    Id purpose means an lot to Fire emblem fans as because that sudden second part the vocals sing out the theme song of Fire emblem as an series. It means so much cause like you correctly asserted it’s an final boss theme and this game was going to be the finale of the FE series if the game didn’t sell well/. Needless to say it sold well, but it’s nice cause the music team wanted to have the potential end of this long running series to end on its iconic theme

    A bunch of tracks of this ost are named after lines characters say during scenes in which the track plays, like "And what if I can't? What if I'm not worthy of her ideals?" and "Don't speak her name!". There is also "......" which is basically only found in the playlist because the search engine can't handle searching for it, and the wonderfully named "Agh! Won goph in mah mouph! Blech! Ptooey!".

    A notable thing about the Fire Emblem Awakening soundtrack is that there will often be two versions of the song, one just regular and one with (Ablaze) added on. The regular version of the song (usually a more chill version of the song) will play while on the battle map, and then the Ablaze version (which is a more intense, dramatic version of the song) will play when you engage in combat

    • @tusken9669
      @tusken9669 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

      Some other games in the series use map themes for your turn and for the enemies turn, then switch to entirely different battle themes, but Awakening (for instance) seamlessly switches in and out of the map themes and their combat versions. The enemy turn battle version uses "(Galvanized)" as a title add-on.

    Nice note about "You have power... like mine" that's a treat for people who played the games before this
    This track is a rearrangement of a theme for an older character in the series, and this plays for their reintroduction to the story
    In that way, it's not only beautiful, but also kind of nostalgic

  • @GreatBeanicus
    @GreatBeanicus 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +50

    Would it surprise you to hear that "Don't speak her name" despite being such a major theme actually plays less than halfway through the game? Even more surprising is that it plays during the entire gameplay section of the chapter it plays on.
    The enemy troops are moved by a major sacrifice but are under threat of death by their mad king. The general of this force speaks throughout the chapter telling his men to throw down their arms, that he will take the blame for them. It wouldn't be a strategy war map if they all threw down their arms, and they ultimately choose to fight with their general. But in a game with generic identical looking soldiers, they made these soldiers share in the emotion of the chapter. It's brilliant honestly.
    Music can really bring so much beauty to an experience

    • @rhymeswithmoose228
      @rhymeswithmoose228 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

      One tiny thing during that chapter is that the soldier who primarily speaks to the general is the most generic portrait, so generic its shared across all factions (just recolored to show enemies and allies). Like, I doubt its intentional, but it really drives home the idea that there is ultimately no real difference between these people other than those above them.

    • @KingWoop72
      @KingWoop72 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Not to mention that, unlike most Awakening chapters, its a "Defeat the Boss" objective. You can, and are by the tone of the scene encouraged, to just rush through the chapter and escape, only fighting the necessary battle, and sparing those who are still questioning if they *should* fight anymore, even if they decided to stand with their general.
      The boss, Mustafa, even doesnt want to fight, and is more or less sacrificing himself so his troops dont suffer for desertion.

    Id (which I believe refers to part of the 3-part psychoanalytical concept as proposed by Sigmund Freud, where the id is the always underlying instinct in even higher thinking beings) is the song that plays during the final battle. Something of particular note in the song is that from 20:11 to 21:21 (in your video, obviously) is actually the leitmotif of the Fire Emblem series as a whole.

    If you want to know about the story behind the song (Dont speak her name) here is the gist. Spoilers:
    Basically, A loved character sacrifices herself in the hopes of a stop to the war between two neighboring kingdoms. Her sacrifice speaks to all people except for the mad king of the invading kingdom. Good guys are escaping, and a high rank general stays and fights, even though he believes in the sacrifice that was just made. He tells one of the main characters this, and the main character in turn responds with the title of the song.

    The last theme you heard so happens to be the final map theme in the game. The series was on its last legs when the game released meaning one more commercial failure meant an end for the series.

    About your guess that the theme 'you have power...like mine' alludes to something fairy-like, I'd say it could probably be called fey-adjacent. It's the theme that plays when you meet a character referred to by those who only know _of_ her as the 'voice' of Naga, who is the goddess worshipped by those who fight on the side of 'good' in the Fire Emblem series. So the character is seen as an apostle, but what the people see as her 'hearing the voice of the goddess' in that really religious way they would, is actually just Naga talking to her...great-granddaughter, I think? If that? They're dragons, they live basically forever, yada, yada.

