Man, these Eikon fight themes are something else. Have you seen the video I did on Ifrit vs Phoenix? It's over here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ntGea6mn1rLRmIk.html&pp=gAQBiAQB

More Final Fantasy 16 😲👍

I knew you were going to have fun with this one. This song is attached to arguably the most visually impressive boss fight in all of gaming. No doubt this song plays a part in that impressiveness.

A game composer being blown away by the newest Final Fantasy masterpiece track? Dion only deserves the best. ❤

The Bahamut fight in game was absolutely insane, and went forever. So epic, for sure.

10:38 The point where those violins start smoking. This song is a masterpiece.

Well what would anyone expect? It's BAHAMUT! Of course he's gonna get the absolute best song. Plus Dion deserves the world.

Best theme of the entire game! It's the evolution of classical music

"They definitely can't top the Titan fight" "Wait no, stop, I can't--"

You absolutely have to listen to "The Riddle" (Odin Theme), it blew me absolutely away! Or better yet, the whole soundtrack!

4:02, made more impressive when you consider the limitations of the sound chips they utilized for home consoles in the 80s/90s where they had to learn various workarounds and started their journey with the bare basics. They learned to make good music through limitations and handicaps, even learning various trickery and various methods to create the sounds they wanted, and finally working around the fact the cartridge itself only has so many bits to allocate to the music.

OMG watching your face when the full string section hits - SAME BROTHER!

One of the best moments in gaming happened at the Tension and Release section in the beginning of this song. Its a pretty big spoiler. So when you get to it in the game just enjoy.

7:22 "It's a fusion", hmmm yes, yes it is 😉

Love watching you! You get so excited!

Undoubtedly this song plays in the most epic moment in gaming imo, this song is so masterfully crafted, the battle is so tense and bombastic, a really excepcional moment A shame that you didn't got to experience it in the game itself, but hearing you instantly love the song makes me really happy

I always love the happy mood you have in your videos. (The new bonk emoji looks really good)

Wish I had had someone like you to teach music and choir to me when I was young. With you doing this, you would make a great music teacher.

great breakdown of this glorious track. imagine my surprise and delight listening to this for the first time while playing it with headphones last month. absolutely incredible.

"The mood changed" *boom* God I love this song so much, it's gotta be my favorite, next to Away (Phoenix theme)

I was so desperate to see your reaction to this song, I am so happy you made this.

What's cool about this theme is that it's a culmination of the Sanbreque violin theme the at would play for Dion throughout the game until the epic fight between Bahamut and Ifrit like a crescendo that culminated in this epic soundtrack.

Great video as always! I love how this piece maintains a cinematic feel, but as soon as the Baroque-style part comes in, it instantly gives off a strong video game music vibe. I feel like even if this were created in 8-bit format, it would still sound dramatic and epic. Thank You, Davi.

I love your analysis, always so accurate and enthusiastic! I really think you should hear more from FFXIV OST, because it's such an enormous OST that shows how Soken can really work with any genre and is also the master of leitmotiv. We have idk how many songs that use the "Order Yet Undeciphered" motiv and all are great, -actually, please, Soken, give us more-. He even uses this motiv in particular in the first FFXVI DLC and it works there too. I would suggest "eScape" from this motiv in particular, but XIV has sooo many great songs that I could be suggesting a Bible, so better stop at this for now.

UGH you know it's good because even when you stop to break it down hearing the song still gives me goosebumps. But seriously love your passions and your explanation! I love it when music professionals are as big of fanboys (and girls) about this stuff as I am.

This theme is my favorite of the game! I still listen to it a ton.

I am so happy you covered this one

I know it's hard to believe but this is not EVEN the final boss of the game haha. But definitely one of the climaxes.

Bahamut's fight alone is worth $70 already.

This battle against bahamut is so special to me, what a roller coaster of action There is 4 theme playing on battlefield you can hear ifrit theme, phoenix theme, bahamut theme, and final fight bahamut vs ifrit arisen theme Not mention the reunion between siblings

They kept going higher in altitude during the boss fight too lol. Everything about this song is about a battle in the skies that keeps going higher. Even the name of the song is accession. You should react to the songs while watching the actual cinematics from the game. I think you'll be even more impressed with the music

Omg yes!! Can’t wait to watch this.

During this boss fight I’m not sure if I’m gonna cry because of how amazing the boss fight is or I’m gonna cry because of how epic the music is.

I love the soundtrack of this game, each motif for each eikon fits the narrative perfectly.

By far my favorite track in the game. Absolutely wonderful

Awesome breakdown, man! I always have a soft spot for big cinematic choirs, it really gets the goosebumps going! Might I suggest Slave Knight Gael's theme from Dark Souls 3, because it is my favorite Soulsborne track besides Lady Maria and Ludwig!

This by far is my favorite theme in the game. I was blown away from how beautiful and powerful it felt the whole fight.

I love your videos!

Fantastic theme, and knowing the full game story hearing it just makes me cry haha

Ooooh I was waiting for your insight on this one! To this point, mine was "omagadomagadomagad"

Love the video man! You gotta do the Titan Lost theme next. That is a fire track in FF16!

Would love to see you do a react video for every Eikon battle in the game - they are all so good!

I am the 100th like! Also great video, this is my favorite theme of the game and a very fitting one for a summon like Bahamut.

