Only in Xenoblade Chronicles you'll find a track that could easily be ANY final boss battle theme to be just a regular enemy battle theme....thats just how glorious this soundtrack is.
Settlement Gamer Hell yeah it is! My recommendation is to stay as spoiler-free as you can before you play the Definitive Edition for yourself in May. I watched a playthrough way before I had the game, so I "spoiled" myself for Xenoblade 1, but I managed to stay blind for the entirety of Xenoblade 2 and it was so worth it. Honestly, both Xenoblade 1 & 2 are amazing games (I haven't played Xenoblade Chronicles X so I don't know much about it). If you're a fan of JRPGs, then you'll probably love the series. And don't even get me started on the music.
Xenoblade Chronicles is an amazing game, the Definitive Edition is definitely worth picking up. The game really pushed the Wii to its limits with the game's scale, to the point it had to look like a PS2 game to make it all fit and run. You are in for an amazing experience.
From the mechonis sword onwards, the mechonis areas were just such a joy to experience, and this battle theme epitomises what the party are feeling. Finally after years of living in fear for their lives, attacks from the mechon and people being kidnapped and slaughtered, a group of homs are taking the fight back to the mechon, full steam ahead without holding back.
I love how within all of these electronic sounds and instruments, there's still a violin making a hopeful melody - representing Shulk and co with the hope of stopping Egil's plans
ArcRiseGen Please try not to spoil any names of major characters. I know many have played this game but due to the remaster coming soon many people who never had the chance would have such a wonderful story ruined.
@@johnnyneutron1530 Well i mean, just mentioning the name "Egil" won't mean much to someone who hasn't played the game, the only kind of spoiler is the person who replied "Then you find out what's really going on" implying a twist.
This song is the instrumental equivalent to "Born in a world of strife, against the odds, we choose to fight! BLOSSOM DANCE." And 1:50 onwards is the instrumental equivalent to "You're not invincible, Monado Enchant!"
Remember kids: This isn't a "Boss" theme, nor a "Strong/Important Enemy" theme, this is A (Implying plural) COMMON Enemy theme. This whole series has banger OSTs though, give them all a listen.
One of the best parts of any game ever, and this song is such an important part of it - not only is it just absolutely fantastic, but it really perfectly matches the mood of the game at this point with how you feel like everything’s ramping up and coming to a head, and it even works thematically as a representation of the growing vengeful rage that Shulk (and Zanza) are feeling at this point You’re a 7-man army that’s actually starting to look like it’s going to succeed in leading the revolution against an entire world of war machines, but the mix of emotions it took to get there is starting to become unsustainable and deeply dangerous
FR, but now that I'm revisit of bionis interior it makes me wish I stocked up energy aubergines for colony 6. Anyone who isn't at level 5 Colony 6 stuff, collect anything that is in mechonis, it gets rare later.
I think you heard the most amazing ones, though. Every single one I hear before the DE comes out are the most loved ones, like the ones they reorchestrated there: th-cam.com/video/h0dW8Gk8VvE/w-d-xo.html . Of course, they’re also my favorites.
I first head this song from Smash 4, and I couldn't figure out where it came from - it wasn't like the other Xenoblade songs. Fast forward a year or so, and I target an enemy on the Fallen Arm. It's such a breath of fresh air from Time to Fight. Then I got to Mechonis Core and heard Irregular Bound...
Gotta agree with you. Hot take here, all the tracks in the Remaster are not as good as the original and I was happy to see that they let you listen to the original sound track over the arranged if you wanted.
I sorta disagree, but hey, that's my opinion. I like the furthering of the more mechanical-sounding instruments of the song in the remaster, personally.
The odd part about XC1's soundtrack is how realistic it sounds. It's played by MIDI instruments but it still sounds real. 1/23/2024 edit: I realized that the compression made it sound like this based on the replies. And well the song. Which means yeah, real instruments are being used, but the compression makes it sound otherwise.
I'm pretty sure they used quite a lot of real electric guitars / drums (at least that what I'm hearing in this track), but I'm surprised that the MIDI strings don't detract to its intensity.
This shares a lot in common with You Will Know Our Names (the chorus especially). I thought it was a new unique monster battle theme the first time I heard it.
Only now do I recognize the brilliance of this theme. *ONLY NOW* do I see why they decided to put this into the latter half of the game. "Time to Fight" was the warm up, while "Mechanical Rhythm" was your POWER-LEVELING MUSIC. This is where you wanted to keep chaining enemies for hours on end, then you run out of enemies...
*Shows track to friend "Wow that's an epic boss theme" "This isn't a boss, it's the regular combat theme for the 2nd half of the game" "What the-" "Yes."
I CANNOT WAIT TO FUCKING HEAR THIS NOW THAT WE KNOW THE OST WILL BE RERECORDED MAY 29TH HERE WE FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Now that I think about it, given the rock-heavy nature of that game, I was thinking the very last mission (Last Line of Defense at Luthien) of _MechWarrior 2: Mercenaries._
Mechanical rhythm needs more love, I always hear people talk about how good Guar plain is or Tephra cave or other songs but this one is my genuine favorite.
Don't you think it's coincidence this battle theme replaces the old theme when Seven joins the party? Almost like it's "built" into their character design? 😏
I'm pretty sure this battle theme first plays when you reach Sword Valley (Directly after Valak Mountain), so no, Seven doesn't have anything to do with this theme. As they still haven't joined your party.
Has anyone noticed that the first part is a violin playing the chorus, and the second chorus is a guitar. It's like the violin was having to much fun, and the guitar said ok you had enough screen time now it's my turn
Not a big fan of Xenoblade, but EPIC metal theme! Favorite parts: 0:00 - 1:13 0:41 - 1:22 1:23 - 1:48 1:51 - 2:25 everything after that is pretty cool, imo
Man, I wish this was the theme you used when you had to lure enemies. At this point of the adventure, I went "holy shit, we smashed the Sinistar, but we're not done yet!"

