Greetings!
This thread is all about reminiscing old rpg/mmorpg music/nongamebutrpgish or if you can't think of any, then you can name present ones. Share music that you think has the best rpgish feeling to it! Every each one of us has different taste so it'll be interesting to see how they vary and I personally like gaming/soundtrack music a lot, of course if its good in my opinion.
Games that has left the most nostalgic and best feeling for me are: Ashen Empires and Warcraft II. Which is why I will share music from those games.
Ashen Empires
One of my first mmorpgs along with Runescape. It exists even now and has a lot what is missing in mmorpgs these days, I would play it if it were managed better nowadays. (Left to die) :/
The Silvest Theme:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GtUUKC-xxI
This has so much rpgish feeling to it that I've have even thought of adding it as theme to my custom project (in a city). RECOMMEND TO LISTEN!
Wilderness Theme:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GtUUKC-xxI
This song is perfect for adventuring in the Wilderness, it gives of very good adventurous feeling in my opinion.
Warcraft II
Game of my childhood, just like Warcraft I. But, I have much more memories of Warcraft II. Which probably the biggest reason I am into WoW.
Human Campaign 02:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vGnzKki5aA
To me it expresses heroic and proud human race that will not waver even against the brutal orcs despite the difficulties they face, especially at every "chorus".
Orc Campaign 03:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6JaVCG4jRn0
1:39 Starts the best part of this song, its just awesome.
Main Menu Theme
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUF12vUSlUQ
This theme has very grand and powerish feeling to it and they have used a lot of nice instruments if you listen, all the bells and stuff.
Special Mention from present music:
Two Steps From Hell
I love this company, they produce awesome game/movie music. They are a lot more "grand" and "epic" compared to the previous, which might be too much at a times, but sometimes awesome. Here is few examples that are my favorite:
Archangel
www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJ-QLl5qjLg
As name would suggest, you could believe that something holy and mighty is coming to face something.
Strength of a Thousand Men(Awesome for trailer use, recommend )
www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJ-QLl5qjLg
There is so much going on this. its just epic.
The Black Blade
www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJ-QLl5qjLg
You can hear in this song that something very epic is coming!
Those are from me, what are yours?
