The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion - 26 - Peace of Akatosh

[@gamerscurse1]

I just remember those long nights, cuddled up in my blanket in front of the t.v., it's 2 or 3 in the morning, and this song would come on and i'd feel this... indescribable peace. like I was truly home in this game. how so many of the songs in oblivion did that to me is something I can't explain, but I know this: I've never felt a greater serenity in my life

[@evarlaastii]

Thats deep man.

[@cacomeat7385]

same. This game made me and my Xbox One... until I played it on PC and installed mods! I did that, hooked my PC up to my TV, got a controller and man the hours spent is unreal. Bethesda are practically my family, so fucking excited for Fallout 4 (different series with a less serene feeling though)

[@Elchupanibres]

+PixelReviver well cant compare them other then the sense of adventure FO4 is a shooter and not very "fantasy" as Oblivion is, dont get me wrong both games are great, even IF oblivion is awsome :) and the soundtrack in oblivion, i am in heaven when i listen too them

[@joshuabrandstetter6574]

i feel the same way love this song

[@bariuznorway]

Had excactly the same experience as you with this. Getting out of those dark caves into the open landscape, and this comes on. Just stood there enjoyoing the view with this indescribable peace inside. The real world faded away, my small CRT TV and my headphones became reality. Pure magic!

[@warlockdruid]

This song is timeless

[@thoughtsanddreams2555]

Warlock97 The game is timeless.

[@R0ckmans]

Doge Mc Doogies But the dialogue sure is not. But this game was my introduction to TES and holds a special place in my heart.

[@KingCheesyPants]

The whole game is a work of art, the graphics, the music, the storyline, the atmosphere. All of it is so beautiful it makes me cry.

[@emperorsithisilith]

I just love the elder scrolls. But oblivion will always be the best to me.

[@hulkeith13]

The Golden King Exactly!

[@PinacoladaMatthew]

The game let me submerge myself in solace and peace when I was suffering from a major depressive episode a few years back....Those dark and chilly wee hours when I was playing....damn...

[@Fatigueisfat]

I think a lot of people hold this game close to their hearts. So beautiful, it's complete perfection and I wish I lived in Tamriel with this background music

[@NoxForest]

never played Oblivion but this soundtrack makes me want to.

[@CapsTheArbiter]

Guardian of the Night If you get the chance, do it. Its the best in the series.

[@jakubszwed5468]

It’s been 3 years, have played it yet?

[@NoxForest]

@@jakubszwed5468 yh a little bit. I just feel it's too outdated to play now.

[@jakubszwed5468]

@@NoxForest Ah, bummer. You should download some mods, they really enhance the game.

[@NoxForest]

@@jakubszwed5468 I got it on ps3

[@theace8502]

I've seen a ton of comments say that Jeremy Soule came up with this song after a car crash. I've never had a near death experience so I wouldn't know, but it must've really shook him and made him very reflective based off the somber, melancholic, and sometimes straight up angelic tone of the ost.

[@jacobmilner4616]

Everytime I hear this song, I just think of the beautiful night sky in that game. Its very calming, and I suggest everyone to wait for the night sky and listen to this song.. Just do it bbbbbruh...

[@heyitsleo]

Bethesda always makes the night sky beautiful and perfect

[@SockSucker]

There's just something about 2 moons in the sky

[@dakotahurt597]

I wish this was on spotify

[@oblivion_tube]

Weirdly enough it’s on Apple Music I wonder why

[@Crude-Spoon-Wielder]

I played this game in January of 2023 and despite skyrim being my first elder scrolls i've got to say oblivion is the best elder scrolls game without a doubt. The story is better, its more immersive, Its simple but unique, perfect soundtrack. I remember coming back home after a long day at school and loading up oblivion on my series x, it really is the perfect game. And it really felt like there was a huge world out there.

[@c.evans1804]

Has it really been this long? Have 14 years really gone by?

[@oblivion_tube]

Nope 18

[@timesupea]

in the long ages of myth, before the beginnings of record history..

[@ChakaWhatTheDovahkiin]

Whenever I hear this, I picture myself walking through the Shivering Isles at night, and seeing Crucible and Bliss in the distance. A few Dark Seducers are walking ahead of me on the path, and recognize me as their lord Sheogorath. At their salute, I cannot help but feel lonely and sad remembering the Madgod's last words to me as he was engulfed by order. As they leave, I summon Haskill to ease my conscience. Together we bask in the beauty of the Shivering Isles, as it is what Sheogorath wills it to be.

[@altothedragonborn5005]

ChakaWhat I haven't played shivering isles, but my god do I want to now!

