play on Steam and just started playing Ys VIII on my switch. I didn't really become an RPG guy until the PS2 era and wish I had played Falcom's games earlier. Never too late to start, though!
Her looks is like facing an enemy straight forward without fearing it and just smile, (might be the cause of not knowing the fear of death but) what a great eyes.
This jam (and Soundtrack as a whole) has become my favorite Ys track. And possibly one of my favorites in all gaming. Can't wait to play it. (Waiting for steam ver.)
Good luck with Ys 5 then if you dont have a ps2, is very hard to get is the only one i havent played by now, the easiest way is getting a snes emulator and playing that version
I picked up this game on the switch from gamestop by chance, just looking for some random game that looked promising to hold me over while I waited for another game to come out (either Yoshi's Crafted World or The World Ends With You, cant remember), and damn was I blown away. This game is amazing, and was only $40 for the physical which came with and instruction manual (a rarity nowadays), limited edition trading cards, and a reversible poster of the map and the scenery from the game. Not to mention the box art slip is reversible as well. They went all out for the physical and it was well worth the money. still havent beaten it but I'm always finding myself coming back to it from time to time. so much fun
I just started playing the game for the first time today and my god hearing this track for the first time gave me goosebumps!! I have a feeling that this games going to be hella good!! I'm loving it so far!!
I honestly wasn't feeling this game at all for the first 30 minutes, and then this songs kicks on the beach and all you wanna do is explore more and play. Amazing game
@@saesang352 The opening is pretty dry I struggled to get invested, I didn't pick it back up until finishing 9 which hooked me much quicker but it left me wanting more so it was a heck of a 90 hour ride between the two of them.
2017's Best and yet Coolest Theme to have ever been well created!! This Music definitely brings a whole new level of Music into the World of Ys Series.
Beautiful game. I’ve never been so Emotionally attached to characters, Ever. Even the side characters i can connect to. I especially loved Dana. I really like the Chemistry she and Adol had.
Played Ys III when I was young, tried books one and two in my twenties. Playing Ys eight now, on Switch, and am just blown away. So great. Oh, if only they would bring back sequels or reboots of Dragonslayer and Faxanadu. But I will take what I can get, and Ys VIII is very, very good.
I totally bought it cause of curiosity. Then fell madly in love with the game, charaters, and Dana. I still need to finish it, but not sure i want to. It's so good.
I'm not joking when I say this game literally reminded me why I fell in love with games in the first place.
Yeah man I feel the same, I feel like I'm a kid again playing video games, new fresh fun and my heart is racing (I mean it's really beat real fast with exitement)
Idk but same feel back to old days to childhood again

Hopefully they make a new version of Ys V that's actually good, just like how Oath in Felghana was an amazing new version of Ys III, compared to Wanderers from Ys which was extremely mediocre.
i havent felt such a drive when this song hit and youre introduced to the map for the first time. Flawless
This song is stuck in head since the very early hours of playing this game. I don't seem to grow tired of this song at all - it's still SO good, even though I listening to it on repeat countless times. That's when you know a song is a true masterpiece.
I bless Nintendo for selecting THIS game in Augustus 2022 as Game on Trial. Ever since, I bought it and played it! AMAZING OST!
Same here! I played the free trial for switch online members and fell in love straight away, bought the full game and played it 10+ hours a day for a week lol
Incredible game
@@boahancock197 Ah! You're a man/woman/person of culture UwU
他の曲も良いんだけどこれが特に良すぎる
You know what, this is a banger and makes me want to play more of the game. It is so well composed that it blends into the action on screen almost perfectly so much so that combat almost feels like a rhythm game.
軌跡シリーズしかやってこなかった自分にとってイース8は衝撃だったなぁ、ファルコム様々っすわ
Recently just played this game. Can say it is easily one of my favorite games I've played in years.
I loved it more then the most recent title they put out for it. Felt really short and small compared to this game. Plus loved the characters in this one way more.
I legit just finished this game. Falcom always has the most banger ost I swear. Really underrated company. I loved their work for the kiseki series and was a bit hesitant to play this game. Im glad I did too just in time for IX.
Damn good. Probably my favourite of the ones I've listened to so far. If anyone's wondering, the translation of the name of this would be something like "Nameless Beach" or "Nameless Coast".
