Umineko no Naku Koro ni - System 0
League of Legends - Get Jinxed
Katamari Forever - Galactic S-O-U-L

MATCH 1

It's kinda funny to think that for one of the few Star Trek quotes that I know, System 0 is the only reason I know it. This song's a great example of that dark gothic sound that's plentiful in Umineko's soundtrack with the harpsichord melody. That's one of many things that I'm a fan of when it comes to this game's soundtrack. If I'm not mistaken, quite a few songs in this game from -45 do this kind of stuff. I don't really remember what else that composer's done for the game besides Yomitsu Hirasaka Corruption. That organ after the intro hypes the song up so much too. The choir in this song is really great as well, especially towards the end of the song when it's just the piano playing underneath.

Like Mycro said, Illburns Ruins has this 80's/90's feel to it, but to me, this is a bit of a cheesy 80's/90's style that feels a little too stereotypical in its approach. That's not necessarily a bad thing, and in this case, it really isn't, but it doesn't get a whole lot of points for that, I suppose. Definitely not a bad song, but not quite my preferred style of Ys music.

MATCH 2

lalalalablablablabla. I've replayed that intro too many times now because of that haha. I kept staying in this limbo state of trying to figure out if I actually like this song for a while because of those vocals, but that chorus with the synth chords at 0:40 really drew me in. I really enjoyed that part. The rest of the song was pretty cool too once I got used to the vocals. It's definitely a stylistic flair that fits well for the song that I can appreciate, even if I prefer just regular singing.

Craggy Coast is one of those songs that's really nostalgic and reminiscent of my days of playing PMD games, but, unfortunately, not because I think it's a really good song. It's definitely not bad, but this is more like background music for me than something where I sit there and go "yeah, I like this!" 2:03-2:07 and 2:12-2:16 is really nice, though. Those parts definitely stuck out to me in this song.

MATCH 3

Man that album cover for G-Darius is really cool. I don't know what it is about it, but I like it. Sadly, I can't say the same about H.G. Virus! I'm just not really a fan of these sharp, erratic chord changes. I can understand how this might be appealing to some, but this isn't really my thing.

Galactic S-O-U-L is also not all that interesting to me. It wasn't bad to leave it on as background music for 7 minutes while I went and did other things, but it's not the kind of music that's super appealing to me. It kinda feels like the type of song that I might find while scrolling through radio stations where I listen to it for a few seconds and then move on because I'd rather hear something else. I wouldn't call this song bad, though.

This set of writeups is looking a bit negative so sorry about that :(
