The Journey soundtrack is a go to for me for games when I want exploring to feel more relaxed

when you explained your personality and side things, your literally me smh

im roasting you as you asked cause that elden ring ost is a fuckin banger (DLC final boss and shaman village ost my beloved), I'm a lil bit of a purist cause nothing hits like those goosebumps of an ost switch for the first time, but I'm a little more open to stuff like this on replays or treads of areas I've been in already for a grind or whatever. but overall I like this video! love how you threw in the little bits to keep some of that immersion even when you switch osts and thanks for the lists of songs I can rip from for my next video 🤫

If you are craving a different vibe you can just a play another game for a few days then comeback and go back and forth

Remember Guys, in 2024 we got Animal Well

Last game I have finished is Horizon Zero Dawn. And I knew there was the second game. Finished mass effect 1 and 2, not 3. Played cyberpunk for hours, modded, had a real life tattoo of the game on my forearm. And still, I do not know the ending

I think I'll use a curated version of Cyberpunks soundtrack for my next ER run.

What is pokemon belong to?

Dude literally showed the games I didn't finished on the first seconds and I feel attacked 😅

In Deep Rock Galactic I've installed some mods that replace swarm music tracks with the fighting themes from Doom 2016, It matched perfectly my mood 😊

I member playing an MMO called Atlantica Online. The entire OST was just taking a random song from a folder in .ogg format, so I swapped in my favorite RPG soundtracks. The game wasn't THAT fun but that kept me playing for 1-2 weeks longer than I would have otherwise!

It’s funny that you show Dragon’s Dogma, I ended up playing music in the background for DD2 because it felt like it hardly had any of its own.

what could be a tie breaker if two options have the same score?

Neat idea, but I don't need it to know I'm playing Monster Hunter Wilds on day one because I've been obsessed with the series almost non stop for over a year and a half lol. Also, you should go back and play Armored Core 6 at some point. Space Marine 2 is fun, but Armored Core 6 is a masterpiece.

Great video!

I've been doing this for long but I don't do it often as I usually enjoy the intended vibe and if it doesn't vibe with me and I don't feel like changing the music I feel it's best to just change the game entirely. However, when I do want to change the music I've come with the issue that, if it's an rpg for instance, I don't want battle themes to be playing all the time, such as exploring, but I want different battle themes playing when there is combat and just switching playlists can quickly turn into a hassle

I stopped playing Sekiro because I got a puppy. A year later, I have time to game again but Sekiro is such a hard game that I am not looking forward to returning to the hardest part of the game (I have a few bosses left) when I forgot basic controls. The game got fun after I learned the rythm and parry timing but climbing the lurning curve again at the end of the game seems tedios even though I do want to finish it eventually

I basically always end up playing my own music when playing video games, and it's always music that's chill. Like I get too tired of battle music for example, and why do I need it when planning my moves in a turn based game? I just loop chill tracks from the same game, or just search say "ambient viking music" when playing The Banner Saga. It would be gold to be able to turn on the music in the game whilst turning off the music on UA-cam with one button, because now I just end up using the UA-cam music where sometimes I would enjoy hearing the in-game music. If someone has a solution for this I would be grateful. 😊

I didn't care for the NFS HEAT's soundtrack initially, then I changed it to 1990s-era Hard-Techno Rave, and the overall enjoyment TRIPLED. Highly recommend.

Been doing this for years! but didn't even think to turn down just the music in the game settings, lol. There are a lot of video game soundtrack composers on spotify, like Sarah Schachner, Jesper Kyd, and Brian Tyler... plus many more

Anything over the DQXI soundtrack :D

This Channel is just gold, elden ring while listening to lofi is a gaming experience I never thought I would have

What I love most about this channel is that it approaches games the way dylan talks games does, so I am already familiar with the way you think about games, and I am used to watching long videos as long as I love the topic (I watched the latest Dylan vid in one seating even though it was 50mins long) so this channel fits my taste perfectly

one I would regularly change up for music, would be Elite dangerous, but play FTL music in the background. The vibe fits perfectly.

