How did YOU do? Here’s the original video! ruclips.net/video/8EgHdcmPo6k/видео.htmlsi=S2q-I6PjPR_zCC6D
Not much if any better. But honestly there is so much video game music out there it's no wonder. You would have to be utterly immersed in video game history to get all of that.
First one that tripped me up was Terraria.
Good
Miss a lot of answers ☠
I did pretty good on the games I've played and not so good on the ones I never played. What I found funny is how with just a few notes and you often know what type of game it is. (I did get subnautica, woo!)
I was genuinely flabbergasted when you actually sang the Skyrim theme. I've never seen anyone just casually get further than Dovakhin, without resorting to gibberish.
Same, I remember learning a decent portion of it as a kid because I was obsessed for a while.
Somewhere around 2012 or 2013 we had a new year party with friends. And We sang it all together right as clock ringed 12.
We had to use a karaoke version and I still remember quite a few of the lines.
It was awesome! And stupid xD
The words he sang that were correct are "Dovahkin, dovahkin, naal ok zin los vahrin" then "Ahrk fin norok" rest was gibberish, but still you can see that at some point in time he either knew lyrics or read them. For some reason that song still fresh in my mind after all these years and I was singing along with Marco lol.
I had it memorized in high school when I played skyrim for hours but probably couldn't remember it all now.
Voiceplay made an awesome cover actually singing in Dhovakin ruclips.net/video/6ys4Q1PO5ek/видео.html
Honestly, I think it's great that you didn't know a lot of the titles.
This just shows that there is still a huge world of music waiting for you to discover it.
I mean, the list is pretty bad. Just a heapload of games that are popular with the kids with mostly unremarkable music and also a heapload of random other games that mostly seem to be big with streamers or youtubers (that also coincidentally have a lot of children watching). Also some big games with iconic tracks, I guess. Honestly though, this kind of list feels like someone asked AI to construct a list or something. I don't think any person would perform well other than kids who spend most of their time watching streamers and gamer RUclips videos and they'd probably still get stuff wrong like the stuff from Doom or Sonic (honestly though, how did Marco not recognize the original Doom's music? He implied he even played it and as such, must have heard it since it's the 1st track you hear once you start playing).
@@thenonexistinghero I agree the list isn't that representative of VGM as a whole... but saying these games are just "popular with kids" or "big with streamers" is super disingenuous. It's just focused more on indie games than AAA games... just because they aren't games you've played it and it was big online doesn't mean they're just kids games lmao.
@@Mejoree113 They are indie games who have been big with streamers for most part as well.
@@thenonexistinghero Most of them are just generally big indie games? Oxenfree, Ori, Hollow Knight, Dead Cells, Hades, Dead by Daylight, Valorant, Darkest Dungeon, Celeste, Terraria, Fall Guys, Subnautica, Layers of Fear, Outlast, binding of Isaac, are all HUGE games. There was also Metro, Bloodborne, Elden Ring, Assassins Creed, Skyrim, CoD, Bioshock, Diablo, Doom, Dota, Destiny, The Witcher, WoW, Portal, GTA, RE4. Some of them were made popular by streamers, but a lot of the time streamers play what is popular, not the other way around.
Sure it was hard and there were some obscure choices of music from well known games... but isn't the point of these to be a challenge?
you were correct about the valve thing, its also used in other valve games.
Yea, it used used in pretty much every valve game since Half Life 2.
I mostly played Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2, so I only remember it from those games. lol I was confused why it said Half Life 2, 'cause other valve games definitely had that track in them, like you said.
PLEASE DO TEAM FORTRESS 2 MUSIC, performed by the Valve Studio Orchestra, the soundtrack is simply amazing and totally something that you'd never expect to go so hard. I personally recommend the tracks MEDIC!, Playing with Danger, The calm, and ROBOTS to get a good vibe for the types of music used
i second this, great soundtrack
I third it, been wanting to see his reaction to valve's music!
"But that thing, it scares me."
I would also recommend "Archimedes"- it's a gentle, sad counterpoint to the excitement of the rest of the score. Really though, the game is so strong in terms of identity that there's a ton of diversity in the OST. It's got everything from french café love songs to spy thriller themes to marching band numbers to etc etc etc, while still keeping that distinct 60's pop culture feel.
