I got to this part and the one large room where you have to activate the four switches to proceed, saw the bird flying through the exit and thought to myself "Ah, judging by the size of the room and the bird showing up again, this is probably the finale of the level." Oh boy could I not have been more wrong.
@@Gardengap I think I already had at the time I made that comment, I was simply recalling my experience from a few months prior, where I managed to get all the way to the checkpoint after event horizon in a very long platforming session. If I if I hadn't completed it by the time of writing that comment, I did beat it a few days later at most, so thanks for the vote of confidence :) I actually went ahead and got the moon berry, too. As well as the C-sides (yes, I beat Farewell before unlocking C-sides, oops) and a couple golden strawberries!
This song is so underrated compared to the rest of the ost. It's really majestic and when it plays in game as the stars and colorful background light up behind you it's magical.
I haven't finished farewell yet (so no spoilers pls) and when I saw the thing that gives you a double dash, I was really confused, since Badeline said she won't help Madeline. But then I reached a new area, this soundtrack started playing, a beautiful scenery opened before my eyes, and I was like "I wish Badeline was here to see this". And then it clicked. I am not alone, Badeline never left, she cares about Madeline and would not let her in danger. She's been with Madeline throughout the journey helping her, despite being in disagreement. That's just how I felt though, if I am wrong, I wanna find it out myself, so please don't spoil it.
Well I just completed Farewell a couple days ago, and while I loved the ending and everything else, it's kinda disappointing that this was never brought up and that it's just a gameplay feature. Would kinda make sense that Badeline was helping Madeline throughout the journey, since Badeline not only wouldn't leave her alone in danger, but is also a part of her, so she couldn't leave her even if she wanted. But as I said, I loved everything else, it was worth all the struggle and I'm overall happy with that chapter! And this song is still beautiful!
@@limonlx7182 pretty sure Badeline won’t tell Madeline about her assistance, even if she actually helped Also, with some good jumping, you can skip some (but not all) of the double dash crystals and Badeline orbs. You can just leave her hanging, so to speak. With a glitch, you can force Badeline to help you all the time, which is used in farewell individual level speedruns. farewell is a frustrating, brutal, yet fun masterpiece. thank you farewell for the amazing storytelling, and for adding 4000 deaths to my save file
Especially when you get farther into the level and slowly hear electronic noises blend themselves into the song until they completely overtake the strings and piano
I love the trope in videogames when one of the hardest levels (if not the hardest ones) has the most beautiful music. Celeste and Donkey Kong Country 2 are perfect examples.
Rephrased so it's more accessible: Basically, over time you can hear some synth sounds. Over the span of all those chapters, we have associated that instrument with Badeline, making it quite the signature instrument. It's pretty cool because it represents how Badeline eventually decides to help Madeline.
To me, this piece perfectly captures the feeling of denial. The attempt to run from one's problems; seeking an unhealthy escape from reality. Just as you get comfortable in the illusion, you're reminded of the unfortunate truth of your circumstances. This is all reflected in the buildup and unexpected transition back to the fittingly-titled "fear of the unknown" leitmotif. The emotional depth of this composition keeps me coming back long after playing the game.
I totally disagree. This song gives a big feeling of determination , as if near the end of the level. But the Farewell leitmotuf part of the song hints at it not being like it seems
@@cattooma no, it’s like… telling yourself you reached the end, and pretending everything’s all right, except that it’s not all right at all… and at 1:11 you kind of realise that it’s not all right, but you continue keeping up the appearance that it is. The song represents denial, and it fits with the fact that most people who get to this part think that the chapter’s almost over, and that could not possibly be any further from the TRUTH That’s copied from a comment I wrote here.
I passed more than one hour to end a screen, you know, the one with a moving platform with a trampoline and lots of crystal spikes... Thank you music to be that happy, else I would have got really salty. If not literal salt
now im stuck at the part after you catch the bird for the first time (determination) and im stuck on the one that has a moving block with dust on the top and trampolines on the side
Literally remembering the HELL it was playing farewell... It was worth it. You know, Celeste as a game crushes your soul, kick you in the nose and you still love it
Even if humans are Travelling at the speed of light the space is still very big and vast, thats why in chapter 9 theres still marine creatures in space, we are just entering the beginning/bottom part of space because the sea are the most bottom point of earth, we can never escape our own planet