Another great field song..... Man where is the epic boss themes!! xD
I’m not sure how to put it into a nice title, but a more accurate translation I think would be “unknown name beach/coast”, right? I feel like the Japanese subtly means that it has a name but that it’s unknown, rather than it not having a name. I could be wrong though.
Your explanation is totally correct. For what's worth, the game itself uses "Nameless Coast" for the location. My favorite piece of English from the game would be "Mountain pass with a fine view", lol.
Official name in the OST is "Sunshine Coastline".
J.D.K rocks as always! :D
Very deserving of 1 million views. What a masterpiece.
❤❤❤
well you got your wish lmao
@@KakoRuraOumijia I commented this when it hit 1 million lol
@@Hamlock_ oh.... I misunderstood then lmao, bruh moment.
This is so fucking amazing. I know that Ys has always had some of the most amazing music in gaming, but this is just on a whole other level.
yeah! its gives me vibes even after 50th time; On a saddes day in life this music would cheer me up to the fulness
So accurate :) That's what it does to me, even on a shittier days...this music just lift me up :) Can't wait for the game, 12 more days until preorder comes!
trails series musics > YS musics although they're composed by the same team or person, but imo, i prefer trails
Um, it's not.the older games had great music into think the same band makes the music for the series anymore. The last ys game that had good music was the psp games. The music fell off after the psp games.
@@redcrimson1028
Oh well... i love the music in all Ys games
AWESOME Falcom, you did it again.
This game will be instant buy from day one.
ほんと神ゲーだったわぁ
I'm buying this OST as soon as Falcom puts it up. I've listened to this one track somewhere in the neighborhood of 30 times already...
"oh wow first level. Music's probably pretty chi-"
**this starts playing**
"IMMA GO ON AN ADVENTURE AND MURDER SOME SHITS!"
Murder a god like its no big deal
I'M SORRY I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER THE SOUND OF BREAKING CRAB SHELLS AND SQUIRRELS WHILE ADOL IS ROLLING AROUND
@@alexanderkendall4937 After already murdering other gods and wannabe gods and capturing the hearts of goddesses.
Honestly, game kinda starts like that too.
Laying half dead on a beach after almost drowning? Ain't no time for that, there's ADVENTURE to be had!!!!!!
Yeah this song is hype
フィールドBGMなのにこんなに燃えるなんてどうすんだよｗｗ
やるじゃないかファルコムよ！
フィールドBGMはすごいいでしょうね？
ほんとそれ。BGM良すぎやろ。もう、涙でそうなくらいいい曲。感傷ひたるわ
ngl, the 1st moment the exploration started and this theme kicked in was the best moment.
2 years later after playing this game and I still can't stop listening to this godlike track
Somehow this theme captures the "adventure vibe" perfectly, if that's saying it right. When this theme drops as you start to explore the island, that feeling of hearing it the first time is pure magic.
本当にそう思う。魔法のような曲ですよね！何度も何度もこの曲を聞いてるが、飽きることがない！
@@fp2608 I chose to stay in the first area of the game for a long time. I usually dislike repeatedly defeating the same enemies many times, but this song made it fun. I didn't even need to do that, but I wanted to!
Falcom has recently become my favorite developer of JRPGs. I'm tired of Square-Enix and other companies due to them becoming westernized... Especially because the current form of westernization is particularly bad due to strange modern politics being forced into everything...
@@Vulpas"strange modern politics being forced into everything..." LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Trails, y'know the series that Falcom is most well known for, doesn't feature modern politics. Sure, let's ignore the fact that Crossbell is heavily inspired by Hong Kong and the message and resolution is that it can (and should) be a free country. Sure, let's go ahead and ignore that the curse of Erebonia as we see it in Cold Steel is in essence, ultranationalism and fascism. Not to mention, this doesn't even include Trails through Daybreak, which isn't officially out yet over here in the west. Its message isn't even the slightest bit subtle and practically bashes you over the head with it.
Did you play the games at all or are you actually so incapable of having any semblance of media literacy?
@@WizedexReal
Finished Cold Steel III the other day. Falcom's world building and the themes in these games seriously impressive. You really get immersed into it all. Only wish they dialed down the ridiculous anime tropes.
Just finished the game and got the platinum trophy! (Thankfully I played it after the english relocalization even though I bought it 1st week of release) This track is my favorite of all. It just screams ADVENTURE, which is the main point of Ys. It really helps that this was the first track to play in the Isle of Seiren, really sets the tone of the game. Love ya Falcom! Can't wait for Ys 9! Lol.