I fourth it
"There's a lot of music I don't know."
Simultaneously a profound statement and perhaps the most obvious thing you've said on your channel.
there is alot of fucking music its basically infinite
Seeing so many people in the comments complain about this video skewing towards western games like it’s a trick question, but I get the feeling that may actually be the POINT of this quiz. So much video game music people love and talk about tends to be Nintendo, Final Fantasy, Fromsoftware, etc. I think it’s interesting to consider how few of these other games’ soundtracks come up in wider discussions of good video game music, even though they’re clearly fun and distinctive.
EDIT: seeing how many times you say “I didn’t know/forgot this game had music” is really emphasizing to me that this person made a very specific quiz based on their personal favorite game tracks, and how that’s actually really nice for reminding people that other games have good music!
Cause a lot of Western games are generic and boring. Realistic, grungy, with lots of black and gray, with boring gritty or somber music. Games that teenagers think will make people assume they are deep and mature if know they are playing them. Zelda, Metroid, Mario, Sonic, Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Fire Emblem, Smash Bros, etc, are all games (and soundtracks) with unique personalities, that stand out from each other and bring out distinct memories.
@@Phatnaru0002 Boring games can still have great music.
@@gamingartbeasts True, but these don't. It's all music to fit those themes.
@@Phatnaru0002 Well, I like their music, but that's just my opinion.
@Phatnaru0002 not sure it's necessarily fair to generalise all Western games like that. And even though I can agree they tend to be more somber and have music that just fits the theme I tend to like that sometimes it can be nice to have music that lingers in the background while you do your thing rather than something that may take you out of the game. But either way I enjoy both western and Eastern games.
You’re still a gamer, Marco
This is just a very peculiarly specific list
A whole lot of various indie titles, or music from games where it isn't front and center.
It's very very VERY weird that they somehow managed to avoid almost anything japanese. I counted zelda and fromsoft games for anything japanese.
Otherwise nothing. It's so bizarre in fact it almost seems deliberate. I call racism 🧐 joking, but seriously, it's weird. Like a violation of the law of nature.
if I had to guess, the person who put this list together is mid 30s, played a bunch of FPS games in the mid to late 90s and probably regularly attended LANs playing WC3 and various mods. picked up WoW in the early days and developed long-term friendships with their raid team and they still play cooperative multi-player games together, dabbling in recommendations from those friends. They might have kinds now, and have gravitated away from time-sink games and instead spend time in shorter indie games that have good community sentiment as they have less free time.
If you score high on this list, I would say that you have such a wide and weird knowlege of video games that you have a problem. What a terrible VG music challenge
I got irrationally angry at the Silksong one. That game isn't even out yet. Also, distinct lack of any Eastern games with the exception of Fromsoft and one Nintendo game.
To be perfectly honest, I saw Sonic in the thumbnail and instantly clicked, only to be disappointed that there was, in fact, no Sonic soundtrack featured xD
Great video though, was really fun guessing along.
Everyday I'm hoping you would do a video on Sonic soundtracks, because in my opinion, he is the king of video game OSTs since the 90s. Well-known meme tracks aside, it's just so unbelievably varied that absolutely everyone could find something for their tastes. Check out the Sonic Frontiers OST for example, it's so good, no context is needed and I listen to it almost every day.
I also got clickbaited by Sonic in the thumbnail, you're not alone haha. maybe one day he'll take a peek into Sonic OSTs.. I'm keeping my expectations low though
Same here brother 😂
Same..I wanted to see if it was a niche pick from a sonic game like Knuckles chaotix or cd
Same lol thanks for saving me the time of searching through the entire video (because I came for Sonic specifically, but I'm gonna watch it all now)
God, that Left 4 Dead one is unmistakeable for somebody who spent hundreds of hours playing it. Musical stingers is the first warning you get when bad stuff is coming your way and those first couple of notes is the stinger that plays right before a horde spawns, just calmly and subdued in the background. Every L4D player has trained themselves to listen for those sounds.
And oh my god, the GRIS track. The second I heard the note, my eyes teared up.
Pretty much, it just brings a wave of nostalgia over me as soon as I hear it from how many hours I've put into both games.
Right??? I was like "That's from Left 4 Dead!"