    To expand on the differentiation between the regular tracks and the Ablaze variants-- (Alert! Infodump incoming!)
    Fire Emblem is defined as a "Turn-Based Tactical Strategy" game, which essentially means that it plays like an overcomplicated version of chess mixed with a standard RPG, except you get to move every unit on the field one at a time instead of just one whenever it's your turn. The majority of the gameplay has you taking on a bird's-eye view over the battlefield, moving your units and checking enemy units' strength and movement ranges and determining which of your units will take on which enemies. The regular tracks play while you're in this 'tactician's view.' Once you order a unit to engage an enemy unit, or an enemy engages one of your units, the camera zooms in and you get to watch the round of combat play out, which is when the Ablaze variant kicks in. Once the round is over, the camera zooms back out, and the track switches back to the regular version.
    It's worth noting that Awakening was actually the first game in the series to employ this dynamic switching between calm and battle variants for level (or 'map') themes. Every FE game prior had dedicated battle themes that were entirely distinct from the map themes--and for a large majority of those games, you only had a single battle theme for anyone who wasn't a boss. Or, well, technically two: one for combat occurring on the player's turn, and one for combat during the enemy's turn. The third and ninth games - Mystery of the Emblem and Path of Radiance respectively - were the only games who broke this trend, and even then it was only by technicality as they only had four; two for the first half of the game, and the other two for the second half. And then came Path of Radiance's sequel, Radiant Dawn, which finally broke the mold and featured multiple unique player-phase and enemy-phase battle themes unique to each in-game faction.
    After Awakening, though, the series essentially switched completely to this new dynamic map music style. In fact, the only game that didn't do so was a remake of an older game.
    And now, some trivia:
    "Conquest" is actually a remix of the main Fire Emblem theme, of which some variant has been the title screen theme for every game in the series except for FE2, FE9, FE14, FE15, and FE17. And even if it's not the title screen theme, you'll be able to hear it at least somewhere in every game.
    "You have power... like mine." is a modern version of the theme "Legend of the Divine Dragon" which originally appeared in FE3. It's also popped up in FE7 as "Legend of the Dragon God," and in FE11 as "The Little Divine Dragon." It's typically associated with the character Tiki, who appeared as a child in FE1 and FE3 and their remakes FE11 and FE12, and then returned in Awakening as an adult, having spent a thousand years alternating between sleeping and trying not to think about the fact that she's outlived all her old friends.

    Honestly the themes shown here were a fantastic representation of the game as a whole. Glad to hear your opinion on each of them as well as get a little more insight on each theme.
    Was a little surprised there weren't as many map/battle themes here though. I can't say even one of them was underwhelming.
    If you get a chance, listen to both the normal and ablaze themes one after another. Many of them are what you expect from a standard and then more intense version of the song, Prelude being a great example. But i can't even choose which of the two Conquest themes is my favorite because they're both so beautiful, even if the main theme of the series does annoy me here. These themes are made to change fluidly from one to the other as you enter and exit combat and it amazes me how different some can be. The instrumentation can take some wild turns too, and honestly Chaos is my favorite example of this. Sound warning for a first time listener though, Chaos (Ablaze) is a very abruptly loud theme.

    Which is fitting, the character this theme is about gives a speech and sacrifices themselves. And all those around them are led by their example, echo their sentiments and take them forward in different ways.

She scarified herself to hopefully end the conflict between her country and the other, and now the main lord must deal with his sister dying, a war still going on, AND being the 2nd oldest royal, so he's going to be king after all this.

    I really love Id (Purpose), an amazing theme for the end of the game but something especially cool about it is that it uses the main melody of the game heard all throughout the various Id tracks in the game, like Beginning, Serenity, and Sorrow. So you spend the entire game hearing this melody to then hearing this marvelous use of it at the end it's so good. In psychology the Id is the primitive, basic, and fully unconscious part of personality. This melody is the theme of the main character, who they are at their very core.

    For me what really brings ID Purpose home is that the the base of the song is present at the beginning of the game when the Robin wakes up in the field for the first time.

    One of the best soundtracks of all time. Incredible use of leitmotifs, incredible mastery of evoking emotions in the player, incredible matching of song feel to the game. I never don't tear up to Don't Speak Her Name, especially combined with the imagery burned into my mind of pouring rain freezing as my character scores a critical hit.

    Don’t Speak Her Name is one of my favorite Fire Emblem songs of all time. It’s so many themes coming together to just explain the full emotional weight of Chrom‘s grief and his anger

    So speaking of Id Purpose feeling like it's in a constant state of buildup, part of what makes it so great is the track that comes right before it and leads into it, called Id Return. Not only for how it sounds but also for how it aligns with what's happening in the game at the time. Someone actually made an upload here that has Id Return transition into Id Purpose as it does in the game; i'd say it's worth giving a listen if you have a moment.

