I hope you enjoy this piece from Darkest Dungeon II.
Leave a comment and let me know what country you're listening from.
Greetings from the danish in the dead of night
Welcome home Stuart, such at is. Thanks from France !
Currently listening from Japan.
Love DD II OST just as much as I loved the first game's OST. Thanks for your good work!
Much love from Argentina, can't wait to hear this in the game!
Greetings from Russia, finally the second part of the game about my country!
Slowly, gently, this is how a great soundtrack is released.
the highwayman just looks so done with everything
can't blame him
Poor Dismas(
If it was up to him, he might find the prospect of oblivion a release. But he knows that he's got no right to decide for the rest of the world.
Well if I'm reading it right, he lost his buddy Reynauld.
"It is what it is" kind of guy
@@RorytheRomulan DLC: "GOOD NEWS"
" A little hope, however desperate, is never without the worth. "
“In crisis, no gain is insignificant”
"slower your guard, soften your gaze, it is safe here."
I had played the game for barely 1 hour and I was already subconciously whistling the music. Thank you for this mister Stuart
That's awesome. I like music you can whistle.
@@StuartChatwood I too frequently whistle your music; thank you for so much of it!
@@StuartChatwood That's the mark of an iconic soundtrack which you've definitely created for these games. Thank you and you should be very proud of your work!
*"A moment of respite. A chance to steel oneself against the coming horrors."*
Everyone knows the best way to clear your mind from the eldritch horrors is with a warm meal and a mug of ale.
It’s the little things
Oh boy, it's time to spam playing cards and pray i don't get negative relationships :D
"A simple mathematical challenge."
"I'll shuffle."
"Never let soldiers play for money."
"No sneaky fingers dealer! I'm watching!"
"Was this your card?"
"Have i ever explained you the symbols on these cards?"
"A pleasant distraction or a tool of divination."
I like how every character has now an unique attitude.
The plague doctor is just lost on it's own thoughts..
The grave rober is already used to this.. to the death and the bloodshed..
Dismas is just dealing with all over again.. preparing himself to endure another dying friend
The man-at-arms is that old warrior, resting his body as he knows the combat would be brutal
Great analysis
Wdym another dying friend? Only tell me if it's not part of the 2nd games lore.
@@Murky-Murk Dismas was in the firts game with Reynauld, a Crusader, both are the first characters you play in Darkest Dungeon 1
@@Murky-Murk
well...there are two important character that isn't present in this game. You need two sacrifices for the final fight in the first game. The original two out four heroes are present in this game, and one of them have been with the crusader since the beginning of his journey on the old road.
Take a guess.
I'd say more that the plague doctor is overly rationnal to flee from the hard realities, but you can feel she lost some of her mind;
The Grave Robber has that hopeless feel of "I've quitted everything for treasure, and now I am the last hope of a money-less society". Such bittersweet in her!
Hasn't Dismas found some redemption?
I love so much the Man-at-arms back story. The selfish rich officer that is haunted by his own incompetence, and now he has to fight like the mediocre soldier he was. But in the dark corner of the Hamlet, he found himself the soul of a true hero.
Dismas and barristan always ends up being lovers in my playthrough lol
Oh look, more music for my D&D campaigns.
Stuart, you've done the world a service today. Thank you 💜
More to come!
1 year left to get to play this game. (No PC, planning to build one)
4:04 this melody... this melody...
That riff at 4:04 is a critical stress heal
What I really like about this piece how it runs parallel to the campfire theme from DD1. I love how it emanates a pervasive sense of weariness, fatigue and gloom in lieu of the sweet and delicate peace of a campfire.This thick atmosphere where the proverbial walls creeping in ever closer and closer as the light threatens to dim at this dilapidated shoddy inn
This song, feels like coming home on 2017. I was poor, my girlfriend was sick, my job was soul destroying and when I got through that door the damage stayed as I crumbled into my chair.
Hmm, how to describe it? It has both a feeling of respite, but also this bleak "How long do we have to do this, until finally something changes?" feeling to it. The last part especially sounds like the local church quoir is singing to encourage.
I think saying that this is a great piece of music is both superfluous at this point and a massive understatement. Waiting in Germany until 1 a.m. in the morning is definitely worth it. Hope i can still sleep and are not humming the melody in my head all night.^^
Since the Heart of Darkness is canon, they have probably been on this road for far too long now. The road to ruin is filled with despair, and even in death your struggle will not end.
