How The Wizardry Remake Redefined Its Musical Identity | The Crawl

[@77winkster]

This interview is absolutely wonderful. She speaks with so much passion, and she has a true grasp on what makes wizardry so fantastic.

[@HPRshredder]

Bruh. This is so sick. What a resume Winifred has! She crushed it with this one.

[@TheCrawl]

Thanks, duder

[@SkoadLivesOn]

Wasn't aware that the OST was freely available. Thanks, I'll just be borrowing that for some potential D&D sessions...

[@TheCrawl]

omg... THE Skoad??

[@walteringle2258]

TY for this interview. Ms. Phillips is a gamer soundtrack treasure. I was born in 1973, and Wizardry was THE game I wanted to play. My cousins had it, and when I stayed at their house one summer I was accused of being there to play that game. Not entirely, but it was my main objective.Then it came out for IBM/PC/MS-DOS. Yay PASCAL! I wonder if the "Thundarr the Barbarian" hidden tile trigger was kept in the remake, and how they fiddled with it.

[@RPGFort]

Very cool interview! Love hearing other musicians talk shop.

[@TheCrawl]

Hark, what luck! One of my favorite fellow dungeon crawler likers has graced the comments section! Lol, thanks for watching, duder! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

[@RhazahLuna]

What a sick video and what a talented and fun composer. Just awesome.

[@PaladinProse]

[@TheCrawl]

Thanks, man

This channel deserves a million subs! Excellent video as always very cool insight into a game from my childhood

[@RwnEsper]

Congrats! I feel like Winifred is a big get for a relatively little channel. I really appreciated getting her thoughts on the differences between something like GoW vs. Wizardry.

[@cameron2634]

Dude, such good work here!

[@uhuhyesm435]

Though I'm in the later half of my 30's, I had never played Wizardry until this remake hit. After playing it, my mind was absolutely blown that code made in 1981 still held up as well as it does. I soon came to the conclusion that Wizardry might just be one of the greatest RPG's ever made. An insane thought given how old this game is. I just wanted to say thanks for brining more attention to this remake, sadly it has not gotten nearly the attention it deserves.

[@joshmiller7870]

I sunk many hours into Wizardry 6. Worth checking out. Wizardry 7 is cool check out original and gold versions. Wizardry 8 is odd duck. They changed perspective, and it's real-time rather than turn based.

[@kidrobot.]

probably because it's a very simple 1st person dungeon crawler and not a 3d action rpg

[@Treekyboi]

fantastic video brother, Winifred did such a good job on the OST 😫She really hit that Dungeon Crawling/Fantasy feel on the head.

[@TheCrawl]

Right? Just excellent work. Really stoked I got to chat with her for this.

[@st1ka]

Man this is such a cool interview! Awesome work man

[@TheCrawl]

Thanks, man!

[@BEARDYDUCK]

This reminds me that I need to actually go and finish the remake now that it fully released. Stopped playing it a while ago because of other games.

[@nubius]

This was a great interview. Thanks for posting this.

[@Luckmann]

I need a remake of Wizardry 6-7-8 in the style of Wizardry 8.

[@justinterry8894]

And a ultima remake would also be welcomed

[@gordonfenn7373]

Great work Brendan - fascinating interview

[@joshmiller7870]

That's a spotless dungeon. Hats off to the ghost maid! Clean walls 👍

[@StarAllKungfu]

Hate spotless dungeons. Gotta keep an eye out for gelantinous cubes.

[@procow2274]

Poggy woggies. We used to have the NES version back in the day

[@TonyWilson615]

Great work, Brendan! Winifred seems so wonderful

[@TheCrawl]

Thanks, Tony! Yeah, we had a great chat. She really loves games and has so many cool insights about how to make music for them.

[@blarsed]

Awesome vid! Love me some Wizardry!

[@Diogolindir]

Winifred is such a fantastic composer and a very nice person

[@hemangchauhan2864]

Winifred work is AMAZING! Great coverage.

[@TheCrawl]

She did an excellent job with the OST, absolutely nails the Wizardry vibe.

[@scrubsandwich1050]

The new OST is great, though I'm still a little bummed there isn't a toggle for the old OST because it was one of the main reasons I bought the game. I hope they go and add that in at some point

[@comradestannis]

Good stuff.

[@BladeBlur]

A bit late but finally got around listening to this! It's insane how illustrious Winifred Phillips' career is! Based on her pieces here, she was a great choice to helm this project! Who knows maybe I will pick up the PS5 version? :)

[@nicholaslarson3778]

Oh, I've read her book!

[@Big_Dai]

I've always thought that the interviewer asking the questions should be edited out! If they are asking the questions properly.. the person being interviewed will inform the viewer.

[@77Arcturus]

Truly outstanding dedication to the craft ☕

[@joshmiller7870]

Music is good!

[@Sebastian-ib2ww]

I love her already

[@ryan.1990]

What a passionate woman, very charming indeed. 10/10 would embark on a quest for her

[@Alice-rz6zi]

this video is sick

[@statesminds]

Its out on console?

[@TheCrawl]

Yep! All consoles.

[@JBurtonPCExpress]

Yo who here playing wizardry Daphne? So far it’s my favorite phone game, great dungeon crawler and has a great wizardry vibe. It’s only been out a couple months! Get in losers! We’re going crawling!

[@TheCrawl]

It’s really good! I’m impressed with it so far

[@JBurtonPCExpress]

@ yeah! I knew you’d be playing! Awesome good luck in the abyss!

[@SolidHound871]

First 🎉