[@kirouma4846]

Its the best dlc ever, the story line is incroyable and this map.. OMG

[@-Songbird]

**sigh** _"Yes, my lord...?"_

[@SockSucker]

When the world eventually comes to an end, I hope this lives on, its such an underrated part of the soundtrack

[@cladiosanchez6865]

this brings back my first trek across the shivering isles, and just looking up at the sky while this was playing. makes me remeber why I love gaming so much.

[@gjallarhornblooddethxplosi5787]

YEEEEEESSSSSS!!!

[@agnosobosovo9775]

Soothing enough to make you forget about the whole crisis happening around you.

[@aurelioiii5858]

It has already been over 12 years since it's release. Time waits for no one :(

[@papasmurf3037]

Reminds me of going into the unknown and finding bandits of some sort.

[@DeadBeatDex]

Bandits are like Randy Orton, They come out of nowhere.

[@carlosdowns3852]

Just beautiful

[@Maruragakari]

great song

[@jerrycervantes2434]

The times I spent just having the game idle waiting for this to play. Such an amazing track.

[@boubix]

One of the best vgm I've ever heard. Riding at sunset on the top of a cliff may have influenced me.

[@AetherealGirl]

This song reminds me of standing just outside Anvil at night, in the pouring rain.

[@ultimatelobato]

i remember this beautiful game,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,beautiful

[@isaacbryce2748]

I've got a big thing for the Oblivion soundtrack, my favorite song is on there, but I think this song captures the heart of the soundtrack much more, and it's much more than "hehehoho vidya gaem". In case you don't know about the history of this soundtrack, but Jeremy Soule almost died while he was working on it. Pretty sure it was car wreck or something, dunno for sure. Point being: he should have died. After that, he scrapped all his work on this soundtrack & rebuilt it from the ground up with a completely different perspective: For Soule, this soundtrack channels his appreciation and love of life. -and I think this song captures that more than any other. Whenever I listen to this, especially at night when all is quiet, everything seems to just fall away, and not in a bad way. All of the details & noise of everyday being just feels so superficial in that moment. When I listen to this, all that fades into irrelevance, all that remains is is the heart of why I love being alive.

[@RazielDark]

a masterpiece.

[@fallbackearth]

Beautiful

[@_essence_07]

3:27 best part. especially when its night time and you hear the wind blowing and other ambient noise. whenever this song plays in game i just stop and listen.

[@DarknessOfRedbone]

I was only a year old when Oblivion came out. This was actually the first video game I played.

[@Sternertime]

Godly

[@KingCheesyPants]

Sigh, i had to come back to this video to reply to your comment and i heard the music in the background. This should play at my funeral.

[@Krisk012]

I always thought there was something beautifully haunting about the music in Oblivion. Anyone else feel similar?

[@XenoNecromorph]

Reminds me of looking across the whole of Cyrodiil from atop the mountains and hills

[@COLR13]

Wow

[@-NGC-6302-]

Makes me wonder how good the music will be in tes6

[@yanami1241]

It wont be good because Jeremy Soule won't be the composer

[@TonyG0317]

This reminds me Age of Empires II when you lose :DDD

[@suoreoni]

Why is this not in spotify?

[@jaktje]

El Señor de los Cielos lolziez, it's from Oblivion dude :D

[@thebigdug]

I think this is the song that sometimes plays on Geek and Sundry's Critical Role, but I'm not entirely certain. If somebody knows, please tell me. I don't want to sit through a five hour session in hope to hear the song

[@jaktje]

El Señor de los Cielos woops, wrong tagged! haha!

[@naterobertson7289]

i never played oblivion so wat happens to akatosh

[@alannadelaney1949]

peace

[@Torgomasta]

Akatosh gets released and sends Mehrunes Dagon (the antagonist of the game) back into Oblivion before disappearing.

[@paleriderpalehorse55]

This particular track has heavy Halo Vibes

[@konstantinivanov7475]

Oophoi anyone?

[@ultimatelobato]

its true, im playing skyrim now :)

[@ultimatelobato]

i know this is oblivion music i have the game

[@koesmin7610]

This reminds me of Braveheart.

[@KingCheesyPants]

lol

[@Dusty1400]

this is oblivion music. not skyrim check your privliage

[@KingCheesyPants]

I have no fucking idea. Your channel name intrigues me though.

[@francisromell805]

I really like this song. But then I realised that this was kinda copied from the actual song called 'Hymn for Dusk' but sped up by 200%. But eh i don care :).

[@anonymousalien7417]

That's awful. I used to respect Soule's music, but now that I know that he copied a song 14 years before said song was even made, I no longer respect him. How dare he

[@oldmann240]

Who the author of "Hymn for Dusk"?

[@juliannetraven5168]

Do you have a source for this? Because I've found the song you're referring to but it seems to have come out in 2020?

[@AetherealGirl]

And that's funny because...?

[@jacquescousteau3194]

not my favorite

[@JeanBaptisteEmanuelZorg]

this one I hate
