Soul Sacrifice - A Certain Magician's Life Extended (1 Hour)

Developer Marvelous AQL SCE Japan Studio
PublisherSony Computer Entertainment
Director:Teruhiro Shimokawa
Producer:Kentarou Motomura
Teruyuki Toriyama
Designer:Keiji Inafune
Composer:Yasunori Mitsuda/Wataru Hokoyama
Song: A Certain Magician's Life
I take no credit For the creation so the song, but i will take credit for extending it to an hour.
Its a Wonderful song, sadly the Language is completely made up so there are no lyrics to put into this section. But mainly the song sets the tone for the beginning of "The Magician's" Life which was full of mystery and despair. The Waltz like melody to me flows well with the singer, its a haunting tune that really gets stuck in your head, thus the hour extension. As far as the editing process it was simple stringing the track together, a lot of copy, paste and listen.. Enjoy!

Its not fair that game like this got forgotten. This game deserve everything.

[@83dante60]

I want a console/pc port. This game deserve to be known. For the story, for the musics, for the menus, for the gameplay...

[@jaredalfred9785]

I keep coming back for the nostalgia .. good times

[@zaneomega2]

I wish ii could forget everything and start the story over again

[@0grilo0]

same.. still do it, but its not the same =p

[@roxas2474]

For a hunter clone the game was pretty fucking unique,and the story was quite good if you paid attention. Good lore too. I hope it get remastered or another game for ps5. From my understanding even with the "good" ending the cycle can never truly break until the twin gods and magusar are destroyed once and for all in a single timelinr

[@JackgarPrime]

@@roxas2474 I'd even just be happy with a remaster of Delta on the new systems. But a sequel would be even better.

[@marcusanthony9322]

I played when it first came out, dug up my psvita a few months ago to break hack it but couldn't find my games so forgot it for a couple of months. Was rooting through my garage and found one of my lost moving boxes that had my games in. The first game I booted it was soul Sacrifice, I had forget how much of a great game it was and now can't put it down.

[@lunoinverse]

The man's voice in the 'chorus' really adds a feel that the singing comes from your blighted arm, filled with tormented souls...

[@forgettable8300]

One of the most underrated titles its a shame

[@AbuAli-ff8yh]

I honestly agree This game is a masterpiece only a few know of

[@123darkelf]

Fainthearted Jabare that’s always the breaks with a system that becomes niche, any titles on there get fucked over a bit, which sucks to high hell since for some reason the only vita title to get any remaster was ac liberation, which I find strange since soul sacrifice also could be remaster territory, better than it dying on the vita.

[@remedyr4545]

@@123darkelf Gravity Rush got a remaster too and was made by the same studio, a damn shame this wasn't

[@123darkelf]

Jacob Toppi oooh fuck you’re right...daaaaaaamnnn iiiit! I never got to play gravity rush but soul sacrifice needs that remaster!

[@jbennett1391]

I remember years ago I played this game quite a bit. Such an enticing and sad story along with the compelling gameplay. This game would be amazing and make huge profit if it were revamped onto modern consoles with maybe extra content.

[@mersyy335]

So true.

[@Tigerbro6]

a damn shame japan studio got shot in the head by jim ryan's leadership. It absolutely ruined any chance of this game ever getting a second chance. And specially now that monster hunter is a household name it would be a perfect time.

[@mospeadanine6898]

actually...Magusar is one cool character..perhaps even cooler than sortiara herself..and this deep dark magician culture of society with staggering details is so unique yet lively..way better than anything ever seen..as i believe some true stories might have been part and parcel for the beautiful design of it.. salute and thanks for this wonderful game..by the way, comparing this game with the Capcom's Monster Hunter is like oranges to apples ..it's a false comparison. Both are masters in their own domains...imho.

[@jackjohnston8048]

It killed me when it did the reading of the voices his arm was saying from her. I immediately went back and tried to save her 5 times

[@yumitho2832]

Ohh Man ... You are a pretty holy person

[@kurosan0079]

I hope I'm not the only one who was pissed off when you are required to sacrifice Sortiara in order to progress through the story. :/

[@BoydTheMilkmanX]

I'm not. It's part of what made it such a good story.

