The legend of music. I can’t wait to see how the final battle will sound when we have to face Rockwell for the final time. I can only imagine how epic the music will sound.
It's not that he did anything wrong, it's that he is, by design, our challenge to prove ourselves and move to the next ark. One step closer to saving earth.
My fear of cockroaches has increased by 10%, when I accidentally pricked my finger on one of its leg spines when trying to pick it up with a folded napkin.
There really is no other experience as fighting the overseer for the first time blind. You came all this way, battle the mighty and the mythical, best the island had to throw at you, and had truly become the ultimate survivor... Only to find yourself face to face with a mechanical overlord of a massive biodome in space who has watched your every move and has waited patiently for you to arrive. Sure I died to the extreme cold the first time but it was one hell of a shell shock to learn all this with my friends.
Very similar to how I experienced it. Sure I’d read guides, got advice from my tribe friends on multiplayer. I knew I would face a boss called the Overseer and it would transform… But as a new player who has only played on the Island I didn’t really know what was coming. On Beta Single Player Mode I fought. I struggled but I won… barely. And it was amazing.
I just fought the Alpha Overseer for my first time. I passed the Tek Cave on my Carcha lv 147 and cryopodded her back in the Teleporter. Then I landed on the small platform above the final scene circle and used my ascendant shotgun with 1500 rounds. After ascension I lost my tek armor and my cryopod. Rip my Carcha, she carried me through the cave. Beloved, lost and never forgotten.
@Chamalinha and after my comment I discovered in my refrigerators fertilized Carcha eggs, they were her siblings. I hatched and imprinted them. Also, I found a wild lv 110 Carcha so I tamed him and start a Carcha farm.

Nah for me it was the other way around... did something wrong.... oh god... my Irish mother found out ... *start this music as she comes through the door...!!
I’ve never noticed but if you listen closely at 0:27 you can hear a part of Rockwell’s theme in this. Which makes sense since Rockwell is the overseer of aberration
I will stand by the opinion that this is the best final boss theme of any game (I consider the Overseer to be Ark's 'final' boss if we don't include DLC). Incredibly powerful opener with the monstrous brass and choir, and the insane beat drop at 0:26. The drums are absolutely incredible, and the 'whirling sound' at 0:38 is so good at building tension. Then of course we have the insane chorus at 1:00, the strings and percussion going absolutely nuts, with the brass and choir backing them up. The descending bits with the strings at 1:54 and 2:06 also sound great, with the sudden tone shift at 2:12 going into game's main (leitmotif?) giving the fight a sense of power and safety almost to the player. Then, my favorite part at 2:40 crushes that feeling with such a raw and desperate sound to it with the strings, building into 3:10 with the brass and choir joining in. Really builds that sense of urgency as if resources are running out. And of course, 3:30, the final 'chorus', with an absolutely haunting choir as the entire orchestra plays, almost like the player when the Overseer is at low HP. Such an incredible closing fight theme. Ranting aside, Gareth Coker is an incredible composer and did such a great job at crafting the soundtrack for this game, and props to the musicians in the orchestra that performed this as well.
It is to me as well, it's for the original final boss of the game and the buildup for the island ending is the best of all maps imo. It's simple and not thrown in your face; you have to go looking for it. Also this theme is the most fitting final boss theme I've ever heard

