Dragon's Dogma OST: 1-42 Griffin Roars In The Heavens

[@thenickrider02]

imagine being a creature that spawns once every 20 years to just chicken out whenever you are low on health

[@blesseddrones9852]

That's why they're still around.

[@elitef3642]

It's actually more common with predators than you might think. Why fight something that could hurt you when you can just say "peace bro" and pick on a weakling for food

[@donalddonald348]

@@elitef3642 this is why I always liked the griffin. Despite being a huge fictitious beast it felt so natural, like an actual creature existing in a unique ecosystem.

[@Roanan.]

Heh, chicken out.

[@IconicCROSS]

Love how it keeps running off and is a thorn in your side then when its finally time to take it on for real some dude with a book comes in and says "allow me"

[@90zillas4]

The griffin wasn’t so hard, but the whole blue tower quest was absolutely amazing! It’s probably my favorite quest next to slaying the dragon. Something about storming a castle/tower with a beast inside that makes its home there really appeals to me especially when it’s a monster that can fly. And for this epic music to accompany it is fucking amazing

[@maskednil]

I played this quest at low level and it was hard. That made it more memorable. When this music started and the griffin smashed down, my pawns and I were thrown around in the ensuing battle. And later in the tower I was struggling until the new owner of Salomet's Grimoire turned up and assisted us.

[@peppermillers8361]

Damn, I killed the Griffin too early. This sounds fun, I feel left out. ; _ ;

[@JuliusCaesar103]

​@@peppermillers8361sounds like you need to replay the game, and make sure you do the Salomet's Grimoire quest before doing this.

[@peppermillers8361]

[@bren1marqs]

Climbing on a griffin and taking him down from the sky is an absolutely amazing feeling, especially at the first time.

[@MultiGMan94]

The moment where this game “clicked” for me was when I was a kid and I was obsessed with lightning magic so I played a mage and only used lightning spells, but as we all know the griffin is immune to lightning, so I remember fighting him at the top and struggling to do any damage to him. But then that NPC you give salomets grimoire to shows up and starts spamming comestion and I just watched him kill it from 100-0. Absolute core memory and one of my favorite games

[@anonymeperson4193]

i gave mine the copy so he just showed up, yelled a lot and then did absolutely nothing. it was hilarious.

[@zangy3748]

I love how they set up the Griffin at blue moon tower. Climbing that tower while that flying beast tries to break the ground beneath you and then finally being at the top, hurling fireballs and arrows to bring it down.

[@jaydenlobbe7911]

Also if you complete the Sidequest A Troublesome Tome, the NPC you do that quest for arrives to the fight to help you, if you completed the quest by giving him the real Salomet's Grimoire he joins the fight, if you gave him a forgery he gets pissed off at you

[@Nephutis]

just walking, when suddenly griffon it lands, we fight for a bit, then it takes off and flies away with my main pawn still attached to it's face. it seems griffons have a very short attention span, as this happens quite frequently

[@AleXannon92]

Griffin slowly taking it's time to land me with full charged arc of obliteration on standby

[@vincentlau6325]

Capcom: Makes a dungeon centered around one Griffin boss *hahah Arc of Deliverence goes brrr*

[@Artixes]

This was me I completely didn’t know there was this epic dungeon boss battle and just one shotted the griffin I had to reset to last checkpoint just to enjoy it

[@Ropewatch]

1:19 that part is so amazing! Filled with courage!

[@elitef3642]

Griffins are symbols of courage

[@Madchimpz]

I love that very typical triumphant medieval music vibe.

[@Lakanus]

When you're Level 25, no pawns and just killing a couple of bandits along the way, going somewhere for a quest... *suddenly this plays* WHAT THE F*CK IS GOING ON WHERE IS THE ENEMY HELP *looks up* Griffin swoops down from Heaven and bodyslams you for half your health You try to get a few hits in, it just flaps its wings at you and makes you fall over "Screw this, im outta here" Run for´your life, music stops playing, you turn around to see the Griffin flew away with no damage and also killed all bandits The Griffin is just the best

[@BlackbladeYT]

I managed to kill it early somehow. It fell on the ground so I set up two great cannons and a ruinous sigil, then hammered away at them. It wasn't instant, but still.