@@ReptilianTeaDrinker And then Half Life popped up. Never played HL1 and 2, but ah... unless they re-use that music in L4D, I'm pretty sure it's L4D.
I feel like I got the sense of what types of games this person enjoys through the tracks chosen. They really like platformers, horror, and survival based games. Fromsoft games too.
Yeah no, not even 1 castlevania or metroid
Indie games with a couple weird AAA’s in the mix.
What platformers are even in this besides popular indie games?
That last one is a troll, Silksong is not even out yet.
Yes there was a demo you could play at a few cons but that's it.
Yeah silksong...the song of the silk....the game which exists but at the same time it doesn't.
You absolutely have to listen to the Minecraft OST as well as Team Fortress 2. Both spectacular soundtracks. Team Fortress 2 has such a great spy 1960-70s vibe and Minecraft has an amazing atmospheric nostalgic vibe.
I recommend Aria Math
i second this! the minecraft OST composed by c418 is fantastic.
I find it so funny that you managed to INSTANTLY recognize Ludwig’s theme, as well as the the exact track from the DOOM Eternal OST, But you didn’t know Minecraft at all and didn’t get the most iconic song from the original DOOM.
As others said this definitely skewed surprisingly western. No Persona, no Final Fantasy, no Dragon Quest, no Tales, Kingdom Hearts, or any of the Japanese fighting games, like SF or Tekken. Kind of wild how many songs they had in total with so little Japanese representation lol
tbh No god of war and dying light or ANY battlefield is crazy too
Tbf, they play any KH and Disney would copyright claim the video in like 2 seconds.
sadly he didnt get meet the team from tf2
there was no halo for god sake
I liked that, these games have great soundtracks, but they're in almost every quiz, this had a lot of games you ususally dont see in these videos
We both said "That doesn't count" for Beat Saber at the same time, I'm glad that we're in sync on that.
Why shouldn’t it? It was made for the game.
14:20 I say this as someone who never really pays attention to orchestral unless it's big and bombastic. Elite: Dangerous has some of the most beautiful low energy orchestral I have ever heard and I used to use it as study music all the way through college. I implore that you explore that games music at some point, it's insanely atmospheric and enchanting.
100% this. even though the gameplay is boring IMO elite dangerous is one of the most atmospheric games I have ever played and the soundtrack is so good. the soundtrack really adds to the feeling of zooming through a star system to the next space station.
There's just way too many good scores from games out there that it's too hard to remember where each are from xD but i think the more fun part of music challenges is learning about some new tracks you've never heard of
Sure tougher than expected but also cool because it didn't just repeated classics you hear all the time.
15:49 I can absolutely recommend Inscryption. Great game, incredible music, be wary of spoilers.
just got this game because of this comment, hoping i like it 🙏
The first 1/3 of Inscryption is great, the middle 1/3 is meh, and the final 1/3 will have you really just wishing for it to be over. I _really_ wish the first third of the game was fleshed out to be the whole thing.
@@Nijhthard disagree on that one. The middle is a bit dull, but I loved the last and first part.
Also, there is Kaycee's mod if you want more of act 1.
music sounds really similar to Alice: Madness Returns, another great game
That valve fanfare labelled as half life 2 was just a big troll
Indeed. If anything, it should've been Half-Life 1. That game actually has a BGM track that starts like it, once you get to the cliff section.
It's actually from the first Half-Life game. It is Half-Life13.mp3 among the game's music files, and it's titled "Hazardous Environments"
The Half-Life 2 label is a mistake by the creator of the challenge.
You say that, except it *is* used in game, but I think only in Half-life 1... I don't recall it in 2.
@@mandalorianmanic9525 It is played during the Valve logo in 2 when you open up the game.
@@nezfromhki Also when you first put on the HEV suit
As you said "this is beauitful" that is pretty much the whole Life is Strange soundtrack.
Was incredibly happy to see Grime on this list. One of the two composers for the game, Alex Roe, has extensive experience with making music inspired by Bloodborne and the Souls series while retaining his own touch, has done an impressive collab or two, and made a fan album for Elden Ring called Elden Lords.
Well worth looking him up. Same for Grime, well worth looking into that game and its planned sequel.