That alone is more than enough reason to fight him. Another good reason is that he spawns megalosaurs inside the wall of the Tek Cave that only come out when you're dismounted and then rip you to shreds.
After spending entirely too much time in this game just having fun on Valguero and some Genesis, I got it into my head to actually do the story maps in order. After tons of time taming and breeding my dinos on the Island, I went into the alpha tek cave with 22 tames. After losing 3 Rexes to the cave, I went into the alpha Overseer with 19 tames. Beating the alpha Overseer was on par with some of the most epic moments I've ever had in gaming. One of the moments you don't expect, and then can't explain why. But it felt like an enormous accomplishment like in older days playing older games. People farm Overseer or just run in and shotgun blast it down or have beaten this and the other story bosses years ago, and that's all well and good. But this was my first time fighting it, and though I found alpha dragon "harder' (lost 10 Rexes to it) this was still an unforgettable gaming experience for me. Good luck to the survivors who want to take on this boss in the future, and may all your red loot crates not be blueprints!
I did this fight a week ago. ALPHA overseer. I brought rexes. TONS of rexes. I remember the names: Cheese sauce (the OG), Mechanical cheese sauce, heavy metal, ooga booga, oops killed you, key to desctruction and Dynamic, Mr. Booster the yutyrannus, pumba and war pig the daeodons. It was a TOUGH fight. It took SO much time. The worst part was the casualties. So we brought all those creatures in there, right? 7 very good rexes, 2 daeodons and a yutyrannus. Well, most of them were pounded to dust by the overseer because of one mistake: we didnt bring enough food for the daeodons. They couldnt heal our rexes and yuty for too long, so they started going down one by one. The worst part was... the og... the best... the loved... Cheese sauce, the rex... died. Cheese sauce was THE FIRST mutated rex i EVER hatched and imprinted. We spent SO much time together, only for her to go down right in front of my eyes. You think im exaggarating because im typing like this. You are wrong. It physically hurt to see her get killed by the 20 defense units and attack drones while being stunned by the overseer... fast forward 15 minutes... all creatures have died except one... Dynamic, the rex. The overseer was on super low health... so i rushed to finish it once and for all... after a few bites... it was over. The creator of everything on the island... defeated by its own creations. I cryopodded Dynamic and watched the Ascension cutscene. But the pain deep inside me... the pain created by all of our dinos dying except one... that pain is still with me today. I went on my world, saw all my dinos at home were happy to see me again... and i built a huge tombstone made out of stone that had “RIP” painted on it... in memory of everything and everyone that has fallen... during the fight between us and the overseer. Dynamic, the last surviving rex was then renamed... living up to his new name... *”THE TRUE OVERSEER”* R.I.P all the loved dinos that have died. You will stay in my heart forever. You will be missed more than anything in a video game. Edit: i only mentioned 7 rexes because those were the ones that i liked, i brought way more tho
I just beat the overseer and thought gamma was hard after seeing the ending i was in awe. I went in expecting losses......ON GAMMA. I lost a few because on the way down so I feel your pain. 100 percent. I understand
Having just beaten the Island Overseer Beta single player last night, I agree. The music did its job. I was pumped for the entire fight. An epic struggle that I won’t forget in a hurry.
I prefer Star Trek over Star Wars. "Show no mercy! For the Klingon Empire! TODAY IS A GOOD DAY TO DIE!!! QAPLA FELLOW WARRIORS!!! All Klingon warships and battlecruisers! FIRE AT WILL!!!!!!!!"
What would make this fight that much more amazing would be if they went back and added dialog here. Just imagine an AI voice initiating defense protocols and the like.
After 6 years of off and on playing this game and usually just screwing around with making a kick ass base, catching dinos like Pokémon and cursing the creation of troodons, I finally beat this thing last night. Never expected an epic orchestral song to accompany what is essentially a floating symbol. Then again I went in that fight not knowing what to expect and just relied on my bear to watch my back.
@@Dani.335 that’s not what I meant, I meant that the boss that is being fought is not intense enough for this song. The king titan was a titan that would fold godzilla with one attack and was bigger than mountains. The boss fight was intense enough for the soundtrack while the island was not.
@@Elgatocat387 i disagree, while this isnt the most difficult fight of the game you have to think about it from the perspective of a new player who doesnt know whats happening along with the story implications. For someone who goes into this blind it feels like the finale, the steaks couldn't be higher. Everything youve done has come to this climactic point. This is the chance to escape it all
Well there is gonna be an ark animated series coming out next year probably gonna be released about the same time as ark 2 to hype it up more and in the trailer they actually used the in game dino crys so it's a possibility
nasty business. except it was handgrenades for me and the shotgun and then iffle and at last i did the last shot with a suicide sword attack with my tek suit
Man this theme is so damn atmospheric and perfectly composed, the way the dramatic "welcome to the most important fight in the game" Storm Trooper march esque opening sounds out, to the start of the action sequence at 0:25 when you'd be first learning what this bamf can do. Then the shift in pace at 1:23 and the continuing section there sort of like you're noticing the way the overseer's shield morphs down and he becomes vulnerable. But I gotta say my favorite bit of the action sequence is 2:12, when the intense DUN DUNs suddenly switch to a more focused drum beat, one with more of a relaxed anthem style, as if the theme is trying to tell you to regain your breath and have confidence. Nothing comes close to the climax at 11:15 though as the Overseer falls and the music flows through to the one of the most emotional moments I've experienced at 11:30...where you see the system come alive and you have time to notice the view. You wind down to look out at the ARKs and then you experience it; ASCENSION. ARK may not be a very well constructed game in regards to performance and balance, but the plot, the way the game makes you feel like YOU alone decide YOUR fate in the story...the atmosphere, the music all combined makes it such a good game.
