Octopath 2 will blow your mind, I dunno how they did it, but they somehow managed to surpass the first one in literally every single aspect of the game
Except music. I like the first one's music more. But yes, 2 is equal or better in every other aspect.
Is as good as the first one, but not better, in the aspect of music. Some music the first one even better. But if you talk about the suitability from the gaming aspect, or the theme that fit in to their story line, they improve. But in musical aspect, is a tough call.
I think that one is a bit subjective but what I do love is how the character themes in OT2 are juxtaposed to the OTI characters, they are thematically opposites and even the final boss themes mirror each other in a way, a male tenor vs a female soprano.
@@nerdzone tbh. I liked the ost in 2 better but both are good.
@@nerdzoneI think the first game’s soundtrack is more instantly hooky and ear catching, and the second game’s soundtrack is a bit deeper and more of a grower - but once you fully get into it it’s magnificent. Either way Nishiki is a master at his craft - the new Uematsu imo
Fun fact : Title theme was two songs at the beginning. But since they liked both, they put them together to make a single theme.
This was Yasunori Nishiki's first solo project. The music was composed with the constraints of old consoles in mind, and he actually made an official album of 16 bit arrangements to prove it. Check it out sometime!
I’d HIGHLY recommend the ost for “Bravely Default”. The entire ost is just AMAZING.
Oh my gosh yes!! Bravely default has so many amazing bangers I'm surprised that it's all on a 3ds
1000% agree.
I love that you guessed who Primrose is from the first 15 seconds of the theme. That means that the composer did his job immensely well.
Also, about the themes looping, most of them would be different variations of ABAC.
Tbf, she is the only one who looks like a dancer lol
The first Octopath Traveler was released in 2018.
Two years later, its mobile game released on Japan.
Three years later after that, Octopath II was released.
And somehow, they all shined on music.
“Battle ll” from this game is my favourite ost of every game ever
shame They Who Govern Reason wasnt here
The first thing I said when seeing that video: Please have They Who Govern Reason… then I saw your comment… shot down immediately🤣😭
Luckly, the ost is full of bangers nonetheless
Daughter of the Dark God was, so we good 👍🏿
THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking this request ! Despite the flaws, it's easily my most favorite game series in recent years. Daughter of the Dark God is peak JRPG-boss music. Hope you will do and enjoy as much Octopath 2 too !
Have you listened to "God shattering star"? From fire emblem?
Yes I hope she does Octopath 2 as well!
I’ve never seen this take anywhere else, but I personally interpret the vocals in Daughter of the Dark God to represent the boss, while the instruments represent the party. At least to me, it sounds like they’re fighting and I love it!
Unfortunate that you missed They Who Govern Reason, but the entire OST bops. So does the sequel's.
best ost of the game, litteraly
0:04 Title Theme
2:46 Grandport, City of Commerce
5:07 The Coastlands
7:06 Primrose the Dancer
10:00 Redemption
10:45 Decisive Battle II
14:12 Battle at Journeys End
18:25 Daughter of the Dark God
The chord progressions in Battle At Journey's End are immaculate.
Octopath Traveler easily has one of the best soundtracks ever made, no hyperbole. It is gorgeous from start to finish, and the sequel does not disappoint in this department either.
I think this is bound to be a hit for anyone who has even a smidgen of fondness for orchestras.
Octopath 2's Vide, the Wicked and Those Who Deny the Dawn are peak OSTs as well
The issue there is Square has been going on a copy strike spree with anyone releasing Octopath ost
@@tmonster1852only if it is music only, there is a OST playlist that has gameplay in the video so it doesn't get taken down
@@tmonster1852czcams.com/play/PLf9GGFFS3CIHl3i0RyPJHEAOazNmw6oae.html&si=SksQ9Ia76nxZ1vIR
The final theme and the reaction is everything i have ever wanted from these OST's - finding that theme takes you completely off guard leaves you breathless
I would´ve loved watching you react to the secret bosses themes, "Those who govern reason", it is simply majestic, and an experience you should not let go!
Literally the best song in the game. It sounds like the violin strings were going to rip with how crazy they were playing the instrument
Olberic's transition into Decisive Battle 2 is the best. Fight me.
UNBENDING!
I like it a lot but I like the dissonance between For Truth and Decisive Battle 2 leading into each other a bit more.
It's really good but personally I love Primrose Transition more, probably because her story is more impactful to me
So glad you’re taking a look at Octopath, it’s the anniversary of its release today and both 1 and 2 have some of if not by favorite OST’s in gaming
I wonder when she will react to octopath traveler 2
I would definitely recommend the music of bravely default 1 and 2 after this one, the game is made by the same studio as this one and the music is just as if not even better
Absolutely seconding this one. If she lost it this much over Daughter of the Dark God, then I imagine she'll absolutely melt over a certain track from Bravely Default II as well.