2/3rds of those tracks were frankly unfair, with nothing to go on but mood setting & build-up before any actual theme was introduced. The least they could do was cut in to the middle of the track to give you a peek at the leitmotif.
Cope
Sounds like you're a child that's mad it lost to some scores😂🤡🤡
Half of them were basic survival horror games, obscure as heck. Whoever made this list clearly has a type of game they play
was not expecting Dead Cells, but the music is so good.
that track is so fantastic
Am I the only one who likes this compilation? Some comments here give off "why so many indie and horror games I want triple A main themes only" like nah I'm happy it's not just gta, mario and (insert popular open world game here). Tho yeah a little bit more stuff outside of the west would have been nice
i like it!
Whoever made this quiz needs play more Japanese games
Only recently did I realize how much of the vgm I listen to WAS Japanese lol
I agree there so much good Japanese games that have great ost
Facts
@@ReallyNoAlex Only recently did I realize how much of the games I love WAS Japanese lol
But for real, I recently nerded out with a friend and made a "top 10 most important games personally" list.
And I didn't even grow up with them. But almost all the ones that I _did_ play, I absolutely adore.
4 from Japan, and one each from: UK, US, Canada, Sweden, Austria, Poland.
And the honorable mentions are:
US: 19, Japan: 12, Canada: 8, Sweden: 7, Poland: 5, UK: 4, France: 4, Australia & New Zealand: 3, Germany: 2, Austria: 2, and 1 each from Spain, Slovakia, Romania, Korea, Czechia, China, Internaional
(Naughy Dog, Valve and Ubisoft Montreal are responsible for almost all the US/Canada games. The other countries are a lot more varied.)
(Also, Poland are Sweden are really hitting above their weight class, damn)
That what I thought.
10:57 Ori and the Blind Forest remains one of the few video games that can legitimately bring me to tears no matter how many times I play through it. The visuals, soundtrack, and story are all absolutely beautiful.
20:45 Speaking of Celeste, absolutely recommend to give the OST a listen (or play it yourself!)
Yes! This! Farewell ost is the best I've heard, but the base game ost is no joke either
This music director in general is amazing - another game she made music for is Chicory. Also an amazing soundtrack (and a fun game!)
@@LuvableKiwi Lena Raine is incredible, she made Pigstep for Minecraft as well.
I love Awake
Celeste is great. The original OST, the B-Sides, and Farewell are three separate albums but all are amazing.
Ah yes, my favorite band: FALL OUT GUYS.
😂
Just one guy in power armor, one in a desert ranger outfit, and a Mr. Handy.
The Fallout Guys.
Life is Strange has an absolutely beautiful soundtrack
I actually hopped up out of my chair and threw my hands up screaming YES hearing Elite: Dangerous at 16:20! I am so glad it’s even in the list of tracks to guess! Such an enjoyable game, and the music fits it so perfectly! That track is the music that plays when you’re travelling in-system, using your frame shift drive.
This list skewed very heavily western. The only Japanese games in there were Fromsoft games, which are notoriously inspired by western medieval fantasy, and Zelda.
And Resident Evil, but yeah lol
Good. Literally 90% of these quizzes are full of just Nintendo and other japanese games.
the ones he cut out for copyright might be why
Not music from every single country needs to be accounted for. The creator of this quiz is simply coming at it from a western perspective, we don’t need to extrapolate hidden meanings.
If this was a video about the best video game music, I agree with your point, because there is so much good video game music from Japan, but this is a quiz.
@@TimHawk. sounds like skill issue to me
this is a good way for us to reccomend you some osts that u didnt know for the channel perhaps
considering how many great games there are with dozens of great tracks and the fact that this list wasn't even just main themes, this was extremely difficult and you did pretty well
Whoever made this list occupies such a different sector of gaming than I do.
the amount of frustration this gave me when I DIDNT recognise music from some of my own favourite games
The fact you mentioned Hunt: Showdown, means you've taken the time to listen to its soundtrack, and that makes me happy :)
Marco embodied us all when YOU KNOW THE FREAKING TRACK BUT CAN'T GET YOUR NAME ON IT !
Exactly what happened to me for a lot of these. I knew it but for some reason my mind blocked the name out.
