You Saw It Coming - A Persona 5 Orchestration

[@Cane-Aubright]

Joker: *snake voice* futaba, I’m trying to sneak around, but there’s an entire orchestral band following me at every turn!

[@Kernog]

I love it. Despite liking Last Surprise and its intro, the battle theme can get quite annoying when you chain battles. This one could be an awesome alternative theme. It starts calm and slow; not too much noise; perfect for short battles. Then, it goes crescendo just when the battle begins to be drawn out, in order to bring in the epicness.

[@KoryLunaa]

Quick, ask ShrineFox to make an alt music mod

[@protogon2978]

But this sounds so like a boss theme! This deserves being a boss theme!

[@kara-mari9909]

@@protogon2978 is it though?

[@retrorebootmusic]

With easy enemies, like a whole group weak to gun, I try to have the fight end with an all out attack and make the victory music kick in before the last surprise vocals.

[@prometheus-ii7030]

Eh, I like the normal intro. If you're quick and lucky, you can end the battle with an all-out attack by the time the initial flourish ends.

[@guillaumechabaud-proulx2014]

At first I was like wow this is nice but later on when I started to understand the skill required to make it it became amazing

[@danielpierce9343]

I have never played this game...yet. But I love your orchestrations and I have to say this sounded fantastic. It had that panache and a stylish flare to it that makes this so enjoyable to listen to on loop over and over again. This is brilliant and great work Rush.

[@Cryothia]

Daniel Pierce I hope you eventually do choose to play it. Persona 5 was my first Persona and it is amazing. Looking back, the only gripe I have with the game is that the characters don’t really do anything outside of where you meet them, and that confidants don’t affect the story, but it’s still a very good game with a great story (and it has an amazing soundtrack.) Highly recommend

[@danielpierce9343]

Cryothia Thanks for telling, been considering whether or not I should play since I haven't played prior games in the series. But after hearing this, I probably will likely get the game when I have the chance.

[@RichardEdits]

Daniel Pierce it's a lengthy game and I dumped 110 hours before I beat it the first time. But I can say with certainty it is one of my favorite games now and I hope you enjoy the game as much as many first-time persona fans (including myself) did

[@ZakSaturdayLover11]

Play it! You won't regret it 👌

[@VluggeJapie59]

Neither had I but it now my number one recommendation. When I recommend it to my friends I even go as far to bet that they will think they got here money worth and if they didn't I would repay them the price back in triple. I love the game so much and it is just so good. One of de best games of all time and definitely one of the best this generation.
