Another round of ZUN's author notes of his OST wweeeeyyyyyy, this time the notes are pretty simple 1:53:13 Touhou 15: Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom | Stage 6 theme | The Sea That Reflects One's Home Planet > "The sixth stage theme. It's the seaaa. It's summeeerr. This song is a subset of the final boss' theme. I want to go to the seaaa. I want to drink beer in a beach huuut." 1:56:47 Touhou 15: Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom | Stage 6 Junko boss theme | Pure Furies ~ Whereabouts of the Heart > "Junko's theme. I think this song says, "now this is unmistakably the final boss!" I didn't try to make it too complicated, or to add cool parts, or just overthink it in general. I hope you can enjoy her danmaku simply and purely."

[@TouhouGOD10485]

Sadly he skip the last part because he thinked it was lopping

nah touhou isn't even unpopular

The Touhou guys and the Zero 4 guy, beyond based

[@BlackdragonTheShadow]

1:52:52 PURE FURIES BABY!

[@sp0nge1337]

The think I love best about Junko's suite of music is that constant build-up, every time the melody repeats it just keeps getting bigger and bigger, it keeps swelling and adding on to the anticipation. For another great atmospheric piece, The Perpetual Snow of Komakusa Blossoms from Touhou 18 is awesome.

[@HeroOfAnnihilated]

Huh, theme of loss and regret in Junko stage Quite accurate for character

[@touhouyamaxmichezuch.1302]

I came here just for Touhou honestly, lol.

[@anakrad.3966]

I have caught the flu at the workplace for a week now. I was resting in my house, feeling uncomfortable, awakened in the middle of the dawn to make a warm tea, and saw your live stream passing by for hours. Listening to the song and learning the theory from you made me feel a bit better. Thank you to the community for sharing your favourite song. Take care of yourself, everyone.

[@MarcoMeatball]

Feel better!

[@jurtheorc8117]

From a stranger on the internet, well wishes of good recovery to you. Music and community like this is not a physical medicine but it can be a lot of help, and that's heartening to see and hear.

[@felixrowan646]

47:39 Based response to a troll. I salute you.

[@MarcoMeatball]

Oh. Thank you 🙏

[@durrnip]

still confused at what the chatter meant by "selling out". Was Marco staunchly against mobile games at some point?

[@Puzzlesocks]

Simply calling them a troll probably isn't being fair, though possibly true. There is a lot of hate for mobile games and the predatory practices they have popularized, and for good reason in my opinion. I think that going after someone who helped make an advertisement for the game is the wrong place to attack, but if we assume as good faith as possible, this person is probably just expressing disappointment that someone they like is promoting something they hate. That is what they mean by "selling out". The assumption is that anyone with any moral fiber would be against these predatory practices, and therefore getting paid to promote them would be selling out. Realizing that communication skills are in the toilet and that a significant portion of the US is functionally illiterate has made me take a completely different view on how I interact with strangers. I'm not saying their logic is good or that I agree with it. And even as much as I would love the mobile game market and its influence on gaming as a whole to be eradicated, it's not my place to blame Marco for doing a job, and blaming him does nothing to solve the problem.

[@Drewtendo]

​@@MarcoMeatballYou do you! I was happy to see you in the recent ads because I knew it meant you got paid. Glad your getting recognized by developers and getting offers by them! ❤

[@jeffreychen8443]

fgo, etrian odyssey ,Falling down, touhou, and grisaia? i feel represented i wont lie, grisaia track really hits me hard when i remember all the situations i've heard it in

[@rathalos1522]

Ah, Sanctum Sprint! Written for when they first introduced a racing activity into GW2, and then used in a lot of racing events and activities ever since. Now I can't hear it without feeling the urge to go running. For me, the slightly slower intro is like a countdown to the start, followed by a mad dash all the way to the finish line.

[@preston_s.]

The Metroid Metal version of Downed Frigate Orpheon is one of my favorite covers of anything. I kept expecting drums and guitars to drop halfway through this one, haha.

[@NijiKonohana]

While I don't know if it will ever happen, I do kind of hope you will one day react to "Ricordando il passato" by Akiko Shikata (one of the composers/singers of the Ar tonelico games). It was the final ending theme to Umineko When They Cry, and I still think it is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. It would also be interesting to hear your opinion as the song is entirely sung in Italian, but as it's written by Akiko herself it's not 100% grammatically correct lol

[@YamiAi]

It's a really good one

[@crackerswithchez]

I did not expect my cousin's game (1000xRESIST) to be on here.

[@MarcoMeatball]

Aw! Your cousin crushed it! I’ve heard nothing but good things! It’s very on my must play list.

[@MilanTehVillain]

Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity, what a throwback!

[@aldocarulli3054]

Sorry i wasn't able to make it to the stream, loving the vod. I'm happy that you already knew MGSV-Sins of the Fathers and that chat loved it as well!