Well, giving how they always look like they were in the lobby after failed a hard stage again, you were right.
Stuart. With this the Inn feels more like a place haunted by the heroes that have come and gone in the service of the player. The Inn feels less like a place of respite and rest and much more like a gate to the afterlife, like it's the last place so many heroes drank their last before setting off on the expedition that would take their life. So many have left this place and not come back, certainly it is only a matter of time before your last visit to the inn arrives.
Your work has always communicated the themes of the game so well but you nailed it here, making me see an Inn a way I've never imagined before.
Brings tears to my eyes for some reason. The feeling of world coming to an end. Flawed human beings gather what strength and hope is left within them to fend off the devouring evil that spreads relentlessly across the land.
These soundtracks are such a huge part of the games immersion. They really make you want to keep playing more. Cannot wait for the full release!
Beautiful theme. It sounds romantic, nostalgic, wistful, sad, and hopeful at the same time.
This is honestly one of the most hauntingly beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard. I can't stop listening to it. And I'm not ashamed to say it brings me to tears. 10/10 mate.
Thanks for the kind words. This cue is one of my favourites.
still my favorite piece from dd2... the atmosphere is just soooo gooood, i listen to this very often. i personally practically consider this to be "dd2's theme".
I can't tell if the characters are actually moving in their idle animation or if my brain's just filling it in because now I expect them to move so fluidly.
Either way, this is a great theme that conveys the sense of temporary hospitality that's much welcome in a ruined world. And the main theme being in it is just epic.
They move a bit when he cursor is on them with an inn item ready to use
We're all like Dismas while listening this meanwhile Stuart would be like Barristan
Circle in the dark. The battle may yet be won.
You’re an absolutely amazing composer! The amount of atmosphere, world-building, and concept you are able to design and weave into your songs is truly astonishing.
This track oozes Lovecraftian ambience with even a hint of witcher with the strings. I feel like for these characters, it’s but a small but uncertain respite from the horrors of the road. I can’t wait to get this game
Woah. Not going to lie, so far your pieces have really stepped it up from great in DD to amazing in DD2. This still has that vibe of a long-awaited yet transient downtime of A Brief Respite, but is much more complex, intricate and emotional. Really amazing thing you've made here.
"A moment of clarity in the eye of the storm...."
-The Ancestor
This one is fantastic. Very somber and wistful. Perfect complement to A Brief Respite from DD1. You can feel the tension and weariness of the adventurers as they steel themselves for the gauntlet ahead, doom gnawing at their nerves.
Yes, a continuation or reference to A Brief Respite was one of the intentions of this track.
Ever since I heard this game would have a more "hopeful" yet still desperate tone, I was eager to hear how you would cover this feeling in the soundtrack, and I gotta say, you did a damn good job at it. Keep it going man.
ah yes i always like the Hamlet from the first game, now this, a perfectly music for an inn, it soothing me for all the chaotic mess that i've been through in the dungeon makes it so much worth it
Can't wait to hear this Stuart. The main theme was fantastic
What I feel about this :
"This is the music that I want to hear when I've reached my home after tiring work, and cold rain, sitting on a couch near the fireplace, but realizing that I have to do work again, probably until the end of my life"
Huddled together around the hearth, relationships strained to the breaking point, do well to collect yourself here. A spark without kindling is a flame without hope.
So characteristically "Darkest Dungeon"... So hopeful... Yet another fantastic track. Thank you!!
Excellent theme remind me of Gaunter o' Dimm Theme from the witcher series , hats off to you sir
Sitting here in Sweden listening inside the house in +22°C on your amazing Soundtrack for Darkest Dungeon II.
You have masterly putting tone, tempo and music to "Deal with the hand you have been given no matter how bad" is such a fantastic way.
The Winding Vally music is so hitting me so much on the emotional level.
Just got the notion that im in my later years have started to get "allergic" to being exposed to the direct sunlight for just some minutes.
Sun finaly shines on my part of the world and i can only go out in it while fully dressed.
The Sadness in the tune, but faint hope in it is just how i feel atm. It could have been so much better but also alot worse.
Thanks for supporting my music. I look forward to visiting Sweden one day.
your work is amazing!!! 🤩 anxiously waiting here in Brazil🤯🤯🇧🇷
Thank you so much!!
Another piece from the genius composer awaits us, rejoice!