Okay, like a quarter of these were VERY obscure. Also 2 things... 1: beat saber is CHEATING! And 2: Silksong isnt even out yet! That was some bull. I guessed silksong correctly, but still...
Cope
The Beat Saber one really wasn't cheating, since the track used in the quiz is from the official soundtrack made FOR the game, the name of the track is quite literally "Beat Saber"
4:56 ngl i was not aware you knew of No Straight Roads. also i think you summarized how i did quite well "There's a lot of music I don't know." probably doesn't help that i don't play too many mainstream AAA games and that i've been playing gacha games for the last 3 years.
Fun fact, Grime's lead composer Alex Roe has a youtube channel, and I first found him for his takes on Souls music. If you've listened to a lot of Souls music and like it, I highly recommend his song "Journey's End".
WOW, I did not expect you to mention hyper light drifter during the Minecraft song!
And I'm a little sad because I can't find the stream where you first reacted to Panacea, but it might've gotten taken down.
I love panacea. Really need to play the game
@@MarcoMeatball It's such a pretty and melancholic track, and it fits in so well with the game's context. I highly recommend you play it.
This list had so many tracks that at least for me are completely impossible. Like I have played Killing Floor 2 for a good 200+ hours, but there is no way I could recognize any tracks from that game. So many of these went in to what I would categorize as generic epic soundtracks. They don't sound bad, but there is little that gives them that clear identity since they are clearly meant more for the background. Something like Metal gear solid has that instantly recognizable 🎶Dun-Dun-DunDunDun---Dun-Dun-DUN🎶 (you probably hummed this while reading didn't you 😁)
The excitement we get whenever we hear a song we recognise and then just start jammin out is so fun. Love this video
Okay, so what I learned is:
1, I need to play more indie games
2, some games I don't like do have some good music
3, I always forget about western games when it comes to music.
This video made me realize just how different of games I play from most of these songs and how diverse gaming is.
I love how both myself and Marco just get lost in the Ludwig the Holy Blade theme and end up vibing along to it lol
I cried tears of joy that 13:57 was included. One of my favorite games of all time. I still have to get time to play the sequel.
TF2 music is SOOO good. Very very iconic. Same vibe as "The Incredibles"
The visuals too. I used to think the "I fear no man" meme was from The Incredibles.
Elite dangerous has a great soundtrack that really adds to the feel of the game. Even though its pretty simple it really adds to the atmosphere of being alone in the frontier of space exploring the stars by yourself.
15:15 Hearing the ending theme of the original MW3 gives me goosebumps. After playing through all three campaigns this track feels like a culmination of all the battles we had been through since COD4. The best Call of Duty campaigns !
I never heard elite dangerous music but i absolutely adore the sound design in that game
I can tell the guy who made the compilation really likes western multiplayer games...
Never played Conan Exiles, but the first thing I thought was "That sounds like the Conan the Barbarian movie ost". Love that they took it as inspiration.
"I always wanted to play it but I'm afraid of cry" (about Starfarer)
This phrase really touched me for some reason😂 (in a good way of course, it's strangely fits perfectly to your personality and in the same time completely is out of your image😂)
Game: has music
Marco: 😮
ive been playing a lot of issac recently and hearing you say you want to hear more makes me really excited to see those videos
Same, i remember how much i hated issac but can't stop playing
the last track being from an unreleased game is just funny
25:47 Well, I didn't know what the game was about and it made me cry.
It caught me off guard. 😭
You know, I just love how one can tell it´s Fromsoftware with basically the first second of any of their soundtracks. Really shows how specific their soundtracks are.
Don't turn in your gamer card just yet. That was an incredibly specific selection of songs. Other than a few themes from extremely popular games, almost all of them were dark, foreboding tracks from soulslike, metroidvania, or horror games. With a few lesser-known indie gems thrown in. And most of them weren't the more memorable songs from those games either.
Wow, I do not blame you at all for not getting the majority of these. I've never played many of these games, and I've never even heard of a lot of these too. I probably got a little over 10 or something, I wasn't keeping track. I was just sitting here dumbfounded for the entirety of the video.
Doont feel bad. Some of these were really Niche. Such lists should be sorted by genre and/or platforrm.
