How do I explain this, i like boss themes that start off strong or at least if you're building it up, have the beginning not last as as long as blooming does and the peak guitar vary it up more.

The beginning staying a verse too long into another low key verse before amping it up is what i don't prefer.

Except it does start off strong with the loving sinister rear end hool at the start that ramps up into Meguro riff 101? Like how the gently caress you say Blooming Villain has very little guitar variance and I'll Face Myself doesn't is silly to me especially with how unique the former's start is.

The Raidou 2 final boss having the Raidou 1 opening theme play during it is absolutely amazing

Maybe I listen to different stuff so Blooming's beginning sounds more cliche to me? I dunno. I've heard that sort of beginning way more than Face Myself.

And tbh you could've easily picked Will Power as a target because that theme is actually kind of lame and they use it for pivotal boss fights in the story, but it also shares post-awakening scene fights and sub bosses so it's clear they were missing a third boss track somewhere

It's still an alright theme, but it's not like amazing or anything and could've u sed some oomph

Mine was the version of Face Myself used for the Marie boss. Face Myself's biggest problem for me was its instrumentation so adding more, uh, instruments mad ita lot better.

Final boss music was pretty disappointing compared to Battle for Everyone's Souls and Burn My Dread LB.

Fog is great and underrated, it's a shame the game only uses it for a tiny bit of the final boss fight.

It'd be the opposite for me, all of the dungeon themes are forgettable except for Heaven and Long Way, while I like most of the rest of the soundtrack. Your Affection remains the best town music in a Persona by an enormous margin (don't know what P5 will bring to the table though).

Your Affection and SMILE are why I love just hanging out in P4 so much.

The P4 final boss music you mean?

I'm kind of curious what level you're supposed to be at for the true final boss. I was Level 93 with Lucifer who had Power Charge, Mind Charge, Primal Force and Megidolaeon (although I just used his Bufudyne since it seems Almighty attacks aren't that almighty in this game) and I annihilated her. I had more trouble with the eyeball, although I didn't have Debilitate for that fight.


Those first two are in my Top 5 Persona 3 songs. Really great for setting a mood.

p4's true final boss is only very deadly if they manage to land their status ailment/instant kill combo, which really doesnt happen that much because their AI generally prefers the middling damage attack spells instead

I used to mention this when mentioning the DDS2 final boss, they're kinda similarly structured and I liked it because of that, but I have to admit I forget it often as well.

NikkolasKing posted:

Yep, there's just too much buildup for too little payoff. The same melody keeps repeating a lot compared to how short the "Reach Out to the Truth" segment is so it just ends up feeling like the same 20 second loop for 5 minutes.

Also since we're mentioning The Answer and you skipped it, I'm curious if you saw the plot developments it added?

I always dug the gradual ramp-up of Interstice of Time. A nice contrast to a lot of the bombast present in other parts of the P3 soundtrack.
