"Getting more country rock in vocal" does track, that is what Jason Charles Miller is known for on his own time 😂
Prepare for ffxiv ost simp onslaughts. Just like arknights, we love our game's music like there's no tommorow..
“I’m not sure what genre I’m expecting….”
Yes
The comments should have mentioned Insanity and Insatiable too. Shadowbtingers is the original while they are remixes made for Boss fights.
If you really want a song to dissect, FF14's "Answers" is a great piece.
I've noticed that each "title track" for FFXIV tends to establish the leitmotifs for that expansion, and the rest of the music will branch off and relate back to it in different ways. It's very, very cool.
Jason Charles Miller sings this.
All I'm hearing is we need another video, with the video. lol.
"it can be something orchestral, can be something metal" actually is BOTH
The rock/metal portion of this theme is used for the first part of the final battle for the main expansion (5.0) and is called "Who Brings Shadow". The moment it kicks in during the prefight cutscene always give me the chills ^.^
"If you had the strength to take another step, could you do it? Could you save our worlds?" https://youtu.be/lfXnXTRlfTM?si=f-CSfO4h77mcsZnM&t=879
do you know la hee
Shadowbringers is the Trailer music for the expansion. It is amazing mash up of many different tracks used in Shadowbringers. Such as Emerald Winds, Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Who brings Shadows.
shadowbringers violin solo is actually a leitmotif of an older final fantasy song eternal wind from final fantasy 3 soken likes to use leitmotif in a lot of his songs.
You kind of hit the nail on the head there. It is a boss fight, you don't really want to win, but you have to and when it's over, you still feel bad for doing it.
Soken is a brilliant musician and your reaction is a testament to that.
Technically this is three songs combined into one for the trailer,
The intro is "Tomorrow and Tomorrow"
The bulk of it is "Who Brings Shadow"
The instrumental bit is "Eternal Winds" (theme from Final Fantasy III, and there's a few versions of it in FFXIV)
This happens with the trailer themes that they blend together several songs or leitmotifs in the trailers. The one for Endwalker blends all the main themes from the previous expansions into one piece.
The trailer themes may feel kind of jumbled as they are mixed with various notable songs from the expansion. It fits better watching with the trailer itself. like this one is a couple different songs combined into one.
Love seeing someone pop the cork on FFXIV reactions
Man… if you really dont know the story you got the right path on your deductions, its used trought all the expantion, boss fights, scenarios and the oppening animation. cant really write what happens because of spoilers, but consider reacting to "Answers" and or "Locus" or "Metal – Brute Justice Mode"
This song is 3-piece.
The beginning is part of another song – Tomorrow and Tomorrow. Middle – is "Who Brings Shadow" and the String part is "Eternal Wind" (an overworld theme from Final Fantasy 3)
Tomorrow and Tomorrow plays in credits and its version plays in the main city of the story – Crystarium
Who Brings Shadow – is a theme of the final boss of the expansion (more precisely – his first theme that plays in the first phase – second phase has another awesome song – Invincible – which transforms fight into real epic)
Eternal Wind plays two-fold. First – Shadowbringers takes a lot of themes from Final Fantasy 3's story (along with very first 24-man raid in FFXIV – the Crystal Tower ) and second – when camera flies around at first it shows place that was initially shown in the original trailers – city known at the time as "Rapture" (name of the tech demo shown in 2005, later supposed to be used as one of main cities in the game before cities were fully redesigned, but initial design remained in the first trailer) – it flies out of the area showing purple trees and entrance to The Crystal Tower (while we know that Crystal Tower doesn't have ANY city adjacent to it – it's located in very inhospitable area and was protected by magical wards, not mentioning that there is not a single purple tree in Eorzea), under alien light-filled skies, it shows different world.
Shadowbringers Cinematic Trailer is legit one of the most exciting trailers for both newcomers (what the hell is going on there? Can anyone explain it to me? who's this guy? Who's Master Matoya? Who's this guy? Who's this girl? Who is this crystal guy?) and veterans who are getting there (what the hell is going on there? Can anyone explain it to me? Urianger? WHAT, MATOYA? But that's… WTF!? Thancred? WHAT, MINFILIA?! Who is this crystal guy?), but it is confusing in a good, intiguing way.
Funny you mention Berserk when talking about the cover art. That's a Dark Knight, a job in FFXIV that was inspired in its design by Berserk.
