I totally recomend cheeking out a video of the Ludwig boss fight because The visuals and especially the mid boss cutscene really add to the whole feel of the Song. And The boss fight is also incredible.
@@SolitarySaturnGreat video! I really think you should check out Slave knight Gael, from Dark souls 3. The same people who made Bloodborne. You won’t regret it
Your next listen should be Bloodborne - Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower She's the one in the promotional art of the DLC sitting in the chair that is in the background of both your bloodborne videos
UUUUGGGGGHHH god I love this song so much. There’s a super cool thing they do in this song where the phase 2 segment is in 3/4 time signature and phase 1 is a 4/4 BUT in phase one the choir and bass rhythms go by counts of three with that really pregnant rest on the fourth beat (“do-mi-ne , San-gui-ne ” etc) which primes the ear for the 3-beat bars in the upcoming phase.
Fun fact ludwig is categorized as a beast type enemy in his first phase as seen with weapons designed to kill beast doing bonus damage, but in his second phase where he regains his humanity he is no longer a beast and the bonus damage no longer applies. It also showed how deep his connection to his moonlight sword really was that even when he was so deep into his beasthood he still regained his humanity by just looking at it.
I’ve been playing video games for 30-some years, and this is my most favorite song, ever. I get frissons every time. And yeah, phase 2 is the best part. I will absolutely blast this at full volume when it comes up on my playlist.
For context (without spoiling) That second phase of the song that you liked is the part when Ludwig actually unveils the Holy Blade and starts swinging it to you, this is why the music somehow imitates the swinging of the sword (but that is my interpretation, that boss fight is amazing). The recommendation that I say is a must is The First Hunter, which is the final boss fight.
One small tip. For future FromSoftware ost reactions I wouldn’t recommend that you listen the tracks in Shirrako’s channel since those videos are edited in a really weird way. Most of the time repiting phases and cutting them midway through Love the video, for future reactions I would highly recommended: Living Failures. Gherman, The First Hunter. The Hunter. And if you want to change OST with other Souls titles, Dark Souls 3 has some other amazing tracks like: Twin Princes Main Menu Theme Vordt of the Boreal Valley. Abyss Watcher.
^Absolutely This!! I highly recommend the official versions posted by SIE Sound Team, since they have much cleaner transitions, they don't loop, and they just sound better imo. I'd also like to throw in Ebrietas, Daughter of the Cosmos from Bloodborne as a recommendation. Loved the Video!
Need more Bloodborne ost reaction because they all soundtracks are masterpieces in Bloodborne you have to react the lady Maria, living failure, ebrietas,cleric beast, orphan of kos, gehrman and more and more, because Bloodborne is a real masterpiece
I can recommend The Cleric Beast one of the first bosses from bloodborne but i also recommend to listen to the soundtrack only with the Screams from the boss otherwise it will sound incomplete
I would love to see you try and play this game, Bloodborne as a first Souls game would be insane but I think its worth it albeit it may disuade you from the rest of the other souls games cus Bloodborne is peak.
My perosnal top 3 track would be as it follows:1. Gehrman, the first hunter, after it probably ludwig, or the night unswirls (main theme song) and rock solid 3. palce is hail the nightmare, wich one i also highly reccommend...that musicial piece puts existencial horror in to every drop of blood in myveins... as it should, given the palace it plays circumstances n the game
It can be hard to hear but the (likely soprano) choir part especially in The Holy Blade goes about as high as you will hear in a piece of music. At least until its more of screeching than singing.
If you want more Bloodborne I recommend Living Failures and Gehrman The First Hunter.
I have heard musicians refer to this track as a "waltz of death"
I totally recomend cheeking out a video of the Ludwig boss fight because The visuals and especially the mid boss cutscene really add to the whole feel of the Song. And The boss fight is also incredible.
I think I want to avoid gameplay videos in case I decide to play someday.
@@SolitarySaturnGreat video! I really think you should check out Slave knight Gael, from Dark souls 3. The same people who made Bloodborne. You won’t regret it

I highly recommend Dark Souls 3 *Menu Theme* its insane and its only THE MENU THEME
seconding this.
hope he sees this. its my fav video game music piece and darksouls 3 has many other banger songs as well

Now imagine playing the game and hearing this
Peak expierience
Moooorrreeee FromSoftware!!!
from-software’s quality in music is unheard 😮
I REALLY hope you react to more Bloodborne! But also Dark souls 3 sountracks aswell! Especially the 'Deacons of the deep' Theme
One small tip. For future FromSoftware ost reactions I wouldn’t recommend that you listen the tracks in Shirrako’s channel since those videos are edited in a really weird way. Most of the time repiting phases and cutting them midway through
Love the video, for future reactions I would highly recommended:
Living Failures.
Gherman, The First Hunter.
The Hunter.
And if you want to change OST with other Souls titles, Dark Souls 3 has some other amazing tracks like:
Twin Princes
Main Menu Theme
Vordt of the Boreal Valley.
Abyss Watcher.

yes ludwig is a boss, the first boss of the old hunters dlc. one of the best bosses in the game easily
Need more Bloodborne ost reaction because they all soundtracks are masterpieces in Bloodborne you have to react the lady Maria, living failure, ebrietas,cleric beast, orphan of kos, gehrman and more and more, because Bloodborne is a real masterpiece
Ahh man bloodborne OST is amazing, I say you should check out living failures next as others have said
I can recommend The Cleric Beast one of the first bosses from bloodborne but i also recommend to listen to the soundtrack only with the Screams from the boss otherwise it will sound incomplete
Ofcourse the one reborn ❤
Orphan of kos synthwave
Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower is objectively the best Bloodborne track. I recommend you check it out next
You should listen to the official track uploads and not these shitty reuploads by people, they don't loop nor transition to the 2nd phase as intended
I would love to see you try and play this game, Bloodborne as a first Souls game would be insane but I think its worth it albeit it may disuade you from the rest of the other souls games cus Bloodborne is peak.
I reccommend Bury The Light Next. Different franchise, but its worth it!
I've got you. th-cam.com/video/X_uytYImCO8/w-d-xo.html
YESSIRRRRR
love u reaccion

Please do gehrman the first hunter
I highly recommend you listen to SLAVE KNIGHT GAEL FROM DARK SOULS 3 OST!! Its epic
I recommend listening to Living failures 😂 it's a Bloodborne track.
Yo you also need to check out the Soundtrack from Dark Souls 3. That shit slaps too. Like the Main Theme and Slave Knight Gael
It can be hard to hear but the (likely soprano) choir part especially in The Holy Blade goes about as high as you will hear in a piece of music. At least until its more of screeching than singing.
