I just wanted to know which video games themes or songs you guys love or hate. The kind of songs that stay in your mind for weeks or even months after playing, for good or bad reasons. Maybe you even tried to learn them on guitar ?

On my side, there is only two games : The Witcher 3 and Sang-Froid. These games have such a good soundtrack that I keep listening to these every month since I've played.

And I even began learning a few songs from both games : The Wolven Storm, Kaer Morhen, Slopes of Blessure, Richard's Forest, Les Deux Vendredis ...



What are yours ?

One of my all time favorite video game songs that always brings back memories and nostalgia is the Morrowind Theme Song. I still get it stuck in my head to this day, So relaxing and so good!


And if you go the complete opposite route, you get this one from the DOOM soundtrack. It pumps me up so bad (the whole OST does) I listen to this on an off (usually the whole game soundtrack)

    This is the perfect time to share this! Risk of Rain 2 just had a patch update yesterday with a new level and songs. The game has my favorite soundtrack. The artist is Chris Christodoulou and puts everything on YouTube. Frequently he includes an OD guitar over synth and I love the combo so much.

    Kai I actually miss wow. I played that game for 6 years endlessly. My disc ended up getting multiple top 100 ranks and a few top 10. By the time I got really good they changed the entire spec to dps to heal and I just hated it. That's not a healer that's a dps for weak raid groups lol

    Now the game is just too casual. But man I could listen to their music for DAYS. The kind of approach I took to that game is exactly what I'm trying to accomplish here. Easy to do when you remember the feeling that drive gives you. You know you gotta keep pushing yourself until you feel that same drive here too. I'm sure everyone knows that I mean there.

    9.45 into my storm peaks video. Is the best melody in the game. I'd fly to that area just to hear the violins go.

    @Calvin Phillips I'd like to work on doing a Pokemon cover because they're easier haha.

    But I absolutely understand the feeling. I last played about 3 years ago now in Legion. That expansion felt more like what the players deserved 2 expansions prior. But unlike the old days you can't devote yourself to a character. It feels like you have to keep multiple around for whatever flavor of the month was in style. And they messed up with the new Dalaran. The music is just not the same. At the end of it I'd just go back to the old one and sit listening to the music. I've thought about playing Classic, but getting older has introduced me to more things in the physical world than to sit every day on a game.

    Activision ruined blizzard. I have high Hope's for d4 but I'm also not expecting much more then another map copycat.they better go a different route with d4. Make it mmo based. People would play.

    I started in lich king. Near the end tho. I missed the actual raid. I did the levels but honestly I didn't know the game. I sycked until I was legit called out in vent on it. I felt so embarrassed. Didn't even know what a hit cap was so I reformed everything from hit. My hit was like 7% when you needed 15 for 100% hit. (Doesn't that sound dumb lol). I then looked my shit up and started to dig.into healing on my priest. I tried holy. But I LOVED disc. I could do everything myself. Mana co serving was hard to learn but once i figured that out I could solo healing 25m in early epics lol. I made fully geared priests look like they were in greens. I had a hot head and an ego tho and it cost me guild spots. Cocky as fuck.

    I shined biggest in MOP and cataclysm. Spirit shell on a 1min CD meant I never had to pop CDs. That's where all my ranks came into play. I remember doing lei shen with a guild. They benched me for 3 hours and couldn't break 24% with the disc they had. (The gms wife... ). Finally they brought me in. First pull...... 3%. We killed it 5 pulls later and I ranked 32nd disc. That's my wow high light. My rank never stood the whole expac due to gear but progression ranks are where they are at.

    I can't believe I didn't treat guitar the same way until I came here. THE POTENTIAL.