and then the people who just don´t give a fuck on the story, but on the gameplay like me xD if the gameplay is shit but the story a masterpiece than why the fuck do you play the game. You don´t have fun and are stuck in loading screens and cut scenes. ARK isn´t a game like this, i personaly love the gameplay and how the devs let you experience the game, even though there are so fcking many bugs
Lmao, I pretty much gave up on supply drops once I realised that the loot was lousy. Basically if I could get it without significant risk to myself or my tames I would get it. If not, I didn’t bother. In fairness though I’m a new player who has only played on the Island. I keep myself spoiler free as much as possible so I didn’t know about the source of the drops until I beat the Overseer last night. My motivation? I was pis*ed about how many of my tames I’d lost in getting the artifacts, during the bosses and the Tek Cave itself. Those were my loyal pets and partners and I like them. Jokes on him though. I bred them-produced eggs for each before the mission. I have some preparations to make before I go to the next Ark, so those children will come with me.
@@Jorge-el-Furioso not going to lie my dude I just came here and posted what my first thought about the song was I didn’t copy anyone why would I even do that? Sorry for being “unoriginal” I guess?
@TheRealMinzblatt _ That damn dragon still haunts everyone despite being one of the first. If they threw that dragon in against say a titan, I’d have some money on that dragon.
*It is the AI that oversees the experiments of an ARK Station and ultimately decides who may continue to ascend higher in the evolutionary chain and who will be terminated. In truth, the overseer is the empty shell of a Homo Deus that was tasked with looking over and protecting their respective ARKs.The Overseer is informing you what happened with our home planet. The Overseer Wanted you to come visit it, and prove you were stronger than it. Now it has accepted you have bested it, and warmly teaches us about what the machines have done to preserve the life of planet Earth.*
@@jacobzxm1819 I think it has 10 bosses now, not as powerful as pc bosses, and can't fight em with tames, most of em are more powerful verisons of normal creatures, but theres the megapiticus(megapiticus petius) and the broodmother(the broodgenerix)
“I do know one thing’s for sure, you got this mate” *sees the overseer fire a spread of lasers and spawn in digitized dinosaurs* “Yeah I don’t think so”
“I do know one thing for sure, you got this mate.” *Sees the Overseer fire a spread of lasers and spawn in mobs, while transforming.* “Finally, a worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary! Come on team, let’s show him who is really the master of the Ark!” *Hefts the rocket launcher onto her shoulder and charges.*
You just unlocked one of my memories! The story goes like this: We're testing whether can we bring more than 50 tames so with 25 rexes in the slot, the rest of the slot is filled with dodos and phomias. So we have roughly 60 tames and we foght the alpha overseer. Our screen was fully covered of red text after the overseer transformed into kingkong and threw a boulder at the dodo 🤣
Me and a few friends fought this guy on alpha, 1 immediately died and another got focused on by so many defense, it was so hard for us, we weren’t prepared very well
Same thing happened to me with my party. Thought we were more than prepared for the alpha fight had mutated Rexes, brought many med brews and calien soups, brought fur armor, and my health still went down!? A few others in my party died too.
Well. This is reassuring. I’m doing this on alpha solo soon... yeah. I have a plan and everything, but I have a feeling that I’m opening up a new and fresh hell for myself. Plan is 2 Daeodons so I can heal everything up after being weakened by the tek cave, a bunch of rexes as main damagers, a bunch of Therizinos specifically for the Overseer’s Dragon Transformation, A shit ton of Allos if I’m ever forced to fight a giga under the circumstance that I can’t lure it into lava. Definitely losing a ton of Allos, but at least they’ll deal a percentage based bleed attack with their gnash, as a shoot at the giga from behind with a tek saddled rex. Still debating if I should bring a Yutyrannus though. Reasons for not bringing one is because if I were to, I’d have to use that to crowd control all of the defense units. Yutyrannus just die super fast if they’re not being piloted. The Yutyrannus’ attack speed is just too slow! I need something more versatile with more DPS. At least the tek saddle rex has an AOE splash damage ranged attack, and a faster attack speed. I just don’t know dude. Frankly, the Overseer fight is all about crowd controlling against the Defense units before they overwhelm you. Any advice? Lol
Arks trials are actually manageable compared to real life...!!!! 😂 you thought Ascension off the island would stop us?? Easy... bring it!! Rockwell?? No problem... kick his butt!! Manticore?? dragons?? No stopping us survivors... we kick ass... Covid 19?? Oh shit... no one knows how to handle anything... do facemasks work?? Do they not? Can we go to the pub? Yes. Can we go to the library? No. Does anyone know what's going on?! *queue this song! Just survive!!
Awe some yeah but its more terrifying if a group of rexes come as well as the 400+ giga at the end (i play w/ really high difficulty and high dino damage)
lol yea theres also a giga in mid of the cave path but last giga stand on a thin bridge... and unlike rex giga doesnt give fore time to run while he roars that giga eat ya head as soon as he can...