[@weirdlypicturedbeing2122]

Did not expect the Etrian Odyssey at 1:05:00 NOR THE STAR FORCE 1:43:46

[@terrencenoran3233]

Ah yes, FGO Lostbelt 6. The only timeline you don’t feel bad about erasing. It’s pure writing masterclass in absolutely making you feel bad about the enemy and feeling pure hatred for the faeries. As Albion/England burns, Oberon reveals himself to be the main villain the whole time after being your ally during the majority of the entire story chapter, and the point of his fight is that it’s completely pointless. One side has to disappear and it’s not gonna be you.

[@Krein42]

Heh, every time he reacts to Touhou music I wonder if he ever heard Mary, the Magician.

[@Poisonedzero]

Yeah it was requested by me a few months ago for one of these streams, I believe in early May? ~2 months ago

[@Krein42]

@@Poisonedzero Oh man, now to find it. Thank you!

[@jonathan-d4d]

I got a PS4 late and missed out on MGSV when it was released. But I remember the clever initial teaser, and trailer after trailer with the perfect music choices. Even if the final game didn’t live up to that ideal, “Sins of the Father” gave me chills when I first heard it and it still does now.

[@senatuspopulusqueromanus2082]

1:52:52 YEAH, YEAAAAAAAAAAAH, this track is pure rage

[@BlackdragonTheShadow]

And so is the character

[@AplReach]

I remember it so clear: the day Furina's demo hit KZbin. The final part of Fontaine story ark wasn't even out yet and nobody knew the whole truth behind Furina. All I could think is that there would be some redeeming quality to her character despite her antics (the truth turned out to be much heavier). In any case, I was pleasantly surprised to hear Marco saying that the demo music is joy and fun, because those are the exact words that came and continue coming to my mind back then and today. Furina's demo brought me *fun*. It made me feel happy and entertained. It's like I came to see Furina's performance and she did her absolute best to make sure that I have a blast witnessing it. At the end I was crying with joy and shouting "Bravo! Bis!" I was really glad to hear that Monsieur Meatball agrees with me. Thanks a ton for not refusing the pick, Marco! 😁

[@boring_incarnate]

52:27 "This lost warhead has been following me around." Marco's Ace Combat playing hours kicking in.

[@SoulCaptain2870]

Someone come back with a timestamp of every song 😎

1:30:51 There was a period when Anodyne 2 came out that I was OBSESSED with it! Such a cute and wholesome game! The first one is also awesome! I recommend everyone to try them out!

[@RandomGuy010]

Found some bangers for my playlist. Pretty sure the lady in the beginning also did the Umineko opening. Also nice singing.

[@leerobbo92]

Nothing else sounds like Metroid Prime. Nothing even comes close. That entire OST is a genuine masterpiece. Whole series has some incredible stuff, but Prime tops the lot. Green Brinstar from Super Metroid is still my fave though.

[@iceneko9170]

cool to see an etrian oddessy track make it in here. I haven't seen many of these streams admittedly, but etrian is definitely a niche game series. an old school dungeon crawler where you have to draw your own maps with surpisingly deep party building/management. theres some real gems among its soundtracks.

[@Roscar.]

Downed Peakate Orpehon my beloved

[@GilroyGoldBlood]

Hell yeah! Abzu soundtrack! Austin Wintory is super talented

[@proudlarry8225]

Oh my gosh, Metroid? Somebody please request Marco listen to Red Soil! Like the Dread version or something.

[@frozen_potato6957]

BRO I NEVER EXPECTED YOU TO REACT TO GOW2 OST. It's one of my favourite video game franchises

[@SinApex]

My man said "It's been years but I'll just sing some opera at the drop of a hat nbd" king shit Edit: Also I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one here who feels that way about MGSV. The game feels like it was super lovingly put together from 1% all the way through 50% but once you hit the midway point it skips all the way to 100% in the blink of an eye in a way that was neither good nor satisfying, nor satisfactory. It feels like it was FINISHED, but only in the technical sense that they made an ending to the game, but the ending comes where the last half of the game should be. This song was fucking insane tho, absolutely incredible track all around.

[@CannonStrike]

The only thing I could hear from Lisa - Boy Oh Boy was Let You Down from NF.

Has Marco reacted to any of the original Quake soundtrack by Trent Reznor? Its mostly ambient but there are some really interesting things going on in there.

I see dogs looking like Luna all the time (my mom raises australian sheperd), but she feels smaller, is she an american sheperd ? Or another breed entirely that just looks similar to the ones I mentioned ?

[@MarcoMeatball]

She’s not pure bred. She’s a beagle mix with Aussie and border collie and pitbull. But the majority of her genes are Aussie and beagle. :)

[@glonthein]

@@MarcoMeatball ooh the beagle part explains why she looks smol like that. Aussie for the win though, she looks adorable

MGSV's plot works fine, but that's not the issue. All the marketing, along with all the setup it had to work with from previous games, it could have been such an emotional impactful story. There was so much potential. That's where the disappointment comes from.
