Don't forget to join me on my NEW Twitch profile for live reactions and old man gamming assitance👴www.twitch.tv/keyofgeebz
I can't seem to find you on twitch
@@jonnenne www.twitch.tv/keyofgeebz Here you go. 😎
Finally bloodborne 😃
Sadly the first part „Ludwig the accursed“ is missing it’s the first part of the bos and with this part the second part feels even more powerful.
My friend awesome video as always,check out hunt showdown ost if you want.I would love your reaction to it.Happy new year
@@nebs1098765421 and ludwig's screams are also essential for the atmosphere
A reactor who actually provides something to his reactions. don't apologize for "over" explaining. That just makes the content better.
Yeah, that's what makes me watch him instead if just listening to the music, it's for the reactor
In general, composers on YT are good to listen to. They know their job. Who can analyze a song better than them?
Exactly this. It's why Corridor Crew's reaction videos are extremely popular. Because they actually explain the things they react to
I think quite a few reactors lately do this and there's absolutely nothing wrong with it! At least the quality ones I've seen, anyways.
check out atlas benighted or marco meatball then.
"Maybe I'll start with some Bloodborne"
So you have chosen death.
Hahhaha, right? From what I hear it might not be the best gateway experience to learning to play video games :)
@@rpgeebzmusicarcade but its (IN MY OPINION WARNING WARNING OPINION) the greatest game of all time c:
@@yunobeatOpinion? You mean fact?
jk, as much as I absolutely LOVE this game, DS3 seems like Fromsoft's magnum opus, second is Elden Ring.
@@apolloisnotashirt they have tried different approaches to their formula... some appeal to some more then the others... i just love eldritch stuff.. .and im a heccin goth girl sooo.. victorian fashion souls?... YES
@@yunobeat Yessirr! Its just so tragic that Bloodborne is stuck at no anti-aliasing which hurt my eyes, and 30 fps which made me dizzy. 😭 my first experience was not great but if you could get used to the graphics the game is the most fun thing you've ever played.
Dark Souls and Bloodborne (same people) have some phenomenal orchestration. Such MASSIVE sound.
Don’t forget Elden Ring
They're a truly bizarre concoction of genius ideas and formulaic basic shit. Also, the first dark souls has peculiar orchestration (harpsichord and throat singing for Nito) and a completely out of tune orchestra (mainly the choir)
A shame bloodborne is an exclusive
"Dark Souls III The Fire Fades Edition - 03 Prologue"
The problem with the souls games is that while it is big, dark and epic. It's only big, dark, and epic that's it. There's nothing that is more simple and quiet to balance it out, so the soundtrack as a whole is kinda one note and bland
THAT FUNNY HORSE JUST PICKED UP A SWORD!
Bloodbourne and other games by From Software are considered hard games. Just be aware failing is part of the experience, if you were to try these.
As fun as it is to see someones "holy crap this is hard" reaction, I don't think a fromsoft game is where you want to start. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think it would be better if you enjoyed your first twitch game instead of getting frustrated early on. Your first fromsoft game will always be the hardest one, and the learning curve takes a while to adjust to, especially for someone that hasn't played games in general for a while.
Maybe start with DOOM or a more chill RPG game.
@@Bmetalful agreed. There's really cool games that don't rely on being hard. Disco Elysium is really cool for example. And a very different experience. Almost a bit of audiobook experience. I'm sure lots of people can recommend enjoyable games here.
Came to say this.
@@Bmetalful Yeah I have to agree. Especially for people who are middle aged and haven't gamed in a long time, there is a massive learning curve. Fromsoft is better for experienced people.
@@Bmetalful I agree 100% I played all the from soft games to death but absolutely can not recommend it to someone new to gaming. It requires precise movement of both the character and to be able to use the camera. I recommend like what you said doom on game journalist mode is a good way get used to game controls.
