    47:17 probably the most beautiful piece of music I've ever heard in a PC game. just too good.

      Absolutely - I was like 10 or 12 years old when I played it. I'm sure I missed half the jokes, and some of the dialogue, English not being my native language, but I got the jist of it. The atmosphere, the romance of being an absolutely free and wild animal, and Ludwig II's sad tale. I've got to say, the writers did an excelent job exploiting the unknowns and the mysteries aroudn this king. It all made perfect sense in this story, haha :) Then again, I went to visit Neuschwanstein after I'd traveled through Austria, and went back through Germany, back to Holland, and the reality really screwed up the fantasies and the romantic idea's I had about that place :( It's not like you're Grace Nakimora and you can walk around wherever you please on your own. You have to stand in line to book a tour, that will depart five hours from the moment you book it, because it's so damn busy and crowded. There's restaurants, tourist shops, different buildings that used to house servants that you can visit as well, but who cares.
      I wasn't having it and drove off, found a nice spot down the hill, in the surrounding forrests, next to a stream that poured all the way from the castle. And with a view on one of the towers, of which I knew, it was there that Grace discovered the last piece of Wagner's hidden opera, I listened to Ludwig's Song. My dad not understanding any of it, because he never played that magical game, Gabriel Knight: The Beast Within.

    I love how the WolfCam theme is a more brooding, ominous rendition of the Wolfgang Ritter / Heart of a Schattenjäger theme that appeared in the other titles. It's so effective, considering what's happening in the game while that music is playing. Gotta love Dean Erickson!

      One thing that really sold the character for me is that he gets scared in these situations like anyone would.

    The effort they put into this game. The settings, the actors, the story and atmosphere... and the soundtrack. This was one of the best Point and click adventure games I've ever played.

    • @KBP120
      @KBP120 2 роки тому +2

      It's Craftsmanship. They really crafted and produced a special production with this game. Just so different from anything within even the last 20 years. The care, the effort, the trying to perfect everything, the casting, the coordination of the order that things must be done to advance. There will never be anything like it, or the 90's again.

    Missing the castle theme when you are in the Rittersberg Castle as Grace. That's such a good one..it's like a home base theme. That safe feeling piano tune.

      I'm 30 years old. Around the year 2000 I'd play this game but never get very far. 10-11 year old me was unaware of splicing the tapes. I recently came back to this game this year and was in complete awe. This too is my favorite song. The build up is beautiful and sad. Melancholic and haunting.

      @TheBadsc9 6 років тому +4

      it's not that Jane Jensen does't wnat to make GK4 she already have a story lined up but she is't able to create it since the Sierra company was acquired by Blizzard so the rights to the gabriel Knight games are in the hands of Blizzard and Jane Jensen have asked them over and over again if they would like to make it since she has the story for it lined up but they DON'T have any plans on creating a new game and yeah I wrote don't in big letters since gk2 was my first cd rom game back when I had my 486 pc with 33mhz and was able to get up upgraded to 66mhz and a 6x speed cd rom drive and soundblaster 16 yey but hey that was the way it was back then and without that type of hardware back then then we don't have what we have today :-) but trust me it's not like I don't want to have a nother gk game since I would love to although it's not like in the sierra's high time true I know the gk3 game was good and all but in some way the games with live actors and so on is in a way special my mom once told me that she drove by the castle together with my grandmother at an vacation a few years ago witch I would't mind seeing myself the street the post office in munich is in is still there :-) sony did have an HD or was it an UHD test video where it was in and when I see it I still think back to gk2 :-)

    In France, this game is considered as a very ridiculous one because the voices in french are horribles. But, as a french (and as a fan of king Ludwig II of Bavaria ) I love this game and its soundtrack. I think Gabriel Knight 2 is very underestimated.
    On top of that there's Van Glower 😏

  • @EtHaN198718

    when i played it a long time after I finished the 1º GK, i was afraid
    this would had been a letdown, because of the film graphic style, i was
    really weary of that...then i came across a good story, a little bit
    slim or poor about how the events were chained up, compared to GK1, but
    good after all...in the end i really got empatized whith the characters
    and story, so after all it was a success as a game for me....then i
    played GK3, again desirin a comeback to the classic well drawn 2d
    sprites but surprisingly seeing another experiment, this time with
    somewhat poor 3d grafics...but this time the story impact was crushing:
    when i reached the middle i couldn't stop playing until finished...it is
    OUTSTANDINGLY GOOD....to the point i now believe that dan brown's da
    vinci code novel is inspired by the game plot

    Some of these songs have a very "Twin Peaks" quality to them. Especially the drawn out synth notes and orchestral sweeps.

    I don't understand why this game's soundtrack makes me cry every time. Its not only that is good but also maybe the game's setting and the 90s romance/nostalgia. Too bad that they turned Gabriel Knight 3 into 3D it should continue the FMV approach.

      er sagt" ihr seid doch KEIN Mastkalb." und wenn du den nächsten Sinn betrachtest, wo er sagt "spielt nicht den märtyrer" macht der Satz sinn, weil er sagen will, dass er nicht geboren ist, um "geschlachtet zu werden"/ sinnlos sein Leben weg zu geben.
