      Except this is not Mesoamerican at all. This has heavy Spaniard influence, and while they did conquer Mesoamerica (the Spanish, I mean), the true musical roots for the South-American cone is not as close to this as you might perceive.
      The music, sadly, does not fit the setting. But I know better than to expect Japanese devs understanding the difference between hispanic and latino music.

    I feel like coming from Endwalker, so much of DT’s ost is gonna be sleeper hits that grow on you after a few listens. But this one’s just fantastic from the jump.
    Can’t wait til you post the dungeon boss themes.

    • @TransientWitch
      @TransientWitch Місяць тому +4

      Absolutely agreed. It was how I felt when it was Endwalker out of Shadowbringers...I adore Insatiable as a boss theme. On Blade's Edge was enjoyable to me from early on, but it kept growing on me as we heard it more and now it's another of my favorites...And then I heard the dungeon boss theme for Dawntrail and had to wonder just WHY it went so hard. It grew on me very quickly...And then I hit the big story battle late in MSQ and the 100 dungeon. It's already one of my favorites. DT delivered sublime music at every step.

    STB: War is happening, and the triumphant music is there to hype you up for battle
    SHB: You are in a strange new land and the music reflects it by being drastically different with the use of guitars