Ahhh, we finally made it to Bloodborne! Technically this is the second half of a boss theme, with the first half being Ludwig the Accursed; they're meant to be a duo as thematically the boss evolves in the second stage. I mentioned it on another video, but would highly recommend Cleric Beast and Hail the Nightmare, though every track is fantastic. There's also an extremely impressive live performance of an arrangement of songs done by the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra!
Adding to this, Hail The Nightmare is one of the simplest songs on Bloodborne's full OST and yet might be its most haunting. If I'm not mistaken it's the only song that plays outside of any boss fight. On top of that it has a dynamic characteristic in which the music is actually part of the game's environment. In game you will notice most prominently when stepping outside from a certain cathedral that the song's chanting becomes a bit louder.
Yeah someone fucked up here, you can't just play the second half.
@@Burningsok5happens when you get snatched by a kidnapper and sent to a jail in the unseen village . As the music plays, The player starts to realize there’s something much darker going on in the world than previously thought
@@Burningsok5 yeah hail the nightmare is really creepy. I played bloodborne a bit even though i sadly spoiled myself most of it and when i got to the Hypogean Gaol that music almost made me shit myself
Hail the nightmare is a fantastic piece of music. It has an alternate, alpha(?) version that wasn't used that is much creepier inho, too.
in the first phase ludwig acts like a mindless beast using only his jaws and other parts of his body to attack you while howling and screaming at you. when he gets to half health, a cutscene plays where he falls over and the sword on his back falls in front of him. he grabs the blade and stands up straight, and attacks like a knight in the second phase, as if he's regained his humanity. this theme reflects the change.
in the cutscene he even puts the sword up against his face, covering the beast like half of his face, only showing the human side
I always saw it as the beast part was actually his horse that you were fighting. It's not until Ludwig sees his sword that he kind of reawakens.
First and second phase should have been 2 separate health bars imo.
@@shadowmeister4456 Maybe even 3 phases
In the second phase, from my perspective, it seems to Ludwig salutes you. Standing upright with Moonlight in front of him, legs close together. Hunter's greeting to another Hunter, and possibly giving himself a proper send off
Nothing beats the tension when you have no blood vials and you are both on low health and this song is blaring in the background
this is where you suddenly start dodging all the shit 😂
@@thevendetta9726couldn’t be me😂 I always panic dodge and mistime it
this track follows directly on from 'ludwig the accursed', reflecting the enemy's changing mental over the course of the battle with the player character. it's worth listening to both tracks back to back when you have a chance to get the full effect.
Yep this is the second part of the boos fight and it is worth reacting to the change in tone of the track from the "Ludwig the Accursed" to this one "Ludwig, the Holy Blade".
Also, for music nerds... Ludwig...like Beethoven...and the sword that he uses when he turn into "Ludwig, the Holy Blade" as opposed to how he fight when he is "The Accursed", is called Moonlight...like the famous Sonata from Beethoven.
@@micheleduritto Speed Over Beethoven confirmed.
@@micheleduritto only issue is moonlight sword was in a older game dark souls from the moonlight butterfly a well flying butterfly that uses moon attacks, though they might have named him ludwig just to make that connection haha
@@Fairenough642 the Moonlight Sword is in every From Software game...ever....like the Moonlight is present even in Armored Core (a game about mech) and Tenchu...and its origin stem from King's Field, the very first From Software game...and so , in every game they try to have a fun new way to introduce the Moonlight Sword...and in Bloodborne they used Ludwig......
If you don't believe me about the Beethoven thing, even the music was purposefully resembling somewhat the famous Beethoven Sonata, 3/4 tempo, and a sort of old fashioned valzery kinda feel to it, in stark contrast with the first phase.
You mentioned something about the fade out at the end. Something I recommend you to consider is that game music is different than normal music. The composers have to make it in a way that it can loop because the actions of the player make the music change, so they are basically loops that can consistently change. After they finish that some mixers make the OST version so that it can be like a normal song. Some put more effort into it than others.
Or, to put it simply, you can't predict how long a boss battle will take every individual player so it really is the only option to make a smoothly looped soundtrack that quietly transitions into its next part when the players reach a new phase.