From what I have seen, most moden video games have been streamlined. Dumbed down, there are more games, yet fewer games that really stands out. Than you got the forever ip that kinds of have becomes stable cash grabs from studios. some have made their forever ip into their main cash cows. EA have their sports games, that looks the same for at least a decade now. Back in the day there was game makers that where the trend setters, now it is just fallowing trends. That game studios what to make everything into a live service. Normally it is one game that sets a trend, than everyone whats to make money from that same thing, making that type of game over done to death. That back in the day things like pre orders ment something, that was to make sure you got a copy of the game on the day it came to market, because game shops had a limited stock. Now it is digital and there is no limit on the copies, but to get people to feel stressed out and pre order, they give out this pre order perks, using the fear of missing out. Microtransactions everywhere. Or you see a base game and it gets full price DLC untill the end of time. When it comes to flops. 2024 had a ton of flops, but DAV was a big one, sushi squad, concord, that game where a common housefly has a longer lifespawn. Star Wars Outhouse floped. There was awesome games as well. Palworld was a good game. The First Descendant, Space Marine 2 had some awesome parts in it. That dreadnought part was awesome. This abomination is mine! Than yeets a statue at a deamon, BY THE EMPEROR I CAST YOU DOWN! Than I have played a lot of moble games, ZZZ was a good one. Like I didn't expect to play gatcha games, but yet I did.

This may be an issue on android but the Spotify links don't seem to be working; was interested an looking over the playlists if there's a reliable way to search for them, there's a surprising amount of Mark Maxwell's from my results!

I'm surprised visualizing your back log isn't a thing. It helps me get back to it. But I also don't put every single game that I own or haven't even bought.

Reasons why games should support individual music sliders! *Looks at DMC3* I've been listening to Monster Hunter Rise while playing Shujinkou which compliment each other quite well but a hack or native support for custom music like Endless Ocean are ideal. I'd definitely save it for replays, going through old material or speedrunning especially if the game is trying to lay down an atmosphere.

My girlfriend and I switched out The Forest soundtrack with the RDR2 house building song and looped it. The game turned into a cozy building game and we love it, I often forget that our soundtrack isn't official

That's a good advice. I would think that not only video game music is adequate. Maybe some ambient or lo-fi music could work too! Cheers.

so yeah this is a really good tech ive been using for years. in a lot of games where im just doin some hype shit i put on some of my favourite vgm and it enhances it a dozen fold. hint: you can also do this with manga! i have some dedicated anime tracks for some types of manga, but in some cases if you're reading ahead you can even use an already made anime's soundtrack with the manga. it's an incredible boost in enjoyment, and the fact that you're controlling the soundtrack of every moment makes it drastically more fun. like i have a playlist on my channel just called 'battle' where i included a bunch of tracks which have all the various ups and downs and peaks and buildup and suspense that any regular battle manga would which works just beautifully.

The only games that can keep me in are Resident Evil games.

I love that two minute rule. I'm going to give that a try in not only video games, but to everything i don't wanna do lol.

I wonder how well the journaling part would work with more linear games. I’m currently going through Astro Bot and while I’m not struggling keeping up on it, I also can’t really imagine what the journal entries would look like in a helpful way. “Last night I beat x level, it was fun, i liked this part etc.” sure, but then “next time I’ll play the next level” feels like it would be every time 😂

I did not complete story wise both botw and totk games but I sp[ent 80-100 hours in each. I conciously walked away from the game with great fulfillment and never felt the need to continue playing. Some games are just like that in my opinion. Yes there might be another 5% to the game to get that "finish" feeling but I really did enjoy my time and don't feel the need to go back. I think the story in both of those titles isn't compelling. In games where the story is gripping, if I start, I will finish regardless of time but I'm more of a jrpg main so that can be quite frequent.

DDR, phantasy star online, gears of war, and soul caliber where my favorite games... DDR and PSO was the ones i lost most of my time on. Trying to beat my DDR scores daily or beat other scores, then in PSO id keep playing to try and find rare items. Now I'm very very driven by daily challenges and getting the most points or collecting all items. So id say, Competitor but for myself improvement in a game, collector, and kinesics.

I consider journaling for life improvement, I never considered journaling for my gaming hobby!

Amazing advice

I always watch UA-cam videos on the game I want to play for a few days before actually starting it up. It helps me find a direction in the games from inspiration I get from seeing others.

You just explained why 40-50% of my 4347 hours of Skyrim are in the tutorial section. Science is mad

About 2 years ago, I spent a lot of time putting together a crazy mod list for Skyrim on PC. Got about halfway through a save file, and then got into other games, elden ring etc. always told myself I would get back to Skyrim but I never did until I saw this video. Your 2 minute rule worked. I loaded it up, got into the game, and within maybe 30 seconds I was like "oh jesus, here we go again" lmao

My wallet doesn't let me buy that many games. Most games that i get and i dont play are f2p ones

ahh man I can’t even bring myself to finish watching this 22 minutes video. just like I did to most of my games 😂

To me, it's less of a decline and more of an... overload. The number of releases, the flood of asset flips and the much easier access to them as compared to the shovelware you'd only see on shelves (which themselves were limited in space), the backlogs that keep growing as our favourite franchises gain more entries... Add the increasing costs of gaming, in development and marketing as well as game prices of major publishers, and mistakes just feel less and less forgivable. They should have figured out the formula/the strengths and limits of the platform/what their fans want, right? But games need to switch things up to not grow stale, systems need to evolve... It's why, every once in a while, I'll go from modern games to retro to fan games/rom hacks. Seeing different levels of quality of life, of polish, tends to make me appreciate even slightly buggy newer releases.