[@gamester512]

It *is* possible to kill the Griffin before it can escape to Bluemoon Tower (though this can actually be a *bad* thing, since in this case you can't get into Bluemoon Tower until you have to go after Salomet). You also don't get the much more cinematic battle with the Griffin at Bluemoon Tower if you kill it before it can escape. But one of the simplest ways to keep the Griffin grounded is to keep making sure to set it on fire. It can't fly while it's on fire.

[@hellatze]

i took down this creature less than a minute with magic.

[@MEUAR]

@@hellatze Bro this comment's about a fond memory not a pissing contest. Also what are you even boasting about, you can take down cursed dragons in less than 10sec in this game no magic needed🙃

I cry thanks to frustration when this song is playing during escort missions.

[@riderz_13_78]

I love this glad i got deluxe for dd2 this slaps hard

[@peppermillers8361]

I get so excited when I hear this tune. Griffins landing and being able to beat them without the creature getting away is such a fun experience.

[@zynx1828]

Coming back to the old osts to compare to the sequal's i was about to conclude that dd2's griffin ost is better until i realized 01:00 existed Really makes u appreciate the 'soaring' feel of the og ost

[@y0nza1]

I'm back for exactly the same reason. No hate on DD2's soundtrack, but it could not replicate the feelings from that specific section of this track. Definitely made me love DD1 even more in an indirect sort of way.

[@svold]

would love a mod to replace some of the new themes with the old ones@@y0nza1

[@tamikagremory2350]

Shortly before it royally shanks your party.

[@emperorsithisilith]

I fought one recently and somehow by some miracle I survived without healing once.

[@TheWalterGS]

When I was bored to do some boring side quests in Gran Soren and I leave the castle because I wanted to do some monsters hunt to earn XP and to get some neat walkthrough, while I find a bunch of Goblins, Direwolves, and THEN. "Griffin Roars In The Heavens" music starts: 00:00 And I was like: "Why do I hear a Boss Music!?" I miss these surprise moments.

[@riderz_13_78]

1:19 my favorite part of this track 😊

[@ZenakuShinigami]

all you talking about the Griffin randomly showing up in your games. I couldn't even get him to show up when I wanted to fight him

[@Val_O7898]

ZenakuShinigami open fields are where they usually spawn

[@jonprz]

i replaying it since i got the remaster on ps4 and griffins always fucking spawn it gets somewhat annoying i haven't even done the griffins bane yet either pretty cool when they land in the beginning of the fight and when they crash land because of their wings on fire

[@ryangallagher8194]

Nah, they'll randomly spawn whenever they want. I left Gran Soren for the very first time, saw some goblins, went to fight them... SUDDENLY GRIFFIN.

[@beatriztorres4458]

they normally like to spawn when you aren't looking to fight one lol, well that's how it is for me. hell they so random they could just spawn and not even pay any attention to you, like at all.

[@rebbekahcannons9805]

The cows in the fields they always tended to spawn when I killed those

[@arczerohikawa6386]

This music not being in the 2nd game is a huge crime.

Soldiers: Help us defend this cart. Me: Okay.... Well, that wasn't too tough. Just a bunch of goblins, everyone alright? Yeah? That's great now let's jus- Pawn: It comes, Arisen!! Me: Wha....? *Griffin swoops down and wrecks everyone's shit, then flies away like a bitch.* Me:.....Whyyyyyyy?????

0:06 the beat that starts here is so epic

[@shaydilane2172]

I honestly don’t think a musical piece could describe a griffin any better. This is what a griffin sounds like

[@beatriztorres4458]

I was walking to the capital from the north side when the song started playing, so I'm looking around for the Griffin when I spot it diving down and landing on one of those lizardman in the river before taking off with it in its hand. I'm just standing there with a WTF face lol.

[@FunkyGhost37]

Escorting Quina. Feel likes things are going smoothly. Then I hear, "Master! A Griffien!" Then two of these fuckers come at me.

"Why am I hearing boss musi-" BAM Griffin out of nowhere

My favorite boss music in the game. It never gets old and it feels like I interact with a epic movie when the songs best part 01:19 comes along with those choirs.

