well okay, I mean I really thought for certain Sealed Vessel would be stronger than Greenpath, and it seemed* like Hollow Knight in general would be stronger this year than last time, so I genuinely thought SV was the favourite for this division, and I had extremely limited hope in a "compromised" version of a vocaloid song (with not enough vocaloid to appeal to fans, and too much association with vocaloid and generally niche song appeal to appeal to anybody else) garnering wide support in its match, so I really didn't see a result like this coming. When I checked bracket supports too, they were evenly split at 12 brackets each, and while that did lift my spirits about it not getting like, totally blown out, I thought for sure that IroniA would still be too niche to appeal to really any of the wider voter base and was convinced that it would be at best on the receiving end of a result like this (truthfully, I was more guessing a score like 22 to somewhere in the 40 to 50 range). So um, yeah, I really am sorry for whining about this match in advance. I like Hollow Knight's soundtrack too as well as the songs selected this time, and didn't mean to punch down on its own limited chances like I did. * ... Copied to Clipboard!

Sealed Vessel never struck me as a song likely to have strength in VGMC. I think the game in general is probably weak, but the songs I'd be more hopeful for are the atmospheric area themes like Greenpath/City of Tears/Queen's Gardens or the more immediately active boss songs like Mantis Lords/Hornet. --- I didn't do guru this year but azuarc can be in my sig anyways. ...

Not that I dislike IroniA, but I nominated Sealed Vessel and it was the second song locked. I didn't expect it to get run over like that, but I certainly conceded it was in a very loseable match. --- Only the exceptions can be exceptional. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I thought Sealed Vessel was the HK song most likely to gain widespread support, but hopefully I'm wrong about that. I would be thrilled if White Palace in particular caught on, but I'm keeping my expectations low after this blowout >_> Other potential HKs: Truth, Beauty and Hatred- love this, but it might come across as too goofy for those who don't know the context and think it's supposed to be a straight epic piece. Mantis Lords/Sisters of Battle- great but maybe too simple? Looking at how Avarice did, I doubt it'd do too well. Hornet- similar to Mantis in prospects, I don't like it as much but it might do better. Nightmare King Grimm- a simple 'cool' boss theme, maybe that'd have broader support than SV's tragic motif. Radiance- it's a cool boss track, what else to say. Kingdom's Edge- a pet fav of mine along with Palace. Maybe not enough going on to draw attention, but I love the mood. Queen's Gardens- I'm not big on this one but it's the most Greenpath-like and that one got a win so maybe it'd do alright. Resting Grounds- is sadpiano.mp3 still a popular thing? Pure Vessel- OK if SV got blown out there's no way this quieter version would do better but I like it >_> Enter Hallownest- The opposite, a more to-the-point and less tragic take on SV but probs too unresolved if that's the word. Crystal Peak- might do well with the minimalist crowd Soul Sanctum- a song of two halves, people might not like both. If none of the tracks this year gain traction I probs won't bother trying HK again, it pains me to see Sealed Vessel do so poorly lol. But ah well, hopefully someone heard it for the first time and enjoyed it at least. --- Very slowly becoming a Final Fantasy aficionado. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I wouldn't mind seeing more music from that game. Poor Konran Shoujo Soflan-chan. It did not deserve that kind of blowout. In VGMC 14 it only got doubled (opponent was Hopes and Dreams). Does that mean this is the year for Endless Desert?! Time will tell. Aaaaaand, there goes my #1 vgm in the division. Aaaaaaand, I was secretly rooting for Treasure Town to win, despite voting otherwise. =p :[ Thankfully, abstaining on the match wouldn't have made a difference. --- "Ah, a party!
