NieR Replicant ver.1.22 - Devola & Popola: Song of the Ancients - Duet in the Tavern

[@yutakawasaki7207]

Standing in that tavern and listening to them sing just makes you think: "At this exact moment, I am okay, and I want it to last for a short while. Everything is fine."

an actual quest reward

[@Puff996]

This was the most worth while fetch/trading quest of all time. Especially if you'd never heard this track before.

[@daniel-joseph-davies9823]

I think this was the reward for doing all the side quests in the first half of the game as I'm pretty sure this side quest won't show until you've beaten all the other ones. Sad the second half doesn't have a reward like this. just money to buy all the weapons that are only acquirable in shops I believe.

[@efficientlylazy0]

Easily the best fetch quest of all time. Totally worth, I sat and listened to this for a long time. Such a great track

[@rkr9861]

It's interesting that the reward for the best fetch quest gives you no loot, no tangible item, and nothing you can use on any other part of the game. It's an experience, and one that only appears this one time. I wonder if that's why it feels so special.

[@crv110]

I've been playing games for a long time, longer than you would believe. What an excellent reward for a side quest, arguably the most elegant and delicate ballad in the RPG genre. Popola and Devola, the twins, in a mesmerizing duet. Just love it....

[@ananuvella]

all i ask for is a tavern like this irl with the small heighted scenario where people pull up with their guitars to sing or recite poetry.

[@st.altair4936]

After doing this quest I left the game on and just listened to this for like half an hour. Now _this_ is an actual quest reward.

[@Densoro]

God, the point where they cut the song off for this mix adds so much suspense, once you've heard the full thing. That lingering 'keizha~' without breaking into the next verse. I'm still sad about this leitmotif 12 years later.
