A Plague Tale: Requiem - OST Symphonic Orchestra Live Performance | Reacting To Video Game Music!

[@oderiviere]

I must say that I couldn’t hope for a better review. Merci!

[@JessesAuditorium]

Fantastic job!! Thanks for watching :)

[@Fr3akyPro]

Mate as soon as I heard the rat sound effect you use, I knew you were the composer of Dying Light 2. I love the sound when you load into the game there.

[@wysiwyg2006]

thank you for the wonderful score, it defintely added to the emotions felt in the game

[@mikey66666]

Epic ost ❤🔥

[@snakey934Snakeybakey]

Can I just say that this soundtrack made the game that much better! It's actually my favorite videogame of all time in no small part, thanks to the amazing score

[@Siru1]

41:35 "This song makes me sad". That's the point. It's a very, very sad moment for Amicia. It's a compliment to the composers that you realize that.

[@GreekGamingPouckis]

I was very surprised about its music. I knew its gonna be good but not like that.. What a game! I finished it 3 days ago and i'm trying to recover from it, i just don't want to remember it anymore. It hurts.. Definitely my GOTY, masterpiece.

[@snakey934Snakeybakey]

Same. Amicia is hands down my favorite fictional female character of all time, and easily in my top fave protagonist of all time.

[@luggilu7864]

I'm the other way around. My brain just doesn't seem to want to accept how the story turned out. It was perfect, yet i need more. I need the story to continue. Not in a third installment (i think the series would be better if left at these two games, as they present everything that needs presenting), but more the hope for that alternate timeline. That's about as well as I can put it without spoiling the end of this near perfect game to anyone stumbling on to this comment.

[@MagicMikeXx]

This concert hits harder after you finished the game. Great video!

[@kingdomhearts5532]

True the ending destroyed me never expected this happens

[@s.bamahfoodh]

True

[@niik315]

true

[@viserystargaryen2424]

Yeah, listening to this after finishing the game tears me apart each time 😭

[@aliatack19]

After a month of finishing this game, it still hurts me

[@lumao]

This game leaves you a mark dude... That is insane, i can't count the times i cried to it and still loving it way more than i could explain. Definitely my favorite game of all time, the storyline, every music are so well made and fits perfectly to the situation at the time. Close to perfection to my opinion

[@cephquepheas]

Ok first off, am I the only person who thinks you look EXACTLY like Arnoud?! (One of the characters from the game) Second, I've played through "A Plague Tale: Requiem" 4 times since launch and watched 3 others playthrough it, including the Composer and a few of the VAs, and this OST, without fail, still brings a tear to my eye each and every time I hear it. Loved this reaction/review and am 100% gonna stick around for more!!

[@snakey934Snakeybakey]

Omg your right. He does look like him, and yeah, I'm on my second playing. Idk why I torture myself with it but damn

[@TatarovPles]

Damn, i didn't noticed that untill i read your comment XD

[@snakey934Snakeybakey]

Arnoud is looking a lot better after his redemption arc.

[@robinzhang8176]

Every time when I hear the theme music of a Plague Tale would make me cry.

[@slayer47]

Just too bad they didnt add "Brother" in this which is kind of an important main instrumental in the game. That one sticks

[@Andy_from_de]

yes, and it is really necessary to hear that in the place where it plays in the game. Would have been a great encore in context of the symphony

[@iams1635]

The second song was played during Amicia's fight after the bad guys discovered hugo hiding in the back of the little cart with the horse and they were burning everything around them. This was after the burnt bee farm. It's called "No Turning Back".

[@iams1635]

The last song it's called "Up There" and it was played when Amicia was fighting the giant human-rat shaped warriors.

[@bunnytails]

Thank you for this video. I really enjoyed the longer format, and while I know this is a special case, I would not mind seeing more reactions like this in the future. I mentioned on Patreon, but I'll say again here, listening to this after recently completing the game was an overwhelmingly emotional experience. The music in this game works wonderfully to set the tone and mood of what is happening in the moment. The frantic violin and the discordant notes really add to the tension and a sense of unease during some of the more dangerous situations. It would be so interesting to see you react to the music while playing the games, so I hope we will see a playthrough when it is convenient for you.

[@darmoedvdome]

Шедевральная игра и музыка. Лучшее в игровой индустрии за последние 5 лет. Я плакал. Спасибо!

[@ToMuch2Bear]

The soundtrack definitely brings a lot of emotion after beating the game.

