I finished Sky SC today and I can confirm, Merciless Savior is a masterpiece of a song. Side note: I'm quite disappointed Loewe died. Thought there was a lot of potential for a new found friendship with Joshua. Weissman can stay dead though!
@LowestExpectations10 ай бұрын
Nice! Yeah, it really is a masterpiece. Do you plan on jumping into Sky the 3rd now or are you gonna wait a bit? At least Loewe's death makes sense for his character imo. He probably thought of himself as a dead man walking considering everything that happened to him and the villains he got involved with, so he was willing to throw himself into mortal danger to prevent something terrible from happening (Weissman winning).

Because KZbin hates me because I say the no-no words 😂 Okay but for real, the only reason people would ever click on this video is if they search it up beforehand. This is still a niche series, and only the absolute enthusiasts would go for a video like this lol. I do expect the view count to grow over time at least. Aside from that, I'm glad you are enjoying the Trails content. I don't have any plans to make anything else at the moment, at least until Kai comes out.

A hard list to make with a series that has 1000+ different musical pieces including remixes and different arrangements, but you did include a lot of my faves (Just in different places). Unmitigated Evil is my fave boss theme though. Azure Arbitrator used to be it, but I just really love the main melody of Unmitigated Evil and how it's very triumphant and bombastic, but passionate and chaotic too and a perfect theme for the fight between Van and Gerard. I'm also a sucker for the neoclassical stuff. Unmitigated Evil could legit be an Yngwie Malmsteen track. You can never go wrong when it's a Jindo compositions with Masaru Teramae on guitar. As for some faves I would've included which you didn't...The 'super arrange' version of Fateful Confrontation called 'Maybe It was Fated', Exceed from Cold Steel, the Enforcer theme is one of my fave pieces too, but I think the super arrange for that one which plays during McBurn's fight in CS IV is the best version. Unfathomed Force, Perfect Steel of Zero, Intense Chase, Deep Carnival, Step Ahead, Belief, To Grasp Tomorrow. Just a handful of incredible tracks IMO. Falcom Sound Team JDK are the best in the business, that's for sure, especially when everyone's list and faves are so different from each other, it just shows how much amazing music they have which speaks to all sorts of different people.
@LowestExpectations4 ай бұрын
I chose not to include arranged tracks or anything that wasn't in the main official OST for each specific game, otherwise this would have taken a lot more effort and time to make. Unmitigated Evil is definitely an amazing boss theme, and yeah, if others made this list, none of them would be the same. There's so much great music across this series that pretty much any top 100 is valid.

All great choices. I only have "Cry for Me, Cry for You" in the honorable mentions because I'm not a big fan of most of the vocal songs, but "Whereabouts of Light (Hoshi no Arika)" is my favorite of them. Merciless Savior was a no-brainer for #1 for me though. 😉

I actually found some of the boss music in Reverie to be so mid that I downloaded almost all of the awesome boss tracks from older Trails games onto a thumbdrive and played whatever track I wanted for the boss fights. Seems like certain talent in Falcom were definitely released and the music tracks have suffered. I think I'll be keeping my USB for the foreseeable trails future >_>
@LowestExpectations11 ай бұрын
Yep Jindo's "Heavy Violence Match" is the only good one imo. "Perfect Steel of Zero" is alright too, but that's about it. I've heard that some of Reverie's music were songs that were previously unused for past games, but I don't know how true that is.
@Negajoe11 ай бұрын
@@LowestExpectations Ah, I can see Perfect Steel as something intended for one of the final bosses in CS4. I'd actually recommend people try my thumbdrive tactic, it adds so much more gravitas to certain fights and customized enjoyability picking appropriate boss fight music instead of just hearing the same one or two subpar songs constantly. Although you obviously don't need to do this for the last boss in the corridor. You let that track rock with blasting speakers.
