      Unless I missed something, his first appearance is at the 5:52 mark, playing "Rivers in the Desert" from "Persona 5". Yeah, he was already there in 2017.
      However, the performance that made him a legend among gamers didn't come until the Medley of 2022, playing "The Weight of Life" from "Xenoblade Chronicles 3", seen at the 22:28 mark. And the rest is history.

    The orchestra is my favorite part about the game awards, because, to me, even if people have their own opinions on who should win what or similar, the music and the work the orchestra puts into this really does help convey the message that the Game Awards should be a time to celebrate gaming as a whole, and from the years I've been watching, 2018-2023, they've hit a bullseye every time!
    On a recent note, MAN, this year's orchestra was amazing!

    It's absolutely impressive how the quality ranks up from an already great 2021, to reach the 2022 and 2023 performances, where the compositions, transitions and play are close to perfect, deserving the qualification of top artistic performance. I'm so glad for all the nominees of both these years, to be immortalized in such a way is the award in itself, and it's a particularly strong symbol for the underdogs like Stray, who get to be carved into history alongside giants. I love what it builds, and Flute Guy - Perdro - surely agrees 😄

  • @DDragon1226
    @DDragon1226 11 місяців тому +7

    Honestly even hearing all of them like this one after another, 2022 ochestra is still the best. The way the songs perfectly blend together seamlessly is still surreal. And ofcourse the performance of the flute guy aka Pedro Eustache and that camera lag when elden ring theme comes up is unbeatable.

    Also big shout out to the guy who sang during the Control part. That was epic!!
    Also great to see the evolution of Flute Guy. ^_^

    2018 - The Most Popular as ppl remember this is the one where we all started to take the Game Awards Orchestra seriously.
    2019 - The Most Driven
    2020 - The most impactful because of the pandemic
    2021 - The Best Result of Bringing in Different types of the gaming spectrum
    2022 - Quite possibly the most emotional and impactful as every song on here made you feel something!
    2023 - Definitely the most interesting because of how the fans were still looking towards the business after the craziness of the year.
