According to my research, so far Tokyo is one of the very few cities that resembles Glass at certain point, from streets' architecture to technology, the variety of lights at night and density on environment. I can perfectly picture myself at the top of a big building little far from downtown contemplating the view as the sun rises.
Glass (from the original game at least) was directly modelled after Tokyo. The games concept artists spent considerable time gathering reference photos on location Akihabara, Shinjuku etc... Check some of the "making of" content on YT.
A lot of reviewers' decisions are based on hype and hate around the game. Seasoned veterans do so, because they don't have enough time to think about their opinions properly. This is why you should compare games, and why you shouldn't always believe online reviews.
Regatta Bay was the most beautiful place in videogames I've ever seen. Great lounge space, skyscrapers and luxury yachts! I still cannot forget that view.
Many people disliked the game because it strayed from the first. But personally, I enjoyed it, all of it. Amazing experience, especially when it ramps the action to 10 in a split second.
Generic Enemy didn’t really like the whole black November terrorist plot. And Dogen was just a bit much, didn’t really understand what they were trying to do with him. I felt like if they focused more on faith and the runners the story would’ve been much.
Generic Enemy NPC Same, I’ve played the original thinking that Catalyst was a sequel, but I was astonished by the reboot and totally acknowledged and perished the new characters, storyline and atmosphere. They’ve all improved dramatically
Played this on my TV screen instead of my regular monitor. Put into fullscreen mode. Saw those four black lines in the top left corner and lost my sh*t for about 10 seconds until I figured out it wasn't a crack on the screen.
I've been looking everywhere for this mix! After you beat the game, this track doesn't play in the area anymore. I was so desperate that I played through the game again just to hear it again.
There's a mod which you can put on the game and make it play the Act 2 songs from all the areas. Look up for "nexus mod mirrors edge catalyst act 2 music".
Honestly i head the xbox one and skull candy head phones plug into my remote. Every level and side missions was incredible music with parkour to me ! Both Mirrors edge games have a permanent place in my heart. Though i may bot have a console now I always revisit the soundtrack
Such a beautiful mix, I remember playing the game and stopping when this track came on to look around at the glass buildings. I sometimes play this mix when in my local city, watching the world go by through the window of my favourite coffee shop. Thanks for posting.
There is something about this game that is unexplainably gorgeous. The second you see the title appear above an early morning City of Glass, when that music plays, it is indescribable. I will forever love this game, the city and the music. The Shard is something I cant stop staring at.
Out of all the music parts of the view, this will always be my favorite. The others are good but this one... I am at piece. Especially at night.. When the music plays when your sights are just right(the billboard)(the regatta safe house/ side) your eyes'll sing.
wow im not glad im the only one who thought the atmosphere of the city in this game with this music was something else, always kept thinking about how i wanted to live there lmao
The mirrors edge games really do have such a great feel & atmosphere to them.
A E S T H E T I C
Agreed and the music just fuxes it together, just pure eargasm!
Fiddlestickz1, Uhh TMI, TMI.
Coudnt agree more!!😍😍😍😍
Yup, very much like the Los Angeles of the Blade Runner movies, the city of Glass is a dystopia, but you can't help but find beauty in it.
This makes me want to go to a city and just sit on a roof of a high rise or something.

Too bad reviewers don't give points to atmosphere and soundtrack... It would be a straight 10/10 for this.

Yeah... that’s why they don’t do that
@PSPKriz What do you think about the first Mirror's Edge game?
@PSPKriz I agree with your opinion 100% man, I couldn't have worded how I feel about catalyst better myself!

Catalyst is fucking amazing... one of my fav games ever
@@RuruFIN Broooo! Me too 😊
To this day I listen to Catalyst's soundtrack on a weekly basis. It's so amazing and rekindles many fond memories. Thank you, Solar Fields.

Ocean Pier at dawn with this music was one of the most beautiful moments in gaming I've ever experienced. I just wanted to live there!
I wish I could play this game for the first time again. I only just completed it for the first time last month 🤣
My wife walked down the aisle during our wedding to the part that starts around 1:37, we had around 15 seconds before it build up to her walking.
You legit got married with The View soundtrack played on the back? That's hilarious and awesome at the same time. LOL
Well done 👍🏻 my friend
damn that actually works when I picture it in my head
congrats for having a wonderful wife appreciating this music
wooow wtf is this real?

Just played MEC a while ago after beating it.
The track still plays, whatcha mean?

@@thedarkestlotus the mods in this game are pretty cool, most are just small tweaks but they can really improve your playing experience

A bright future that we'll never see.
I hope we see in the near future.
I could listen to this for the rest of my life... so fucking comfortable

If only a city existed like Glass.

Finally found a new song to listen to while studying.
It isn't easy finding these good remixes.
Thank you
go on my account and research the playlist work
Dude for real !!!
Out of all the music parts of the view, this will always be my favorite. The others are good but this one... I am at piece. Especially at night.. When the music plays when your sights are just right(the billboard)(the regatta safe house/ side) your eyes'll sing.
I wish they made a physical soundtrack to the game, I would so buy it!
@@timbelcijan9858 what's wrong with physical? i'd buy this on vinyl
This music remind me snowing day and when its about Christmas.
Now, the Remaster is real!!
This game and soundtrack have encouraged me spiritually to pursue Christ
Me too :)
will always love this one ..so nostalgic and reminds me of some good times while i was listening to it
This is soo beautiful that it somehow reminds me of all the good times I had with my GF :’(
Elyad G. Bro I’m not alone holy shit
oof
Omg, those synthesizers sound soo beautiful 😍
ohhh... man I was looking for this pure version of masterpiece . thank you very much :)
You're awesome for looping this part. Thanks!
This is my favorite sound theme after finishing catalyst 3 times. I refuse to keep playing on after I unlocked this morning levels themes
Mirror's edge one love:)
So relaxing the most beautiful game ever made
wow im not glad im the only one who thought the atmosphere of the city in this game with this music was something else, always kept thinking about how i wanted to live there lmao
Amazing! Thank you for posting this!
reminds me of the days of living in lake view condos with windows opens at sunny day.
This song is so beautiful for the view! What don’t they kip this song after end game 😱😭. Want to be there!
Awesome! Thank you!
Still here in 2023 listening, cheers 🍻

All the unique people in this comment section. I hope you having a good time, legends
This song makes me levitate

Мне одному напоминает мелодию цветка из Смешариков?!
idk why, this is Asmr for me
Music is the best whisperer to my ears 😊
I wiah I could disappear to a place like this better than what we got right now....
Is there an extended version of the intro music (0:00-0:19)? because I'd love that part so much but I can't find it anywhere
I’m 11 months late but here you go :)

Do you have a version with the birds singing?
Nope sorry, you'd have to record the game audio directly if you want that
The seagulls and water fountains made this song 200X better.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

perfect for me while i play cities skylines
The console version misses the blur from the first one :(

Why would people watch 27 minute still videos like this?
Answer me this: Why are you complaining on this video when there is countless other videos like this that are 1 HOUR LONG. Why here?