Marco you NEED to check out the music for Elite Dangerous, its SO GOOD
There is absolutely no shame in not getting most of these. As amazing as these are, the majority of them are not iconic tracks. Well done. The journey was fun.
Marco went through the 5 stages of grief in this video 😂
😂😂
failing to identify E1M1 from DooM is instant "your gamer card is henceforth revoked" ...
I don’t think so personally
Actually loved going through this with you, even though it was a tough one it made me realize i know quite a lot of songs, around 65-70% of what was shown in this ^^ Don't worry about the scores, personally i don't expect you to know anything special and i'm gladly surprised when you do know something, not because i think that you actually know nothing cause you obviously do, but because i have no expectations :3 Keep it up !
I feel you, Marco. I’m a heavy enjoyer of vgm ost for decades, and i probably got like 10-15 songs total 😂 just goes to show how much games and music are out there
Marco you dont know TF2 music? Ya know I could let Minecraft slide but as a TF2 self proclaimed NERD I cannot let this slide. Sit down in the corner young man and let the shame wash over you!
Joking aside, I think that would be interesting to see what you not only think of the music in Tf2 but also some of the animations because they are all, music and anim, pure gold ^^
(Also dangit, that was Sea of Thieves? My record was spotless till then maaaaan)
Don't let him get away with not knowing Minecraft music either
@@vibaj16 Listen I love MC but I love TF2 More xD
I have my fights to fight and I leave this one to you :P
I LOVE That you know Hunt: Showdown's music enough for it to come to mind during one of the songs. I never see anyone talking about the music from that game, but it has some of my favorite game music
Really like these guess the game by its theme videos! Hope you do these more often :)
That's the plan!
@@MarcoMeatball Nice! Already looking forward to it!
21:12 this song still gets me chills after all these years. Ulduar is still the beat raid WoW ever had.
Wow, I love how it sounded vaguely familiar until the strings. Conan Exiles knew exactly what the sound of the Conan movies was at its heart.
It sad to watch the little representation JP games had in the video, without taking credit from the amazing stuff western composers make, I always tend to lean on JP composers, they focus more on making really good grooves and music that you can really hear and feel outside from their games, while western ones usually try to make beautiful environmental stuff, songs that work great inside their respective storys and games, but not so much in a vacuum, theres a reason why so many people listen to any Persona OST, Kingdom hearts, Sonic, etc. Not trying to say that its the only thing western composers do, but it's a more common practice on this side of the world
Obviously this is regarding the music video, not Marco
Honestly this is wrong many western themes have more depth than some jp soundtracks. Persona for example it's just groovy songs, and many western songs like hollow knight, ori, dark souls etc are better. And imo it's way better to have songs work în enviroment and less în a vacuum. Persona games suffer of this since 90% of the time the songs don't reflect the enviroment, The goal nor the enemies you fight. It's just a catchy song. I feel like most jp songs write a song without even knowing to what level or what it represents. Same with sad or emotional songs. They write a generic sad song and put it to any scene that îs sad. While some western composers first watch The scene and then try to convey the emotion they see into a song that matches it. Look at dark souls games. They write a boss theme that fits every new boss. Meanwhile other games first write a "boss theme" and slap it on like 80% of the bossess. Sure it's catchy.
@@mihaimercenarul7467dark souls is japanese
@@mihaimercenarul7467 trying not to be racist challenge: impossible
@@nikolachiara9285 it's not even racist
Marco was defeated by the fact, that there is no final fantasy.
Whoever made this list definitely has an... interesting taste in games. Out of 70 games how is there no Halo, Assassin's Creed (Ezio trilogy), Mass Effect, Red Dead, The Last of Us, God of War, BG3, etc...
To be honest, using a bunch of game music everyone already knows in a "guess the game" challenge just wouldn't be interesting.
@@yautl1yeah but then there is Doom which everyone also knows
I'd not guess any of these, since I don't play 3a games
Legends Never Die is KIND of cheating. That's not _technically_ video game music, it's music made that happened to be FOR a video game tournament.
the first note of portal muzika hit at 5:52 and I jumped ngl
10:08 these are all incredible guesses of what game this could be from
Damn I don't think any of us in the live chat did well lol
But anyway, I think it'd be really interesting if you took a look at the NeoTokyo soundtrack, especially because it's the soundtrack for a source mod, but the music was made by someone who would eventually go on to make the newer Deus ex soundtracks
Kind of crazy how many of these game I don’t play and still know the music for. Really says a lot.