I didn't play the game but for me this one is such an incredible piece of music. It feels like a dance, that you really don't want to be a part of, but on the other hand you are somehow pulled toward it.
"A dance that you really don't want to be part of" God damn dude thanks I'm stealing and putting this in a novel now
That actually fits in where the music is used
(Spoilers for Bloodborne)
This boss, Ludwig, found a secret sword made of Moonlight, the sword was somehow sentient and could communicate to its wielder, guiding him. Ludwig became a legendary warrior while using this sword, but it also consumed his mind, turning him into a giant grotesque beast over time.
This music pops in when we as the player is fighting Ludwig (now a beast), the sword shows it’s light to him again, and he regains some of his humanity, he goes from moaning and charging all over the place to elegantly fight with his sword again, which feels like a dance between him and the sword, tho he knows the sword corrupts his mind, he still feels attracted to it.
A dance would be accurate for most of Bloodborne's hunter bosses. Both moving in and out of range to swing their weapons and get the upper hand.
@@Antichupius slight edit to this (that I may be entirely wrong about) but Ludwig’s descent into beasthood would have been from consuming the old blood, not from the sword itself. We know that as beats got stronger the hunters has to consume more of the old blood to be able to fight on equal footing. This of course pushed them closer to beasthood, and with Ludwig being one of the most devout members of the healing church as well as the first Hunter of the church, his transformation was one of the most grotesque. Can’t remember the item description that hints at that, but it’s somewhere in the early game lol
@@dustinwheeler4265yep this is it! You got it right
This piece is actually the second part of one boss fight, with ‘Ludwig the Accursed’ being the first half and running straight into this one.
I don’t think there’s a single bad track on Bloodborne’s OST, definitely worth looking further into. It’s always great to hear your insight.
Yeah, makes more sense to listen to the full score, otherwise this part alone kinda feels like there's no build-up and such.
@@AuronTyranitar For sure, loses it's meaning with how the music progresses with Ludwig himself turning from a beast to a concious being.
@@bartoszbartosiewicz1123 I wouldn't go so far as it "loses its meaning" but it definitely has less of an impact with how bestial the first half is, and how both are scary in their own way
@@ArtofCrimms If you look from the perspective of the music piece telling a story it imo makes less sense by itself, like it's a really nice piece but what really makes it pop is the change from the first part.
@@bartoszbartosiewicz1123 I agree it tells alot of narrative over the transformation. But also each structure of this song has a very incredible meaning behind it.
It's truly fascinating the way he describes precisely the tone of Bloodborne just by listening to this soundtrack that perfectly captures the essence of the game as a whole.
That’s caused me to have even more appreciation for fromsoftware that everything is handled with such care
6:20 He was so close to literally saying "giant, dark monster" or something and stopped himself XD
It's very cool to see how learned musicians immediately recognise the "trope" patterns. Some musical devices just translate so clearly into words and emotions; maybe it's just that we've learned to associate certain music with certain things or maybe music is just that powerful, either way it's freakin' sweet.
That just shows how amazing the majority of fromsoft themes really are.
The boss who belongs to this music is sort of a paladin styled warrior who founded a church but has since become completely malformed and bestial. In the second phase of this fight he seems to remember a bit of his humanity and fights you with his sword like a man rather than a beast. I feel like the music really captures his creepiness, tragedy, and fallen greatness.
Well said.
I think the song is actually glorifying and uplifting, Ludwig achieved the impossible and overcame the beast within.
Pretty sure Ludwig didn't found the healing church or any church for that matter he was just first of the healing church hunters.
@@theultimatetactician1712 it was Laurence who founded the church, Ludwig is just the very first church hunter
@@syamimfikri8083 yh I know, I was correcting op.
rule #1 of existence: people that wear his type of hat, and especially if they have a grey beard, are always awesome. No exceptions.
I wish he did both tracks. The transition to this track blew my mind and still gives chills.
