@@acceptablecasualty5319 That's true. Romero still loves the Heroes of Might & Magic franchise.

He has a channel on youtube btw.

@@OldNileDepot HOMM IV is kinda one of the "bad" ones of the series. But the music is AMAZING. Easily the best score out of the whole series, including the Might and Magic RPGs.
I cannot second this enough. . . The Heroes Franchise has a vast library of masterful art pieces of music. (sadly obscure in these times due to strategy tiles being less. . popular)
The fun part that it is in symphony halls))) Here in Russia there's a Heroes of might and magic concert's going almost every 1-2 years Yeah this game has a stellar soundtrack Honestly I'm so glad you have listened to it. I was always so curious about how you would react and analyse it. For me these sounds and motifs mean so much because it is through this game I got closer to my brother in my childhood. He was in his teenager faze in life back then and so he always wanted to be alone and to play video games. Luckily I learned how to play it quickly and we played it for hundreds of hours. This game is truly a gem that will forever stay in my heart as the Greatest adventure strategy game ever. Even though it's so old it feels so good to play. And the music is a huge part of it. If you are curious about what my favorite track is then it's gotta be Asylum. Incredible sound of evil, power and corruption. Thank you for reading this) Have a great day)
Ooh, this one is a bit of memory trip, very cool analysis! A little correction: this is actually a Nature faction theme (There are several factions in the game like Death, Life, Order, Chaos, Nature etc.) rather than an overworld theme. Think a fantasy village full of trees, elves, fairies, unicorns and other magical creatures. The overworld themes in this game are great and memorable too, I can still hum the Sea theme off the top of my head.
God this makes me hope for the Heroes III soubdtrack review so frickin baaaaad. Stillthanks for a video on one of my favorite game franchises in the world!!
HOMM3 soundtracks are very short, because they were made to loop fast (city themes, though the overworld themes are longer), but some compilation of these would be absolutely glorious. I love the wondrous, creepy and/or mystical nature of these OSTs
the background story of "sadness" you say fits pretty well, as basically, in part three, the planet was destroyed, and most of the creatures (life-affiliated) jumped through portals, huddled together and stuck together for survival. the sadness comes from the pretty world that was destroyed, and even though they are save now, they lost basically everything.
Wow! 😮 That game was part of my childhood and I really enjoyed it despite others saying that it's not as good as HMM3. Definitely remember the music with warmth, and Preserve is one of the best of the soundtrack. My other faves are The Academy of Honor, The Prayer, and Hope. Unexpected to hear you listening and analyzing it? Yes. In a good way? HECK YES!
Such an mind-blowing performance. The 2nd and the 4th games of the HoMM series are really special in their focus on operatic vocals, but the 3rd one is quite different: it's a small but also very competent symphonic journey (even though I'm pretty sure most of it are just really high quality samples) with no vocals. The town themes in it are so incredibly vivid and colorful that they are pretty much inseparable from their respective factions's unique identities. Necropolis has so much agony and pain in it without sounding "horror" in a cliche way, "the great open wilderness" that the Stronghold theme projects, the majestic soaring strings of the Tower theme and ominous and thunderous sound of their underground counterpart, the Dungeon faction... There's nothing like it to this day.
HoMM2-4 OSTs are my childhoods OST) Also i still in awe of live performances at Poland's Heroes Orchestra and Russian CAGMO together with original composer of those soundtracks. You can check those on youtube, you can see how performers are happy to perform those tracks
Oh shit, I remember when you started doing these videos years ago, I recommended listening to HOMM IV music. I'm so happy you have now done just that. The Preserve is great, but the other civilizations themes are amazing as well !
omg i’m so happy you’re doing a video on this its one of my favorite game soundtracks ever and i remember 20 years ago being a kid and watching my dad play heroes iv
People can call this the worst Heroes game, but soundtrack is on another level. A pure masterpiece and one of favourite soundtrack on a par with Transistor.
The Romero OSTs for the Heroes series are incredible, and you might be able to get him to collab on a video - he was willing to do a bit even with Sszeth, after all
Great video, also of note, the other reaction video you did of the Sorceress theme from the 2nd game (1996), the singer was also Karin Mushegain, who was still just a teenager at the time. She also sung other pieces in that game (Knight, Barbarian 'Opera' and both Sorceress themes), as well as this piece and 'Chaos' from the 4th game, and finally 'Haven' from the 5th game, in case you wanna track them down.
Homm4 soundtrack is magnificent overall, you definitely could listen to some of that's greatness. Looking forward to seeing your reaction to it. Personal suggestions are both Chaos and Order themes.
Great video, I would love if you can cover the other soundtracks of Heroes of Might & Magic IV! Truly one of the best works by Paul Romero and Rob King
I would recommend Hope (dirt theme). Also from Heroes of Might and Magic 4. Tbh, All music from Heroes4 are the best. You never get tired listen to them.
All tracks from homm series deserves A reaction. Especially homm3 ,4, 5 im so glad that those games of my childhood are getting deserved credit for thier tracks. I hope there will be more of this because right now my inner child is happy xD. And you just reacted to WoW themes....what a legend Ps: 0:53 Love the flabbergasted expression on your face whenever you hear opera singers
HOMM3 is a game I've been playing on and off for 15 years now. The music in it gets my feels everytime, so good! Would love for you to take a listen at it
Oh my goodness, I LOVE when people try out or listen to music from absolute classics. This video opened up the whole Pandora's Box (heeehee ;) ) of memories for me. HOMM games were my childhood and I've always loved the vibe Paul Romero's music have. I recommend checking out the HOMM3 soundtrack as a whole (though it doesn't have human singing unfortunately), but if that's too much, I suggest some Town themes, especially ''Fortress theme'' that captures the wonder and reptile nature of the town (It's quite literally full of lizardmen and reptile creatures, located on a great swamp.), and ''Necropolis'' & ''Inferno'' themes that both captures two different types of evil vibe, one reminds me of a dance with death and the other is a more classic approach to diabolical beings. If you are more interested in Paul Romero's take on nature, the ''Grass'', ''Lava'', ''Rough''(a rock desert with little life, very dry climate, almost sounds like someone's life slipping away, like you are on the last drop of water, yet other life goes on) and ''Snow'' themes capture nature in a beautiful way. I've never thought you can express the temperature and surroundings with music, but these are the perfect examples of that. Great video as always!
