[@BakuMamX]

its tap dancing! we wont explain why but… this is honestly my favorite ace attorney track ever. the situation it plays in made me tear up.

[@sonicloquendo]

The tap dancing is also reflected in-game. And is not France but 19th century's London, but you were close.

[@trilightning]

Well it kinda is France. At least when this song plays. Everything more would be a spoiler so let's leave it at that.

[@RoseSiames]

I mean technically it was France

[@Hexishu]

[@ottolehto]

You asked what makes Ace Attorney. I think it must be the combined package: great characters, funny dialogue, dramatic storylines, awesome soundtrack (which is true for all the games even if they often have different composers from each other - sort of like Final Fantasy these recent decades).

[@TheFrostedfirefly]

I know this is probably an opinions thing, but I'd agree with you for all of them except for 'Justice For All' OST. It wasn't downright "awful" but a lot of tracks from that game just straight up missed and didn't "feel right" to the ears. I dunno how to explain it, but it's literally the only game in the entire series where I really can't stand to listen to 90% of the tracks at least.

[@dbclass4075]

@@TheFrostedfirefly Part of the reason is due to having shorter development time. No one expected Ace Attorney to have enough sales to warrant a sequel.

[@noisepollution4473]

@@TheFrostedfirefly What, the Big Top theme wasn't enjoyable to you? (because sarcasm in text is hard I want to make it clear that song is miserable and plays for 90% of that entire case and it's truly awful that it does)

[@handsoaphandsoap]

​@@noisepollution4473 It's not a terrible track per se, like if it didn't play the entire damn case and there were moments of relief in between scenes with it it would've been a decent track. It's just poorly used by the devs since they shove it into practically the entire investigation portion of the case.

[@TurnArklight]

It WAS tap dancing!!!!!

[@Wuscheli0]

The reason this sounds too good to be bgm is because it isn't. A track of the same title plays in the game and it's awesome. But what you listened to is an official remix that was produced in celebration of the Chronicles collection and is only actually featured in the music gallery in the main menu. Anyway, it's a great remix and still carries the same vibe as the original, which was one of the most hype themes in the game.

[@ChiNguyen-ls6tr]

Music-wise, this duology is definitely my favourite of the series. ...wait. Everything about this duology is my favourite of the series 😂

[@catherine1756]

The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles is a masterpiece and has incredible music. I think it's a great introduction to the series but I personally think the mysteries are so good that they make games 1 through 3 look less spectacular.

[@xXFoiXx]

It is so interesting what people request for Ace Attorney. I would expect only Objection and Pursuit themes since I feel they are the strongest.

[@DayleDiamond]

Tap dancing is percussion in Riverdance!

[@sylyvie9868]

YEAH! The song I have been annoying you so much to hear haha! This, is Sherlock Holmes (Named Herlock Sholmes outside Japan for copyright reasons) Theater of Logic and Reasoning theme completed, why is this completed? Because you get to hear his partner part of it (Hence the "Partners" prefix), the tap dancing, better yet, you actually see the taps ingame and yes, it's amazing! Edit: In a way you aren't wrong per se, this game is set in London and Tokyo at the height of Industrialization of London, so ya know. And yeah, I love this visual novel series, it's not only incredible in logic it's got some very dumb moments that make me laugh hard, tho The Great Ace Attorney 1+2 in specific are my favorite because they lean heavily on logic and less fantasy

[@tornadoblade5]

It is tap-dancing! Which is genuinely so rad. When the game first came out in Japan, capcom released a video that shows how they recorded the original version of the song too. (I don't think youtube lets you put links in comments, but if you look up 『大逆転裁判２ －成歩堂龍ノ介の覺悟－』タップダンス収録映像, you should find it). And they didn't just use the tap dancer for the VGM, they also put the dancer in a mocap suit and ended up using some of the movements for the ingame character models. So much love and attention to detail went into this game in general, and it's part of what makes it my favourite game of all time. It was great to see you react so positively to this song.

[@cristheblob4020]

Wow! That's amazing

[@moonblood1721]

so happy to see my all-time favorite game (and one of my favorite OSTs) pop up on the channel!! honestly more music needs tap dancing as percussion. the moment in the second TGAA game when a certain character starts tap dancing in the scene as this song kicks in is one of the most memorable moments tbh.

[@aruarux937]

The name of the track is the game is afoot and they used feet as an instrument

[@weertangel7231]

I think the term u were looking for is victorian couse of its setting. The game itself is something of a prequel to the original series where u play a japanese law student who after clearing his name of a murder accusation(the tutorial lol!) goes to England to learn modern law and run into Herlock Sholmes(yes that guy) among other interesting characters. Its story is really good, u should give it a go if u want a relaxing game with a serious theme but also alot of comedy in it.

[@Pichu1232]

Yeah its tap dancing, Sholmes parrner tap dances and when they teamed up, that was his "dance of deduction"

[@RoyalCrustle]

I loved the music in this game a lot because it *really* reminds me of Professor Layton music. Unfortunately got distracted by some other release and stopped playing it at the start of case 4. I am totally going back to play the rest of this now that I'm trying to figure out what to play after beating Danganronpa V3. Feeling that visual novel mood right now.