While I game in the evenings to relax, I didn't watch this to find out how to get back into games I haven't finished. I beat most of the games I mess around with, FO4, RDR2, GTA, and some games don't really have an end like Hell Let Loose, and I haven't found an end to Valheim yet, despite taking out all the elders (twice and decorating my home with their trophies). I watched this one for a more tangible reason, getting back into real world projects. I build old muscle cars and trucks, and staying motivated to work on them is a HUGE problem for most people. I am kinda driven to work on rusty old junk, but many people will buy an old car, take it apart and never touch it again when they discover how much work it will be. Life gets in the way at times, and other cars take priority so the one we start building languishes and takes up shop space. Lots of things can derail a project vehicle.. including video games. Its happened to me. Funny enough, the same things can be used to keep a youtube channel going. Car-tubers have the added issue of needing to work on the car as we film it, then turn it into a video someone wants to watch. Its like having two jobs. Its the same brain mechanics behind building a car as playing a video game. You have tasks you need to complete, often in a certain order for each system, but you can do the big parts almost in any order you want. What you want to tackle first is up to you when building a car. I know how I stay motivated and get back to cars I have stopped working on to do others, and I wanted to see how you do it with games. Hell Let Loose annoys the hell out of me, because you have to depend on other people doing their job in it. Getting them to do that job is the annoying thing. Not everyone is at the same skill or knowledge level, some think its like CoD where you go off lone wolf rather than stick together and make things happen. If you have a regular crew it can be a ton of fun, but with randos it can be very frustrating. That is like a car that I cannot solve the problem, or its going to be very expensive to make it right, difficult or pricey parts can stall a project car. Waiting on the machine shop to get the crank and heads done also soaks up time. One key thing we car guys do to stay motivated is force ourselves to go out to the shop/garage and do something, even if its just stare at the car and dream about it being done, but do something in that space. You can run a single wire for the fuel pump like I did yesterday, and thats good enough. Its cold out there and running the diesel heater gets spendy... Its like your Two Minute tactic, do something every day and you don't end up with a car sitting there for months to years untouched becoming a shelf. Watching videos of other people doing the same thing can motivate you to go do it again. I watch friends go racing, which they can do in Florida in winter, but I have to wait until May to go racing since I live in Michigan, way up by Canada... actually farther north than most Canadians. Watching them go race or do a drag and drive motivates me to get projects done in the cold months, so I can enjoy driving and racing them when its warm. The journal and to do list is a good thing for real world projects too, crossing off tasks feels great. I use my youtube channel for my journal, the shorts are what I did recently, like building alternator brackets or putting new tires on. I can look back and see where I was last, and I can see the progress I have made since starting to work on the 71 Ventura project back in October and November. Right now I have two videos rolling around in my head that I want to make. One is similar to this one, but for gearheads, and the other is about what is better, buy it in as nice of condition as possible, or buy something to build? I do the latter since I don't have the money for the former. The rub is I have to get stuff done on the house, shop, the car, and make the videos.. and I spend 20 minutes writing up something like this. :) Thanks for the inspiration and ideas, plans.

Loved this video. As a kid I gravitated to plants vs zombies, castle defense games, and prison tycoon; as well as GTA, Red Dead, Saints Row, Assassin's creed, and Far Cry So now that I'm playing Civ 6 I'm realizing that it's no wonder I'm drawn to it It's a great blend of the director and explorer + some story telling

step 1: sell league of legends account.

Elden Ring is my all time favorite game. About 2 days before the release of the Elden Ring dlc, my microsoft account was hacked. I spent around a month going back and forth with different agents and even got scammed. In the end, i lost 200 dollars and was never able to get my account back, which meant that every game that ive played within the last 7 years on my xbox was all gone. No more Cyberpunk, no more Dark Souls I II and III, no more Dragons Dogma 2, no more Skyrim, ect.. but worst of all no more Elden Ring. I haven't touched any of those games ever since microsoft f'd me over. I'm still a die hard Elden Ring fan, but knowing that i lost my first ever save just killed me. Im gonna try to use your advice.

OH MAN SAME WITH TOTK….exactly the same for me.

What's preventing you from getting back in, is that you played 125 hours of the shit; I like cheese, but after 125 pieces, I would really like to eat something else as well, even if the fucking wheel is still sitting on my table. EDIT: Plus, I wouldn't have been able to sleep or shit for a fucking week after 125 pieces of cheese.