The whole OST is gold.
You could several videos reaction to all the other songs and the OCTOPATH TRAVELLER II OST and every single fan of the games out there will watch it. The game and its ost is that good.
Octopath travellers audio design is so good with the character themes and all battle themes designed so you can flow smoothly between the character to battle at any point of the character themes loop.
Masterpieces all. All it took was the title theme to get me to buy it.
I seriously hope you do the second game. It’s a serious step up, and that’s not easy to do.
You’ve GOTTA do Octopath traveler II. The soundtrack gets better!
So fun thing about Daughter of a Dark God, it's part 2 of a two part superboss at the end, part 1 being called The One They Call The Witch, so you go from that into Daughter of a Dark God, and it hits so much better
Do Not forget the Bridge in between: "Moment of Truth" 😊
This game has one of the hardest final bosses I've ever fought in gaming. My heart has never beat faster during a boss fight then when Daughter of the Dark God kicks in at phase 2 of the boss and I know I'm almost there. Truly an amazing game with amazing music
I forgot to mention when I originally made this comment, but by "almost there" I meant "now comes the hard part I'm gonna lose"
I think the really hard part Was that you couldnt safe after the bossrush or phase 1, even tho my fight with phase 1 was absolutely crushed in round 1 every time I tried, I only stopped trying because it was so annoying getting to galdera again, and again, and again, and again ...
@@artlover4444 Actually same though. I never beat it because there was no checkpoints and I didn't want to grind to be super overleveled so I gave up. I want to try and beat it someday though, especially if I want to play Octopath Traveller 2
@@leomatic6158i’ll have to go back myself. Such good music but takes a while to climb there
Your :mindblown: expression at 13:20 mirrored a lot of us as we first played through the game. All the boss battle themes in this game have first and second endings, and they blow the tension sky high: everything you thought you knew about the music, and by extension everything you thought you knew about the boss you were fighting, is suddenly out the window. It's one of the reasons I think "Octopath Traveler" has the greatest video game score of all time.
(And in my opinion "Decisive Battle 2" is the LEAST interesting boss fight theme, so I'm glad you got to hear some of the others!)
Gurl you’re gonna love it! The preludes for them are sooooooo good and only get better in OT2
Your reactions to the Octopath OST are phenomenal! Pretty much felt the same way when playing through the game!
Definitely check out the other 2 Octopath OST: Champions of the Continent (CotC) and Octopath 2! Yasunori doesn't MISS!
CotC has 'Against the Elite', 'Decisive Battle 3', and 'Those who Await the path of Desire' .
And anything from Octopath II slaps!
2 also have great OST, so you should listen it too!
Octopath Traveler just might be my favorite series of RPGs ever. The writing, the characters, the music, the gameplay, the world; just *chef’s kiss*
octopath traveler 1 and 2 are one of my absolute favorite rpg games and one part is because of the masterful soundtrack and now that you have listen to 1 you MUST listen to 2 i hope to see your journey to it IlexEmily the musician
PLEASE do a video on Octopath Traveler 2. It's still my personal choice for Game of the Year and has one of my favorite, if not THE favorite, video game soundtracks of all time.
If you loved daughter of the dark God, you're gonna really love those who deny the dawn from octopath traveler 2
I know I may be a little late to the party but I just discovered the channel by watching your reactions to halo music!
Idk if you've considered, but I'm so sure you should listen to a few more OT (and OT2 for that matter) soundtracks, like Gate of Finis, that's SUCH a good one and is kind of the overworld theme before the last 2 battle themes
And listen to the more "snowy" themes, you listened to the more warm climate themes but there are so many others that are so good!
Anyways, keep the good work up, it's so good to watch you and listen to the music!
I can't think of a single track between Octopath Traveler 1 and 2 where I legitimately don't like it. Octopath 2 does some things with interpolation that gave me SO MUCH serotonin.
Octopath 2 has a fantastic OST as well! But it's hard for me to recommend many songs that stand out as particularly good besides the battle themes (which are always a good pick!)
Maybe Roque Island, Full Steam Ahead-, Wildlands Day-, Den of Darkness...