[@Miketopus.]

Jerome Bustillo I trying Saving her like ten times before I figured out you just can't. Haha.

[@SebastianSkadisson]

Talking about fiction that's already pretty phantastic to talk about, but my personal take is, if we hadn't sacrificed her she would've gone mad, seeing that she actually loved the protagonist. She would've become an abomination for other sorcerers to hunt down. So in a very very psychopathic way we actually saved her with this sacrifice.

[@DarukaEon]

@@Miketopus. Saaaaaaaame!

[@CARMINE_YT]

It would be awesome to add a side story like DLC where you don’t have to kill her

[@bluedragon2701]

もう7年前...次回作、ずっと待ってます！

[@GioPrime1]

I listened from start to finish and I love it !!! The lady's voise is so beautiful , I fell even more motivated to save up for a ps vita and get soul sacrifice !

[@AngelKyoX]

You'll be pleased to know that Soul Sacrifice is still free for PS+ Members, so hopefully by the time you get one it will still be free. If not its still worth a purchase. Story is really good and it does sets itself apart from Monster Hunter and God Eater game-play wise.

[@reverseangeldragon1748]

[@VervainVanity]

*Sigh* Sometimes I wish I could sacrifice my friends, but I don't think I could put up with their voices stuck in my right arm forever...

[@Black7308]

"Friends"

[@PaladinfffLeeroy]

[@vincenthawthorne9360]

Wait you can hear their voices?

[@123darkelf]

Paladin Leeroy oooooh fuuuuuck, at that moment I would try chopping my arm off.

[@danieloftamriel]

Every day I hope a show or a sequel will get announced, but alas that might never happen.

[@waleedtheXIVth]

It would definitely translate incredibly well as a show.

[@hod-avb]

just wanted to say that this is not latin but a self-made language

Desga should give it away

[@Belisarius536]

Did this song put anyone else to sleep when playing SS? Its so hypnotic, i could barely make it past the menu

[@xemnass]

For real. It is similar to "Tie the Link of Arcus", "Beneath the Mask (Rain)" and 'reading of books in Skyrim' effect

There was a young artisan in a village located in a far away country who made clothing for dolls. He was target of constant insults and mockery from his peers, and thus he isolated himself as a result. One day, a curious princess from a nearby castle observed his craft with great interest. The princess cheered him on the passion and dedication for his crafts, and asked him to make a dress for her. The artisan, fighting against his doubts, decided to make the dress. The princess, mesmerized with his talents, fell in love with him. However, the boy did not want to reciprocate her feelings. Heartbroken, the princess desperately threw herself at him. But he never wanted to return the devotion she had. The artisan made more dresses for her, one prettier than the other. All of them with an unique detail, and something that made them special. But the love was never there, until one day. From the oblivious artisan, he became a possessive madman, and kept the princess locked inside his atelier. He discovered she was the perfect doll. The one which he wanted to keep at his side for the rest of his life. The princess sudden fell into great sadness, as the artisan she fell in love with was now keeping her as a prisoner. She managed to escape from his jealousy, but he soon found her. As he lashed out on her attempts of running away, she was forced to kill him in self-defense. As he was about to die, a silver chalice appeared in front of him. "Pay me the price, and I shall grant you your wish", a voice echoed. He wanted to have the perfect doll. But in order to have it, he needed to have the perfect clothing. Thus, the artisan offered his atelier as a sacrifice. The place where the princess found her true love became her own deathbed, for she was transformed into a mannequin. He believed she wasn't perfect, after all. She was flawed. A girl so needy and insecure she throwed herself at him for a mere few dresses. The princess was not the only victim of his search for the perfect doll. In time, several other noblewomen shared the same cruel fate. The artisan, nowadays, traverses the land, still on the look for the perfect bisque doll that could fit the dresses he makes.

Is it one of those languages that people make up and stuff, is what "conglang" means? I really do hope there is a meaning behind the song, cuz I really do like it. Hopefully, make it a lullaby for kids? Ha ha!