Adol Christin how do you get trophies? It’s my first time playing Ys and I managed to get the true ending on my first run thru (not sure if that’s easy to do). This game is so good I wanna start over on a higher difficulty.
Still in shock I've only just learned of Falcom 8 months ago; Kiseki and Ys are easily the best jrpg series I've ever played with the BEST osts aswell.
Fellow relative newcomer here, I can't believe it took me so long to find it too!
Same here started on trails of cold steel and haven't looked back!
I’ve been playing Falcom games for years now, I first played the English translations of the Ys games for Famicom, these games are fucking amazing but I was really disappointed with VIII, it didn’t live up to my standards. But the music is as good as always :)
@@rambact5769 Yeah it sorta went into trashy territory while still being relatively YS like. My favorite is YS origin. I still enjoyed YS VIII though but yeah, the YS series should not be 40 hours long with waifu bait crap.
@@aaoronsathi8833 You're doing yourself a disservice if you don't play the Sky and Crossbell arcs before Cold Steel 3. Personally I find them both to be farrr better than cold steel regardless
イントロが美しすぎる…
this is without a doubt the most beautiful fucking music I have ever heard. I am so glad I got this game.
That bassline though
THAT BASSLINE THOUGH
하아.. 정말 들을때마다 두근거리고 상쾌한 음악이다.
素晴らしい この曲が一番好き
Ys' music and plot is legit life changing Such a beautiful experience. Glad my bro got me into it.
I just started playing this game and haven't met her yet, but my god Ricotta is cute as heck.
this ost is amazing as hell too. Having played everything in english available from the trails series and hearing all the praise about Y's 8 made me want to try it. Needless to say my expectations are very high
Been a long long time fan of Falcom soundtracks. Much longer than playing any of thier games. Finished Trails in the Sky FC, half way through SC, got several more Falcom games to purchase/play on Steam and just started playing Ys VIII on my switch. I didn't really become an RPG guy until the PS2 era and wish I had played Falcom's games earlier. Never too late to start, though!
I'm playing it too and right now on the final chapter.
Listening to this music feels like the beginning of an adventure. Ys series best note
Her looks is like facing an enemy straight forward without fearing it and just smile, (might be the cause of not knowing the fear of death but) what a great eyes.
You know the game's gonna be good when the STARTING AREA music is a banger
Best BGM on the game. really blends in with the game play and the environment. Basically the BGM fit for Adol
This jam (and Soundtrack as a whole) has become my favorite Ys track. And possibly one of my favorites in all gaming.
Can't wait to play it. (Waiting for steam ver.)
it's 2021. this is still the best level 1 song in gaming
Silver Surfer
@@Plasmariel Silver Surfer music goes fucking HARD I'll admit, huge shame the game sucks massive cock
@@Plasmariel We have yet to see anyone on Tom's level in game music to be fair lol
@@DockyPerky It's Tim :)
but yeah him and his brother are unrivaled
@@Plasmariel had to look his name up because I always forget it and I still got it wrong lmao
I just started playing this game for the first time today and my jaw hit the floor when I heard this music.
This is the first field in the game, it has no right having music this great.
This game reinvigorated my love for games. Recently finished Monstrum Nox. Gonna have to go through all the games now and catch up with this series.
ジョネーJonét the Windows Trilogy (Ark, Oath and Origin are peak YS imo)
@@pokeboi5438 Yeah, I was looking into playing Oath next. I heard you get to go to Dogi's hometown? I want to learn more about him.
Good luck with Ys 5 then if you dont have a ps2, is very hard to get is the only one i havent played by now, the easiest way is getting a snes emulator and playing that version
I have never had the first song in a game make me fall in love with it before this one.
I picked up this game on the switch from gamestop by chance, just looking for some random game that looked promising to hold me over while I waited for another game to come out (either Yoshi's Crafted World or The World Ends With You, cant remember), and damn was I blown away. This game is amazing, and was only $40 for the physical which came with and instruction manual (a rarity nowadays), limited edition trading cards, and a reversible poster of the map and the scenery from the game. Not to mention the box art slip is reversible as well. They went all out for the physical and it was well worth the money. still havent beaten it but I'm always finding myself coming back to it from time to time. so much fun
The CE edition gave you a letter opener in the shape of Adol's endgame sword too
@@Corrderio oh thats cool!
