Honestly, the whole OST from Death's Gambit is awesome and more people should listen to it! Shame the game's a hidden gem, because it's honestly one of the best games I've played in the last few years.
The battle itself is very powerful scene and the dialog that plays during the epic fight is really memorable.
Its one of those "hidden gems" games that i loved, great soundtrack.
"By virtue of the Divine Order, her life is already forfeit. What are you waiting for? This is your moment, the culmination of your struggle. End it all. Embrace your destiny."
"You... you were forged by war... but I knew a time before it. Will you continue to feed into this cycle of death? Sorun, if you destroy it, all immortals will die. And I - I will not endure this torture again. Ask yourself if it's worth it!"
"Death feeds you lies to keep you complacent!"
Hidden Souls like.
This song plays even harder. When you get to the true final boss, can you see the real ending It'll make you cry
I was never expecting anyone to dissect Endless. It's one of my favorite pieces of music period from one of my favorite games period, and your analogies were almost spot on to the context of when this plays, Death's Gambit is such a great, overlooked game, and I thank you for reacting to it.
Just bought this game and immediately blown away by the title card music.
Right? Hard to even start the game and interrupt it.
You're in luck. The entire soundtrack is just as good.
Death's gambit is an excellent game, and starting off with Endless is a good choice.
I actually recommended this one in the Patreon. It's a great game. I always wanted more people to know about it. Knew Marco would love it.
It's so good!
@MarcoMeatball I also recommend The Avatar as one of the single most menacing pieces I have ever heard.
Death gambit is super underrated, it had a bad launch which ruined its reputation but the game was fixed and improved upon in so many ways with afterlife expansion I advise anyone who left the game at launch to give it another shot its one of the best souls like metroidvania out there
Can't believe you are finally covering it. This game is honestly a wonderful journey and a touching piece of art. The Avatar and Afterlife are also 2 must hear themes. Glad you liked it, Marco, cheers.
I think Marco was on point with this one.
Death's Gambit's narrative keeps you constantly questioning what are your true reasons for fighting and seeing your quest through. And as your learn more about your character's past and the world, you can't help but wonder if it was really worth it.
Amazing video! Keep up the great work, Marco!
I'm so glad you finally did this. I recommend it to you way back when you first started this channel.
This song is an absolute masterpiece in the context of the battle. It's a roller coaster of emotions that perfectly fits
***SPOILERS***
How you'd feel having to go up against your own mother in a battle to the death after spending your entire adult life searching for her after she went off to war and never returned.
Death's Gambit is criminally underrated. It's one of the few games that has ever made me cry because I sympathize and care about the characters and their struggles. Everything that happens to Soran is unfair and he doesn't deserve a bit of it.
If you're going to cover more I recommend Galaxy Mage Amulvaro and Moonlit Sniper/Moonlit Strings.
I never expected to see Death's Gambit on this channel, it is such a neat but niche game. I immediately fell in love with it when I just heard the title theme.
Death's Gambit has been one of my favorite underrated games over the last several years, I even pre-ordered this game.
Endless was one of those bosses that made me tear up.
I'm so glad this game is getting the recognition it deserves.
What makes me love this particular track is the amount of emotion it draws out of you.
MASSIVE SPOILERS FOR THIS EXPLANATION! (and the lore is very difficult to discern, so take everything with a grain of salt.)
Endless is your mother. She was forced to go on something called a Great Expedition, a journey to Siradon and Caer Siorai, the Cradle of Immortality, in an attempt to either capture or destroy the Source of Immortality for the nation of Vados. She promises to return, but never does. Although she doesn't die, she becomes an Immortal herself (not sure how, again the lore is not clear to my knowledge). She then seeks out to protect it, slaughtering hundreds of Vados soldiers that get sent on what is essentially a death sentence.
Her reason for this is that she wants to stop the suffering, the pain, the death that has gripped the land. She sees the Source as the means to obtain true peace among the nations. She doesn't want her son, you, Sorun, to go through the same torment that she has. In addition, the exiled god, Thalamus, crafted the lie that the afterlife was actually his realm of Y'lnoth, a land of torment and despair. She, along with all Immortals, became terrified of death. This was another factor in her plans.
Although Immortality is, in reality, more a curse than a blessing. Watching everything and everyone you love pass away and decay, while you drift further and further into despair.
It's way to difficult for me to further elaborate on why this fight is so emotional. You should go play the game and experience the story yourself.
To understand why everyone in the comments says that this is one of the most underrated games in the world you only need to know that its developer is currently working with Toby Fox on Deltarune.
Im so glad that you are covering this, one of my favorite games that I think needs more attention. I really recommend to listen to galaxy mage amulvaro.
EXTREMELY UNDERRATED GAME. I played it long ago and couldn't believe more people didn't know about it. 2D Souls castlevania game with amazing art and music.
i would love to see you stream deaths gambit at some point, its an honestly beautiful game
I think I left a comment about this track awhile ago, I'm really happy to see you covering it! Death's Gambit has one of my favorite OSTs of any video game easily.