こんなにカッコいい曲はなかなか無い。
That Mechonis climb is super epic. From leaving the hand to start the climb to the moment you reach the top.
One of the best parts of any game ever, and this song is such an important part of it - not only is it just absolutely fantastic, but it really perfectly matches the mood of the game at this point with how you feel like everything’s ramping up and coming to a head, and it even works thematically as a representation of the growing vengeful rage that Shulk (and Zanza) are feeling at this point
You’re a 7-man army that’s actually starting to look like it’s going to succeed in leading the revolution against an entire world of war machines, but the mix of emotions it took to get there is starting to become unsustainable and deeply dangerous
FR, but now that I'm revisit of bionis interior it makes me wish I stocked up energy aubergines for colony 6. Anyone who isn't at level 5 Colony 6 stuff, collect anything that is in mechonis, it gets rare later.
My favorite type of music is now Xenoblade music. Every song in Xenoblade is awesome.

Gonna be honest.
I think I prefer this over the remastered version.
Both are great, and the good thing is, you have the choice in-game, win-win.
@Jostin Aleman Good thing you can choose it in game, then. =D
I like the opening of this one more, but the main melody sounds better in the remaster.

@@LegamSSFAh, I see. The guitars sound real, but the comments gave me the impression that it was mostly MIDI.
A lot of the instruments that they used were real, however they had to do some compression because this was the Wii we're talking about
Nintendo uses real instruments. It's the compression that makes the audio lossy. I guess that's why they remade the soundtrack with DE.
this is.... beautiful
Listening to this motivates me honestly
Can’t wait to hear this masterpiece remixed in Definitive Edition
Aaahhhh, the nostalgia of Smashing mechon in a small room in galahad fortress
That part was epic. It was such a confined space to fight in but still immensely satisfying to trash those Mechon.
This shares a lot in common with You Will Know Our Names (the chorus especially). I thought it was a new unique monster battle theme the first time I heard it.
This reminds me a lot of Incoming! from 2, they're both metal songs with epic violin chorus

Just have to say, thank goodness the remaster lets you play with the original soundtrack.
ikr! Like the remastered songs are nice, but I don't really like all the harmonies as compared to the original
Yeah, I really commend them for doing that. I didnt even know it was possible, but I like the new versions, so its not much of a loss for me
I prefer the remastered area themes while I prefer the original battle themes
This goes hard everytime you take on a way higher lvl enemy than you just to see how much time you can survive the fight
Best thing aboit xenoblade music in all the games is them absolutely going to town on the electric guitar
Started playing the game and honestly i just wanna keep playing so I can get the dopamine rush once i get to the point where this song plays
Everybody do the Mechon dance!
The way the original version of this song is mixed makes it sound kinda like a Blazeblue song!
The soundtrack in which the original is heavier and goes HARDER than ANY cover
Imagine they make an anime of this game starting after the end of xenoblade 1
Currently at Mechonis Field.
This is the perfect tune for turning hordes of Mechon into scrap metal.