Edit because I forgot to say anything productive:
I bought this game not long after it released because I thought it looked interesting, but never got around to actually playing it til last year. I enjoyed the visuals, but I fell in love with the soundtrack so hard. It was infinitely interesting to me how they handled each character's unique music. Every track connected connected to a particular character fits them so well, they keep a unified theme, and it's mesmerizing to hear them. Where it really hit hard for me was the boss battle themes though. Like the way my jaw dropped getting to Therion's first boss and hearing his beautiful theme transition into an overwhelming and climactic boss theme was wild to me, I'd never been hit so hard by music before
So, needless to say, when I finished with Octopath 1 and shortly after found that Octopath 2 was coming out soon, I was so excited. I'm so emotionally attached to these games almost solely because of how well the music captures the characters and the locations that I fear I may have a heart attack and DIE if it doesn't continue
I do recommend listening to the boss music with built in transitions from the character preambles though. Hearing them separately is a bit odd, because they're supposed to move seamlessly between each other
i hope you can one day listen to octopath traveler 2's music as well! it blows me out of the water every time!
Hey I know you did a kirby theme video a few months ago and wanted to recommend the song "two planets approach the roche limit" all the songs were great, but it was definitely the most popular song when forgotten land came out
It's so nice coming back to hear the OT1 ost because after playing OT2, knowing that the first games soundtrack was just as good just makes me feel warm inside
Tx for reacting to octopath, please react to more themes of the game or octopath ll !
Please do Octopath Traveler 2 next, it's even better! Also thank you for listening to this, this game is one of my favorites!
Gotta see you react to Octopath Traveler 2 soundtrack. Lol
When your reaction to Daughter of the Dark God is to just be silent and laugh. I had the same reaction to it and it's sister piece.
Subscribed.
Also, Battle at a Journey’s End will loop a lot, because those battles are LONG - but so far, after getting through six of those eight battles it still hits HARD. Grandport tho… almost like a happy version of He’s a Pirate. IYKYK
really should do Octopath 2 now, it has (imo) even better music than the first. Also has a night and day theme for a ton of them which is super cool
Octopath Traveler and its OST are such underrated gems! Definitely some of my favorite music to work out to. I would definitely recommend to check out the Stardew Valley OST. It's super unique, chill and uplifting and I think you'll like it a lot. Plus its made by just one guy! Some of my favorites are "Stardew Valley Overture" , "Tropicala", "Dance of the Moonlight Jellies" (this one's so good!), "The Wind Can Be Still", "Raven's Descent", "Pelican Town", and "The Stardrop Saloon"
listen to octopath traveler 2 soundtrack. it’s amazing as well
Well, just discovering the channel, and looking forward to listening to more reactions to music :) and considering what you said, if you haven't listened to it yet, you might like "Herminia, the Covetous Witch" and/or "Master of Wealth" from Octopath COTC. Just like you, didn't expect to find what I heard then when playing (a mobile game of all things).
This OST got me shook, how dare it be so good
Can't wait for octopath 2 music
Also
Tales of Berseria
i still need to play it. i been holding it off since 2018..........
You should really listen to the Risk of Rain 2 OST, I truly think you’d enjoy it. Easily one of my favourite soundtracks ever. Especially the tracks “…con lentitud poderosa” and “The Rain Formally Knows as Purple”. Please consider
Redemption with the transition ending that you listened to into Decisive Battle II is pretty much as the two tracks are designed to be listened to, but Decisive Battle II is designed to play as smoothly from any of the 7 other character's equivalents of Redemption, and there another three or so boss fight themes that Redemption with that transition is designed to transition smoothly into.
(This is done via the transition music you heard at the end of Redemption, which the 8 pieces of are all designed to take Redemption and it's 7 sibling tracks to the key and BPM that all the boss tracks are in - even the optional boss track that doesn't need this transition system, anywhere in the loop that those 8 pieces are in.)
...Hm. Classically trained singer. Someone with the money to make actual requests rather than random comments here get Emily to react to one of the Ace Combat soundtracks. Because while I'm unfamiliar with the franchise, it's usually a treat to hear classical singers react to that series of games about fighter planes for the first time.
I've been waiting for this😍 please do the sequel
18:03 If you really want to, I could place a link for the 1-hour loop video.
For me one of the best ost from octopath traveler is : "those who govern reason" (and "for succor").
Amazing song the last one. But well, it is part of the "Octopath Traveler" ost. I suggest reacting to the "Fire Emblema Three Houses" ost, to "God Shattering Star" specifically, to be amazed.
[Daughter of the Dark God singing begins] IlexEmily.exe has stopped working.
I had goosebumps listening this music, and I told my wife about this song, she can't believe this is for the game.
No te conocía, menudo descubrimiento tus vídeos, gracias por reaccionar a una banda sonora como la de Octopath Traveler, te recomiendo que reacciones a la del Octopath 2 que también es muy buena.
Awesome!! Please do Bravely Default as well!
The fact that Octopath Traveler did not win the game award for music that year was the most disappointing turn of events ever for that year in gaming.
The composer was such a genius with his work that each of the motifs of the characters was written in such a way that it would loop perfectly into the battle theme. I believe there a few videos on CZcams that can elaborate on it.