[@joyarktoons]

Arnaud just reviewed the soundtrack XDD

[@pakur2007]

😂😂😂

[@robinzhang8176]

lol

[@valence686]

A Plague Tale is a gritty game series set in medieval times during the great plague. It follows kids trying to survive into a world with some fantastical elements around the plague rooted in alchemy/sorcery, facing the inquisition and their schemes. It's a very gorgeous game aesthetically, and it feels genuine when it comes to the representation of the countryside middle ages Make sure to check out the first title (Innocence) before this new opus, which is a sequel

[@Sowillo]

You were spot on to think that the game's soundtrack is dynamic! It really is, and bits add up onto each other according to where you are in the level and what you see

[@Ilwenray85]

Amazing reaction, and I am glad Focus Entertainment reached to you to request it.

[@LevZhivaev]

As someone who just finished both games, great, insightful comments. Well done! You, sir, are a real pro.

[@Andy_from_de]

I think it speaks bounds about the compsotion of the music that you were able to capture so much of what actually happens in the game without knowing anything about it. Perhaps you have played it, perhaps not, but I can say you 100% absolutely nailed it when it comes to that final piece.

[@bronzemuseum504]

been blessed by this amazing music while playing Requiem has been such a blessing. The music really give the scenes so much more impact

[@micahrice466]

I play this at least month a month in my car. It's the most amazing music made in modern times that sounds classical.

[@TheBADProductions]

make sure you play the first game. The sequel will make zero sense and isn't worth playing unless you've played the original game

[@wysiwyg2006]

also a great score

[@xicotripa9024]

Nice review arnoud

[@AtelierRobu]

Wait he does whole orchestra reactions now? Someone send in the Sonic 30th Anniversary Symphony

[@Stephen-Fox]

And/or one of the Splatoon v-idol concerts (Likely the S2 one in... I think France... since that has official English for the dialogue meaning it's permanently up in English) because I would be fascinated to see a professional musician's take on v-idol stuff generally.

[@iams1635]

And we all know that first amazing song, the one that helped us cry our eyes out, "A Plague Tale Requiem", played at that moment Amicia and Lucas were walking towards Hugo in the tree and end it all. Bravo!!!!!

[@Deviolines]

Great video, the instrument you mentioned is a nyckleharpa, a wordenful nordic string instrument, I think it's fron Sweden.

[@izzydizzy9192]

This was a spot on analysis, dude. I do sincerely hope you do end up playing the games, they are incredible. Subscribed for more music appreciation:)

[@ТимонИПумба-д3п]

Если бы перед этим, прошел обе части, эффект был бы усилен взрывоподобно. Музыка в игре работает непосредственно в связке с эмоциональной состовляющей сценария. Она идеально отражает и выражает с помощью звуков, чувства героев и твои. Ты прав, это пьеса! Настоящее произведение о вечном...

[@HysteriaAlice201]

It would be awesome if you would check out metal hellsinger. They won an award for best game audio and are nearly there for best soundtrack. They have Serj Tankian sing for one of their songs called No Tomorrow. The game is like if doom and guitar hero had a baby and its a metalhead's dream game💗

[@TranceEmotion]

WoW when that kicked in i got goosebumps. That's some powerful music!

[@ShacotheLore]

So, thanks. I know know that requiem is in the name because it's the second game. Had no idea it existed.

[@iams1635]

The 3rd song was Hugo's dream, when he was chasing the Phoenix. It's called "The Dream"

[@mrphilson03]

Superbe analyses de ce chef d’œuvre thanks😊

[@chapus2009]

I stumbled upon your channel through this video and I'm glad I did! :-) It's really cool to see people enjoying and loving video game OSTs, and it warms my heart to see Plague Tale Requiem's music get the love it deserves!! I'd highly recommend listening to the first game (A Plague Tale: Innocence) and maybe watching a playthrough if you're short on time just so Requiem makes more sense. A lot of the music also takes from songs of the first game and really layers so many things together! But thanks for this video, really makes me realize how powerful music can be... and it's no exception for A Plague Tale Requiem. I finished it a couple days ago and I'm still recovering from it, it's a very emotional story for sure.

[@EsporHB]

Great! I was thinking about requesting parts from the soundtrack.

[@pakur2007]

I immediately bought the original CD with this music and the album is still playing in the player. Championship!

[@hago66]

Pretty sure that instrument that lady is playing is a nyckelharpa aka. keyed fiddle. Not sure about this but it might've been included in Witcher music based on the sound but there are so many other instruments sounding similar.

