Final Fantasy 6 - Ending (Orchestrated)

[@Joe_334]

Very beautiful, how Celes' theme intertwines with the Forever Rachel theme, and then it brings closure with Locke's theme. He was finally able to move on.

[@AppreciateMuch]

When I first beat this game in 1994 it felt like the biggest, most unbelievable accomplishment, I didn't want it to end. I haven't played video games in many years, but this always makes me feel happy.

[@omarghosheh1988]

I've been listening to this orchestration for almost 10 years around xmas. its a tradition

[@edseiya]

Mario RPG was the game that made me get really interested on RPG games (i hated before that lol, find them boring) but Final Fantasy VI.. that was the game that made me LOVE RPGs and this ending theme is the best ending theme ever

[@marcelleboeuf9891]

same for me first rpg ive love are mario rpg and after i have know some game named chrono trigger and ff6 and wow rpg are awesome !!!

[@TheBl0rp]

I also started with SMRPG (and heard Culex' theme before FF4's boss theme), but it was Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy 6 that cemented my love of JRPGs... but I've mostly been disappointed since then and can't find one I like enough to finish...

[@baka-crossing]

Despite how many games I've played and beaten, this is still my favorite of all time. No matter how much time you spent using each character or even caring about them (Umaro's pretty hard to care about), they all get their own nod and bow at the end. Everyone will have different themes they associate with more strongly than others, but it's difficult to not know each character and their theme despite it. I cannot recall any other game whose credits theme incorporated the cast into it directly.

Punch-Out!!

Super Mario RPG

[@douglaconti7113]

Youre all crazy hes right. Best game ever.

[@archagenteverlasting1239]

Uh, excuse me, Umaro had the most lore and the most complex arc. Him learning how to stop following Mog, an abusive overlord, was such a powerful moment. Mog, meanwhile, learned how to stop being a tyrannical dictator just because his species was wiped out violently. Deep.

[@baka-crossing]

@@archagenteverlasting1239 You might remember better than me, but I could've sworn he only had a handful of dialogs which included the line "(Alright, boss)" where he gets formally recruited as the last thing he ever "says". So I wouldn't say he escaped servitude per se, but it's a vast improvement from having him hulk out and attack the party.

[@TheLunarSavant]

Final Fantasy VI (Or as most of us Americans originally knew it as Final Fantasy III on the SNES) was, in my opinion, one of the greatest games from the whole series, and was definitely the pinnacle of my own childhood gaming.

[@RPS_FFRK]

18:00 Please stand up for the national anthem. Haha

Best part

[@davidedrada6427]

RP S The true national anthem for all video games. Even Pokemon games, TV shows and movies would agree with this.

[@vashe999]

I just love that ending theme, the part with sabin/edgar and even more, the part with shadow theme are amazing

[@artemtchirkoffskii7450]

Yea, Part with Shadow is Amazing!

[@joetvr4003]

Cid Alderlaine it’s beautiful. Like, I can see him still, (partially due to me beating this easily 30 times..) “Baram...it looks like I can finally stop running...”

[@Red-zf3el]

Truly a wonderful thing how a game from so long ago can still pull my strings I we 12 when I beat this game and ran to my dad like omg

[@rugalthreesixteen6812]

I just love how Gau's theme (a powerful but somber song that really grabs your emotions) is followed up by an even more powerful theme in Celes that grabs you again from one high to another.. I compare it to the powerful emotional scene in Spider-Man 2 where Peter Unmasks to Dick ock and they have their mentor to student moment and he makes the sacrifice which is powerful.. Followed by immediately by his reveal to Mary Jane Watson which is equally powerful

[@nahum67]

Exquisite version. Delightful and wonderful. Outstanding cover. I'd might add, a drum or two at the end, because that was part of the dramatic effect of this song. The moment Setzer grabs the rudder, look at the player and say "to the infinite and beyond" and disappear... drums are crucial. At least for me, that part always give me shivers. This song is amazing.

[@That1PissedOffBoomer]

Three words to the channel owner-I love 💕 you!!! This made my day. This is easily one of my favorite songs of all-time. Subscribed!!!

[@diznanl]

Really, really lovely. Love the work you've done! Timpani is the only missing ingredient and this would have been near perfect!

[@kylnightfurythedadgamer]

Oh my god thats beautiful.

[@drhercouet]

Amazing work, well done :)

[@phildog2000]

wonderful

9:10 reminds me of the first time i played and killed shadow (didnt save him), much sadness

[@shnglbot]

Really well done!

[@HighwindIV]

Awesome

This is how it would sound like if FFVI gets a 3DS remake, and I want it to happen.

[@derricgreene]

***** I would buy a 3DS for that reason alone.

[@Zematus737]

[@Cryptoji_Jojoji]

8:19 - 9:55 :'(

[@inglesparanoob5350]

Bravo! Magnifico! Muahahaha!

[@SamTheRubberMan]

This is nice but it's very lacking in percussion and that becomes resoundingly apparent when Cyan's theme resurfaces around 13 minutes in. The percussion crashing you back into assurance under the waves of those horns and Cyan saying this is the fastest ship around is to me what really makes the end so charming.

[@thepsynergist]

Yeah, I should redo this. Gotten a bit better since then

[@coughKidd]

epic !

[@osamuinoue3285]

my life is now at heaven! (/ * - *)/

[@HighwindIV]

Great song! How are things with you?

[@jinratgeist]

I just ended up scatting the missing percussion myself. :D

[@deralsanchez7769]

8:18 😍

[@mogemulation]

I rather like this, and I've "Like"d the video too, but I have to ask: Do orchestras lack an entire percussion section in your universe? Because the timpani part of Gogo's theme in particular is like *the* defining characteristic for the character's theme, and yet they are entirely absent in your "orchestrated" version. In fact I'm jumping around to various points in the song, and I can't hear any percussion section whatsoever. What's the deal?

[@thepsynergist]

I just didn't have a percussion section. I made this five years ago, so I forgot the reason why I didn't include one.

[@ShadowIncarnate6]

Where is the percussion?

[@Wiggymaster]

I like it, but I do have one complaint: percussion... where is it?

[@My2Cents1]

This is arranged, not orchestrated. Big difference.

[@lentilsonlent1761]

It's not even that, it's just the SNES music file converted and imported into garage band

[@Unreliably]

If it's so secret then why are you talking about it publicly?

[@etharchildres3976]

Ok, some parts are great but they kinda botched the last ending bit. When Setzers theme is supposed to come in it should sound BIG AND TRIUMPHANT not toned down.

[@thepsynergist]

Honestly I should remake it as I have definitely improved in the last 8 years.

[@etharchildres3976]

@@thepsynergist I would very much like to listen to that

[@Direwoof]

Can you please make a orchestrated version of FFV's ending theme?

[@artemis3120]

It's nice hearing this orchestrated, but honestly, it feels like the performers are just going through the motions. There's no emotion, no drama... It's a bit of a disappointment.

[@thepsynergist]

I'll be sure to hire a real orchestra once I get $100k. Until then, I suppose samples will do.

[@artemis3120]

***** Oh, so it's all sampled? Well, that's fairly impressive, but it definitely explains why it's a bit lacking, compared to an actual orchestra. I was wondering! Good job, then!