To be honest,
I never watched Star Wars..
What would make this fight that much more amazing would be if they went back and added dialog here. Just imagine an AI voice initiating defense protocols and the like.
If you listen closely it whispers 'The chosen, homo deus'

This aged so well
There’s as many bosses in ARK as there are months in a year. Visible fear
After 6 years of off and on playing this game and usually just screwing around with making a kick ass base, catching dinos like Pokémon and cursing the creation of troodons, I finally beat this thing last night. Never expected an epic orchestral song to accompany what is essentially a floating symbol. Then again I went in that fight not knowing what to expect and just relied on my bear to watch my back.

I’m happy that the amount of people still listen and comment
In my opinion, this is easily the best soundtrack of the entire game and the dlcs
The soundtrack did not match the boss battle, only the king titan lived up to its ost
@@Elgatocat387 well yeah. maybe the Génesis I Boss battle (the máster controller Boss) suits better for this one. Still It is a great soundtrack.
@@Dani.335 that’s not what I meant, I meant that the boss that is being fought is not intense enough for this song. The king titan was a titan that would fold godzilla with one attack and was bigger than mountains. The boss fight was intense enough for the soundtrack while the island was not.
@@Elgatocat387 i disagree, while this isnt the most difficult fight of the game you have to think about it from the perspective of a new player who doesnt know whats happening along with the story implications. For someone who goes into this blind it feels like the finale, the steaks couldn't be higher. Everything youve done has come to this climactic point. This is the chance to escape it all

Remember when we believed this was the end of ARK?
Yep
yeah but the other dlcs were good in form of story
ironic that it was literally just the beginning
@@Sassy_Witch I hope so Extinction was only the beginning. I have a lot of time in my live and if ark ends in a few year my rest live is sad
Man this theme is so damn atmospheric and perfectly composed, the way the dramatic "welcome to the most important fight in the game" Storm Trooper march esque opening sounds out, to the start of the action sequence at 0:25 when you'd be first learning what this bamf can do. Then the shift in pace at 1:23 and the continuing section there sort of like you're noticing the way the overseer's shield morphs down and he becomes vulnerable. But I gotta say my favorite bit of the action sequence is 2:12, when the intense DUN DUNs suddenly switch to a more focused drum beat, one with more of a relaxed anthem style, as if the theme is trying to tell you to regain your breath and have confidence.
Nothing comes close to the climax at 11:15 though as the Overseer falls and the music flows through to the one of the most emotional moments I've experienced at 11:30...where you see the system come alive and you have time to notice the view. You wind down to look out at the ARKs and then you experience it; ASCENSION.
ARK may not be a very well constructed game in regards to performance and balance, but the plot, the way the game makes you feel like YOU alone decide YOUR fate in the story...the atmosphere, the music all combined makes it such a good game.
and then the people who just don´t give a fuck on the story, but on the gameplay like me xD
if the gameplay is shit but the story a masterpiece than why the fuck do you play the game. You don´t have fun and are stuck in loading screens and cut scenes. ARK isn´t a game like this, i personaly love the gameplay and how the devs let you experience the game, even though there are so fcking many bugs