Uploader of the Music Video seen in the bottom right corner. Loved your Analysis! 🙏😊👍
Thanks you for uploading man. I just wanted to tell you here
I imagine the transitions in this track for every transition in battle phase of the actual fight. There are several phases and I think the music and the battle are tailored for each other. Especially the transition at 2:34 IIRC that's almost ALWAYS at another phase where Endless throws a ton of fireballs at you. It's a long battle and I think your interpretations are almost on-point as [SPOILERS] Endless is your mom that has taken a curse same as you. I guess also at 4:23 is a point where you (the player) are weathered, probably at 3rd or 4th stage or even almost at the end of the fight. In addition, the soundtrack hits hard because, it's a difficult fight, and at the beginning of the battle march, Endless always says 'WE were sent here, to DIE, but WE persevered!'
woah, what a surprise to check in on your channel and discover that you listened to to a music track from one of my favourite games ever
Marco I am so happy you are listening to Death's Gambit OST
as a composer it inspired me to take this weird journey of eliciting the same emotional response I got when I played this for the first time- I literally could barely get through the fight because of how good the motif was and how early it was established- it really built up into exactly what you said, and I heavily encourage you to listen to more of the OST and play the game- You would relate a lot to it, been a superfan since the beginning of your channel and I popped off SO HARD seeing you review that emotional rollercoaster of a song.
!!!! It’s on my personal to do list actually
I have this as my ringtone And how you went into depth about how it feels like your fighting for someone is actually right.
OMG, that was awesome! I recommend listening to The Avatar and Afterlife tracks from Death's Gambit Afterlife.
Ooooo I love this game! I believe it's "slept on" as the kids say.
This song just captivated me into wanting to know more of what the game is about
I remember buying this game on PS4. I tried it and said, "wow cool. it's like a metroid souls, neat." Then I got inside a space ship I was "What the heck?!? Wasn't this game a medieval fantasy?" Then I abandoned the game for at least 4/5 years. when I went back to play it again I found it completely changed. It was a nice surprise. Still too hard for me sometimes.
Dammit how did I miss this.
You really gotta react to more, Marco, especially the Afterlife track.
i really like this. the rhythm is very bouncy. the time signature shifts are epic too. adding this to my playlist. a lot of the x/8 time signatures are my favorite cuz of the bounciness. it's just fun to listen to and play.
I think that this is a soundtrack that could really stand to have some extra attention. Some of the songs are epic in a distinctly unsettling way that still maintains "boss bombast" and others l are also distinctly gentle, like you got hints of in this songs.
Thanks a ton!
You're welcome!
Even though I do not think the game is super polished, it is in my top 10 games of all time. And this ost and fight helped put it that high.
Yoo Death’s Gambit! Always thought it was a good game that got even better with its Afterlife expansion/revamp. Definitely glad to see this, more exposure is always good
Edit: I saw you were looking forward to the rest of the OST. Some other good ones in my opinion are: the game's opening "Forest Meadow", "Afterlife", "The Grey Wanderer", and "A Murder of Crows"
this might be the most underrated game ever
My brother here described Endless/Everly better then I can only by hearing the OTS...
hey cool i remember that i suggested this song.
(also this game is very good, absolutely worth playing)
Hey Marco you definitely should do a playthrough of Lies of P and check out some of the songs from its soundtrack. It's got all the kinds of music you would appreciate as far as classically
I stopped halfway! Great game and amazing music. One of my favorites of the year
I would like to recommend a Videogame OST for you. The game is called Path to Nowhere
It has some Excellent music in it
i agree, the game's music is exceptionnal
Wow what a song ro wake up to 😮
I know you do video game themes but if you ever do others Light and Ls themes in death note are fantastic and definitely worth the listen and breakdown.
I'd love for you to listen to "Phantom Liberty" from the expansion of the same name for Cyberpunk 2077.
You should listen to some songs from the Dead Cells ost if you havent already. The game is super fun and the music is amazing.❤
I really hope he listens to the avatar from deaths gambit at some point. Been listening to it again and its so good
do you have a full name of the song or its just avatar?
@@Ahmet-co8psThe song is simply called "The Avatar"
Hello! Really love your videos. I want to recommend music from Medieval 2 Total War and Rome Total War. Especially Greek intro theme, Solenka and Death Lullaby. Even if the current TW games are plagued by problems the older titles are great. Also, you can listen to Medieval 2 Total War Kingdoms intro music (not Thrones of Brittania) after listening to Greek theme from Rome 1.
If you’ll end up watching the Greek intro the remaster is well done but my heart is with the original
Hey Marco, I remember you mentioning making videos about the Plague Tale's soundtrack previously. Is it still in the cards or have you dropped it?
A question to you (idk if you covered this already):
Do you think that video games that are based on movies need to have the exact music as in the movies.
Example Avatar frontiers of pandora:
There is a avatar game (James Cameron avatar)
coming from Ubisoft. Does the music need to be the exact one like James horner made or can it still have the same feelings even though it sounds different? Or Hogwarts legacy?
No! They can and should be their own things!
@@MarcoMeatball interesting 🤔. Thank for the opinion dude 👐
you should react to Nioh 2's The Interim OST, and Yatsu No Kami's theme
What about Amulvaro's boss theme?
my nightmare....
Can you do one for Jax Champion theme pls 🙏🙏🙏
Please listen to deus ex ost soundtrack 🙏🏾
Can you do Hollow Knight? Preferably the mantis Lords.
Created by John Williams, Duel of the Fates is one of the best orchestras presented in films. The lyrics are based on archaic fragments of the Welsh poem Cad Goddeu and sung in Sanskrit. The choir brings a ritualistic sensation, a quasi-religious feeling. You should totally listen to it 😊
This is a video game music channel 🤣
Dude EVERYBODY knows about Duel of the Fates to the point the song is a meme now, there's no point in analyzing it and even more so on a video game music channel
@@mrwallace7645 thanks, you're awesome
@@AbrahanPlayer just basically said you're dumb but okay i guess