Ever since the early access launch I've been hoping you'd post more of your amazing work. I've been looking forward to it!
Oh god this is so amazing. You feels so much the sad nostalgia of a crumbled inn in the middle of atrocities, just a glint of respite between the abomination, treason and helplessness. That feeling when you've traveled through the cities eaten by fire fanaticism, finally arrived at the inn, just play some card game to forget the uneasy companionship. Feels so deeply "hot and cold", bittersweet like nostalgia.
Amazing work, the game is so promising for an early access I am in love, been waiting this since so long!
Every time i have got some vibes from resident evil series music in safe room. Well done!
If I could only see what goes through a composer`s mind in the process of creating a piece like this... It has always puzzled me - what happens in between the silent moment he grabs a blank sheet of music paper and the moment when the music invades the minds of the audience... Although you too could never peek into our minds and see how your music makes us feel the first time we collide with, at least I hope you get our word for it, Mr. Chatwood! Thank you for the wonderful experience!
I've heard a lot more tracks from the game itself, and I must say, they are pure aural eargasms, pure bliss. Combined with the Wayne June's narration, your intro track set the atmosphere so well in depicting determination in the face of gloom and despair
The soundtrack's you create are amazing. The sadness and tragedy, and the hope behind some of them. Greetings from Portugal!
honestly it feels really good listening to those tracks out of the game, to properly apreciate them, they go so well with the rythm of the game. its like it is making one with it and you just apreciate it all as one piece of art, but that music could tell the story on itself. amazingest of works
I bought the game a few hours ago, and beated it in my first journey, your music inspired me and my characters, i will wait for new chapters to release, and carry that Glimmer of Hope onward with your masterpieces Mr. Stuart. Thank you, your music is in our hearts and minds.
This sounds like if the characters are losing hope but still clinging to what is left, like if they are unsure if they can save the world but still forcing themselves to keep on going, thats the feeling i get from this piece.
With how Highwayman has his head slumped over like that I think he still quietly mourns Reynauld even if his stress is zero
What a perfect emotion this track brings out, it enriches the inn so much. I take my sweet time in here because for me, just like the heroes, this is my only time to really close my eyes and just take it all in. What a great piece.
Can already tell I’m gonna love this soundtrack as much as I lived the first game’s one. Do wonder when this’ll be out on Spotify so I can add every track to my playlist.
"Lower your guard, soften your gaze, it is safe here."
Once again absolutely stunning, the world has another masterpiece of storytelling in game and music in its midst. You guys knocked it out of the park with this one, and it wouldn't be the same without your score. Thanks from all of us
highwayman : "how can i pay my bills "
Oh dude... Cant wait! Greetings from me and my wife from Poland.
sto lat!
@@StuartChatwood Get some drink and Na Zdrowie!
The music is very mature in its style. Its really kinda.. depressing you in a good way. I know it sounds weird but those are my feelings. Im happy that so far music is not dissapointing, cant say the same about the game :(
The one dislike is from a game journalist that lost all heroes in the tutorial.
Beats to chill/vibe/regret the failures of your past too
Please get this ost out of my head. It has held me hostage since release of early access
Im so happy you did the music for the second game
Oof. Definitely going to be writing my thesis to this. The field hospital is also one of my favourites thus far; I've just sat there idling while it goes.
1:18 ooooo that string gives me Witcher-like shivers
genuinely, the thing i was most excited about when i heard about darkest dungeon 2 was that we'd get more incredible tracks from you
listening to this from india :)
I am glad to see you back for the sequel. Always loved your tracks
I absolute admire how masterfully this soundtrack paints the athmosphere of the moment.
Even in this short period of respite from the madness outside of these walls, there is no true peace of mind. The melancholy reminds you of the horrifyingly tragic transformation the world we knew has undergone, and it might never return back to the old times, and the slight undertone of uncanny portrays the feeling of dread that sooner or later, we have to return to this hellscape perfectly.
As it managed to make me tear up, I can easily call it one of my all-time favorite videogame music pieces. Chef's kiss from Belgium, absolutely pristine!
I got my head inside the characters minds for this. I can't imagine the mixture of emotions one would have after arriving at the Inn.
The melody at 1:18 really reminds me of a portion of Gaunter O'Dimm's theme from the Witcher 3... Fantastic soundtrack.
Shout out from Portugal! A Brilliant confluence of melody and rhythm !