PLOT
Lmao, I pretty much gave up on supply drops once I realised that the loot was lousy. Basically if I could get it without significant risk to myself or my tames I would get it. If not, I didn’t bother.
In fairness though I’m a new player who has only played on the Island. I keep myself spoiler free as much as possible so I didn’t know about the source of the drops until I beat the Overseer last night.
My motivation?
I was pis*ed about how many of my tames I’d lost in getting the artifacts, during the bosses and the Tek Cave itself. Those were my loyal pets and partners and I like them.
Jokes on him though. I bred them-produced eggs for each before the mission. I have some preparations to make before I go to the next Ark, so those children will come with me.
LMAOO exactly bro
A fitting song for how much, time and effort preparing, is on the line. So epic.

The Overseer Wanted you to come visit it, and prove you were stronger than it. Now it has accepted you have bested it, and warmly teaches us about what the machines have done to preserve the life of planet Earth.*
Preserve? I think you have the wrong word. I think you mean "very weakly sustain" the life of Earth

Little does he know only 50 tames can come to the fight
You just unlocked one of my memories!
The story goes like this:
We're testing whether can we bring more than 50 tames so with 25 rexes in the slot, the rest of the slot is filled with dodos and phomias. So we have roughly 60 tames and we foght the alpha overseer. Our screen was fully covered of red text after the overseer transformed into kingkong and threw a boulder at the dodo 🤣
@@amying921 I remember when I literally died to it and I was about to kill it
Me and a few friends fought this guy on alpha, 1 immediately died and another got focused on by so many defense, it was so hard for us, we weren’t prepared very well
Same thing happened to me with my party. Thought we were more than prepared for the alpha fight had mutated Rexes, brought many med brews and calien soups, brought fur armor, and my health still went down!? A few others in my party died too.
You need beast carnivores that’s the strategy
Well. This is reassuring. I’m doing this on alpha solo soon... yeah. I have a plan and everything, but I have a feeling that I’m opening up a new and fresh hell for myself.
Plan is 2 Daeodons so I can heal everything up after being weakened by the tek cave, a bunch of rexes as main damagers, a bunch of Therizinos specifically for the Overseer’s Dragon Transformation, A shit ton of Allos if I’m ever forced to fight a giga under the circumstance that I can’t lure it into lava. Definitely losing a ton of Allos, but at least they’ll deal a percentage based bleed attack with their gnash, as a shoot at the giga from behind with a tek saddled rex. Still debating if I should bring a Yutyrannus though. Reasons for not bringing one is because if I were to, I’d have to use that to crowd control all of the defense units. Yutyrannus just die super fast if they’re not being piloted. The Yutyrannus’ attack speed is just too slow! I need something more versatile with more DPS. At least the tek saddle rex has an AOE splash damage ranged attack, and a faster attack speed. I just don’t know dude. Frankly, the Overseer fight is all about crowd controlling against the Defense units before they overwhelm you. Any advice? Lol
Let me guess, regular old Tek?

Awe some yeah but its more terrifying if a group of rexes come as well as the 400+ giga at the end (i play w/ really high difficulty and high dino damage)
lol yea theres also a giga in mid of the cave path but last giga stand on a thin bridge... and unlike rex giga doesnt give fore time to run while he roars that giga eat ya head as soon as he can...