Bloodborne is definitely one of the best games of FromSoftware and man, Ludwig is totally one of the most awesome bosses of all games, the lore, the concepts, the visuals, the music... give me goosebumps just to remember
2:464
*sips tea with great stress*
If you ever do a slow burn of Dark Souls Music, you should include Gwen Lord Of Cinder from DS 1 and Soul Of Cinder from DS 3 as they have musical call backs to eachother. Plus, Lord Of Cinder is such a melancholic piano track. Just piano, and it's beautiful.
Soul of Cinder was a gutpunch of emotion. When those simple notes started playing... yeesh, that was good.
I think one thing that's difficult with reacting to video game soundtracks is that it's intended to be part of a larger experience. For example this song is for the second phase of the fight. Halfway through Ludwig transforms and the song transforms with him. The story, the art design, the music, the sound effects, the gameplay, they're all woven together. But you have to draw the line somewhere!
If I had to guess, the reason they use that waltz-like timing in the track is because it's set to the tune of the player fighting a monstrosity. The player is performing a death waltz with Ludwig, the aforementioned monstrosity and namesake of the track. Thank you for your take on this piece. I hope to see your reaction on other pieces like Nameless Song from Dark Souls 1 or Moon's Tear from Theophany's Majora's Mask remix album. See you next time.
One could also say that Ludwig is dancing on the edge of his bestial madness.
I would love it if you did another reaction with both ‘Ludwig the Accursed' and 'Ludwig, the Holy Blade' soundtracks together; its a most developed piece that way imo
As you said around 11:18this music plays not at the start of a boss battle but only once you have made it to phase 2 / 50% of the bosses health bar accompanying new move set and more epic on screen visuals from phase 1. The music on some of these boss encounters drew me to these games, and almost make me hesitate ending the encounters with how epic they are. New sub here. Lovely channel. Keep it up and I wish u an epic first play through of a fromsoftware title. You definitely won’t forget the journey :)
Fromsoft puts out tons of amazing music in all their games but there's just something about Bloodborne, god I love it. Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower is just so amazing, and the clever transition in the phases of the fight make it hit extra hard.
Lady Maria! 😍😍😍
Start playing video games with Bloodborne? Good lord. A brave man.
When Ludwig comes to his senses and this piece of art starts playing. God this gives me goosebumps.
I would recommend the Father Gascoigne theme from bloodborne, for your interest. Feels like you're running down a dark alley, feeling like anytime you're gonna run into a dead end, or "they" are about to catch up to you.
Hearing this preformed live is like one of my bucket list desires. Sadly I'm not sure if anyone is actually performing.
But I know that this choir live would blow my mind
"You guys are gonna teach me how to play video games!"
"I think I'll start with Bloodborne." 😬
It's funny. The music kicked on, and dude looked like he was on the verge of panic.
I believe the battle against Ludwig is one of From Software's greatest achievements and thematically one of the greatest moments of all time in videogames. Once the church's strongest knight, Ludwig succumbed to madness and was reduced to a horse-like abomination, left to suffer in his own insanity within a festering mire of death. In the first part of the fight you encounter the monster, and the fight is accompanied by a chaotic cacophony of music as Ludwig screams and charges around on all fours like a wild beast. After defeating him in this form, a spark reignites within Ludwig as he rediscovers who he once was and what he fought for, symbolized by the sudden appearance of his "true mentor and guiding moonlight", the Moonlight Sword (which is an important recurring item throughout the majority of From Software's games and arguably the symbol of the company itself!) Ludwig stands upright, sword in hand. You now face off against the greatest knight who ever lived, reborn, in a true final duel and waltz of death scored by the track you just heard.
Bloodborne is probably my favorite soundtrack in not only gaming but in entertainment media. I would love to see your reaction to “The First Hunter” song next!
Ludwig going from a mindless beast to this proud righteous knight who dances this waltz with you in the game is done so beautifully and the music is a huge factor. Great video
Even cooler is the fact Ludwig attacks in the same beat as the hook so you do have that "dance" with him as you mentioned during the boss fight
That is one of my favorite parts of his fight. It isnt just a fight, its a dance with death.
