  • Hope you enjoy the horrible bitrate on this recording. Also holy shit man, this fight was so fun. This expansion had STELLAR battle content across the board. Story was solid too in the last 2 areas. | Interesting that Phase 2 is nearly 6 minutes long since we will only hear it for 2 or so minutes in the fight... must be for the Minstrel's Ballad version ay'?
    0:00 Phase 1
    3:33 Phase 2

    Phase 1 despite being a super intense version of Alexandria's theme embodies a sense of sadness with more orchestral instruments and choir at times which is a perfect fit for Sphene's plight on her end as she embodies both a desire to save her people from past (orchestra) and present (techno)
    Phase 2 being a so much more grandiose version of the main theme with it's orchestra and rock instrumentation is a perfect fit for Wuk Lamat standing up to Sphene as a wake-up call and still doing everything in her power to show her that the now can be better than she thinks.
    Kinda makes it being a victory lap theme alot more morbid

    This was a fun fight. What was most funny was that on my first go, at the phase 2 only 2 tanks (me and other player) were left alive. And we brought her from ~40% to 0. Other people were like "oh no, tanks are at it again", but as fight progressed and we kept going, those exhasperated sighs of people wasting their time, have changed to legit cheering as we got further and further. Nothing makes you feel like you're achieving something when it's only 2 of 8 people standing and against all odds, you clear fight. So music was very, VERY fitting the moment.

  • @Fimbulvetr
    @Fimbulvetr Před 7 dny +6

    Second phase doesn't match the tone of the fight since it's an extremely tragic moment that's the culmination of a woman desperately trying to keep the memory of her people from a doomed world alive. Not sure what they were going for here. Is it because Wuk is here? Are we supposed to be hyped by the entrance of the most obnoxious character since what they did to Lyse?
    Edit: a typo lol

    • @Sylfposts
      @Sylfposts Před 6 dny +4

      Makes more sense if you see this fight (and the second phase) as two reflections fighting for survival
      Also why tf does everyone hate Wuk so much?? She ain't the greatest, granted, but she's not half as bad as everyone make her out to be. Maybe I like her more bc I was playing with JP voices, so she felt more like a shounen protagonist, but still. Lyse was so much worse

      @@Sylfposts overexposure. She was glued to your hip for 95% of the expansion, and a lot of character development for other characters fell by the wayside in favor of more Wuk Lamat screentime.
