@@richanddarksbane1439 I love the Nocturne map theme at the start of the game. After leaving the subway station, I honestly just stood there on the map, listening to it. I really want to replay it now
This song is the reason I take my time with this game: whenever I have to go back and buy stuff before heading into the dungeon, I generally spend like 5 minutes vibing to this jam. Also, BEST SONG FOR NIGHT DRIVING
The ambient feeling of this impeccable. The uncertainty and mystery of the internet the early 90s experienced is felt in every aspect of Soul Hackers 1.
This game is all becoming so creepy to me and i love it im quite blown away actually this game is so underrated. It's really easing you into the madness of the world clearly something is wrong here and it surpasses human understanding
Happened to me with SMT IV theme Tokyo in 2014. In 2021 I finaly downloaded the game on pc and played it on emulator. Disliked it but playing SMT IV:Apocalypse now and having fantastic time.
@@061Hitachi if you ever go back to 4 (very worth it!), get past naraku before giving up. the beginning of the game is so rough but after that it's incredible.
I’m currently playing through all of the SMTs! I’ve finished SMT 4, 4 Apocalypse, Soul Hackers and recently Strange Journey Redux..Soul Hackers is a little bit of a trip though, stay frosty and don’t be afraid to fuse your demons for stronger ones!
This game is like a freaking Vaporwave album, but you can fight with and against demons while your partner is a gothic computer entity that stole your friend's body in a world going through a network revolution
hearing a literal mid-90s RPG be described as a "vaporwave" album is more cringe than I can handle in a single day. I think I got cringe-poisoning just from reading your comment.
@@chrysome4540 Yeah it's being worked on by TMS devs. It looks "nothing like Soul Hackers" because the devs are making a "sequel" in the sense that to them SH applied sci-fi of its era to Megaten, so now they're going to do that again but with Japan's sci-fi from this current decade/last decade since this current one is still pretty early. You don't get to say "this ISN'T Soul Hackers" because the only frame of reference the devs and Japanese have isn't under the lens of a 2012 rerelease where the 90s is considered "retro" and "nostalgic" or "lo-fi vibes." TLDR; ofc it looks nothing like Soul Hackers silly it's Soul Hackers 2! Oh yeah just to edge you into doompilling more since I can see Atsuro in your PFP, there's also Devil Survivor devs working on this. This game could also easily be a indirect showcase of what they're capable of making for consoles and Survivor 3 could very well end up being possibly similar to SH2 here lmao.
@@ils4844 tbh i'm excited for the game regardless of if i think it doesn't look like soul hackers since it at the very least looks solid both aesthetic wise and gameplay wise
@@ils4844 nah its fine dw about it i probably came off as one of those megaten fans that think "old = good, new = bad" so i understand where you were coming from
Most games from this period used romplers like Roland SC-88, JV-1080 etc. Soul Hackers for sure used the SC-88 for at least some of its sounds. IIRC The Amami Airport Vision Quest theme uses SC-88 patches "New Century" and "7th atmos". Games like Persona 1 and 2 used the SC-88 for like 90% of their OSTs.
I wanted to explore this world more but its sad that Soul Hackers 2 will likely not have any of the spirit this game has Oh well, I'll take their Persona 5.5 if that's what they're offering
Considering they were low on both time and budget, the result was pretty good. I really want to see them on a bigger project because they got talent, ngl
They got talent, because they developed in past titles like: Langrisser, Growlancer, Devil Survivor or TMS. But they are definitely more experienced and talented with SRPG's, and they should stick with that.@@Oclur
@@snifflesnop5824 It's not out yet hence nobody knows. OP is clearly just a pissed off has-been who's only basis for criticism is "I don't like what I see!" And will continue to moan until finally giving up on this franchise soon since Atlus to a lot of people hasn't been good since the turn of the 2000s into the 2010s. Why be in a parasocial relationship for that long afterwards? Nobody knows. Tbh I also don't like what I see in some cases for the game but I'm not gonna bitch and moan over it completely since I see more good than bad in quite a few areas. Bringing back megaten spinoffs is arguably something of a good thing for this completely misdirected company even if the execution is being fiddled by TMS art direction (Eiji has been off his stride ever since he's decided to lean into the art direction of that game as opposed to SJ and SMTIV which he had both directorial duties for), and social link crap.

My favorite World Map theme EVER!!!!!!!!
on the same level as Nocturne for me, but it really is great
Mine too 😅
@@richanddarksbane1439 I love the Nocturne map theme at the start of the game. After leaving the subway station, I honestly just stood there on the map, listening to it. I really want to replay it now
It's my favorite too, such a futuristic vibe
pretty much this and smt4 one,both are amazing.
至高のフィールド曲。
incredibly underrated soundtrack
Soul Hackers only got localized after vaporwave took off... Coincidence I think not!
Plausible lmao

I'll definitely put this on a night drive playlist, I really get this vibe too haha

It's also one of the easier games except for the secret bosses.
I wanna just live in this track
Probably my favorite song in all Megaten
One of the best Map themes in the series, if not, THE best! Tasaki's knack for traversal themes is insane
This track is the vibe itself manifested
Nothing can beat Soul Hackers, man..soulful, legit a wonderful game with an amazing soundtrack
never played and stumbled upon this track specifically and i can't get enough
now i must play i fucken love it
Noice

bangerrr
damn, this really is just the perfect study music
Amazing. Timeless.
Every story quest I finished I’d always walk through the whole areas and talk to the NPC’s just so I’d hear the theme longer lol
I've been looking for this for a month!
Damn.. I can not wait until I start this game!

@@SombraDelPiso how did you feel about SMT 5?
Did you ever finish the game?
@@mrman6035 he died
Catches MIDI 90s Music very well.
so this is midi? i thought it was daw produced
@@KogetsuKuzunoha yep, it's MIDI - digging into the files on the disc it's mostly FMV taking up disc space, the soundtrack is entirely MIDI.

@@MastaGambit ok
@@icaroshirobon1141 don’t listen to the haters. You’re absolutely right, we love vapor
@@fanian69 exactly :D
@jack ebola no shit
One of the best soundtracks
I still get goosebumps when I hear this song.
Anyone else here a few days before the new Soul Hackers announcement?
Yep, i'm here, i hope for a new game, even a remastered for the new console for me it's ok, no gadget and mobile game plz
Yes I'm praying for console/PC release
Yeah.
My body is ready!
I AM READY
The best smt game next to nocturn.
Very nostalgic
Came looking for this because of A Fish's Paradise. Such a jam.
pure SOUL
Can't wait to hear this again directly.....
this goes hard
awesome sauce
Tokyo their stuff right here
And now we're getting Soul Hackers 2!
bigjam!
Quartz Quadrant ACT 2 Bad Future

SOUL HACKERS 2 BABYYYY
Sounds too muffled for my tastes
Here to wash off the bad taste of weeb trash from that "sequel"
Isn’t it too early to write the sequel as bad?
Stop being overdramatic
"Man washes mouth to get rid of bad tasting weeb shit by digesting more bad tasting weeb shit"
Wait why was it bad? Want to know before I buy it. :)