The entities that copyright claimed this are painfully foolish. Content like this should be regarded as free advertisement. If anything you should have gotten a commission.
Magicka does have some freaking epic songs
*Music starts
*0.0023 seconds in
Marco: Elden Ring!
I wish there was a track list for this, some of these songs are absolute bops.
Round one, Marco has been knocked out and down for the count. But will he rise up from the loser’s bracket to become this tournament’s surprise dark horse? Only time will tell!
Terraria has some amazing music, and the Calamity mod for it, you should check it all out some time. I know you did a few, but the entire of both OSTs are good. :D
Gonna be honest, I was dumbstruck when you didn't recognise the Minecraft music. Genuinely one of, if not *the* most iconic soundtracks in video gaming. You gotta do a video (if not a whole damn series) covering that soundtrack
I got around ~42/80 I missed beat saber, valorant, dead by daylight, ultimate chicken horse, hearthstone, until dawn, magicka, satisfactory, binding of isaac, outlast, dead island, the quarry, oxenfree, elite dangerous, cod mw3, inscryption, SUBNAUTICA, bioshock infinite, FARCRY 3, dead cells, diablo 4, layers of fear, darkest dungeon, left 4 dead, METRO 2033, celeste, world of warcraft, ori wotw, days gone, dota 2, grime, oxenfree 2, RE4, conan exiles, black mesa, little nightmares, spiritfarer, TOMB RAIDER, killing floor 2, gris, and starcraft 2. The ones in caps I played but forgot / confused for other games.
25:49
Yeah if you dont cry playing Spiritfarer you have no soul. Its soooo good though.
Funny how most of these lists dont have more sonic adventure. Those soundtracks have lots of tracks that could really throw people for a loop, so diverse are the genres, and theyre pretty much the closest sonic ever got to songs that could function as "real music." And they are considered "classics" today after all. First one inspired me to become a musician, along with f zero x guitar arrange
man, bamboozled by the thumbnail, i was waiting for something sonic to show up, but naur.
Okay using Legends never die for League is kindaaaaaaaa cheating on their part, cuz technically that song doesnt exist in the video game itself.
Leagues have music for each of the maps + champ select + special gamemodes like URF that could really REALLY use some special attention
The theme for the old retired winter map is outstanding.
0:31 half note plays and we already know which game is it.
You not knowing a lot of these songs just says I have a lot more content to look forward to from you.
I wouldn't be overly discouraged about missing quite a few of these, I noticed even as someone who's played a great many of these that the list tended to favor sound clips of the least notable parts of some songs, so they blended better with each other and were much harder to pull. For example, I've put hundreds of hours into Starcraft 2, but from that little bit I couldn't pick the song despite having heard it quite possibly thousands of times.
The lack of non-Western games was pretty noticeable too, aside from FromSoft there was barely anything on there, which really trims out some beautiful music. Also the Silksong pick seemed pretty lame when the game isn't even out yet. Same with the Valve theme because it's not just in Half-Life2, it's legitimately in all their games that dropped after the Source engine.
Either way though, even getting fifteen of these in a hobby so massive as video game music is frankly astonishing. You can't play everything, and yet despite that there's music for everyone.
Can't believe I failed to detect Ulduar's Theme, one of my all time favorites....
Don't worry this was the weirdest mashup I ever heard. But eh the one who put it togheter got the budget to play certain games.
it's funny to me, because I got recommended under this the post where you clarify that you are a gamer.
Don't worry, as an unofficial lore hole, I didn't recognize a lot of this stuff. Even though I'm familiar with most of the games.
😂😂😂😂
Yeah, I knew roughly only about half of the songs myself and for god's sake gaming has been my main hobby alongside reading for ~26 years now. There were even around 5 or so games I didn't know lol. Hard list for sure.
There's been some amazing music in games since the 80s/90s.
I had a lot of fun listening to some Ultima V stuff, for instance.
And of course Final Fantasy Mystic Quest on the SNES has an amazingly unique score for an FF genre game. Don't think any other FF game did what they did.
