This game was at my church for the longest time. I never was able to get farther than the big cutscene at the beginning except for one time, when I got to the first village. Fuck, this music was amazing though. LOVED IT!
Almost sounds like a boss battle theme, well that's what I thought at my first play of it. Motoi Sakaruba did a great job on this track as well as others.
@@geovaughan8261 I've never played it (criminal, I know), but I imagine it's probably more of a Shining game than any of the Shining games that came after the Camelot era.
Thanks for uploading I do still have a sega saturn and this game! But probably never gonna play it again but I just loved the music from this game it was way ahead of its time I think and a big inspiration for me making music
Have there been any other games made with same style of this game since it came out? The whole game being in block steps and first person always seemed to make each maze way more intense since you knew at every corner you would get attacked and then even on straight sections you might get attack from below/above/in-front. Constantly trying to trigger the right kinda Pixie also helps to tense up dungeons since you only had two seconds to select the right one and trigger it. Shining in the Darkness and Phantasy Star 4 were both similar in combat but the summons and Critical attacks (physical type and magical type as well) were massively improved in this game. The Djinn system in the Golden Sun series is pretty neat but it always felt a little weird to me, gimmicky I guess would be the word for it... but it still has some of the best music on handhelds. I love you Camelot/(Que harp and violin)Sonic! Software Planning.
Try a game on the Japanese Sega Saturn called Dragon Master Silk....But nah...Still doesnt come close to the greatest that is this game....Its kind of like SITHA will all anime chicks and it has the block step first-person style
Did you know gaming did a Shin Megami Tensei series video today. Apparently a bunch of the older games in the franchise were FPDC's. Most didn't get translated but I'll look into these as well.
they are very similar to the characters in the game Shining Force III except for the first one (_____, Spiriel, Noon, Masqurin, Julian, Murasame, Hazuki and Frank)
This is... Golden Sun!?! oh! wait! a counterpart from it! i had no idea the Shining saga was related to Shining Resonance Refrain, i though the game i was playing was a totally a new IP but inspired by Tales Of Series, this is not a coincident :v
Shining Resonance Refrain has nothing to do with the Camelot Shining games or Golden Sun. Shining Resonance was not by Camelot. Sega ditched Camelot in 1998 so they went to Nintendo to make Golden Sun and Mario sports games. So Sega had to compensate with idiots who never touched the series. Shining Resonance is an insult to the franchise.
I really and truely wish for a new "Shining+" that isn't a new shining force offshoot that sucks monkeypeen0r, but a true JRPG like Shining in the Darkness and Shining the Holy ark. I can probably wish into one hand and crap into the other and have a pretty good idea of which hand fills up first, but hey. A guy can dream.
Shining Wisdom (worst one imo) Shining The Holy Ark Shining Force III: Scenarios 1-3 + Bonus disc Those need to come to Switch alongside Golden Sun 1-3, Panzer Dragoon Saga, and Skies of Arcadia.
Yes, you're allowed to rip of your own style but golden sun is pretty much exactly the same visually down to the sound effects and menus even. I love that though so woo.
This game was made by Sonic Software Planning, who later became Camelot, the ones who made Golden Sun. Also they have the same composer. You could say this game was something of a precursor to Golden Sun.
な、懐かしすぎる…。当時初めてハマったRPGでした。
From the moment I start the game, to the moment I finish, this battle theme gets me hyped for every encounter.
Hell Yeah ..!
This extended is my “get shit done” theme. I never stop moving
That drop before the upbeat ALWAYS gets me every time!
Say, say, say! It sounds very similar to that song.
This game was at my church for the longest time. I never was able to get farther than the big cutscene at the beginning except for one time, when I got to the first village.
Fuck, this music was amazing though. LOVED IT!
Maybe they thought it was a religious game as it used the words "holy" and "ark" in the title.
Video games at a church? Sounds like a pretty cool church.
did you go to JRPG Church or something?
@@mattjenkin2884 nah it just Motoi Sakuraba going hard
replaying this for like the 100th time. One of my favourite games ever.
By now, you're probably up to about 150.
One of my favorite battle themes. It fits the fast pace nature of the game and its battles.
First RPG! Never ever forgot this tune! Would hum it for days!
Almost sounds like a boss battle theme, well that's what I thought at my first play of it. Motoi Sakaruba did a great job on this track as well as others.
In a way, when you first hear it, it is on a boss, if you consider Rodi a boss.
このゲーム楽しかったなぁ〜
Watching Golden Sun battle gifs alongside this. It fits perfectly.
Because golden sun was always a shining series game at heart.
@@geovaughan8261 I've never played it (criminal, I know), but I imagine it's probably more of a Shining game than any of the Shining games that came after the Camelot era.
Gives me the chills and excitement at the same time!!
what a game!!! Great from start to finish!!
awesome game and awesome characters!
Yamaha YMF292 - Loving it! :D
My first RPG !! :)
Thanks for uploading I do still have a sega saturn and this game! But probably never gonna play it again but I just loved the music from this game it was way ahead of its time I think and a big inspiration for me making music
melody uses elemental fire! rooooar!
This reminds me exactly of Golden Sun's battle music. I think Golden Sun got its musical from this masterpiece. Great song!!
Motoi Sakuraba did it again
And don't forget Tales of games.
same musician
@@VarthRock As well as Star Ocean and Valkyrie Profile.
@@symphony137 Don't be forgetting about Baten Kaitos
That opening alarm:
"OH SHIT, OH SHIT, SHIT, OH SHIT, OH SHIT, SHIT, SHIT, SHIT, SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!"
Also best alarm song ever.
I wish there will be more dungeon crawler shining games
Also this battle theme is awesome. has that "let's go!" feel
1:00 can't get more epic than that
名曲。
改めて聴いてなんか覚えのあるフレーズだなと思って説明文見た。
桜庭さん作曲だったこと今になって知った。
Such a good battle theme.
good, good times
Ive been looking for this everywhere thanks man :D
One of my Evergreen favorites🤩
To this day I have no idea what the time signature is at the beginning. Sakuraba is on another level
名作の名曲😊
this game had awesome music, can't deny that.
one of best battle themes!
One of the best casual battle themes i've ever heard on an RPG
Maybe one day I'll get round to the Fairy Bell run. . . it's not like it's been almost 20 years!
inmyrainbowcemetery actually got my first fairy bell 4 month ago....and it actually can break, better save it for last battle
@@andhikafebrino4014 Update: Did my first fairy bell run in 2023. Never say never!!
Now if I can only come up with battle theme music that is 1/4th this good 🤣
Camelot at their best!
"Rodi casts Madness!"
best battle song...
The title is "Shining the Holy Ark", not "in the Holy Ark"...anyway, the OST of this game is fantastic!!!
Yeah..should be a colon there to indicate it isn't of the holy ark