[@renren5992]

if you haven't already, I'd recommend the famicom detective club games

[@dbclass4075]

Because Yasumasa Kitagawa is one of the composers for crossover and Chronicles duology.

[@ocarinalover1214]

something about the ace attorney universe, throughout many of its ups and downs, still hooks me to this day. the music, the characters, the emotions, and the set pieces all come together to show a story about overcoming the opposition no matter how bleak it seems, to have faith in yourself and others when no one else will give it to you

[@beowolf9480]

this is actually the arrangement of Partners, which is my personal preferred version of the theme

[@ShienZark]

I finished playing this game a month ago and it was truly awesome. Favorite ace attorney game ever and the soundtrack is just damn amazing

[@keeganwymer3145]

this song makes me cry, the two tap dancers and followed by powerful violin and accordion solos,, i adore the characters and what it represents for them

[@jamburrito]

ace attorney as a whole has incredible soundtracks but great ace attorney is on a whole other level, its genuinely one of the best OSTs ive ever heard and a masterpiece of a duology. partners itself is absolutely one of my favorite tracks of all time, especially given its relevance to the story. its so amazing, and that they managed to use tap dancing in such a phenomenal way is so impressive. great video :)

[@thechronodragon5678]

This game in particulars soundtrack has certain things like the tap dancing, alongside other ‘non-instrument’ additions like a glass resonating in another track, that just really help you get immersed in the game and its world. None of the songs are explicitly playing in-universe (barring one), but you can entirely believe that either the characters are hearing what you are in their heads, or that the tracks convey the mood of any given situation nearly perfectly.

[@ShallBePurified]

Ace Attorney is a series that is defined by the characters and the stories they go through, combined with a very strong sense of wanting to do the right thing. And it is at its best when the right thing is in a grey area. It's incredible.

[@EdgardoJCruz-dk5kv]

There was tap dancing and castanets too.

[@studio_1]

Ah yes, A track from the best Ace Attorney game in the next Ace Attorney duology.

[@mr.mystere4999]

I have a feeling you would really get a kick out of the entire soundtrack for "Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney" for the Nintendo 3DS. It's just that good. Every song on it is fantastic.

[@astr0fish132]

YES I can second this!

[@PixelTunes1010]

I adore this song so much I'm super excited to see you listen to it!!

[@austinsebben1402]

Something to know is that completely different songs from different games have the same name, like the Pursuit themes, for when you’re perusing lines of questions and the Cornered themes when you’ve cornered someone and discover the truth. The way to keep them straight is to know which game they’re from

[@TheFrostedfirefly]

Ace Attorney is a series on my list which I consider an experience beautiful enough to "experience again for the first time". Of course I can never truly experience the game for the first time AGAIN, but boy if I could... I think the only game I dislike in the entire series is the 2nd one, 'Justice for All' which might be a controversial opinion since it's part of the original trilogy but all the characters involved are still a special place in my heart, regardless. It sometimes doesn't feel fair to describe the series as a "Visual Novel" because whilst it's true and there sure is a hell of a lot of reading, and minimal "gameplay", it's hard to describe how literally no other VN is capable of capturing 100% of my attention and retaining it with so much life and energy through every sentence and sprite animation. I will say, I think half of it was a happy accident. In the gaming community, I'd say when things are "localised", a lot of people tend to heavily dislike it to the point that we will rejoice if we can get something that's practically identical to the original JP version. Ace Attorney is one case where thanks to specifically how the original trilogy was localised, a lot of western fans have ingrained that as part of the identity of the series, able to make jokes and craft new lore from something that's simply trying to adpat itself to make a certain sense. I think if in today's gaming climate, if the Ace Attorney Trilogy released for the first ever time here in 2022+, I think it'd be translated much closer to the JP version of the games, and build a decent little fanbase. However, I truly don't believe the community would be the same neither as LARGE as it is today thanks to the decisions made back then. It was just different times, and all I can say is that I'm so happy to be an Ace Attorney fan today.

[@Revoltine]

It's primarily because, for a visual novel, Ace Attorney is very interactive. Whereas most visual novels is 99% reading, 1% player input for progression, can sometimes make the plot branch off based on choices, the series is very linear and it requires the player's attention for progression (ideally, that is, since you can just click willy-nilly and see what works but that was not the intended game design).

[@icfolger97]

fun fact: the person who composed this piece wasn't the person that composed for the main line series but the person who composed for Professor Layton series.

[@icfolger97]

@@AC-qu9ng your right. i misunderstood. thanks for the clarification.

[@danaejay]

"Pointing is a big thing in this series" Not inaccurate!

[@ssjsylver]

The kitajoh remix of “when my mother was there” from P5Dancing has tap dancing ;)

[@yate0128]

🎩 👞

[@degapalgamer3772]

man that song was so awsome, and yeah that was tap dancing, might I also recommend you react to Quatera woods from YS 6, really love that game and the OST.

