  • Luigi's Mansion has amazing sound design! From the therapeutic sound effects, to the creative use of the soundtrack. I will explain why I think the sound design is amazing in this video!

    I believe the idea is that Luigi is humming a catchy song to himself to calm his nerves, but his nerves are transforming that song into the booming tune we hear in game.

      if he is low or medium hp the music becomes slower and luigi is more terrified on low hp he sounds like he's about to faint@@ShaneMGD

    • @Sean-qg3gg
      @Sean-qg3gg Před měsícem +23

      Another take I saw on it is that the extra hums we can hear in the background are the ghosts singing along, always behind him.

      @aquaticcentaur291 Před 16 dny +9

      This actually makes a lot more sense when u realize that luigi just whistles without backing instruments in a cleared room when the lights are on and he knows he’s safe i’m that room, but once he steps out into the hallway where ghosts are and it’s dark, he gets nervous and then the music kicks in!

    Something someone pointed out: in the Credits, when it gets to the whistling and you have headphones/earbuds, the left is Luigi, and he whistles fluidly and rather well, Mario in the right actually doesn't whistle the song as well, which is why Luigi laughs and Mario says HEY! :) what an amazing game

  • @epikthread8494
    @epikthread8494 Před 10 dny

    Some more details about the correlation between Luigi and the music:
    If there's a ghost in the room Luigi's in (not counting hallways), you can hear ghosts humming along to the song.
    If the room is lit up after all the ghosts have been cleared out of it, Luigi whistles the song instead of humming it, and he seems to be at ease.
    When Luigi's health is low, not only does Luigi sound more scared as he's humming, the music is also slowed down. Not by much, but just enough to notice if you listen closely.
    In a lit room with low health, Luigi will stop humming and bend over with shaky breath.
    Anither thing I like is that whenever Luigi is outside the mansion, such as in the courtyard, the low strings that play the bass notes of the song are replaced with a harp.
    I absolutely love the sound design in this game, easily some of Nintendo's best work tbh

    Sometimes when enter in some rooms with ghosts and there's no music, you can hear little strange sounds like it was creatures doing that but if listen carefully you can notice that its the theme song of the game with strange sounds. And also on a different note the game boy horror song slaps.
