What I think really sells this moment is how Shulk reacts. Up to this point he’s been mostly calm and collected. But in this scene he has a full emotional outburst filled with fear, anger, despair, and hatred. It all mixes perfectly with the music and the actual death of fiora to make a truly godly end to the first part of the game.

[@nyxiiine]

Opinion: this version is better than the one they made for Definitive Edition

[@TheRebornExpert]

Please elaborate.

[@nyxiiine]

@@TheRebornExpert First of all, a reminder that this is my opinion. And to be clear, I like both versions. Now that that's on the table, here are my thoughts: I prefer the original one because the remaster has some minor differences that I don't like, and they happen to outweigh the differences I consider improvements. The lead guitar in the original is very crisp and clear, but it gets overshadowed by the bass guitar in the remaster. There's a slight offset in the remaster's timing that irks me. I'm not super well-trained in music theory, so I don't have the language to articulate it, but it sounds wrong and I don't like it. The opera singer in the remaster sounds too trilly at times (credit where it's due, that takes skill, but I'm not a fan), and also overpowers the lead guitar, whereas they sound nicely balanced in the original. There's probably more I could add, but it's late and I need sleep.

[@Solarasthma]

The definitive version elicits a feeling of triumph, this one elicits desperation. That's why I feel it's better.

[@_bimgus]

Yeah, I feel that the opera singer near the end of the definitive version was kinda overpowered in the audio and quite frankly, not really necessary

That’s probably my favorite scene in which this song plays for 2 reasons: 1)It holds so much weight, especially considering how much of an asshole Mumkhar is shown to be up to that point, yet Shulk still feels differently. 2)It’s one of only a few scenes in which the song plays all the way through, along with the first visit to Prison Island, the duel at Valak Mountain between Dunban and Mumkhar, the duel of gods between Zanza and Meyneth at Mechonis Core, and between phases against Dickson during the revisit to Prison Island. In all the other scenes with this song, it either gets cut off or transitions into the fight.

[@kisnettpicart7830]

Remastered vocals sound like something epic is about to happen, but the OG vocals give me "this is your fate laid before you by the gods" type of vibe

[@sethhoeffner6814]

That's why I prefer this version over the remastered one. I think that the more high-pitched vocals (especially when the one high note is stretched out) take a lot of seriousness out of the scenes in which this song plays, which are meant to be more dramatic, making it sound really out of place and silly by comparison. Thus, I'm not a big fan of the remastered version.

[@gordiathevans]

This game has plenty of very great OSTs, especially this one, which actually became one of my favorite JRPG OSTs. But there are several OSTs that sucks too here. Yet the OST placements in this game is not that good, and 70% of the time you hear the OST where you got aggro-ed by the enemy and Monado changing the future during battle, and these two are my most unfavorable ost in this game. At least Mechonis's battle theme rocks, but is still pretty much being overshadowed by the BGM where the enemy aggros you.

[@soniccinos5236]

Its literally the ultra instinct theme but less meme and more good and no ui melody lol

[@samfisher5056]

Mechon It's not over.. The people of Bionis will never let you triumph... Even after all these years this phrase accompanied by this music still hit me.Thank you Nintendo for this treat and can't wait to play 4 times in a row Xenoblade Chronicles 3

[@sheikah_warrior216]

I haven't really played the game physically, but I have watched a full play through on it on KZbin. Now that the game is getting remastered for the switch I'm so getting it! Time to watch Mumkhar get what he deserves again in HD.

[@lucario774pika]

You mean HD?

[@cloudythoughts9864]

I guessing you watch chuggaaconroy let's play

[@sheikah_warrior216]

e, my mistake lol. I just noticed it, sheesh I'm dumb.

50% of the comments: i love this music The other 50% of the comments: I SWEAR I WON’T STOP UNTIL I HAVE SCRAPPED EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU!!!!

[@JlBUNROCK]

Understandable that line goes hard

[@liambullock2057]

I’ve just reached the halfway point in the 3ds version and I have no problem playing it all over again on switch! Absolutely incredible game! Amazing story! Superb voice acting (especially from shulk) and ABSOLUTELY GOD-TIER MUSIC!