After playing the game up to this point the music hits so well

This piece on the OST and the one that precedes it "Beyond The Heavens" are both part of Bahamut's signature theme for the game. "Beyond The Heavens" is more routed in the classical style with the heavy Hollywood percussion. Bahamut's motif that they sprinkled throughout those two pieces is my favorite for the game. Maybe only "Not Alone" which is a variation on Jill's Theme for a certain key scene that pulls the heart strings heavy with a piano and light string accompaniment.

This song always gives me goosebumps, and it sounds to me like a church hymn... I dont know how to describe it, also it brings me images of lous the XVth and the whole royal cort...

It's almost like SE has multi-millions invested in the development of the game and has some of the greatest composers in gaming history on their team (Uematsu and Soken).

Another week waiting for Find the Flame, surely our patience will outlast

6:08 is definitely my favorite part of this amazing song; always gives me goosebumps!

This music is just.... omg.

Thank you.

soken is out of his mind, Bahamut's regalness is 100% in Ascension.

The fusion part of fight was amazing. The space battle reminds me of my story's, VX Super Force but mine has MUCH more stuff. :)

IMO best fight in the game, and that is saying something because there are a lot of good ones! The music and just (trying to be spoiler free) everything that is taking place and… it’s just amazing. You gotta play it Davi!

If you make another Touhou Video, how about "Tonight Stars an Easygoing Egoist (live ver.)~ Egoistic Flowers", so you meet the 2nd side of Touhou games? 😉😉 Nice vid as always btw😄 You always explain it all soo good! 😊

If I had to pick a favorite song from this game, it would be this one. But, honestly, all the music in this game is so good, the rest of the soundtrack is close behind.

Listening to this after completing Crystalline Dominion Ultimaniac mode is ten times better!! I now appreciate the music more than my first playthrough.

i never realized til you pointed out the simple progression behind the chords but at 12:03 you pointed out... that's like one of the simple final fantasy early battle themes amped up. and i saw a lot in their songs but never this til you simplified it.

7:22 Fusion, you say?

Спасибо за видео, мне нравятся ваши ролики и музыка Final Fantasy

I love these reviews, if you see this would you consider doing Odins theme “The Riddle” it’s absolutely crazy

The heavy percussion and rhythmic feel in certain parts feels like a nod towards Bahamut/Dion's place as a military commander being a big part of his character.

Bahamut is my fave summon. This is my fave ost

I really hope you do more ff16. One of my favorite game osts.

My favorite in the game you also should cover Find the Flame.

The Violin lead is just the pinaccle of modern music.

In before Davi melts. 1:15, nevermind.

The switch up at 10:37 had us all like wait WHAT 👀

Nice episode.

Masayoshi Soken is now my favourite composer

It’s funny when you say fusion during this part of the theme; because of how and when this theme actually starts playing lol.

At 10:37 and 12:42 Did you notice the little sneaky papyrus theme song from Udertale put as a melody in those part? You can listen to them side by side here : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y66VYJSjqdmwfZc.html (26:51 to 27:18)

Hey davi. I'd love to recommend a song from risk of rain 2. You've already listened to one in one of your live streams, con lentitud poderosa. I think you would enjoy either antarctic oscillation, or the main menu music titled "Risk of Rain 2". Regardless, love your content and keep up the great work

Please do Find the flame!

I think you would love musics from Octopath Traveler , it's another Rpg. my personal favorite music is Primerose theme from octopath traveler 1 and would love to see you listening to this!

I would love for you to listen to some field themes like Forevermore & Historie. Also, you NEED to cover FF14 music to hear how incredibly versatile Soken is.

Damn this bahamut theme is God like music.🤯

Don't mind me, just going around finding every video I can with knowledgable people breaking this track down 😂

Yes, 5:50 brings a smile.

Rumor has it that the recording studio had to have the fire department on the scene whenever FF16’s soundtrack was being made.

Please do Coalescence from Risk of Rain!

whoa 🤣👏

Hope you make a video about the final theme of FF16 (All As One), it is easily one of the best songs of the entire game, if not THE BEST!!!

Hey have you heard a Tiny Bunny ost? I think it has beautiful music and also quite interesting to analyse

There's a song from Deep Rock Galactic that I wonder what you'd say about. It's called "RUN!"

10:40 one of the best parts of music of the history

“So this is a fusion!” Me: Yeap. :)

Actually although the track ends there, the way it's used is after the track is finished, they repeat the beginning part of the track and ends it on the word "Ascension"

"The other sound more classic" You should check the Titan boss Theme, that is totally different than the others. Great vid btw

Will you take a listen to the Rising Tides DLC music? The whole DLC has great music with a running motif, but Leviathan got an awesome song… again.

I like listening to your review, tho i do not understand most of the musicsl terms

Do Odin fight! Song Name: The Riddle, that one will also blow you away

Can you uncover Fear & Hunger OST?

'Far Cry from Heaven' is a great track

Hey! You have sort of a brazillian accent, are you from brazil?? If not, where you from?? (im probably wrong lol)

Do Phoenix theme

Day one of asking for beast clergyman or radahn from elden ring

interesting how the music styles FUSE

To me, the Bahamut fight was more epic than Ultima.

Ostinato you can sort of translate it to Stubborn good definition