Golden Sun. It's made by the same developers. Movement is nothing like it is in Shining, but the combat is pretty much exactly the same.
Try etrian oddyssey on the ds / 3ds.

Shining in the Darkness on the Sega Genesis!
I always see the twinhead fight in the mansion when I hear this music!
Getting into battle just to hear the song type battle music
Master piece
Best battle theme ever in a video game.
Seek and destroy! my loyal pixies
I have to agree. I want to remix this so bad!
ya was a great gamre i got stuck on the clock area and snake tunnel but it was a good game
oh now this looks INCREDIBLY 90s
Juegazo que solo algunos hemos jugado, una penaaaaa, ojalá un remake.
I think golden sun got its whole style from this game.
Man I loved this game. And love this game. Somehow, I have two copies of it, and I don't want to part with either.
I heard if you try to run to this song you are guaranteed to have a heart attack
they are very similar to the characters in the game Shining Force III except for the first one (_____, Spiriel, Noon, Masqurin, Julian, Murasame, Hazuki and Frank)
please baby, please just give it to me. i never wanted anybody to just give it to me, baby.
my top favo rpg, sorry second is ff :P

このゲームの開発会社はソニックっていう名前だけど実は後のキャメロットだったりする

I can probably wish into one hand and crap into the other and have a pretty good idea of which hand fills up first, but hey. A guy can dream.
"Man I wish someone was a Holy Ark"
Shining:
*Rodi: *Brutal Fire level 3**
sonicteam2k1 god i love that 60s damage to all enemies, really save my butt over and over again....good times
yes sir.
ALRIGHT! TIME TO SPAM SOME DEMON FANGS IN A GOLDEN SUN GAME!
...Wait.
Well...PRISMATIC MISSLE!!!
Wish SEGA would release this for Switch
Shining Wisdom (worst one imo)
Shining The Holy Ark
Shining Force III: Scenarios 1-3 + Bonus disc
Those need to come to Switch alongside Golden Sun 1-3, Panzer Dragoon Saga, and Skies of Arcadia.
True man. Sega has so many unreleased lost games.
Yes, you're allowed to rip of your own style but golden sun is pretty much exactly the same visually down to the sound effects and menus even. I love that though so woo.
Totally
would you do the music for west shrine?cant find it anywhere
桜庭統なんだよねー
Is it just me but it's very similar to Camelot's other RPG series Golden Sun's music?
This game was made by Sonic Software Planning, who later became Camelot, the ones who made Golden Sun. Also they have the same composer.
You could say this game was something of a precursor to Golden Sun.
初期武器を戦闘で使ったらチート攻撃できたっけな
Isaac? Felix? Piers? Jenna? Is that you?
you Ream Arthur, Melody, Forte, Rodi, Akane, Doyle, Lisa and Basso?
ImpossibleCakePro deym you are right XD
通常戦闘BGMとたまに発動する必殺技みたいな演出に極振りしたシャイニングシリーズの汚点だと思ってる
Well, it WAS developed by the same guys....
I thought this was Final Fantasy
This is better than Final Fantasy
my top favo rpg, sorry second is ff :P