The waltz comparison is very on point because a key feature of the games from this development studio is rhythm in combat. Many boss encounters behave more like a dance than a life or death fight against overwhelming odds, and the music often keys you into how a boss will behave if you've got the ear to catch it. As others have pointed out, this is the second track for the same boss, Ludwig, who reclaims a small bit of clarity and his former might after you beat his first phase and he reunites with his holy weapon. It's the final throes of consciousness and desperation from a broken creature.
I really recommend watching someone do the boss fight with the music. The environment and characters really bring the OST to life. Also the Abyss Watchers and Lord of Cinder from Dark Souls 3 are my suggestions for next time. Awesome work man!
Oh by the way this is the second phase of the boss not his entire them this plays directly after the first one
you NEED to check out the Risk Of Rain 2 OST, easily my favorite one, the composer manages such an amazing blend of classical concepts with modern VGM sounds. Best ones are "The Rain Formerly Known As Purple" "Once In a Lullaby" and "Antarctic Oscillation" in my opinion.
This song is such genius that the beat perfectly aligns with Ludwigs atacks.
Dude, I love that you're reacting to even one track from Bloodborne, this track in particular being so incredibly thick with emotion, truly one of the best in the game. Bloodborne OST will always be special to me because of how goddamn hard it hits, especially when you're at your lowest of lows. Bloodborne gets it, and that's why we love the game so much. So incredibly thick with atmosphere and feeling, a veritable masterpiece.
My favorite quote in the whole game comes directly after this boss fight.
"Shrouded by night, but with steady stride.
Colored by blood, but always clear of mind."
Those lines hit me right in my gut and immediately became my personal mantra against depression. After beating Ludwig the first time and going up the stairs to hear that, I had to stop playing and take a moment for myself because I was about to break down and didn't know why. The Ludwig tracks just before that moment really set me up for it emotionally.
To me, Bloodborne is one of the most beautiful pieces of art, and always will be. Thanks for doing this.
Now listen to Gehrman, The First Hunter and Father Gascoigne's theme. Those are my favorite Bloodborne soundtrack. 🤩😆
You get any oldtimer pro like this one to listen and you can see exactly why it's a whole other level of soudntrack. Pros recognize each other.
love the deep analysis commentary. i love learning new stuff about music and it's fun to see someone with the knowledge passionate about it! great vids
Finally someone who lets the music play for more than 5 seconds before interrupting it, instead taking it all in and then giving more collected thoughts, lovely.
Happy New Year Geebz! Loved this game and love the music. From Software doesn't miss. excited to see you experience games !
He really said he might start video games and play Bloodborne first what a legend
Oh. Ive been waiting for this!
"Aah, you were at my side all along. My true mentor... my guiding moonlight.."
Oh, yes. This is most certainly the greatest waltz in modern gaming history.
This is the only channel I can legitimately watch reactions. It's a a mixture of a composer who knows what he's doing, but doesn't over explain. And a man who doesn't know the feelings that is about to hit him.
These games are legitimately built of the abstract of not knowing, to see a that even the music can be a boss to some people, hearing a feeling it for the first time. If the composer knows the game and music it hurts the reaction and feeling, seeing a first time reaction is what matters, it's the first time feeling the fear and sheer overwhelming nature of the boss and the themes that contrast they're triumphs and tragedies, *THAT* is what matters.
Absolutely adore your enthusiasm and ability to explain musically why it might make people feel a certain way. Earned a subscribe from me for sure!
Also, I just wanna point out that that's not the full version of the song. The composition is made in 2 parts. The reason why I say so is because it has a specific transition that I really love. But, it's your decision to cover it. Love your work. Keep at it! (You already covered the transition but it is most memorable through the full version of the song)
Yay! I'm glad you did decide to check this one out! I will echo other's suggestions to listen to the first half of the fight's music: Ludwig the Accursed, and then to listen to this one again in succession. The change in music represents a change in the enemy's mental state, and it is a really cool thing to experience.
