WERE KILLING GRANDPA WITH THIS ONE‼️‼️‼️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥
What’s Greek mythology fiction without a bit of familicde.
Ain't Chronos and Kronos two different titans ?
@@kaelbeuk1 in some myths they’re not the same but in most of the myths they’re the same being
@@Than_a_Toast Figures.
@@Than_a_Toast so what you’re saying is they can be perceived as different because of timey wimey shenanigans? 🧐
The best part is when Chronos said “IT'S TIME... TIME” and timed all over the place
The8BitDrummer loved your comment btw
Oooh I'm timing!
and now melinoe is an old woman
You jest yet it's 90% of Chrono's dialoge
@@myhairhasamindofitsownNightmarecels seething over Timepilled Timemaxxers
smug grandpa refuses to let you go pee unless you throw flowers and rocks into a boiling cauldron
dont forget you have to use his own ashes as part of that recipe
In my first victory Chronos was taunting Mel by saying that Zagreus wasn't as fortunate to escape his clutches, and it made me so angry that I just locked in
yeah really, nobody badmouths my boy and lives! 😤😤😤
Wait that's the exact dialogue I had in my first win, too 😂 We fight to uphold our brother's honor!
Same here lol, I was pissed and just massacred him
@@carmacksanderson3937 Same lol. No Old-Grandpa can imprison OUR boy!
Imagine if in the final version, we can eventually unlock Zag and play through the game with him and his equipment.
The time signatures in this are INSANE… wait…
It really takes you out of the loop, eh?
Hi Jerod!! Can't wait to see you drum over this on stream!
I cant wait either, I think it shifts between 4/4 and 6/8?
@@notyourbuisness4052 Those two are the main ones but i think some parts are also in 3/4
@@notyourbuisness4052 the clocks at the beginning (00:00) are in 3/4, the motif that gets repeated a bunch of times throughout the song, first heard right after the clocks (00:07) has two measures of 3/4, then two measures of 4/4, then a measure of 2/4. we get a short pre-verse (00:13) in 4/4 before the verse (00:17) goes into 7/4 for all of it's duration. the motif is heard again, and we get a pre-chorus in 3/4 (0:47), and then we go into the chorus, which is in 4/4 (0:54)
Grandpa really said "no, you can't pause and pee, face me NOW"
Not toilet, but my face.
@@user-ft5vi4qe3vWhat
well granddaughter says "yes, I can pause and pee, fuck you"
I was streaming the game to my friends, and before the fight started everyone was roasting the hell out of Chronos' appearance since he's so skinny compared to Hades. I was scrutinizing his sprite super hard and then realized... he was designed to have an hourglass figure. Good one, Jen Zee.
my friend said that Cronos looks a bit like Elon Musk when you leave Erebus
“Hourglass Figure” I’m cackling 💀
his hourglass figure is actually how I figured out he was Chronos the first time you meet him after beating Hecate.
I also like his more shrivelled look since he was basicaly a dismembered corpse before ressurrecting himself. Plus the obsidian skin with golden cracks like a Kintsugi was *chefs kiss*
@@GameJoltTobi”bro has a snatched waist.. this is chronos.”
What if you wanted to pause the game
But God said
"Hahaha, no. YOU do not control the flow of time. Not here."
*T I M E C A N N O T B E S T O P P E D*
Isn't he a Titan, not a God?
WHAT
"Hang on, I'ma just pause and take a sip of water real qui-"
*"No."*
"Wha- WOAHWOAHWOAHOKAYTHENICANDOITLATER!"
Ahh but you fail to realise Chronos
*presses windows button*
That I’m simply of a higher reality than you
The Price Of Silence
after beating the fight, gotta say, who the hell gave retirement home grandpa a scythe
That scythe is why they had to send a girl to kill him
Gaia if you go by the mythology
Wish it looked more like a sickle (the curved blade from lim and Oros). That’s chronos’ signature weapon
@@FunnyshovelmanHis signature weapon is actually a scythe
@@Sir_Crow basically every google search I see says it’s a sickle, that curved blade
Can we appreciate Chronos is ultimately just the rich old white grandpa stuck in the past reminiscing of the good old days who everyone in the family wants him dead for the inheritance
So a Tory.
Why'd you feel the need to put white in there, racist
He's literally black.