The soundtrack of Heroes 4 has helped me through some of the toughest times of my life in my 20s. Pretty sure would not be where I am today if it wasn't for all of these exceptional tracks.
Oh man, I haven't played Homm4 that much, and I didn't know what to expect going into this video, but as soon as I heard vocals come in, memories instantly flooded my brain. I knew it was Nature's theme, I knew how the song went, to my surprise I rememberd so much in a second. That's the power of the music right there
loved it, there's like 6 factions in homm4 (life, death, order, chaos, nature, barbarians...) and each has their own music while you are in that faction's city screen making units/buildings.. then there is a few for when you're outside making move on map (grass, sea, snow..) and some for battles and 1 song for end turn (watching enemy move)
While Heroes 4 is ok, the Heroes 3 will always be the defacto best soundtrack of the entire franchise. Necropolis, Fortress, Inferno, Stronghold being the heavy hitters of all (These game are literally my childhood so I'm beyond ecstatic that these are getting some love, blessed be the soundtracks of the pre 00s)
Myyyyyy childhood! Got flashback of happily collecting gold for my town, then suddenly the computer comes around the corner and wooops my ass ;_; ptsd to the max.
it’s been 3-4 freaking days since I went and picked HoMM 4 up again just becuse of this video, and it still creeps me when the duo part starts… thanks for the nostalgia and Order is supreme!
Just a quick note, that it's not an overworld theme, it's a town theme. Also, wanted to say, that there is a lot of people mentioning 3, 4 and 5 chapters of the game, but there is actually a lot of great opera-like singing in part 2 of that series. And, what i find pretty cool, is that somtetimes it includes real-world pieces of text on german or latin, like in this themes: ua-cam.com/video/GzuCcyl6cfo/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/wrp1hEtU0ys/v-deo.html
The "sadness" part can by explain by the lore game. In Heroes 4 we are in a new world called Axeoth. The old one (Heroes 3) world was destroyed. The kingdom of Avlee (Elves) has suffer the most, lossing most of it's populations, losign Ents, Green/Gold Dragons, pegasus. Old allies like Centaurs and dwarves has abandon them + the new kingdom of elves (Aranorn) is in civil war. So.. for the elves came hard times in this new world.
One of my fav titles, lovely game of my childhood. I still remember how I liked this game, much more than overhyped HMM3. And yes, it has insanely good OST - every music track is total bliss.
yoooI've been commenting asking different channels to do this for years I love this game so much the entire ost is so close to my heart I've had this song stuck in my head since I was like 8. you should check out the Heroes of might and magic orchestra in poland I believe they've done just about every song from the series live orchestra infront of an audience amazing stuff
Watching you do this series would be a awesome i'd also love to recommend the settlers 7 menu soundtrack "Hero Within" if you are gonna do more similar strategy games for music analysis
Thrilled to see HMM reactions on ur channel on fourth and second instalments however never seen any from third. I suggest you to check "Heroes Of Might And Magic III Soundtrack-Inferno Town" a beautiful representation of a hellish land scene with clever arpeggios i guess u will love it. Simple but considered as masterpiece for many of us. There's also an orchestra playing HMM sound tracks i suggest you to listen the inferno from them too: "Heroes Orchestra - Inferno"
there is a christmas song whose name escapes me (I think it was sung by Charlotte Church) but it sounds very similar to the non-solo parts of this song which keeps catching me off guard because I keep expecting it to resolve differently.... Either way, they really did a lot of good work on this song and it turned out great
The might and magic series also has great music. Its more meandering but heroes 6 and 7 especially have some really wonderful pieces. Romero and king know their onions.
man if this soundtrack dont convince you to play heroes4 then nothing can. Heroes 4 have one OF THE BEST music soundtracks in game each city and even music on adventure map is sooooooo godly u need to hear and react to each other soundtrack!
Personally, out of all the HoM&M tracks I know, I'd recommend Tower, Stronghold and Ramparts (III), Hope and Floating across water (both IV) and the "Sylvan" theme (V). The third installment was the top all-rounder, the fourth one had the best music (well, individual pieces - anyway) and the fifth one kept the music quality, buffed my favourite faction (Necropolis) with new archer units, yet lost out on the artstyle as it turned to generic WoW-like fantasy instead of keeping it medieval-lite. For react recommendations, I'd have *Izaro and Grand Arena* themes from _Path of Exile_ Other game music I could recommend (though not really as a react content - more so as relaxing pieces, I guess) - The Settlers IV, though it's not so much of a "serious" game and Port Royale 2. Both games have some pleasant soundtracks - really helps one "feel" into the game. Legenda: Poselství trůnu 2 is pretty much an unknown game, yet I'd value hearing your opinion of it's soundtrack.
HoMMIV is very underated, imho have perhaps the best OST of all the games in the series. There is a lot of good songs that I recommend you checking out, mostly from HoMM 2/4, those are more opera focused. Many town themes in the 2nd game are fantastic.
I love your videos and I’m begging you to listen to the Hyperion Boss fight music for the game Returnal. It has to be the most impactful song in the game for reasons you can explore for yourself if interested. Keep up the good work!
HoMM 4 original soundtrack is most underrated in industry due to unsuccess of a game. But it's charisma is blasting. Please, look also at Life\Castle theme. Basically every race theme is pure charisma and talent.
Hey Marco! You simply MUST try Heroes of Might and Magic 5 soundtrack! It is amazing and while it has some "generic" battle tracks the factional city sountracks and some of the more race specific OSTs are phenomenal. Hell, the Order faction has straight up religious hymns playing as their city music, and undead have the same... but reversed and remixed into creaking, shrilling version.
Maybe this music is sad because of tth Lore of Heroes 4. In previous game all the Enroth planet was destroyed and all the creatures just being teleported to new unknown planet called Axioth. It`s not their homeworld, and it`s full of unknown dangers.
Please react to more music from Heroes of Might and Magic! Paul Anthony Romero has composed timeless classics that can be appreciated by both gamers and music practitioners!