But if you look at the kind of stone that makes the ground, walls and platforms, and see chapter 9 from the outside, you will see that this level is the moon.
I think it represents depression the way Madeline described it to Theo "It's like you're trapped at the bottom of the ocean, you can't see anything and yet it feels so claustrophobic"
At first I didn't mind this song, but as I played through this section of the level, with this song on loop the whole time, I grew to truly, genuinely hate this piece of music. Now I kinda like it though
@@bigmacaco5391 I get that. My in my personal experience though, the difficulty made me fell like I earned the experience and deserved to feel the joy, the grief, the anxiety, as I was not simply watching it from afar, but had to commit and give my best. Great game :D
@@warriorcurio I think the reason is because the song is shorter than all its peers, (except the ones meant to be the length they are,) and therefore it loops more times, and in a more predictable pattern.
Madeline: “oh boy, I sure hope I ‘fare’ ‘well’ against these challenges!” That one room with the moving springboard that you bounce a pufferfish on: KILL YOURSE-
This game has some amazing music, but this one just hits me so hard... I simply can't help but just enjoy listening to this one... I'll remember it as a companion through the part I thought was the hardest I'm the game. I still haven't been able to finish farewell, but I'll update when I do.
Guys, after a lot of trouble with life stuff I fking did it! It was a hassle and a lot of UA-cam tutorials, but I did it. I quite proud of myself, even tho it took a long ass time
Wait, who's the one person who disliked this? Seriously, i want to know. You'd have to VERY specifically seek this song out and know what it is, and then decide "nah, i dislike this." Then again, having a single dislike is kinda funny.
This song sounds like the final part of farewell I think its because it’s supposed to be (since the heart is supposed to be the end but y’know, got destroyed)
Me getting to the end of this part: “I can just go on to the next part, right?” … “…I can just go on to the next part, right?” *LARGE WALL WITH A BUNCH OF OUTLINES OF HEARTS APPEARS*
This part of farewell always confused me. Just a random change in music and overall the entire tone of the area, but no cutscenes or explanation or anything, and then it's just gone when you get through the area. I never understood the choice but I'm not complaining. Its a very nice piece of music
@@carb_rta Yeah as soon as I left that 5-puzzle room and this played and it was all easy jumps going up I thought I was about to finish the chapter, and then I got my entire total death count doubled.
This song is really calm and bittersweet. Too bad it played in the level where there's full of spikes and I needed to do more than 200 obviously pixel unperfect jump before finally pass it
I call this song "that damn leitmoteif I heard for 2-3 hours because I didn't play the b-sides nor completed Core and yet I was trying to understand mechanics on my own, no hints whatsoever"
Still, got to add that I enjoy it a lot. Gives a majestic and royal touch to what looks like a really hard level. It adds a feeling of accomplishment to the monotone activity of getting the grip of somewhat hard mechanics and applying them to the puzzles. What I do enjoy about Chapter 9 is the smart ways the devs make you use the mechanics you're learning or did learn before, mixing them and sometimes even forcing you to do them in order to progress.
When I first heard it (I'm currently doing farewell and I'm in this place) I don't know, I found it relaxing, it didn't annoy me when I died In a loop, this music and the beauty of this place made me feel spechless, thank you for this game
First time I heard this song, I thought for sure I was almost done with what Farewell had already thrown at me. Then I reached the white heart and... God damn it.
This is a really good song to listen to while crying, just breathe to the synths and it’s also a mix of energetic and calm so it’s amazing for that (I know from experience)
I think that this is meant to represent Madeline’s emotions at the time because it swaps with joy of rememberance being peace and fear of the unknown being uncertainty
Farewell gameplay: the hardest shit you've ever seen

I like that they add Badeline's textural motif progressively towards the end it's a really nice touch.

To me this song is about how it is happy to remember a life and be sad to see it gone such a mix of emotions
Upon hearing a classical piece in what is the hardest chapter in the game I immediately knew how bad things were going to get

Love it
i like how at 1:10 the song starts to sounds uneasy almost, like you kinda remember what’s going on, but a lot of it’s still unknown.
For a 4 minute track i sure heard it all the way through a lot! I wonder why that is, hm, 7000 deaths?
This reminds me when I beaten the game. As the hardest stage I have to get by to progress the story.
finally found it
This music give me two type of tears, tears of emotions because of the beauty of this track and tears of pain because of the difficulty of the level
