everyone stanning the OST, and here's me thinking about how someone speedrun a game at a release which minimum takes 20-30 hours to complete, tracked down every roll (and maybe had to grind gil for them) right at release (where there's limited info about the game). Then sat down, transcribed every tune and then RECORDED them, all in like a week from the game coming out. That's some serious hard graft and serious musical ability, the musicianship in these recordings are pretty professional too... Credit where credit's due folks...
Joshua's theme for some reason just hit my heart so hard every time it came up, no matter the context, no matter the version (be it epic or sad), just tears would immediately start rolling down my face.. I have no idea why but this theme just so easily opens me up and gets me very vulnerable and emotional.. truly something special❤
41:35 That scene made me cry especially when the violin started along too. Hands down, an amazing game that has my vote even if it may not be GOTY but it will have a special place in my heart of video games. Btw, thank you Chewie for the video
This game truly deserves to be GOTY - this is easily one of the best games I have ever played. You can see and feel how much love and passion went into this game!
This is the greatest video game I’ve ever played… it’s not only been a great experience playing but some of the music I’ll be listening to probably for the rest of my life
@@mr.nattyolimpia6437 Yeah, if I were to have a wedding. I would love for the Final Fantasy theme to play as my future bride/wife walks down the aisle.
surprise, hes not dead. See the red star when Jill's Crying, and then dawn approaches. the Res star disappeared, which means Jill's Prayer has been granted. You may not see clive, but thats the point of the whole game. its a story about hope and believe
@@deoxysajaib3826 ofc it's not confirmed yet, but realizing that Yoshida told us to focus on some symbolism on the game gave us hope tho! With those endgame side quests, and those important dialogues, if you know, you know that Clive's alive:) but remember it's not confirmed yet, but surely there's a high chance. But What for? Yoshida said to focus on some symbolism if not for the ending? The story is soooo rich that we must focus on some details... And unfortunately people don't... Side quest was trash and they skipped it, even though it has some important dialogues just like what I said :) Remember the book on the post-credit scene? Theres a side quest when Hippocratus gave Clive a pen, and he (Clive) will write all their journey into a book. And that's it! I dont care if it was written by Joshua, remembering that Clive is too kindhearted, even put Cid's legacy to his name, soo yeah
@@tamapf YEAAAAH THX, i've already read at that the reddit tho, everything all details together just make sense already. hypothesis That clive is alive, are very strong when we snap all the details given. Thx man, appreciate so much for the comments
This is such a beautiful collection. Every piece makes me relive moments from the game. This has become my good night lullaby. You are so talented. Thank you for warming our hearts ❤🎉 Please keep up with your great work
All of these are so fantastic! I really wish I could play the Hideaway theme song on the piano so much. I will always cry to that song because it's Cid's theme! 😭
Im just left astonished with the music in this game. Especially the tracks The Thousands Tables and Indomitable the later especially, It's a play that sounds like FF7 theme is incorporated beautifully. Well done on this lovely cover BTW.
This is by far the best and I think also the first full FFXVI compilation soundtrack done from a fan and I take my hat off to you. If it wasn’t for these long form song videos from Final Fantasy I don’t know if I could crank out my 100 cases at work so easily. They help me focus so much.
Such beautiful playing. Knowledge of how to play a piece is much more than reading notes on the page. The interpretation of the musical feeling is what separates the good from the great. You captured this incredibly well.
Music from FF never disappoints. Absolute masterpieces - and each OST is very synonymous with each standalone entry of the franchise. Thank you for these marvellous piano arrangements!!!
Just realize that "Joshua and Clive" is literally a combination of "Away" and "Find the Flame" But from all of this soundtrack Jill's offering is the saddest knowing the context of the story. Just finished the game and now I feel satisfied but at the same time empty. Just like when you finally experienced something amazing and do not know what to do next.
Very beautiful. Seemingly the only place I could find "our terms" on all of youtube. which then led me to listening to the entire collection for hours on end.
I dunno why but hearing Hide, Hideaway in piano sounds so much like something Nobuo Uematsu would have composed. And I think that's the highest praise I could possibly give a composition.
Looping Lovely Dark & Deep while I study Korean lol, so good. The music in this game was so great, and I love how you put it all to piano so I can keep listening to it! Thanks!
it won best soundtrack at the game awards lol I don't think anyone's underrating it. Everyone, FF fans and otherwise, admit that Soken is the goat and his music is next level
The hideaway ‘our terms’ theme is definitely based on the amourot theme from FF14, when I heard it for the first time on the game I was like Oh my goddddd…
Phew this is really some phenomenal stuff 👏👏👏👏 knew this game would be packed with goodness but it’s only exceeded my expectations and continues to every time I hear something from it or play it. Gotta say I think twilight or a thousand fables might be my favorites but every time I hear any of these I change my mind they’re all amazing
Recently, many J-RPG have included some sort of fishing mini-games. Now, I absolutely want some kind of a musical mini-game that lets me play an instrument while the notes (and the sheet music) scrolls through ! Specifically, I can't wait to play "Idylls of the Empire" on my ocarina :D
Beautiful as always, Chewie ryndiaComfy chewieMmm I'm loving this game so much, definitely lived up to the hype, personally And the music is soooo good! Really happy you did a piano cover collection for it
Hopefully this album will be out on Spotify soon! 🙏
I sure hope so.
Yes please!!!
Please!!!
Apple Music too? ❤
@@Fhillasthis!
This game made me realize how important family truly is especially when it comes to fighting a behemoth with your brother
The usage of the classic FF themes were so well done in this game. Gets ya right in the feels
Yeah so much familiar...magnificent
TRUEEE T.T i really love how they incorporated the classic FF theme in the musics
@@nadheendin711Thats why they are really cool !
Definitely
XVI is a "Pyrrhic victory" feeling for me@thejohnwu
34:50 This is the best OST for me. Hearing that part and thinking of that scene with Jill, just hits different.