There is a Heroes Orchestra in Poland. They play the HoMaM series music live. In some occasions with Paul Anthony Romero himself as well.
I've heard Preserve in their rendition for the first time - I never was a big fan of HOMM4, but they made me realize that the music is still pristine.

@@OldNileDepoti don't like that they changed the lyrics.
@@OldNileDepot HOMM IV is kinda one of the "bad" ones of the series. But the music is AMAZING. Easily the best score out of the whole series, including the Might and Magic RPGs.
goddammit!! I've been staying in Poland for a couple months now and had no idea, I could've attended in september if I knew about it
Heroes 3, 4 and 5 are full of such great pieces. I recommend checking out as much as you can, I'm sure you won't be disappointed
I cannot second this enough. . . The Heroes Franchise has a vast library of masterful art pieces of music. (sadly obscure in these times due to strategy tiles being less. . popular)
Heroes 2 ost is stacked with operatic pieces.
dont forget 2, it has some awsome operatic pieces as well
yeah Homm 2 needs the spotlight also - Wizard and necromancer themes are incredible, among others
Man, the music of these games has been stuck with me my entire life, it's just that good.
Need more reacts of this, especially HoMM 4 and 5
HoMM Heaven town theme would be a great candidate
Seriously, Heroes of Might and Magic series has some of the best video game music out there. Paul Anthony Romero kills it everytime.
"Hey hey people" is all i could think when i saw the title
The fun part that it is in symphony halls)))
Here in Russia there's a Heroes of might and magic concert's going almost every 1-2 years
Yeah this game has a stellar soundtrack

