It's crazy to realize that Ness and company technically didn't defeat Giygas themselves; it took literal prayer and divine intervention to do so. That alone is terrifying to think about.
The thing is I wouldn't really call it divine intervention because the god here is the player, Gygas is an all powerful entity but our compassion for the main characters and everyone they've met is what overpowers him. Human compassion is stronger than nihilistic cruelty, I don't find that terrifying, I find it beautiful.
@@fullmetalanarchist6521 It's terrifying when you consider that Giygas wasn't cruel. He was in agony. His own mind tore him apart not only bodily but down to his very soul. Killing him was not to protect the planet. It was a mercy kill to put him out of his misery. And it only worked because it put him together just barely enough he could choose to die rather than continue being whatever the fuck that was.
What I love about giygas’s theme is that it’s not bombastic and chest-pounding like “One-Winged Angel” or uptempo and boisterous like “Megalovania”, it’s subtle eerie. Giygas isn’t trying to prove how tough and powerful he is in this battle. He has already become a near- unstoppable force, a being of pure rage and hatred. He is so powerful that he is literally only defeated by prayer- conventional methods such as direct attack are totally no-sold. This theme is not “I am all powerful” It is a being incapable of rational thought, with no motive at all outside of blind, destructive anger for all of reality, lashing out at you and coming very, very close to obliterating you with a swat of its hand
It's terrifying that he had to use an entire machine just to keep even a rudimentary amount of sapience, and after the machine is turned off he just descends into madness in a visual format.
It reminds me of Your Best Nightmare from Undertale. Toby Fox was so much inspired by the Giygas fight he designed Flowey around similar concept and executed it so well.
@@Kyumifun It's the tone that makes a huge difference between the fights, Flowey's photoshop form is terrifying but the music and fight is designed far more gratifying and intense than Giygas', Giygas has moreso a lovecraftian tone than a gratifying boss fight.
Earthbound has a unique soundtrack. From jazzy enemy battle themes, cheerful town themes to some surprisingly creepy atmospheric themes like the final boss, the caves, and the beginning night when the meteor lands.
I still remember how dark this game was, between master belch, and pokey about to sacrafice paula with the happy cult....it's amazing how we even got this game in the states.
I mean it’s dark but the art style makes it “less” dark. You have to remember that silent hill made it to the states which is one of the most disturbing pieces of media
@@efreq.6465Silent Hill is a horror game for adults also years after this game on the snes there really wasnt much in the "disturbing game" on that console
When it came out in 1995, people in the US didn't like it at ALL despite it being famous in japan, but when Ness was featured in the first smash bros game, Americans started to slowly love this game and actually witness Giygas' horror at full display.
It's shocking how much stuff actually got through, albeit with censored changes. Pokey and Picky are heard getting hit by their dad in the beginning of the game, Frank basically stabs Ness, who deals with police brutality later. He encounters a robe-wearing cult that has triangular hats, plus more.
Fun Fact: Giygas internally has 20,000 HP, but is programmed to fully heal every turn. The only reason why praying eventually kills him is that it eventually does more than 20K damage in one hit, meaning the heal can't take effect. Theoretically if you had an attack that could deal over 20,000 damage, you could defeat him before it's scripted to, although I'm not sure what kind of glitches this may cause since the game doesn't expect him to die early.
It's interesting that you can still make out a sort of rhythm to this music if you listen close enough. The music sounds chaotic, but it's planned chaos.
Giygas is literally one of the scariest, most genius, and most underrated video game villains of all time. He’s *literally the concept itself of evil incarnate,* but if you read his lore, he’s so much more than just that. He’s a symbolic representation for how if you let hatred, evil, and trauma run unchecked within you it will destroy you. Pokey’s lines right before you fight Giygas give credence to this: “He’s not even aware of what he’s doing. His own mind was destroyed by his own power. He’s an almighty idiot!”
Imagine if after Lucas pulls the last needle and everything goes dark, instead of hearing all the characters, it's utter silence, then a familiar red visage appears on the screen.
...eh, not buying it tbh. giygas got wiped out in the ancient past, so i don't think he's got a chance of showing up in the distant future from earthbound.

And then dies and dissapear.
Earthbound was a game made like something from the imagination of a child. In a way, Giygas makes since in this theme. It looks like the result of a child seeing something he wasn’t supposed to see and letting his imagination go crazy.
That's actually sort of what it is, look up about the story of Shigesato Itoi (the game's creator) accidently stumbling upon an adult movie featuring sex and murder when he was a little kid.
Jesus Christ, I had this playing in the background and I was dozing off a little, then 3:03 happens and I nearly shit myself. Totally forgot that would happen for whatever reason, it caught me completely off guard.
A creature beyond all comprehension. There are no words to fully describe it - and no words to describe it even partially. Both nothing and everything. Simultaneously.
It's a confused mess, once it was released out of it's pod meant for suppressing it's power, it went insane, it had no more intentions of evil, vengeance or ambition for power, only confused rage.
Giygas is the only example of cosmic horror that truly shook me, Giygas would be terrifying enough just from his design and music, but not knowing exactly how he ended up like this, not knowing how vast his body truly is, or what has even happened to it to make it like this, just makes it all the more terrifying.
Most unsettling video game soundtrack I’ve heard. The exotic chords bouncing around aimlessly in the beginning really detach you from reality in a sedating way. Then you’re slowly pushed into being bombarded with erratic noise. As if some alien is trying to create noises we interpret as danger and panic. But it’s really well done. The awkward cadences, pauses, pulses of nonsense frequencies interrupted by short periods of prayer that bring audible symmetry to re-orient your ears, only to be brought back into the chaos is like audible water boarding.
Your time machine broke down and you were trapped in the Carboniferous period 359 million years ago where plants and invertebrates are colossal in size, which would be hell for a modern human.
I love how this boss fight is just pure despair. It's in the music, the dialogue, the fight itself. The electronic noises and fast out-of-tune noises just makes you feel like there really is nothing you can do, or this is something that is really way out of your league and shouldn't be messing with.