@@chillnagasden6190 this is kinda mischaracterising him, his ideals are surprisngly more progressive.
He believes that the fates force of destiny is cruel to mortals who get the short end of the stick and furthermore that the gods interference in mortal life is cruel and unjust.
eventhough meli wants him dead more for personal reasons, the majority of the olympian gods (other than maybe hestia) want him dead because he threatens their existence and creating a new order that benefits mortals
@@strvmpet While there's certainly a narrative theme about the gods not caring about mortals and Chronos taking advantage of that / somewhat caring about mortals insofar as they are useful to him, I wouldn't say he particularly feels for their plight.
*pauses game*
Chronos: FUCK IT WE BALL
Can’t wait for Chronos to rewind your fight or turn you into a child or something.
That or he might reset your skill tree or just hide behind goons so he can slowly regain health.
@@Frostydog-99 I think he might fuck up your controls or smth like that
@@elver2218 maybe but it just dawned on me that maybe after you die to Kronos you play thru a memory (similar to botw) of how Kronos imprisoned and took over the house of hades
Chronos has the capability to unpause the Game if You pause during the boss fight
Maybe he can even stop time midfight 👀
When the motif kicked in I literally screamed "LE MOTIF!!!"
what leitmo- OIOOOOHHHHHHHHH
"You have your father's Leitmotif or rather... my leitmotif" - Kronos probably
This song got me moving like 🕛🕧🕐🕜🕑🕝🕒🕞🕓🕟🕔🕠🕕🕡🕖🕢🕗🕣🕘🕤🕙🕥🕚🕦
It's actually quite impressive how much Chronos can say the word "Time" in his voicelines. And he accentuates it every *time* too, like the old guy is proud of his puns.
Edit: Side note, the parts at 0:53 and 2:00 are so hype, it makes me sad they are watered down during the second part of this song
You know, it kinda fit him
It's pretty impressive how many Time puns are in this game and how well they work
@@phaerlax you could say they work most of the *time*
Gotta be quick to pull one over on Grandfather Time.
on the contrary, I think the second phase makes sense for the song to be much slower in pace when you have to consider that he is pulling out all these telegraphed yet big damaging moves, you have to be more careful and less frantic
The decision to use ticking clocks in all of Tartarus is absolutely goated, the sound just gets into your head and makes you want to rush to the end
I love how the Lord Hades theme is reused in this, but unlike the final fight in Hades 1 where it's meant to be intimidating towards us the player, here it's used as intimidation towards Chronos. No traitor to The House of Hades shall go unpunished...
DEATH TO CHRONOS
Cronos took his timed ass back to 2014 and had Transistor's Darren Korb himself compose his boss theme!
And that then spilled into Oceanus for its themes as well.
Took his own voice from 2017, he sounds exactly like Pyre's narrator (which fits, considering Pyre's narrator was also a leading figure of it's tyrannic government)
I was so overjoyed when I beat his first phase today for the first time, thinking it was over. Then I got OHKO'd by a 900 HP attack
Edit : I beat him finally, after 3 tries, I'm quite glad :) Even beat him a second time in a row after that
I guess like son, like father 😂

@@MV96_Melinoë is a daughter
@@lock_checker4342 they meant Chronos is just like Hades (2 health bars)
@joaoluizkfsantos8392 ah I gotcha now LUL
Idk if its the music in the first half but this feels like an ULTRAKILL boss, specifically a prime soul. The biggest similarity is their ability to smash my face into the concrete.
It's the amen break
@@jacobsiron6929 AND the amen break!!
PREPARE THYSELF
its interesting because ultrakill based it's prime souls on hades somewhat
@@strvmpet wait it did?
You can sense the pressure of time with this one, the ticking clock makes you feel you are in the middle of an intense fight
I really felt the clock tickling me with this one
The intense fight also helps set that feeling.
it’s so distinct from the first game but definitely sounds like hades. they absolutely COOKED
Can I just say how much I love Chronos's leitmotif? Ten notes (or is it eight?) sprinkled into a bunch of songs just to show that he's always watching and that time doesn't stop. Super cool progression imo.
Supergiant is amazing at motifs, from audio to visual to narrative. Chronos' sigil being everywhere is another neat thing. And all the Time puns being delivered very seriously
where is his motif?
