#FFXIV #FinalFantasy14 #Reaction

In fact, this soundtrack is combination of leitmotifs. So if you understand the lore, it'll blow your mind more.
This song is basically a jam session both musically and in terms of in-game lore. It combines the leitmotifs of 3 previous 'stages' in which the lore we discovered in them was used to get us to this point in the game. So it's thematically showing us 'how far we've come' both in the art direction of the 'stage' and in the stages BGM.
Why not explain musical terms for us plebs?
The arpeggio you noticed is what mostly gets called the "Crystal Prelude." It's been a part of the Final Fantasy franchise since like 1987, and it turns up a lot in XIV music as a leitmotif.
Would you guys want me to explain the musical terms I use in the future? I figured for some reason you guys would know what I'm talking about, lmk!
Have you done bury the light from devil may cry 5?
Definitely one of my favorite video game tracks.
Yes! Infected Mushroom are fantastic.
One thing to keep in mind is this song was performed by Square Enix's in-house band, The Primals. The lead singer of which is also the main English translator Koji Fox whenever they have big announcements/events. They're very passionate about this game and it's always awesome to watch them perform.
Please reaction FFXIV "To The Edge" Soken produce this song in hospital while fighting with cancer <3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFGw1RI0Kts&t=19s&ab_channel=hungrychad
So I'm going to have to pay for this one, once I get paid. However there's two I think you would enjoy
Sephirot Theme (Feind) <- this song actually got a bit of press because back in the day Powerman 5000 tried to sue for royalties
Who Brings the Shadow/Invincible.
Oh boy, do I have recommenDATIONS. Ravana Phase 2: "Unbending Steel", "Metal-Brute Justice Mode" (the live version is better imo), and most importantly "To the Edge", arguably the most important song in the game at this point and one that Soken wrote while undergoing chemotherapy. As a bonus, listening to a bit of the Rak'tika Greatwood theme "Civilizations" and following it up with Soken's live performance titled "La Hee" would be great 😀 Thanks for these reactions, it's feeding my newfound addiction to watching musicians listen to video game tracks!
Even if there are a lot of covers do it anyway, if it is what you want to do we want to hear it!
So the Song is called "A Long Fall" and where it's being played is a dungeon called The Twinning.
Oh man based on what you said I would highly reccomend you to check out The Black wolf stalks again. You'll love it.
I love music in FFXIV. This expansion has a lot of electronic sounds and the level of twinning is based on an old level that had the same tune (also a tune which can be heard in older FF games). So this is kind of a remix of that with electronic guitars.
Another electric guitar based banger would be Emerald Weapon theme
review a music? let's see… how about Astral Blader and Nefertiti from Atelier Meruru. I'm sure its a headbanger
Yes please do a cover of the Twinning! That would be so cool!