    The "Id" messes with my brain, too.
    The amazing thing about "Don't speak her name!" is that it reuses familiar themes to punch you in the gut, and wildly oscillates between sorrow and rage. I recently watched an analysis of that track, it was quite fascinating.
    I have no idea if you take suggestions, but here are some other soundtracks to check out (if you haven't already):
    Fire Emblem Path of Radiance & Radiant Dawn
    Fire Emblem Echoes
    Pretty much every Zelda game
    Baten Kaitos I & II
    The "Tales of" series
    The Valkyrie Profile games, especially Silmeria
    Trusty Bell (Chopin's Dream)

    I think you would have liked "Old Battlefield" also. It basically is the ending theme of the game.

  • @rabidporcupine0
    @rabidporcupine0 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Ok, so first off, really like this, but I wish whoever sent all the music had sent a few of the other Id versions as well before Purpose, probably Serenity and then Return, because while it sounds good on it's own, I still feel like the best part of it's impact is how it's the epic final battle version of the leitmotif that's been playing through the whole game, you know?

  • @koro___

    I prefer the non-ablaze version of Conquest, give it a listen on your own time maybe.

  • @blivveries
    @blivveries 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    With Fire Emblem being a tactical RPG, each "map theme" has two variants: a base version that plays while you're choosing your actions, looking at unit stats, etc.; and a more intense variant (subtitled "Ablaze" or something similar) for when you've made your move and watching your units attack. "Prelude" was an example of a map theme, and "Conquest" was an example of an attack variant! The two versions of each theme cross-fade seamlessly, making the individual battles have so much more impact! (Id ~ Purpose, being the finale theme, plays throughout the map with no variation.)
    The songs with quotes for titles are all cutscene tracks. "Don't speak her name!" also has the privilege of carrying from its cutscene straight into the next map, overriding the usual "map/battle" variants.
    ...Come to think of it, since you heard Sonic 06, my random-commenter's-suggestion from way back is fulfilled, huh? Hey, if you liked Undertale, you should listen to Touhou sometime...

  • @constantgaming2275
    @constantgaming2275 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Fire emblem is a tactical RPG, that's somewhat like chess, each character has both a weapon type they can use, which usually are swords, Lance's, axes, bows, magic tomes, and magic staffs, though it varies from each game, and movement, so for example armoured units have better defenses but move less, fliers like Pegasus knights can ignore the terrain and go to places where there is no floor, cavaliers can move faster but usually have difficulties moving through terrains like sand or forests, etc
    It's very easy to play even for new players, in fact awakening was made to be the last game, as previous entries didn't earn Nintendo as much as desired, but it was done so well, it ended up reviving the franchise
    It was in fact my first fire emblem, and from there I went on to play other entries (like shadow dragon for the Nintendo ds, or radiant dawn for the Wii).
    Also funny thing, awakening had difficulty with graphics so characters fought on the screen without feet, there are so many memes about feet and fire emblem😅

    If you wanna listen to more I highly recommend listening to Fates and Three Houses soundtracks. Both are very unique and are equally as amazing!

    Three Houses is definitely the next Fire Emblem OST that you should take a look at. And I know I’m in the minority here, but I feel like Fire Emblem 7 (The first one released outside of Japan, localized as just “Fire Emblem”) is worth taking a look at too. Yes, the GBA sound chip was limiting, but it’s honestly so impressive what they were able to do with that limitation.

  • @adamkampen
    @adamkampen 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    "Don't speak her name!" is one of the best songs in the series I'm sure. It's such a strong theme during one of the peaks of emotion in the game

  • @constantgaming2275
    @constantgaming2275 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    YES, FIRE EMBLEM FOR THE WIN.
    Also, each fire emblem game has different music directions so awakening music is different from Fates music or Three houses
    Fire emblem is one of my favourite videogame series, second only to Pokemon of course 🤣

    Yessss I'm excited for this!! If you wanna look into Fire Emblem some more, Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia is definitely up there OST wise in my opinion. Twilight of the Gods is a MUST, especially if you enjoy vocals. I would also recommend Heritors of Arcadia, Truth, Song of Bygone Days, The Mad God's Blessing... the list goes on.

  • @clemente3966
    @clemente3966 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    If there would be another Fire Emblem video one day, I think it would be best to just take some ost from a few games instead of focusing on one game at the time. Because there would be quite a lot to listen to otherwise, even if there would be videos for maybe Shadows of Valentia, Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn, Fates, 3 Houses and Engage.
    I'm saying that because I can't help but imagine that doing one game per video would make it feel long and/or boring, even with other games between each one.
    I know that is assuming right there, but I wanted to propose an alternative just in case.
    Though I did mean it when I said it would feel long, knowing how long it took me to go through let's plays of each game aside from the 4th and 5th ones and 3 Houses and Engage.