@@banksnakes first time right around 0:10, it's the tune that plays when you lose every time
I personally love how the repeating motif at 0:17 (at least to me, intentionally or not) feels *almost* like a reversed version of the Hades/Death theme from the first game. It's not exact for sure, but I do think the idea of the music feeling like it's rewinding is intentional because of the contour of the notes going upwards when the Hades motif was so notable for going downwards
@@phaerlaxit’s also very similar to the thing some clocks chime at the hour mark
3:51 THE SECOND FUCKING PHASE
I kinda like more the first phase if anything I'd reverse the themes of each phase
God. That second phase feels soo good. Especially with Chronos ''clock'' attack sound.
@@parasitone0814 I think its meant to be a reverse in how things go honestly, Hades' (the character) fight was meant to get more frantic and intense as it goes on, pumping you up with pressure that could make you create multiple tiny mistakes that can cascade into a failure. While Chronos' fight is meant to be more calculated and anxiety-inducing, as a single hit could wipe your run, despite all your efforts to overpower and clear through everything on your way to him
When your parent tell you to pause the game but you can’t because I don’t control time. 😞✊
Darren Korb cooking as usual
"It's a bird!"
"It's a plane!"
"No, it's... Kintsugi Man!"
It took me way too long to notice but I love that the kintsugi veins are likely from when he was last cut to pieces by the Olympians; genuinely an amazing way to incorporate that piece of mythology into his design.
@@voidspace662 Its also why he seems to be so obsessed with gold having literal bags shoot coins minted with his symbol at you, its probably what keeps him together and is a material that is unable to corroded by time
First game : Kill your dad but not exactly.
Second game : Kill your granddad but for real.
Is this Greece Mythology’s theme in a nutshell ? why are they always committing parricide? 😂
Duking it out becomes a very viable solution to arguments when you are immortal and nothing can harm you permanently.
For context, it’s following the biggest fear of fathers in Ancient Greece, which is being overthrown by your child. In Greece, you were bound to your parents (mostly your father cuz patriarchy) and you answered to them till they died. So killing them was practically one of the worst crimes you could commit, and fathers were deathly worried about it happening to them, hence why we see this reflected in the mythology. Chronos straight up ate his kids because he was paranoid they’d overthrow him.
@@blipwibble6977 to add to this, not only does this happen very often in mythology (character being told "your child will be your downfall"), but the very steps that character takes to prevent it just so happen to be the same steps that lead to the inevitability of that downfall. See the story of Oedipus: his parents hear the prophecy that he would slay his father and take his mother as his queen, so they leave him stranded on a mountain as a baby and break his foot, other people adopt him, he hears this prophecy, leaves his (unknowingly) foster parents, and goes on to fulfill the prophecy, all the while not knowing that the man he killed at the crossroads was his father, and the queen he took was his mother.
i mean, both sets of gods (titans and olympians) resulted from their respective fathers (uranus and chronos) being control freaks who wanted to maintain their own power and ending up creating the circumstances of their own destruction in trying to stop their kids from surpassing them. so, yeah, kinda
Hades 3: Uranos gets his balls back and Macaria has to fight him
YOU'RE ON MY TIME YOU LITTLE SKUNK, GIVE ME THE CRYSTALS!
I was looking for a comment about this lol its definitely n trophy lol
I literally screamed this the second time i got this encounter
"You're in MY house, you little frog! GIVE ME THE FATES!"
never thought id hear breaks in hades but here we are

Coming here after getting chronos down to an eighth of his hp, i was panicking waaay too much to appreciate this song durin- aaaand as i was typing this the song transitioned, there a second phase isnt there. this game is so good. but im also severely screwed.
Edit: i did it :)
I am cackling like a madman reading this 🤣🤣🤣
I got to Second phase first time and then got him quarter hp I had a pretty good set up but he did 999 damage to me on one attack I was guttered lol
@@notbeersies8204 yeah that attack caught me off guard the first time too
they left this in the tech test build and i was looping it obsessively for a few days ........... glad that i can talk about how fucking neat this is now
Dude, I was doing the same. This is such an awesome fight theme
Can't wait to hear the "Extreme Measures" version of this one :)
Clock sound effects and time-manipulating characters, name a more iconic duo.
chronos's time-bending powers allow him to play sick beats in an inhuman pace
I like how other worldly this theme feels
Hades' theme feels more like an overwhelmingly powerful force unlike anything youve ever faced
Like death its insurmountable
While Chronos' theme is like something you cant even begin to fully wrap youre head around
Cause can we really understand something like the passage of time
ugh that D&B backing hits so hard with the guitar
I don’t know why, but breakcore/drum and bass just makes the most sense for chronos
Makes sense. If there were vocals, they'd probably rapped rather than sung.