Joshua's theme is so beautiful. Every time I heard it in the game I teared up.
Fr thats soooo beautiful 😄
Wait.. you mean to tell me this is not the official piano soundtrack, but YOU?? The game just came out like how o.o
Legend has it Soken straight up burnt the cancer from his body as a result of writing these masterpieces and arised as the pheonix ❤
17.Jill’s offering is probably the most beautiful love scene that I’ve seen in all games so far
And all my dumb brain could think about is how much they'd complain about the sands and rocks being *everywhere* the next morning
@@OracleGrouse don’t worry, they are dominants and have magic 😁😁
@@hermonylee6123well, one of them was likely dominant that night 👀

I absolutely think this is game of the year contender. There’s only Zelda and this.
@@step2058And Starfield
41:36 finally i found thiss I cried hearing this at the end of Jill and Clive's farewell .. oh this is so beautiful I want to cry again
the entire ending like scene had me in tears

Thank you for the kind words!
Lord Melodies, thou'st tunes provide all realms the appropriate sustenance needed upon thine completion of such a tale. You have my thanks, my lord.
lmao

37:15 This track is absolutely my favorite of all the piano tracks I think
I forgot I subbed to you for Endwalker OST, and now I'm in love all over again. Great work.
Final Fantasy really remind me of the farewell scene before going to the final battle. I'm touched, again! Thanks
IM crying, this game was a 10/10 even with its flaws.
This is by far the best and I think also the first full FFXVI compilation soundtrack done from a fan and I take my hat off to you. If it wasn’t for these long form song videos from Final Fantasy I don’t know if I could crank out my 100 cases at work so easily. They help me focus so much.
27:06 Twilight is so relaxing
I can't believe how fast you turned this out, and it's so beautiful! I can't wait for it to hit Spotify. It'll be a top replay for me!
Listened to this in work almost every day for about a year. Brilliant work, should be really proud of yourself! 🙏
One of the reason why we all hook into this game. The soundtrack, hit your heart directly.
Amazing work!!! I listened to the whole album at the gym today, of all places, and was floored by your phrasing and tone. Congrats!
I've been really enjoying your covers as well. Can't wait to hear all of them
Founder's Footsteps #1 for me! Always my main BGM.
Loud and proud, FFXVI is my game of the decade!
Benedikta's theme is so incredibly beautiful
It’s incredibly underrated in my opinion. Her entire story is so sad.
Final Fantasy music is really beautiful always hit my heart deeply 💘🎼🎹🎵🎶❤
FF musics are everytime insane !
Consider that the game has only been released for less than a week, this came out really fast. And as always, incredible work!
My best Friday in years. I received my FFXVI collector's edition and found this playlist played on the piano. Thx so much🤍
Lovely, Dark & Deep does special things to me. Amazing.
Such beautiful playing. Knowledge of how to play a piece is much more than reading notes on the page. The interpretation of the musical feeling is what separates the good from the great. You captured this incredibly well.
This is absolutely beautiful and perfectly timed. I was listening to a bunch of FF16 ost and I needed my piano version. Thank you!
Music from FF never disappoints. Absolute masterpieces - and each OST is very synonymous with each standalone entry of the franchise. Thank you for these marvellous piano arrangements!!!
The Eikon of Melodies continues to dish out bangers
renz i know thats you
Listening to this daily while working, what a great OST
This was OUTSTANDING thank you for assembling such beautiful songs from FFXVI. ❤
You can tell how much he enjoyed it by how long the video is. Beautiful as always.
I needed this thank youuuuuuu! (knew you would make some covers for it but like DANG that was fast!)
Just realize that "Joshua and Clive" is literally a combination of "Away" and "Find the Flame"
But from all of this soundtrack Jill's offering is the saddest knowing the context of the story.
Just finished the game and now I feel satisfied but at the same time empty. Just like when you finally experienced something amazing and do not know what to do next.
Wow this version of prelude sounds so haunting I love it ❤️
It is just so beautiful! Love it.
Loving the beautiful piano in the Main Menu track.
Very beautiful. Seemingly the only place I could find "our terms" on all of youtube. which then led me to listening to the entire collection for hours on end.
Indomitable is an absolute masterpiece.
Yes, a kind of reminds me of the tune of Destati a bit which is super nostalgic.