HoMM 4 soundtrack from Paul Romero was probably his best work. While game itself is a bit controversial, everybody agrees on the OST being godly
4 has some really cool features, and did a lot right. It just didn't quite capture the same style as HOMM3
God this makes me hope for the Heroes III soubdtrack review so frickin baaaaad. Stillthanks for a video on one of my favorite game franchises in the world!!
2 and 5 are really underrated too, cant wait.
HOMM3 soundtracks are very short, because they were made to loop fast (city themes, though the overworld themes are longer), but some compilation of these would be absolutely glorious. I love the wondrous, creepy and/or mystical nature of these OSTs
Very rare track for a game. Can't believe Heroes series is so old... I still remember playing 3rd part. Time flies.

Yeah! The best town theme of 4!
This old gem of a game deserve more love!
If you haven't already, Homm 2 has great opera music and Homm 3 also has some really good bangers.
HoMM V has a bunch of interesting tracks, the Sylvan town theme being a banger
Haven too.
Wow! 😮
That game was part of my childhood and I really enjoyed it despite others saying that it's not as good as HMM3.
Definitely remember the music with warmth, and Preserve is one of the best of the soundtrack. My other faves are The Academy of Honor, The Prayer, and Hope.

Okay now you HAVE TO react to the 9 faction (city) themes of Heroes of Might and Magic 3
You'll love Necropolis
The heroes of might and magic series is such a big part of my childhood xD I loved these games so much.
I wold LOVE to see your analysis on Order from the same HOMM 4!
Oh shit, I remember when you started doing these videos years ago, I recommended listening to HOMM IV music. I'm so happy you have now done just that. The Preserve is great, but the other civilizations themes are amazing as well !

People can call this the worst Heroes game, but soundtrack is on another level. A pure masterpiece and one of favourite soundtrack on a par with Transistor.
If you interested I highly recommend listen to themes of towns of different fractions in HoMM V, especially of Sylvan (elves) and Haven (humans)
How did I miss this?! The homm themes is the music of my childhood, the travel themes are on repeat in my head when Im hiking around the world
I have goosebumps.
I found your channel through Elden Ring and really wanted to suggest HOMM4. So happy that you already knew about it.
The Romero OSTs for the Heroes series are incredible, and you might be able to get him to collab on a video - he was willing to do a bit even with Sszeth, after all

Can't wait for this song to be included in next opera singer interview :D

I've never thought you can express the temperature and surroundings with music, but these are the perfect examples of that.

That song is a masterpiece. Loved it 20 years ago and still today

Wasn't it a thing that the Bulgarian Women's Choir was recorded pitched-up and they left it that way? Either way the result is really eerie and cool

also @MarcoMeatball, you might wanna try Castle too since it also has some ‘parts’ you’d like to look into as well…
Oh yeah, Heroes 4. I still get chills when I listen to the Chaos Castle theme.
Just a quick note, that it's not an overworld theme, it's a town theme. Also, wanted to say, that there is a lot of people mentioning 3, 4 and 5 chapters of the game, but there is actually a lot of great opera-like singing in part 2 of that series.
And, what i find pretty cool, is that somtetimes it includes real-world pieces of text on german or latin, like in this themes:

