Dragon's Dogma Cassardis Village theme extended

The best I could do to extract, rearrange and extend the theme with high quality right now since it was only a sample track on the official website, enjoy.

[@yawejg]

This song really made the village feel like home whenever you returned.

[@josephmarina2883]

+Yazoo Kadaj Yes, the power of music :)

[@bangkokharddd]

It's not just that, it's the inhabitants as well. Throughout your journey, while everyone else is telling you to go slay the dragon and attain glory on the sole account of that you're the Arisen and nothing else, the people of Cass are telling you to be safe always and worry because they knew you before you was this grand hero. They have huge pride in there mixed as well and simple disbelief at things you accomplish. Hell, they even tell you can stop being Arisen and just come back forever (Goddamn Chief Adaro, man. I honestly, truly love you and your beautiful words.) I fucking love that the devs kept updating the citizens of Cass' dialogue with the events happening in the game, even though there is little cause to ever go back there after leaving the town the first time. I pretty much went to the place only on my own will, which is pretty rare in a game nowadays. This is my favorite town in video games, ever.

"Cruel, unending ring" indeed. You'd think godhood would be pretty rad but not in DD. You meet Savan and he basically wants to die lol. All that effort creating Grigori, having him raise conflict to find Arisen was all just to find replacement for the throne. He wanted out.

This song kind of reminds me of Gatsu/Guts' theme from the Berserk anime.

[@thecringeprophet]

For me it was the main menu song. Honestly music alone is what allows me to know if a game will be good or not. And i must say this game has me pondering so much about it, even though its been months since I’ve beaten it.

[@gustavo33413]

This gives me so much Berserk vibes, particularly one of those times when Guts actually has some time for serenity.

[@narcdad7094]

I'm kind of late here but, Dragon's Dogma has one of the best combat system out of all the games that I have played. It's a shame that most games don't incorporate any realism to their enemies or bosses. Amazing music btw.

A portion of Cassardis Beach is based off of a portion of the beach on the island of Ko Lan, Thailand. It's a dream of mine to get to that part of the island, sit back in the sand and listen to this theme, seeing the part that is 1:1 to the game before my eyes. The world would expand and shrink in all of the best ways, knowing what is possible creatively and literally, and how they would come together in that single, simple moment of happiness. You can't ask or expect much more out of life than the simplicity and bliss that some things bring you. Your imagination above all else should never be neglected!

I go to cassardis just to see the villagers. The secrets the village hides and its homely nature is so welcoming. I feel as though I owe it to the villagers to come back every once in a while. And every time I do, I always take the time to listen to the theme in its entirety and I usually go to the cave under chief adaros house to watch the village from up there as the song ends

Nostalgia could bring a lot of feelings. At the right time this can be sad. Or happy. The happy comes from being surrounded by kin. By those you love and cherish. Honest work that helps everyone. Or this song can be at a journey’s end. Thinking back to those you’ve helped. Those you’ve lost. Was it all worth it? Was it all you wanted? Or are the answers out there somewhere. Waiting for you.

Zachary McGinnies No, it's not just you. I was like that too, before I made several other characters. Then the feeling dissipated. It kind of makes sense though, what with the whole relationship an Arisen has with their pawn.

[@ZiroWatt]

I kinda hate the pawn system, love the game so far but I really wish there were interesting side characters that you actually want to hear talk instead of emotionless annoying people you switch out every few levels

[@amorand3364]

I intend to keep the same pawn through my playthroughs, or at least the same one through the NG +'s. When I eventually start a *new* game, I'll change it, but I can't leave Despacito hanging in the wind.

[@lurkingC]

@Evrouin Westmoore- I know this comment is 4 years late but I’m the same way. My pawn, who was named Dawn, was such an interesting partner.