[@themonadoman116]

“I’LL KILL YOU!!!” “Can I... save them?” “Of course you can.” “I swear I won’t stop, until I’ve scrapped EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU!” “I know all too well that desire for revenge, and the pain of losing those close to you. This monster is going down!” “I am now a mere shell. The power... is already yours. Think of your enemy, and the power to defeat them is yours!” “I will strike you down and all that you have become, you wretched fool. The monado will stop you. And then you will know the shame of all that you have done, TRAITOR!” “Would you really be willing to kill another Homs?!” “Yes, sometimes needs must!” “...Even if it’s Fiora?” “And who decides that? A GOD. Because ONLY A GOD MAY DECIDE. MAY YOU ROT IN THAT SHELL FOR ALL ETERNITY!” “Shulk, true power... comes from within! Believe in your own true strength, Shulk!”

3:00 this part is SOO FUCKING GOOD I cant get over it. It gives me chills to this very day they use it so well this part alone makes it the best song in the game.

[@cbo44]

This song has one of the best sotry tellings of the game, at first you engage the enemy, and the guitar creates tension, the piano then takes the stage and represents the ideals for which you are fighting, then the battle really begins and the violins represent the way you approach with little success, then a voice, representing destiny, arises and it frightens you for it signifies this is where you die, the enemy is too much for you, and then when you start really losing your grip until a soft piano reminds you of what you must do, and you decide destiny is not written, that voice no longer frightens you, it empowers you. Destiny can be bent. And then you fight on 'till the end.

[@ringothefly1017]

I like how similar parts of this song are to Counterattack from XC2. Playing this after I played XC2 and realizing the references and inspirations is just amazing.

[@yoran4067]

Yeah, Counterattack is basically the Engage the enemy of XC2, but less sad

[@garlayntoji8389]

I actually prefer the original soundtrack than the DE one. I still have goosebumps when listening to it and almost makes me cry.

[@Renkencen]

The track is literally instant drama music in a good way!

[@Fading_Rain]

I came across this song through the Xenoblade stage in Smash 4 and thought it was so beautiful that I listened to it a LOT during school. I'm talking almost on the daily for a hot minute. I don't have a single clue about the context for it in Xenoblade but damn is it a good song.

[@bero3427]

Bruh pick up Xenoblade DE, the og soundtrack can be chosen in the settings which this plays in. There's so many hidden gems in that game, the ost is definitely my personal number one.

[@TM521HS]

Play the game

[@thriftstorechicken3395]

[@aleoferdie]

And you talk of sharing this world with me?!

[@theshadowofsiege7559]

Xenoblade DE remake of this is amazing

[@PoppiQTPi]

"I'LL KILL YOU" is such a quotable line that my friends and I have said it 157 times in the past month via text That doesn't even count the amount of times we've spammed the soundboard

[@MrAroiko]

This brings me so many memories... what a beautiful game, can't wait for the remastered version!

[@jnrosenb]

This song, together with the first cutscene it plays on, is what made me think this game was something special. First time entering Gaur plains is what confirmed it.

[@alexandrelaforest5838]

i just finished xenoblade 1. bruh moment thats literally all i can say. like the whiplash from thinking this is a game about vengeance against dumb robots to writing the damn bible in the skies of the universe

Indeed, that's why Xenoblade is PEAK FICTION!!

So nostalgic I love this song

Every time I hear this song, it always makes me emotional.

[@championkai182]

I think I just tipped the scale. Before I clicked on this, it had 999K views - now that I’m on the vid, it says it has 1M. This is also, coincidentally, the 900th comment. What are the odds?

One of the best soundtrack ever written in the video-game history!!!

[@Kagoo98]

Let's all be happy! According to Nintendo, more than 90 tracks have been remastered or re-recorded. The first XC Original Soundtrack includes 91 musics and songs. That means EVERYTHING has been reworked. And Nintendo Australia/ New Zealand told BOTH VERSIONS WILL BE ON THE CARTRIDGE!!!!! That will be 182 musics + all the new stuff from the DLC Future Connected. MONOLITH SOFT I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!!!

Goodness this song seems to fit every EXTREMELY tense scene ANYWHERE. Best picks I've seen so far is the moments just before Titanic has her fatal impact or the runaway James during the Adventure begins. The latter fits EXTREMELY well like... This song is a MASTERPIECE.