[@coleauten5612]

If you play Requiem you should definitely try to play Innocence first. Both have great soundtracks and are great games, Innocence will help give you a lot of context and connect you deeper to the characters.

[@cupafail]

One of the best series I've played, and both have great OST. Voice acting is also amazing in both games, very emotional journey. Highly recommend these games to everyone!

[@jan_zabransky]

Dont know if you looked up the instrument you were wondering about. But it is called nyckelharpha. I have been wandering about it myself some time :D

[@ArtemisDalmasca]

I'd love to hear your opinion of the main theme from the first game. Same tune but it's phenomenal. Going into the main menu is always a treat

[@billybro1403]

oh I love that, it's a lot more peaceful. The iteration in Requiem is chaotic. I love both

[@luggilu7864]

i might be biased because i played the game so i already connect certain sceneries with the music, but even trying to ignore that, the music is incredible at painting pictures, with each note and syllable just right and every instrument used to serve exact and sometimes barely noticeable role. you could tell an entire story just with this soundtrack. it in itself offers a complete experience.

[@daybreakgo5609]

I promise you won’t regret playing a plague tales. Amazing game experience and would recommend to anyone. I’m still thinking about the game after finishing it.

[@matthewmcshane399]

U should react to the track Empowering Yourself from the Dying Light 2 soundtrack. Its composed by the same guy composed both Plague Tale Games.

[@wysiwyg2006]

along with ambient chillout, movie and game OST's are what i listen to mainly. Requiems score is so emotional and re-listenable especially if you played the game. I finished this wonderful equally emotional game a couple of days ago on PC. My favorite tracks are: Reunion (the best track imho, also the fourth one on the live version) Hide and Seek The Island A plague tale Requiem main theme The Storm Other incredible game soundtracks that i listen to on repeat- Assassins Creed 2 AC2 Brotherhood AC Black Flag AC Origins The Last Guardian Journey Horizon Zero Dawn Mass Effect 2 Elite Dangerous ES Skyrim The Witcher 2 URU ages beyond myst Myst 3 Exile Anno 2070 Giants Citizen Kabuto

[@seekittycat]

Fantastic 😍 this is awesome. I'm at work so just gonna enjoy this concert with you lol

[@baronbrendan9612]

Probably won't get picked but whereabouts of light from trails in the sky both the musical selection and full harmonica versions the musical selection is the opening with Japanese lyrics but sets tone and the other is played in game both as a bonding point with a character till the plot twist happens at the end of the first game making it sweet and loving like a family warmth and also a sad song at the same

[@snakey934Snakeybakey]

Can you identify the instrument shown at 2:27?

[@AmakusaWorld]

IF you make an anime music video reaction, when it finish airing you gotta listen to all Bocchi the Rock songs. xDDDD. Much love dude

[@gioret998]

What a gigachad

[@Leo-si2gw]

U should do: Thus spoke brooks- Catherine. Love the song!

[@crftricampeaoinvicto]

Bravo!!!

[@airposte1978]

Se jeux est une pépite niveau bande son et l'histoire est très bouleversant 😢😭

[@holysecret2]

21:15 Diablo 2 Act 5 Baal cinematic vibes

[@venomtailOG]

I think you should have watched the launch trailer when you started wondering what the story is about. A lot would have clicked in the two minutes. Great watch.

[@highchampking]

Is that a nickelharpa and a Baroque-era guitar I see? 🤓

[@jamil1654]

9:15 aaaaaah temon

[@ТимонИПумба-д3п]

Может рассинхронизация, а может партий волынки не одна, а две и видео оператор снимал не того

[@soratheorangejuicemascot5809]

I wanna see you react to Hellsinker ost. I recommend Segment 5 Boss SOL side ost.

[@TheLast0fUs]

You look like Arnaud from the game😅

[@skolaskellofkells6195]

You should listen to the songs from the first game, in my opinion they're better. Like "Beyond the Horizon" for example

[@IceDemonPT]

Requiem builds upon Innocence. In a sense, they're better because they're OG. But I like Requiem because its so fitting to the game itself.

[@kingdomhearts5532]

no requiem have better soundtracks bro

[@Chloe_prices_spliff]

@@kingdomhearts5532 literally

[@pascoles]

APTR > God of War in terms of soundtrack

[@ChinChin-gi1kk]

Please make a reaction to the first and third warning from the game lobotomy corporation

[@lfs1973]

you should try react to gran turismo musics, bc its makes no sence
