      Based on the E3 trailer, I’m guessing that this kingdom will be more alive than the other, and I don’t think that it will have “fallen” (so I don’t think that Grimm will be there, sadly). I’m not very good at looking at lore and stuff like that, so my opinion may be flawed. I’m hoping for more of a fierce vibe too.

Still, they made a whole amazing fcng game with even more content than promised, despite not reaching certain stretch goals (like the Colosseum of Fools). Then, they released FREE fcng DLCs. And now they have money to hire actual performers for the sequel’s soundtrack. I’m so happy that their dedication and goodwill are paying off.

I suggested we listen to this one and after a minute I said "we can stop if you want" because she looked kinda bored but she said "no it's beautiful, it's amazing" and then she switched to the video where you can see them playing and watched the whole thing again. If my grandmother, who doesn't play video games past candy crush, loves this music, then it's going to be an amazing game.

    That is one of the smoothest and most seamless uses of an odd time signature (5/4 and, in some sections, 3/4) in video game music. I'm sure many people didn't notice there was something strange in the tempo, and that's the beauty of it.
    Edit: Jack Steer, you're right I didn't notice that! It switches to 3/4 in some sections, so I'm editing my comment to insert that

    • @jacksteer6301

    • @orlandoavogadro
      @orlandoavogadro 4 роки тому +143

      Jack Steer our boy chris has a lot of aces up his sleeve when it comes to write scores. mu favorite example is his implementation of leitmotifs. look at the dirtmouth theme for example. if we exclude the crossroads, this theme is present in all the major beginning zones of the game (dirtmouth, greenpath, fungal wastes, and even a slight hint in the city of tears), and the more you delve deeper into the kingdom, the more it adapts to the area. in fact, while it is very obvious in greenpath's score, where we can almost hear the full theme, it becomes less obvious in the wastes, where only the first three notes are fully recognisable, and if we progress all the way to the capital, we can hear a very very subtle hint of it, as the two scores share the first note.
      the other major example of leitmotifs is, obviously, the hollow knight theme. I'm not gonna talk much about that, since it has been covered in an almost endless series of videos, but I wanna mention a really cool detail that I noticed while playing: the hollow knight's theme, which is, by extension, a theme for all the vessels is present in the score for the resting grounds, a place made to honor the dead, as if almost to symbolize that no vessel is actually truly alive, as it has been hollowed out by the void.
      See, it's those little musical details that make me want to come back and revisit the game from time to time, just to experience how much they add to the game, and how they make it perfect.
      And if christofer keeps up the good work,

    Pardon me for being sacrilegious, but I like this song more than Hornet's theme from last game. It took me several hearings of each to truly make up my mind, but this song is just perfect. The all strings aesthetic works like a charm, and the song overall paints a more dramatic and hectic personality. This song is as tense as the strings on the instruments used to play it.

    I often end up listening to this song multiple times in a row because the ending is so intense that it leaves me wanting more.
    At the end of many of the fights in Hollow Knight a few sad piano notes play as the infection drains out of our enemy and we realize with a twinge of guilt and sadness that we just killed something, often the last remaining shard of life. It’s somber and somewhat sorrowful.
    After double checking the treehouse footage, the ending of the lace track plays at the end of the lace fight, as she zips away like Hornet did so many times. Those intense notes aren’t just the end of a battle, but the beginning of a fierce and passionate rivalry between Hornet and Lace.
    I cannot wait to get my hands on this game!

      I did the same thing, I was cautious to buy hollow knight because I knew nothing about it so I watched full playthroughs of it. I'm gonna try and not watch any videos on Silksong because I want to experience stuff on my own through trial and error. it didn't ruin hollow knight for me, and I think I had a good reason for doing it because I didn't want to buy a random game knowing nothing about it (although I may have gone a bit overboard) but now that I'm a big fan of hollow knight, I need no convincing to buy Silksong so I should be able to go into it mostly blind (aside from footage already released that I watched because I couldn't help myself.)