And if you do plan on playing any games by Fromsoft (such as Bloodbourne, any Dark Souls, or Elden Ring) don't be afraid to do a bit of research if you are getting stuck!!! I know going into an experience blind is a great way to be introduced to many forms of media, but the Fromsoft games tend to be a little obtuse. Initially, there are many aspects of their games that simply aren't clear or intuitive to figure out. Once you get through one, you can pick out the patterns more easily in the next one you try. But it can be a barrier to fun for some players their first time around.
Only watched a few seconds and already love your energy can't wait to watch your reaction!
Totally new kind of content for me and I love your stuff man, great explanations !
Glad to see you want to go into the Souls series. Ludwig is, probably, my favorite boss ever. The character, his lore, the music, the battle, even his final moments, everything combines perfectly and the music explains it, from its melody to its lyrics
Ludwig and midir are my fav bosses in the seres very fun and challenging with amazing music.
Really nice to hear someone having a lot to talk about music you love. Great video! If you're looking to hear more from this game (the OST is incredible), I suggest Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower, Living Failures, Gehrman the Old Hunter or Cleric Beast. But it's hard to go wrong with this OST. Keep up the great work!
Can't wait to see you play some of these games and to catch you live! Btw not sure if it was intentional but *I think you missed a good 4 minuites of the track.* The ost you listened to ''the holy blade'' doesn't start with the big bombastic music but follows on from the end of ''Ludwgig the Accursed'' theme/ its climax. This change of theme also it fits in with the boss lore/ thematically.
When u first fight him you may think of him as nothing more than a hiddious monstrocity, another monster (if not one of the hardest you've faced), which your character (who's a hunter of sorts) must kill. However it is only when he loses half his health that things go to sh***. You enter a cutscene in which Ludwig regains his sanity, stops fighting like a mindless beast and draws his moonlight greatsword (revealing he was not just human but was once a hunter like you). The cutscene ends and you are greeted by ludwig taking up a knights/ sword stance. Above his healthbar his name has changed, revealing he is Ludwig The Holy Blade an old hunter, one of the great legendary heros in Bloodborne.
Hey I'm a spanish speaker so sorry for my bad english. The video is awesome but I came to comments to tell you that on soulsborne OSTs when music fades away on half of the track it always means that the boss has a second fase and the theme usually changes a bit. Great video and keep going!
Your first game should be whatever you are interested in playing
One of my favourite games and songs. Gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it.
Amazing react! Make sure to react to Gerhman The First Hunter OST aswell!
Any good boss battle is like a dance, there's a lot of tension, back and forth, it's beautiful and visceral and leaves you feeling amazed and satisfied at the end. I love the moments that feel very heroic in the second half of Ludwig's theme. You really get an idea of how legendary he was in his time.
It's a bit of a shame to split this from the first half or rather the music that play's for the first half of this one boss fight, the contrast between them is incredible and for me personally I'd say the first half is better, it's definitely a little more unique sounding. But I also understand that time constraints exist :)
Hell yeah! Great video
I don't know if anyone else would find this interesting, but personally I would love to see you watch a short clip of the games featuring the soundtrack that you're reacting to. I feel like it would give you even more to talk about with how the soundtrack interacts with the tone(s) of the games visual style and presentation.
Specifically in Bloodborne's case: Ludwig is renowned as one of the BEST boss fights in all of From Software's games because of how every piece of artistry, ESPECIALLY the soundtracks weaves together into an oppressive, tense, mighty experience.
In your words, your expressions, your reactions, there’s undeniable genuineness, love and understanding of your craft and of the art. One of the only reaction videos I’ve ever thoroughly enjoyed.
6:30 spot on observation. it is KNOWN for being incredibly, and I mean INCREDIBLY dark and gothic. One of the main aspects of the arena this takes place in is the mountain of corpses and blood everywhere. Blood is a powerful thing in this universe, so it’s kinda everywhere. Hence “BLOODborne”
I've enjoyed your channel and admire how you're diving into gaming music right now, have fun on your journey & good luck w/ twitch!