Mike was just telling me about you--just FANTASTIC work all around and omg so fast in getting this out!!! Beautiful job!
Ahh, I'm a big fan of your work! Honestly you've been a big inspiration to me
I’m watching a gameplay of this game and some of the tracks are beautiful. I wanna hear this album and pick out favorites! Thanks for sharing. ❤
Finally found it. the ost in the side quest Priceless, Jill's Offering
I swear Indomitable is so good when the main theme gets build in at 40:47. Not enough people appreciate this song
Thanks for this. Love that intro collab with @pealeaf. Gives off chilling Ramin Djawadi/Westworld vibes. ❤
I literally hoped for this when I started playing this game! Thank you from the heart.
I dunno why but hearing Hide, Hideaway in piano sounds so much like something Nobuo Uematsu would have composed. And I think that's the highest praise I could possibly give a composition.
Looping Lovely Dark & Deep while I study Korean lol, so good. The music in this game was so great, and I love how you put it all to piano so I can keep listening to it! Thanks!
1:02 in and already loving this. Super well done.
Absolutely love your first track.
very nice, I listen to this collection every night, it gives me chill.
Amazing. I love the FFXVI ost. It is criminally underrated.
it won best soundtrack at the game awards lol I don't think anyone's underrating it. Everyone, FF fans and otherwise, admit that Soken is the goat and his music is next level
Joshua & Clive 44:05 hit my manly tears spot. Open your damn eye Joshua!
That Main Menu/Prelude cover goes *so hard*. All hail our lord and savior Masayoshi Soken for this incredible OST.
Thank you. Simply beautiful
Thanks for this! I hope someone will put out a collection of all the juke box soundtracks soon :)
Can't wait to learn Twilight on piano. 😊
My favs:
3 - Joshua’s Theme
9 - Clive’s Awakening
15 - Twilight
17 - Jill’s Offering
Great job on this one , loved the music in this game when I played it
oh man, I was hoping you'd make this! Thanks chewie!!
man thank you for posting this, this gives me FF 14 vibes also
Tremendous and beautiful job!
21:00 The Founder's Footsteps is my favorite song to have playing in the Hideaway.
Ahh, The feels... Thank you for sharing this Chewie!~
This is beauitiful. You play with feels. I get those and love it a lot
This soundtrack collection used to include ambition track too. Apparently, it is deleted and I couldn't find it anywhere else on youtube.
Thank you so much for this 💙
You did it again! I love your arrangements so much. This is so damn beautifully good.
The hideaway ‘our terms’ theme is definitely based on the amourot theme from FF14, when I heard it for the first time on the game I was like Oh my goddddd…

This is amazing, loved Final Fantasy XVI OST.
What's cool about the music is that feels very mmo-like.
Listened to half of this thinking it was an official release. Spectacular job!
Best game ost ive heard in a long time.
Forevermore is my favorite OST from the game. That moment when Clive and Jill return to Rosaria is just perfect.
I know right? I remember hearing it on the stage of play last year and I said to mysefl "I have to buy this game lol"
I love the new feature to just repeat a certain section of the OST.. also thank you for this!
39:55 - so good! Love the blend of the prelude towards the end
Recently, many J-RPG have included some sort of fishing mini-games.
Now, I absolutely want some kind of a musical mini-game that lets me play an instrument while the notes (and the sheet music) scrolls through !
Specifically, I can't wait to play "Idylls of the Empire" on my ocarina :D
the only minigame we got is how many tears we caught falling from the characters' eyes during cutscenes
Amazing game, amzing soundtrack, amazing piano cover album... Thank you ❤
indomitable started out as one of the least stand out tracks and ended being one of my favorites. insane progression within one song
This is beautiful. Thank you
my new projects!!! Can't wait to play them on piano! 😬
Beautiful as always, Chewie ryndiaComfy chewieMmm
I'm loving this game so much, definitely lived up to the hype, personally
And the music is soooo good!
Really happy you did a piano cover collection for it
Tellement magnifique!! Merci ❤❤❤
Beautiful Game as well as Covers, Listening to this Made me want to Play through the game again. ahahaha Great Job :)
It’s really calming
Jill’s Offering ost makes me feel a type of way…it got the same vibe that the Catwoman theme in The Batman
I love the piano collections
This is a healing video. So good. Thank you for the good video.😄
Beautiful music! Always love your covers 😍
Hide, Hideaway theme is pretty chill 🙌
Beyond Platinum!
thank you for this! :)