Not a day goes by where this doesn't play in my head since I picked up the game at launch. Phenomenal work conveying so many emotions in an instrumental piece.
Stuart, you’ve outdone yourself once again, you magnificent composer.
It's always so tempting to stay at the inn for just a little while longer to keep hearing this.
after months it came back to me
this and the main theme have the same kind of leitmotiv as some of the beginning of terror and madness
Very astute listening skills.
I need an hour version of this in my life. also please play this on my funeral
There is a longer version out there. I might release a longer official version once the game is released. "Tabletop Edition" for dungeon masters to use...
Gameplay 10/10
Narration 10/10
Music 11/10
Damn, this is good. Much more "epic" than the Hamlet theme, as if the stakes are even higher now, but so are the chances of success.
"Overconfidence is a Slow and Insidious KIiller"
i would rather compare this theme with a brief respite (camping theme) than the hamlet, this track brings memories to that song
Easily one of my favorite tracks across both games. It sets the mood and atmosphere perfectly. I could feel myself getting pulled once more into the game world as the track played.
Incredible work Stuart.
Thanks a lot for your work, this song is really awesome !
From France, with love
Feels like an advent calendar getting these one at a time. Christmas came early this year!
It does! It's nice for us to meet up every few days so I can check in on everyone.
Truly - wouldn't be a Darkest game without you
Another masterpice. Apocalyptic with small amount of hope. I can hear a little atmosphere from witcher 3. I love how its change it have that illusion wich make it darker and darker and then hope and again darker darker and hope. Nice job i have all your work on my playlist keep it up !
All the music is amazing, a huge leap from its predecessor. I can't wait for the next soundtrack.
The subtle accordion is perfect.
France dude, I don't think it would be good to listen this sound when you're sad. What a masterpiece of feelings !
I love everything I heard from Darkest Dungeon 2 OST so far
A relaxing tune worthy of a lengthened rest after fighting unspeakable hordes of monsters. Loving this soundtrack so far, I tip my hat all the way from Uruguay to you, Stuart!
I'm from Russia. The atmosphere that your music creates, is just incredible! Thank you for your work.
From Mexico, just wanted to say you freaking kill it with every single song, not much to say, amazing job
Yet another banger from one of the best composers I've heard for a game
One of vidya production's biggest rules: if your save room / safe area / save screen theme cannot be made into a 10-hour extended version, you have failed as a composer. This one obviously passes that test.
I’ve noticed a demand for extended versions from the first game and I made some of the new cues longer. 10 hrs though…that might be zen like.
Stuart, this is magnificent as always. Listening from Russia, love your work since prince of persia, keep up keeping up!
I like the dark but yet relaxed theme of this one. I love DD2's music!
Thank you for Uploading this one
I'm from Turkey, and I love your work, man. You and Wayne June are the soul of this game.
just heard this in game, great job stewart little!
Thanks for listening
@@StuartChatwood By any chance do you have transcription of the violin in this song? hell i'd pay for it
Mr Chatwood, it seems like the game has made some changes to its core theme. And the music has evolved alongside it. It's great listening to it! Love your work!
Listening from India ❤️
Darkest Dungeon II is even darker and more haunting than the original, and the music really keeps me wanting to play more.
Love Your work! Waiting impatiently!
I finally got the game on steam and by God the inn theme is so good to listen to. Had to go back to the store page and buy the soundtrack
I have no idea how it happened, but I realised that somehow, in a twisted sense, a turn to major in this melody is not a resolution. Mechanically it is, but due to all the minute details (like keeping the melody oh the dominant instead of moving to the tonic) it doesn't _feel_ right to end there. Despite whatever gain we might find, the solace is not staying with us. Even in these walls, the darkness holds dominion.
You are one of the reasons that make this game great stuart thank you. Game certainly wouldn't be same without you.
"Great heroes can be found even here, in the mud and rain."
The music is what creates the atmosphere in darkest dungeon, thank you for the fantastic music.
Hello from Poland Mr. Chatwood. In this track I can hear your experience and easiness in creating memorable and masterful tracks. For me you are no. 1! Thank you very much for your beautiful soundtrack full of different emotions from misery and pain to hope.
I’ve been looking forward to hearing more of your amazing work since I saw the teaser for this game. Such a somber yet hopeful peace with bits and parts of the Main Theme. I can’t wait to hear more.
the work and affection you have for this game is impressive