[@juanpablo-co6zw]

This music could be used in some huge castle siege scene with thousands of troops and it would fit right in

[@GeminiFate]

@SerenityScore thank you good ser. I had it on a good Arisen's hunch that the ox was in cahoots with the dragon, and the Griffin was trying to take it to a meeting with him. Damn ox spies

[@jhinzoIV]

i love griffins, favorite creature in the game but dam does it grind my gears when it come down to the ground for a a few seconds then flies off into the horizon -__-

[@bruh_yourself5788]

Freaking flying away everytime at hillfigure

[@johannfowl8653]

I like the griffin because it doesn't give a fuck about you. Yeah, yeah, it is a big flying killing machine, but it just wanna fly around, grab some snack and go back home. I can almost hear it saying "Jesus fucking Christ can you please let me live my fucking life in peace" everytime I grab its attention. But when it gets angry... oh boy, what a formidable foe!

[@SwedetasticGames]

This track goes so much harder than it has any logical right too and I am all here for it.

[@cha-cha_supercazador]

[@brunofama3171]

Phenomenal score. Does anyone else hear the first movement of Beethoven's 3rd symphony between 00:05 - 00:15?

[@SamuraiXGray]

sounds like epic music that would belong in the conan the barbarian film, got a hint of the riders of doom in it

[@rexon31]

this tune is so awesome, reminds me of a theme from a ray harryhousen movie. which is great cause all the monster in this game have that feel to them any way;) great game , great music.

[@MadRavishi]

Best part when fighting the griffin at night with thunderstorms goin off...

[@allosaurus5415]

Try Devilfire Grove at night while low on items.

And when you're finally gonna fight it for real, Steffen comes and blows everything up.

[@kylekillgannon]

This is just The Beast from Evangelion smashed together with Mars.

[@theronman141]

If your still playing DD theres a area where they spawn every three game days or so

[@Toph029]

Griffins are like honey bees when I play. I see one and my pawns are like, "A griffin!" And I am just like, come on guys, don't fight, just ignore the bastard and it will leave us alone, and it does >:D

[@GeminiFate]

I was climbing an ox riding it, then all i see is a big shadow over me and i was like, aww fuck, then it smashed down on the ox, grabbed it in it's talon, and me and a pawn jumped on and it was trying to fly with a live ox in it's talon and me and a pawn on it. Loo. I've never seen a damn Griffin die so quick! And it dropped the ox, and the ox lived, till I killed it.

[@christopherlouis2037]

Oh look a caravan is being raided by goblins. Okay. Suddenly a Griffin steps on them.

[@theninjamandude]

I don't think I've fought Liches yet, but hellhounds are a NIGHTMARE to deal with, so you're probably right on that one. xD

[@Grandmastergav86]

Gorgeous theme tune

[@plantasmus]

Wow. At least someone had an epic fight. xD It took me like 2 minutes to kill it. I think I might have been a bit too overpowered for the quest. >_>

[@heavenlysteel8337]

Easiest and fastest boss IMO if you have a way of setting it on fire. Let it fly, set it on fire, profit. Still doesn't make it less epic though.

[@redinmolator]

Steffen's a certified bro. Just saying.

[@GeminiFate]

@s46 lol. Ya this game has limitless random possibilities. That's why I don't mind traveling, I've had those cockatrice turn to stone a whole ton of goblins to. And I love seeing when a pawn is turned to stone. The last action they do before freezing is always priceless. Playing as the sorcerer is fun since they got a spell that petrifies

[@nvrmd77]

Everytime I hear this music, I feel like in danger

[@OKVMl]

Started playing Dragons Dogma again and to hear this theme once more is such sweet reminiscent bliss, such an intense theme for the Griffin, only for it to die before the good part x( lmfao Once im on that head and use Dire Gouge its over lmfao

[@Vulcanfaux]

So I know the mh rise sunbreak composer is the same one who did this games ost. Wonder if they would consider adding a dragons dogma monster into sunbreak as a special event quest.

[@elitef3642]

Well, there WAS a leak about dragons dogma 2. Now we just gotta hope Capcom actually advertises it. Rumor has it they're going to use the RE engine for it too
