. Welcome to today's topic for Video Game Music Contest 13, a tournament of the best tracks from games, as decided upon by you, the voters. Links: Bracket - http://www.bracketmaker.com/tlist.cfm?tid=471679 Contest info - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17rEeB1_oYWgryWzIxOaZXw2a381gKGnMegjHCG_2OTQ Discussion and results thread - https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/77672812 Bracket playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLW9O9mntH1RF28glW72G6s_5M1e4kcSxR . Rules: - Listen to both of the songs. Links have conveniently been provided for both songs. Even if Song A is your favorite of all-time and Song B is from a series you hate... Listen. To. Both. (If I have suspicions your vote is not based on a fair and impartial preference, it will be disqualified.) . Today's match: Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna ~ The Golden Country - Battle!! Ar Nosurge - Class::EXSPHERE_NOSURGE; . IMPORTANT FOR ALL NEW VOTERS! If this is your first vote in the contest, please copy/paste the following into your post or your vote will not be counted: I certify that I have read the rules, listened to both songs, and am making my decision based on the quality of the songs present. (Sorry, we have to do these things in the final rounds, after the way the year with Megalovania ended.) . Easy vote form: Battle!! / Class::EXSPHERE_NOSURGE; . Song lyric trivia: In your darkest dreams see to believe. Our destiny is time, and endlessly we'll all be free tonight. And on the wings of a dream, so far beyond reality, all alone in desperation, now the time has gone. Lost inside you'll never find. Lost within my own mind. Day after day this misery must go on. So far awaaay we wait for the daayeeayyy, for the lives all so wasted and gone. We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days....we carry on. --- Video Game Music Contest 12 winner: Ys 8 - Sunshine Coastline ... Copied to Clipboard!

Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna ~ The Golden Country - Battle!!
Hype gone away in like a 90% after yesterday's fiasco, but moving on... Match-up analysis: So we have two "villains" here. (For me, a "villain" is a song that's regarded as better than what I think it deserves; in other words, plain overratedness.) Every villain has to be taken down, but what happens when you have a match like this? Well, we recur to the lesser of the two evils, of course! In pretty much every aspect, Battle!! feels like the little "hero" here (including the happier and lighter tone it has going), but EXSPHERE is just an unsurmountable colossus; a giant monster that can no longer be stopped. The powerful hero that could give this one other song a fight (New World Order) was taken down yesterday in a really sad manner (well... actually any manner was going to be sad for it at that point). If (...Oh wait, I just realized something. New World Order did really have a Shadow-of-the-Colossus run after all! That's so freaking sad... It could've been this contest's Majora's Mask, but oh well...) Note: As far as the actual songs go, I thought Battle!! was both messy and ordered at the same time: "messy" as in the style it has with all of the different instruments, yet "ordered" in the sense that it doesn't really go the "watson route" of adding unnecessary and bad improvisations. It kind of wants to do that at 3:10 onwards, but it has an actual structure that you can perceive, and that's what makes it good and maintaining that "order" I'm talking about, since it never decreases the speed of the actual song at all, and that's good. What I was trying to say, though, is that it took me until this day to realize that this particular song had 2 parts: the first section which lasts 3 minutes and a sort of looped version just after the improvised-sounding-but-actually-not part that comes just afterwards, until it finally ends. I hadn't noticed about this until now, mainly for how complex the song is (but also because I wasn't a fan of it). Overall, it's kind of sad that we have a song so... "okay" with the name "Xenoblade" at this point of the competition. I'm Not "Torna" 'Bout Anything This Time Around >>> Villain That Must But Cannot Be Stopped --- It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. ... Copied to Clipboard!