Take notes. This is how you start an adventure
One of the games I had the most fun with. Got me into the series.
i was depressed for almost 10 years until i hear these falcom power songs, thank god for these shits. keeps me alive.
リコッタの「御意！」とか「ざまぁみる！」とかちょいちょい日本語おかしいの可愛かった笑笑
I love her character design and the ost is beautiful , I hope someday i can play this game !
well did you ever get around to it?
How bout now?
@@gamer83294 no I didn't buy it for now unfortunately aha
After years hoping to play it I bought a vita some days ago just to play this game. I'm loving it. Hope you can play it soon
Don't mind me, I'm just relishing in some of Ys soundtracks before Ys IX comes out.
I JUST started Ys 8 for the first time a few days ago and I ALREADY love this soundtrack so fucking much.
In that case, don’t mind me either!
@@Velvorian I've already finished the game.
Lucky bastard... I need to wait until July before I can get my Switch copy
the name is probably "nameless coast" ! It's the name of the zone where this music plays
I'm always very skeptical of newer game music with high quality synths, but damn this is really sweet.
I just started playing the game for the first time today and my god hearing this track for the first time gave me goosebumps!! I have a feeling that this games going to be hella good!! I'm loving it so far!!
I honestly wasn't feeling this game at all for the first 30 minutes, and then this songs kicks on the beach and all you wanna do is explore more and play. Amazing game
@@saesang352 The opening is pretty dry I struggled to get invested, I didn't pick it back up until finishing 9 which hooked me much quicker but it left me wanting more so it was a heck of a 90 hour ride between the two of them.
2017's Best and yet Coolest Theme to have ever been well created!! This Music definitely brings a whole new level of Music into the World of Ys Series.
Beautiful game. I’ve never been so Emotionally attached to characters, Ever. Even the side characters i can connect to.
I especially loved Dana. I really like the Chemistry she and Adol had.
With how amazing this is I can't wait to hear Cold Steel 3's OST.
never forget crow theme...BLUE DESTINATION!!!!! IS SO FUC**** GODLIKE
oh god resisting the urge to listen to that games soundtrack is gonna be nuts
This fucking theme, man. I absolutely adore Ys VIII ost, but this is by difference my favourite one. I'm constantly coming back!
I bought this game randomly but it is so good that is hard to imagine, great story,battle system and this old J-rpg feeling, amazing, worth buying
Stepping out of castaway village for the first time to this banger instantly sold me on this game
Played Ys III when I was young, tried books one and two in my twenties. Playing Ys eight now, on Switch, and am just blown away. So great. Oh, if only they would bring back sequels or reboots of Dragonslayer and Faxanadu. But I will take what I can get, and Ys VIII is very, very good.
How about have them make whatever the fuck they want to, ok?
No need to be such a salty fuck jesus christ.
Don't skip Oath in Felghana, Origin, Ark of Napishtim, Celceta, Seven, and Dawn of Ys on PC-Engine (emulate it, with the fan translation/dub)
I totally bought it cause of curiosity.
Then fell madly in love with the game, charaters, and Dana. I still need to finish it, but not sure i want to. It's so good.
Dana is amazing. Really love her character. An absolute badass girl.
Haven't heard something like this since Blue Water Blue Sky.
Oh, my god, someone else here knows the brilliance of Guilty Gear and it´s OST. Thank you so much!
this music literally sold the game! no need to recommend, I definitely buy ys viii after this
The joy and excitement of adventure! This could literally play for every overworld area in the game and I wouldn't care. It's that good.
This song made me fall in love with video game music and is probably the catalist that made me fall down the vtuber rabbit hole.
Lost count on how many times ive listened to this
prob my fav ys ost so far
Can't wait till I get my hands on this on Switch.
1:37 ここからの盛り上がり方ほんと好き
I love this part the most: 0:00
When I first heard that strong opening and great build up then I knew how great Ys 8 was.
just wow. Had this in my playlist long before I started my trails journey and now later my ys one and it's truly something else man.
Thanks Bob, thanks Ys, thanks Falcom
BIG Thanks to the musicians :)
One of the best Themes of the last years. But the Ys Series is a household name for amazing Soundtracks, but Part 7 blows everything away!