Excellent choice to start things off. Bloodborne is easily one of my all time favorite games, so very happy to see more exposure these many years later
Great work. I always find it refreshing, watching someone speak about a subject in which they're passionate and knowledgeable. I'll never understand people who just don't care about music. How could it not move you? Anyhow, until next time ✌️
The case when you literally regret people deprived of musical hearing! The original chaos of Ludwig's animal nature is structured and ordered by the violin and voices in the climax! A magnificent reflection of the transformation of chaos into harmony and expression of the moon blade!
YESSS i have been waiting for this one!!
Wow, my favourite game! Saw it pop up on my subscription feed and couldn't help but clicking. Came for the TWICE reactions since they are legit the best on yt. I played in orchestra for a decade so the classic terms was a throwback! Well wishes for the new year :)
ps, thought I should leave a recommendation for the "Doughnut" M/V video since I'm already here.
What you said about the interactiveness of a game and the associated feelings from the musical piece could not be more true. These pieces are so well put together and correlated with intricate art direction that I remember the amazing feelings I felt through listening to the actual music itself. It's extremely powerful stuff. Great video!
"Bloodborne - Suite Live with the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra" on youtube is insane! You will love this and have a million things to talk about I have no doubt! Love your channel and seeing it grow!
YESSSS IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE!!!!
I love how he swayed with the music but you can see that he was disturbed and uncomfortable, just vibing with the music. Truly the power of the Old Hunters creeping over him lol
Ooo happy new year! I nevet played bloodborn but ive heard the music in it and its so good. The game is beautiful too from what ive seen from others playing it
I'd suggest listening to this track with its complimenting peice
I’m so glad even after so long Bloodborne is still getting the love it deserves! Good on ya! (Also I love how you actually provide input and explanation to the music inbetween pauses than just saying something along the lines of “that’s cool” than continuing in silence lol.
Awesome reaction video. And then imagine the melody guides the player through the boss fight, cueing how the player should move and react to the different attacks. This interaction through gameplay carried by the music makes videogames so special and memorable.
One music itself made him alerted and "nervous". that's the masterpiece))]
Love this! Also I loved she your face respond to this epic piece!
I find it impressive how he can break down these songs in a presentational way for us to understand the songs better. Love it.
Probably a bit late but I would love to see a reaction to the Lady Maria theme from bloodborne as well. Definitely my favorite from that game.
Oh you would love lady Maria's theme 100%
You earned a sub from me good sir! I love your energy and attitude and think your commentary is very valuable. I wish I had the auditory talent composers like you share, and always appreciate the audiological portraits you guys create. I am glad to see such a great personality on TH-cam!
Thanks for the sub!
Favorite game of all time, favorite theme and boss of all time. You are killer for the reaction brother
Nice to see you and happy new year, Sir
Listen to the video..
I love Bloodborne and Elden Ring music easily my favourite, one of many but they're the highlight.
Gascoigne, Main Menu theme, Ludwig, The One Reborn just to name the few.
Loved that you covered this piece, and appreciate your view on it. subbed!
This is one of the best games ever made for ps4. I know I'm not alone in saying I've put in over a thousand hours on Bloodborne alone, huge fan of the From Software games since the release of Demon's Souls in 09. The music is fantastic, someday I hope you react to the dark souls 1 title screen music (I don't think it has an official name, but you should be able to find it by searching "dark souls 1 title screen music"). It's a mellow, almost lullaby-feeling melody which takes a melancholic turn partway through, and swells back into the main progression. Such a beautiful piece. Anyway thanks again as always for these game ost reactions I love em😎🤙
Way to start out the year, with the best track!
At 6:50 goosebumps all over
"Maybe I'll start with Bloodborne" is one of the most foolishly brave things you could have said.
a reactor who doesnt only say "Huh" or "Ahh", i hope you know you a fucking gem
OOOOOH YESSSSS THIS IS MY FAV OST
This made my cry and idk why lmao
Ludwig’s theme is basically my most favorite song ever. The game came out in 2015, and this song *still* makes my heart race and gives me skin tinglies every time I hear it.