Have you done Live a Live? I can also suggest Triangle Strategy.
random fun fact the composer for this game aslo composed for yugioh master dule the moble game and also did the monark theme witch also has clasical vibes the man is a fucking genuis seriously
Bravely Default I would heavily heavily recommend, specifically the four main character themes, Wicked Flight, and Serpent Eating The ground
17:07 attack on titan opening
I remember when I recorded I thought it sounded familiar but now listening back I TOTALLY hear it
We need a second part, she just Heard like 1/8 of the songs XD
Great reaction, as always.
If you like music that gets inspiration from all over the world, you should listen to the Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles soundtrack. It's an insanely unique video game soundtrack. The instrumentation alone is crazy.
Galdera: the only boss that I listened to its theme for at least 15min or so, without doing anything to progress the battle lmao. My God.
please I beg listen to the 2nd game as well. there is amazing tracks there too
too bad you didnt hear they who govern reason, it's soooo good
Amazing video as always. Your reactions are always fun to watch. Could you start reacting to some of the anime osts. Many animes have banger osts as well like bleach , naruto
And then... there's mobile game.
Which has the Sarzantos suite.
Spread across eight different tracks.
You don't have to this hard. You didn't have to make the mobile game ost THIS STRONG.
Octopath 2
Main Theme
All character themes
I highly recommend the Katamari soundtrack. Extremely great music.
You should return to this Tittle, or even the 2nd one. Octopath Traveler has Celestial Music.
There are AAA games whose entire OSTs aren't as good as just Octopath Traveler's title screen theme.
I recommend the "Sonic Mania" OST it very epicccc :D
Hm, don’t know much about the Game, but it sure has quite the Soundtrack.
22:16 classically indeed!
Not featured: The screams of anguish as you attempt the final battle for the umpteenth time. 😐
I hope you do touhou music in the future. The entirety of the series help caused the creation of undertale and all of its music. As a plus the creator of the series is very lax with the copyright for his characters and music which allows for anyone to create derivative works of touhou from song remixes to selling your own games.
For some song suggestions they are
Gensokyo the Gods Loved,
Broken Moon,
Maiden's Capprico,
Love Colored Master Spark,
Flowering Night,
Hartman's Yokai Girl,
and U.N. Owen Was Her.
She should have listened to river lands best track in my opinion
Alphyn’s theme = *pacha meme*
Bravely default OST PLEASE!
Definitely one of the best OSTs of any game ever. BIT disappointed this didn't include Frostlands, Riverlands, Alfyn's Theme, or My Quiet Forest Home, but hey you can only do so many I guess and every track is amazing so oh well.
Man, you look like the girl crying about the puzzle blocks going into the wrong holes.
I do hope one day you will listen to the ost of monster hunter world iceborne or monster hunter rise sunbreak
Some reccomendations for world iceborne include
Coral highlands
Rotten vale
Guiding lands
Seliana
Zinogre world version
Rajah world version
Iceborne theme
Nay! the honour is all ours
For rise sunbreak i recommend
Elgado
Lava caverns
Nargacuga rise version
Espinas theme
Shagaru magala
Malzeno
And both phases of amatsu
I guess I'll never understand why people are so in love with the Primrose theme. Sunlands and Clifflends but especially Frostlands are much more interesting than Coastlands. Also Requiem of the fallen is amazing. On a Knife's edge and Creeping Dread are perfectly disturbing. A Settlement in the Red Bluffs is extremely memorable. My quiet forest home such a vibe. All battle teams are just gorgeous.
...
And that's without mentioning the 2nd game's OST that is just as good if not better. Temenos theme perfectly reflects his reasoning for travel, Flamechurch night theme is so serene and soothing, Doubt is what I do have no rights to be as good as it is, Cait's theme has no competition and it's not all of them even!
If you think Daughter of the Dark God goes hard you should listen to Fertile Rondo from Bayonetta 3.
When will you play undertale? I just can't wait :D
Sad to say, the octopus are reserved for the second game!
This soundtrack is godly 0-0 , fire emblem 3 houses next ?
Please tell me the Sunlands is on here…it’s the best track in the whole game. Please search Arnaud Harp Octopath Sunlands his cover is incredible
Could you react to plants vs zombies tracks one day?? :0 the tracks slap so hard oh my lord😭😭(specifically the first game, second game, and both garden warefare games theres SO MANY hidden gems in there)
어둠신딸이 잘 뽑히긴 했지
At some point you should check out the second game's ost. It is arguable better in almost every way.
For the most part yeah, but idk man, Stolen Dreams Lost Light and Octopath 1's Battle 1 just hit different compared to Abandoned Village and Octopath 2's Battle 1. I also think Octopath 1 has better cutscene music (Enveloped in Kindness and Pure Evil immediately come to mind)