@@jacobkern2060 if JT teach me something,it that you can combine male rap and female singing.
TIME DIES BY OUR HANDS WITH THIS ONE 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
Nice similarity with the title for the final boss "God of the Dead" and "The Titan of Time"
Absolutely love how many time signatures are going on at once in this song
In the name of Hades, we accept this boss theme!
Time cannot be stopped so is Darren Korb
why didn’t I put together that chronos’s theme (0:08) is just a riff of the chime of a grandfather clock? hello?? grampy literally trying to usher in a new age??? darren you genius, you mad lad
Chronos during phase 1: Alright Grandaughter, I'll play with you...
Phase 2 Chronus: *Listen here you little shit*
on a more serious note, I love the complete tone shift from Phase 1 to 2. Phase 1 is playful and colorful, Phase 2 is a lot more angry and serious. Pretty clear tone narrative there. Can you imagine what we'll get for a phase 3 like God of The Dead was... *shivers*
If anyone here's played through DOOM: Eternal , it kinda reminds me of the main game's final boss theme, Final Sin, with a persistently ticking clock ambience in the background. It feels like there's a distinct time limit on this boss fight, and I LOVE it!
The longer the Titan of Time is left on the Underworld, the stronger he will become.
There's an old man in need of another lesson.
That first 9 seconds is SOOO sinister my GOD. Really grabs you and then all the time signature changes and energy makes an incredible atmosphere. Like you’re literally racing against time :0
Drum'nBass and metal, what a combination 8D
Aaaah those slowdowns like a heavy steps before time starting to play the materia again. Insane!
The first part reminds me of Impossible from Transistor - the percussion, the surprisingly major feel in a dark toned game
He's like Charon, Hecate, and Chaos all mashed together. Such a menacing final boss.
I feel like I'm returned to my childhood fighting N Tropy from Crash Bandicoot 😂
I thought the exact same, sounds exactly like a mish-mash of Hades & Crash Bandicoot
THANK GOD I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE TO THINK THAT
Both are time themed, so it makes sense they'd pull similar inspirations
Death to Chronos Prime!
real
It's really interesting to have a kinda slower track for phase 2. Most games I'd expect to kick that in the other direction. Makes sense for the Titan of Time though--something about inevitability, or doing things out of order because you don't have to obey the normal progression of things.
Also it slaps
using breakbeats as the musical foundation for a temporal deity is so good. I wanted to jolt out of my chair to cheer when I heard this the first time. the sample that has had tempo and time messed with more than any other
i never expected a hades track to have amen breaks
Guess you could say this song is a great way to "kill time"
i trust these people with my life
absolute masterpiece -- they did it again, who would've thought
Idk how else to put this, but there is strong Super Paper Mario vibes. A very specific niche of sound Darren Korb is hitting just right.
It reminds me of how the Memory tracks and Castle Bleck use ticking clock sounds, as well as the latter’s constantly changing time signature.
I think its the synth with a sort of "wah pedal" effect on it at 0:46. IIRC that game uses similar effects a decent amount.
@@jabronijackpot I had to take a moment to giggle a lot over the term “wah pedal”.
@@corrinflakes9659 I didn't know how else to describe it ok 😭
Holy shit this soundtrack.... Ig i will speedrun this game aswell
Only thing i want is the start of this extended, i love when you're talking to him and it plays underneath. Fills me with excitement and dread. Whole song is amazing.
The directional sound on the ticking, going from one ear to the other...such a small thing that adds so much in the mix of something so brilliantly complex.
3:50 “Time… to… DIE.”
the amen break hahaha fuck yes
YOU MADE YOUR OWN AMEN BREAK (I think). DUDE THAT IS AWESOME.
