      Joshua Laporte You know the misc quest where you get a sailor's remains and put him to rest by cremating him in the lighthouse? This song just started playing as I went to the top of the lighthouse to finish the quest. So I was on top of the tower, the ocean to one side and snowy mountains along the coast and to my back with this masterpiece playing. That was probably the most immersed I've ever been in a video game.

    It's pretty rare for a videogame to reach this level of artistry. The music elevated the game to an even higher level. I was pretty late to playing this game, didn't want to jump on the bandwagon. But I eventually bought it and devoted a whole summer to the game, good memories

    • @rylansparkyschneider
      @rylansparkyschneider 9 років тому +5

      I did the same and it made it the best summer for sure. But at least to me, the music makes the game infinitely better.

      +jbarkerhill92 You should totally try Bioshock Infinite along with the Burial at Sea DLC. Although I heard the first Bioshock was a tad better, Infinite was overall very good and Burial at Sea made me want to play the first Bioshock for closure. :)

    As a French horn player, I will say that the opening melody is NOT easy to play. The top note is very close to the instrument's upper limit. It's hard not to sound awful when playing that high or even play that high at all.

    Let's give some credit to the London Philharmonic too. Their arrangement of this song was spot on. The brief quiet moment with the piano was a nice pause and change of pace, but still felt like it belonged in the original track. Excellent, excellent piece. Showed to multiple people and got positive responses all around, and none of them are Skyrim fans.

    3:16 You see the faces of the ones gathered up front of the crowd. Lydia, Jarl Balgruuf, the Companions, several other close ones to Dovahkiin.
    3:27 They are all silent, with their heads down, sad and in mourning.
    3:31 Camera pans through the still crowd toward the Skyforge where the Dovahkiin lies on a bed of wood planks accompanied by an old Iron Helmet
    3:45 The wife, tearing up, holds her face in her hands, until she slowly gazes upward and looks to the sky
    3:53 The wife's teary eye widens in astonishment
    4:00 Camera looks up revealing Odahviing, Paarthurnax and countless dragons circling peacefully overhead, honoring the Dovahkiin

    It will always be Skyrim that opened my eyes to the world of the fantastical: gallant Elves weaving their magic, Burly Nord blacksmiths hammering away at crude plates of wrought-iron as Secunda clears the horizon. Every snow-carpeted dale, surmounted by jagged mountain peaks similarly worn in snow, uplifted the Wanderer in me. From the sprawling crypts of Ancient Nordic warriors to the plethora of cottages hidden in the deepest reaches of the forest. Lore stowed away in old wood-worked shelves awoke a hunger in me. If not for Skyrim, I wouldn't be where I am today and for that I am eternally grateful.

    No joke, but I was on the verge of sleeping when I was napping this one time, but in the background on UA-cam, this music was playing.
    My house was white as snow because of the lighting of my house, and there was a cold breeze coming from my AC above me, like a winter breeze. That, along with this music, literally made me think for a good few minutes, that I was actually in Skyrim, or some faraway place, awakening to the cold winter snow.
    I was sort of disappointed to find out that I was still on Earth, but it goes to show you how powerful music can be. :P

    These fantasy games and songs really bring out the desire for me to return to a simpler life. I love gaming, UA-cam and streaming movies - but it's so suffocating. Unless you have sacks of cash or savings, to live so far out in the countryside amongst the dramatic scenery can be a hard life of poverty and daily toil. I'd take the fresh country scenery over suburbia anyday if I were some oil baron who could afford to explore endlessly and soak in the magic.

      The Rob I get the general gist of what you're saying, but the time period that these games are representing were by no means "simpler." And even if you were living in the world of Skyrim, it still wouldn't be simple at all. If you aren't a poor, hut-dwelling citizen who has to deal with a dull, monotonous life of harvesting the crops, fending off wolves and wild animals, then you might be a higher-up, wealthy citizen who still has to deal with the Stormcloak vs Imperial civil conflict as well as the rising number of dragons.

    in honour of my big brother from another mother, Darren Dilnot. May he rest in peace traversing the mountains, valleys, forests, deserts and lands of his own vivid imagination.
    miss you so much mate, you left a darren sized hole in me I cant fill. I think about you everyday, sat in ur chair playing skyrim or lotro of wow or shadow of war or reading ericson, tolkien or janny wurts.
    if it wasnt for you i would never have found my love for fantasy. thank for opening my eyes.
    miss you loads Mr D, with tears in my eyes, love from Mr T!

    I had a smile on my face up until the 1 minute mark, then the whole orchestra kicked in and I teared up like a bitch. The thought of all these wonderful players of London Philharmonic playing with such devotion and respect tugged on my heartstrings.

    In the heat of playing a magnificent game such as TES V: Skyrim, you often forget the other elements that go into making this such a great game. This piece of music is probably the best I have heard in a long while that can evoke the emotions of wonder and exploration coupled with the memories that this game have made for most who have played it. The ability to evoke such great emotion is simply too amazing to put in words fully ;.;

    The thing that makes this so much better than the original is, I think, the resources. Can you imagine if Jeremy Soule had access to the philharmonic orchestra for all the songs? It would be the best soundtrack ever. The talent that the members of this orchestra posses is incredible.

  • @sebbie_gonzo

    My favourite track from the game by far. I love looking at the beautiful art and remembering all of the wonderful experiences this game threw at us. Who *doesn't* remember their first time getting here 2:00? Or here 3:01? Or seeing Bleak Falls Barrow in the distance and wondering if you could get there 4:15? Some truly memorable encounters and experiences to be had... What a game!

    this song managed to make me cry. it's s beautifully crafted song that receives all the praise it should get, it brings back memories of walking through what seemed like an endless grasslands. when i first heard this i felt relaxed more relaxed than i've felt in years. when a song possesses the power to calm you, you know you've found true beauty in music. it really sucked having this interrupted by some wolves or bandits and fucking stray dragons.

    I wrote an entire backstory for my character in Skyrim a few years back. He had quite a troubled life before Helgen, and I chose this melody to represent it. So to me, this is really Skyrim's theme.
