Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance - All Battle Themes (All Routes; Original and New Soundtracks)

[@chickenpng459]

I'm just glad the SMTVV soundtrack got nominated for best soundtrack in the golden joystick awards. even though it didn't win, it was at least recognized.

[@nr2676]

This is something. First nomination for Team Maniax, and finally Ryota Kozuka is recognized (and other members from ATLUS SOUND TEAM like Kenichi Tsuchyia and Toshiki Konishi). Hidehito Aoki if would be alive, would be very proud of Kenichi Tsuchiya compositions.

[@chickenpng459]

@@nr2676 it got in over persona 3 reload as well, which I see as an absolute win

[@nr2676]

@@chickenpng459 in my opinion its Atlus fault releasing Team Maniax titles in same year with P-Studio, because it keep overshadowing them. They should release for example Team Maniax games in 2023, 2025, 2027, Persona games in 2924, 2026, 2028, but i think they doing that to reduce marketing costs. There would better chance SMT will get more recognition.

Man that sucks. Shin megami tensei got amazing potential

[@nr2676]

@@chickenpng459 Which was not even a achievement because Atsuji Kitajoh (worst composer in Atlus Sound Team ever) even ruined P3 soundtrack, just like Shoji Meguro ruined Revelations Persona soundtrack in PSP version.

[@transcreatureofchaos]

I still can't get over Atlus making an entire game's worth of music just for the rerelease. This gives me hope for the quality of future rereleases honestly

[@Pokefan000000]

I can only imagine what they’re gonna do with SMT 6, probably won’t see it for half a decade but I know it’s gonna be crazy

[@GaeaRage0798]

Probably instead shoehorning their next rerelease girl into already pre-established stories, they will rather write alternate versions of these stories to make them fit in.

[@randomdude2546]

Would be better to get quality relase tho so we dont need rerelases tho vengance could be a dlc plus free updates same with persona 5 royal,4 golden etc but no buy the same game twice or wait 2 years before you buy thats such a weird model

[@demifolk8940]

@@randomdude2546supposedly they do want to move onto just releasing a full game and doing expanded dlc to add extra stuff later on. while im not too keen on buying the same game again, the only upside is that they can do so much more and basically perfect a game thats already good. a smaller sized dlc, i feel, wouldnt be able to do that if its priced at 20-40 dollars, but for players its so much more convenient.

[@randomdude2546]

@@demifolk8940 They should be able to do it for 40usd you have to realize that vast majority of content is already done voice acting animations and such extra content for royal or vengeance or whatever dose t cost as much as base game did in terms of time and money yes it is a lot of extra stuff but not full game price worth

You’re welcome!

[@purelelez]

Battle - Destruction at 1:49:10 really feels like you're fighting against the inevitable destruction of this world, and maybe, the universe as a whole. Because no matter what happens, everything will be destroyed. Either by Shiva, or by you.

[@amirgarcia547]

Shiva’s theme is honestly one of my faves, since it starts out calm and serene and slowly gets more intense over time, as if Shiva’s destruction of the world is growing nearer the longer you fight him. And with how difficult of a fight it is, I’m glad to have a banger track to accompany it lol

[@drowzee6076]

Battle for reclamation quickly became one of my favorite battle themes in all of megaten. The context of it and when it started playing made me so hyped and it's just stayed with me since.

[@Zephhi]

Legendary OST. Easily best of the year, and Kozuka really just is super special. Keep him on the series until he doesn't want to anymore

[@the_free_timer5011]

Shout out to the Demi-Fiend fight utilizing a remix of the SMT3 Random Battle theme, since random battles in SMT3 can feel like boss fights 90% of the time

[@S-treme]

The Canon of creation ost feels more you have eternal adventures until you get the throne The Canon of vengeance feels more personal and more aggressive since is more about personal reasons than for everyone sake.

[@pabloguzman8472]

its our vengeance for not having a complete game the first time. we are aware of the chaotic intentions of atlus executives who wanted the game to be releases ASAP

Game Awards are an absolute joke

[@HigorNicoli]

RIGHT??? DLC for elden ring was nominated for multiple categories, but SMT 5 not for a single one? Even persona 3 was not nomineed for Soundtrack

[@nr2676]

@@HigorNicoli Metaphor took all nominations, only because it's more popular (ride on Persona fans) and got huge marketing, while Team Maniax game is like always ignored. There is no way Metaphor have better soundtrack than SMT V Vengeance. Metaphor have only few bangers, rest is your typical generic fantasy music ala Fire Emblem. At leats music from SMT V Vengeance was nominated in Golden Joystick, while Metaphor & P3R not.

[@kakugowaii5854]

​@@nr2676you gotta keep in mind that Metaphor has been in development for 7 years or so, and there was a lot riding on it because Atlus is desperately trying to establish a third pillar, which was supposed to be Soul Hackers 2 but unfortunately that flopped. In comparison, Reload is a remake of an almost 20 year old game and Vengeance is a rerelease of a Switch exclusive. They wouldn't want to cannibalize the potential success of their new IP by having it share the spotlight with their already well established titles.

[@JuanAntonioGarciaHeredia]

They always were. Just a bunch of rich and old people who know each other long before anyone else and now they wont allow newcomers to share an ounce of glory

Yes Game Awards are joke. Players (or rather Chinese bots) choosen Elden Ring DLC, Wukong, Genshin Impact (a mobile gacha game from 2020 !!!) and other 2 chinese waifu gachas for best game of 2024. What a patalogy.