The intro to the second phase is splendid... Slows down like the time itself, and conveys that you're in a place you shouldn't be, as the fabric of reality around you breaks and the provoked titan is ready to cut you down in his own realm.
They really outdid themselves. What an insane song 💜
0:10 I can't be the only one to realize that the leit motif is inspired by the Westminster bell chime, right? Schools in Asian countries use it for on/off class chimes it's basically baked into my brain lol
You're not the only one :D
Is it just me or does this track sound a bit muffled? Like it's not as crisp as it should be? I dunno why
Might be not the last version as this is still not 1.0, but also the sound is different for almost all the tracks which are near Chronos' boss fight, they almost sound like "old" game music, might be connected to this I honestly don't know :)
Everytime I listen to this song, I think of how Chronos throws his scythe.
Its a small thing, but the God Of The Dead motif at 2:22 is flipped! low 4 notes then 3 higher notes
Now i know where Hades got his guitar shredding skills
This song has such a menacing aura when you're scrolling through the playlist and see this 8 minute track amidst the 2-3 minute ones and you know it's the final boss
That Ulysses 31 haunting reverb from 4min is such a superb homage and addition
I can imagine Chronos actively trolling you if you have this game’s version of Tight Deadline. Such as if you have more than two minutes by the time you reach him he decides to speed it up. And he actively taunts you if you’re getting low on time.
So at 2:20 the death theme from the first hades plays (death and I iirc), and I'm positive it's because chronos stole all of hades' stuff (house, throne, family ect). This game is a masterpiece and it's not even done yet
Never before have I heard a Take this bad. Kiddo, The game îs not a masterpiece, this word has lost its meaning. The game is very repetitive and bland. Very few enemies. Bland bossess, The boos are very bad atm since everyone just goes for aphrodite attack or special and zeus cast. And The game is just "beat the final boss over and over again to unlock 3 more lines of dialogue". How îs this a masterpiece. What a bad take.
Also a lietmotif îs The easiest thing to do. Make a jibgkensound, then repeat it. Wow what a masterpiece
@@mihaimercenarul7467 tell that to the rest of the internet bozo

Litterally every God has good boons. The fact you are the *only* person I have seen be negative about this game in any way almost makes me think you're not a real person
3:55 Three....Two....One....

Chronos trying not to make a time pun: impossible challenge
This snaps!
Been listening to this a lot and this is my current favorite OST and I just now realized why that is-- this, especially the first phase, sounds so much like a Legendary Pokémon's battle theme. Coming from a seriously very avid Pokémon fan, realizing that this OST reminds me of a lot of various Legendary Pokémon themes made perfect sense why I like this so much ❤️🤍
As a fellow pokemon fan, I'm curious which ones come to mind for you cos I can't think of a theme it resembles, but that's probs cos I'm stoopid😶
@@kag2576 Guiltily, too many come to mind 😅 maybe the general scheme of legendary themes really just got me reminded of em. But the ones that come to mind off the top of my head are: Dialga/Palkia, Giratina, Xerneas/Yveltal, Solgaleo/Lunala, DM/DW Necrozma-- just the general vibes of those ones. Futhermore, I can also say it reminds me of some of the more recent rival themes and evil team themes (i.e., Lysandre and maybe Gladion?)
But deffo the Legendary themes especially the Gen 4 ones, I think. But this is mostly only on the first phase hahahah
And now we resume, to the battle we were already having.
Darren Korb my beloved
how many runs did it take you guys to beat him (i haven't)
here to spread the gospel of the very underrated 7:01
It’s incredible- this track wouldn’t be out of place in ULTRAKILL
The drum and bass grandfather everybody
The beat drop in this track sounds SO MUCH like the beat drop in Castle Crasher’s Necromancer theme
Darren never misses I swear
The track is in C# minor key, which could be a reference to Chronos being the youngest of Gaia's titans.
Darren Korb is a genius.
Can't imagine what extreme measures for this would sound like
What a banger omg
I'm not an expert on music but it sounds like theres a classical chord progression at 0:53. If that is the case it would just another thing make Chronos's theme sound grand and old fashioned.
Absolutely love those flams in the second song. When you hear that, you know shit just got real!
Got to say:
If not for this theme i would had quit the game after the sixth attempt at this boss.
The chronos himself also Has a banger fight.
I LOVE YOU DARREN KORB