One of my fav titles, lovely game of my childhood. I still remember how I liked this game, much more than overhyped HMM3. And yes, it has insanely good OST - every music track is total bliss.
Heroes 4 has legit the best soundtrack ever
This is essentially wood / nature faction melody.
I was not expecting this at all
As far as I'm concered there are full opera / orchestra versions of entire ost-s that can be found online. Heroes Orchestra is good place to start.
Finally!!! My favorit game audio
yoooI've been commenting asking different channels to do this for years I love this game so much the entire ost is so close to my heart I've had this song stuck in my head since I was like 8. you should check out the Heroes of might and magic orchestra in poland I believe they've done just about every song from the series live orchestra infront of an audience amazing stuff
Literally the best song in game
Watching you do this series would be a awesome i'd also love to recommend the settlers 7 menu soundtrack "Hero Within" if you are gonna do more similar strategy games for music analysis
You have a lot of music to react to in this series, that's for sure!
In Poland we have a orchiestra that plays the music from whole Homm series and other classic games like ghotic.
Thrilled to see HMM reactions on ur channel on fourth and second instalments however never seen any from third. I suggest you to check "Heroes Of Might And Magic III Soundtrack-Inferno Town" a beautiful representation of a hellish land scene with clever arpeggios i guess u will love it. Simple but considered as masterpiece for many of us. There's also an orchestra playing HMM sound tracks i suggest you to listen the inferno from them too: "Heroes Orchestra - Inferno"
Yo, Heroes of Might and Magic III? Basically every track there is legendary, with the main menu theme leading the charge.
Heroes of Might and Magic IV?
This is gonna be really good!
Sea theme the best for me
And now an interview with Mr. Romero next : p
Now that HoMM door has been open, I must ask for only one react : Hope, also from HoMM4. So much melancholy and nostalgia in this one.
there is a christmas song whose name escapes me (I think it was sung by Charlotte Church) but it sounds very similar to the non-solo parts of this song which keeps catching me off guard because I keep expecting it to resolve differently.... Either way, they really did a lot of good work on this song and it turned out great
The might and magic series also has great music. Its more meandering but heroes 6 and 7 especially have some really wonderful pieces. Romero and king know their onions.
oh my goosh, I did I miss this? I'm pretty sure I suggested homm4 music a long time ago, let's get into it!
I absolutely love the music in HoMaM. The Necropolis theme in the third game is probably my fave, but there are loads of good ones.
man if this soundtrack dont convince you to play heroes4 then nothing can. Heroes 4 have one OF THE BEST music soundtracks in game each city and even music on adventure map is sooooooo godly u need to hear and react to each other soundtrack!
More from Heroes plsss !!!
You should do the castle life theme from might and magic 4 at some point
Is there any chance you react to the best track of whole HoMM4 - Floating Across Water (Sea Theme) ?
Personally, out of all the HoM&M tracks I know, I'd recommend Tower, Stronghold and Ramparts (III), Hope and Floating across water (both IV) and the "Sylvan" theme (V). The third installment was the top all-rounder, the fourth one had the best music (well, individual pieces - anyway) and the fifth one kept the music quality, buffed my favourite faction (Necropolis) with new archer units, yet lost out on the artstyle as it turned to generic WoW-like fantasy instead of keeping it medieval-lite.
For react recommendations, I'd have *Izaro and Grand Arena* themes from _Path of Exile_
Other game music I could recommend (though not really as a react content - more so as relaxing pieces, I guess) - The Settlers IV, though it's not so much of a "serious" game and Port Royale 2. Both games have some pleasant soundtracks - really helps one "feel" into the game.
Legenda: Poselství trůnu 2 is pretty much an unknown game, yet I'd value hearing your opinion of it's soundtrack.
Hey homm4 life and homm4 chaos are also pretty stellar songs.
yay, heroes have lot of good music
Best music from the Heroes series is Haven's theme from Heroes 5 :D
Oh yeah, dat game has a wonderful musics.
If you like this, check the Asylum theme from the same game. It's amazing.
HoMMIV is very underated, imho have perhaps the best OST of all the games in the series. There is a lot of good songs that I recommend you checking out, mostly from HoMM 2/4, those are more opera focused. Many town themes in the 2nd game are fantastic.
I love your videos and I’m begging you to listen to the Hyperion Boss fight music for the game Returnal. It has to be the most impactful song in the game for reasons you can explore for yourself if interested. Keep up the good work!
HoMM 4 original soundtrack is most underrated in industry due to unsuccess of a game. But it's charisma is blasting. Please, look also at Life\Castle theme. Basically every race theme is pure charisma and talent.
Hey Marco! You simply MUST try Heroes of Might and Magic 5 soundtrack! It is amazing and while it has some "generic" battle tracks the factional city sountracks and some of the more race specific OSTs are phenomenal. Hell, the Order faction has straight up religious hymns playing as their city music, and undead have the same... but reversed and remixed into creaking, shrilling version.
the HOMM4 soundtrack (and HOMM series in general) is full of bangers. HOMM2 and HOMM4 are the highlights if you don't have time.
Maybe this music is sad because of tth Lore of Heroes 4. In previous game all the Enroth planet was destroyed and all the creatures just being teleported to new unknown planet called Axioth. It`s not their homeworld, and it`s full of unknown dangers.

Please react to more music from Heroes of Might and Magic! Paul Anthony Romero has composed timeless classics that can be appreciated by both gamers and music practitioners!