[@JoannEcureuil]

Ace Attorney is a diverse state of good vibes, it's hard not to like some aspect of any of the games. The moment this track (a version of it) is great, the building to the moment makes the payoff fantastic and the music compliments the moment.

[@hiccupasterisk]

This is not actually the original version of the song, this is a special arrangement/remix of the original song heard in game. Quite good, but not quite ever heard like this in game.

[@xZankiohx]

Please finish the game.

[@zerolifez]

It is in the game man, please finish it first

[@hiccupasterisk]

@@zerolifez I finished both games. This version is only in the gallery, but it doesn't play in the main story. Are you sure YOU finished the game?

@@hiccupasterisk You are right. Extended tapdancing intro is not featured in the game. I apologise.

[@95onimusha]

my dream it's that one day jesse will react to other armored core music. there are a ton of interesting ost in that franchise

[@SkittleXero]

Gonna need Ace Attorney's help because it's criminal that he hasn't listened to music from Killing Floor 2 yet lol. Metal as metal can be right there

Personal GOTY 2021

[@Xenonfuji]

Crazy given that they are 2015 and 2017 games

[@timothyharwood1941]

Thank you. Thank you.

[@DERvilllads]

here are some songs that i would like to see you react to: Guilty Gear Strive: Find your one Way and Armor-Clad Faith Sonic Adventure 2 Battle: City Escape, Live and Learn, Final Rush and Green Forest Warframe: We all lift Together Borderlands 2: Bloodshot Ramparts Combat I hope you would look into at least one of these listed above.

[@Sekainoowaride]

I like it

[@DualflowAOT]

You should absolutely react to some of the songs in Team Fortress 2s soundtrack, its some of the best VGM I've listened to. I would recommend it all, but the best of the 30 song are: More gun - Song used in "meet the engineer". Absolutely awesome guitar, need i say more A little heart to heart - Beginning of "meet the medic". listen to before "Medic!" Medic! - Best song valve has made, no questions asked Intruder alert - Intro of "meet the spy". Captures the essence of TF2s music The calm - Listen to before "Robots!" Robots! - starts off robotic, and slowly turns more and more organic Red bread - listen to in order from this to "rise of the living bread" (if possible that is) Dapper cadaver Seduce Me! Three days to live Rise of the living bread -- and yes i will keep commenting this until it gets noticed (5)

[@intraviator8694]

Hey, you should check out "The Cybergrind" from the Ultrakill OST. It's electro/metal and (Unfortantely) no one has done a reaction video of it.

[@hunterhunter5998]

I'd recommend checking out great Ace Attorney chronicles at some point (there's a lot to break down in the music) and then if you're interested, exploring the rest of the series

[@toadstool7729]

I wish you'd react to "Rise" from FFXIV. It's definitely my favorite song there

[@nathaliestiefel387]

Hi jesse i love your channel. You have such a warm soul and watch you playing my favorite game of all time ff7 makes me so happy! I'm from switzerland and my brother is a composer for videogames. Can you please react to my favorite song of him? Its called your contract has expired from the game a hat in time. Would love to see it :) thx for your great content!

[@VasalisErretti]

TLDR on the Great Ace Attorney: you play as the ancestor to Phoenix Wright, Rynosuke Naruhodo, a Japanese Exchange Student sent to Britian to learn law and how to be a lawyer. You encounter Sherlock Holmes (*cough* Herlock Sholems I mean due to localization issues *cough*), who he ends up living with and having him help solve mysteries related to Rynosuke's cases. This game is the most recent game in the series (originally 2 games but for the internation release they combined both into 1 game), and really shows in all factors, the music is fantastic, the character designs and animations are fantastic, the story both of individual characters and overall is fantastic. The only sad part is that cause of how good it is in comparison to the older games I'm not too sure how Capcom will proceed with another one as kinda feels like they topped themselves with GAA. (Not that the older games are bad, but simply that GAA is the cultimation of the company learning over the years and the freedom of something not directly related to Phoenix helped them alot with making it stand out alot more, and am not sure where they will go from here).

[@1andonlyt951]

You should listen to Rhulk, The First Disciple boss fight theme from destiny 2

[@jordandeadley360]

Slightly unrelated but I’d love to recommend Eggmanland (Day) from Sonic Unleashed :)

[@Garzaromera]

Does he ever do or could he ever react to music that is not from games, like a series? I would like if he was to hear Braveheart and Break up from digimon adventure

[@tavernadoromulo]

When is this legend going to listen to more Bloodborne music? Go for the Gehrman, The First Hunter or Laurence, The First Vicar. Sure you'll like it!

[@nataliispeaks]

for clarification, this is not the version that plays in-game, but a special arrangement they put in the extras that being said, the original version slaps too

[@Ialsas]

Can you react to Lost Ark OST : Dawn of Arkesia or Abreshuld Legion raid theme? 😇

[@spiroskarv8341]

I don't think you've listened to any touhou tracks have you? I'd suggest Solar Sect of Mystic Wisdom ~ Nuclear Fusion. Probs my favourite video game music of all time

[@vatsaldave2828]

Anyone think he should listen to Destiny 2 soundtracks?
