Okay y'all. Hit me up with your favorite videogame music.

@starkatt The whole Bastion sound track is super important to me. ♥️

Also, from the new Zelda Breath of the Wild game, the first Divine Beast Va Ruta's dungeon music took my breath away and filled my eyes with tears. (...granted, I'm very susceptible to emotional responses from music. ^^;)

I set the video to start at the point you pass the first challenge of the dungeon. After completing each of the 5 challenges, the music changes slightly.

@starkatt In this video, all of the versions of the song are represented, one after the other.

When I was first playing through this dungeon, the music just completely sucked me in. It was at this moment that I realized I was playing a masterpiece, and from there on, I could not put it down. The soundtrack was a large part of that.

@mawr I was watching my partner play that section, and for me too that was the moment when I realized just how inspired the composition in that game is.

@mawr Oh gosh listening to this again I didn't notice the changes as you progress. This is incredible.

@starkatt I didn't realize it either until I looked up the track list and found 5 separate tracks for what I'd assumed was a single song.

It was so subtle in the game that with each added element, I just assumed it had always been there.

I cannot even put words to how amazing I think this composition was. I'm just speechless. It worked so well.

@mawr Oh wow I definitely didn't see her hit this tempo change. Holy shit.
