Tales Series: Summoning of Spirits - History

[KyleJCrb]

A. Thank you for your support. :)

B. Our current site is here (http://kngi.org/talesproject/). It will change exponentially for the release. It looks like the link to Beyond Absentminded is currently broken on that site. I'll look into it, but for now, you can still grab it right here (http://www.kngi.org/talesproject/songs/HaleBopp-BeyondAbsentminded(BeAbsentminded).mp3). And of course djp's track is right here at OCR.

C. Absolutely, we made banners (http://kngi.org/talesproject/banners.html) specifically for that purpose and suggest anyone who wants to promote the project to use them.

All the Bonus Tracks are broken actually, except for Usa's "Love Song."

[Goosemeister]

Thanks, guys! I'm definitely liking both of the bonus tracks, and given that I still haven't even heard any of the Symphonia stuff yet, this is going to be awesome. And I guess I'll show my support and put one of those banners in my sig, too, at least for now. It beats having a blank sig.

[KyleJCrb]

Well, I'll be damned. I wasn't expecting DQD out so soon...

Welp, looks like we're on point! Let's see what we can do.

[Kureejii Lea]

Well, I'll be damned. I wasn't expecting DQD out so soon...

I was just wondering about that today (well, yesterday now)...

Okay, let's make sure we've got everything covered, guys.

[SephAguraki]

LOL FINALLY IT COMES!

I've been waiting forever and 3 months... :c

[Liontamer]

Brining this idea back:

Are any contributors willing to try and arrange a track from the Tales of Symphonia: Knight of Ratatosk Original Soundtrack (http://vgmdb.net/db/albums.php?id=8667). We can attempt to procure said soundtrack. ReMixing from this would specifically be in anticipation of the game coming out soon in North America.

Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World comes out in the States on 11/18, like I mentioned before. Plenty of time to do something by that date, plus that doesn't have to be the release date.

Kyle/Lea, up for it?

[KyleJCrb]

An interesting proposal, Larry. I am procuring said soundtrack as we speak, but I honestly can't say for sure. It would be good to add to the anticipation of the game, though. We shell sea.

[prophetik]

i might be convinced to do something...kyle, tell me what's worth listening to.

Hey, I'm willing to give it a shot. Had to do this project's remix in about a week and a half anyway :D

EDIT: Wow, that is a long soundtrack...

[KyleJCrb]

Don't worry, 90% of the soundtrack seems to be ripped from the original Symphonia anyway (and there's even a few Phantasia tracks around). :razz: I'll see what's good, though.

Here's a ridiculous fact: The soundtrack doesn't have Fighting of the Spirit. Seriously, Namco. You fucked up on that one.

And no Fatalize, either.

Well, if there are any good original ones, I'm up for that. But yeah, rehashes aren't really worth it.

[Kureejii Lea]

Kinda surprising since they at least used the Symphonia version of FotS on the early trailers.

Well, I'll give it a listen, see if something stands out especially...

[Dhsu]

We shell sea.
You are the worst.

[KyleJCrb]

You are the worst.

Hurrrrrrrr

[Liontamer]

Well, if there are any good original ones, I'm up for that. But yeah, rehashes aren't really worth it.

Yeah, obviously avoiding any covers in this new soundtrack. Hope Kyle finds some good ones!

[The Joker]

Well, if there are any good original ones, I'm up for that. But yeah, rehashes aren't really worth it.

What he said!

[Doulifée]

Keep up the good works guys. I was looking on your website what's up, after the release of DQD, Tales Sos is the next project i'm waiting for.

[Monobrow]

Why not do like... ten select songs from that game, maybe as a bonus CD... I mean... It would suck to prolong this any longer... Some people have been waiting so long and are impatient and gonna bitch you out haha, but if you are really gonna do this... Do like 10 tracks... Select the worthy ones instead of making people go rhrough them, and let's get started on it NOW.

Haha... I mean by all means if you want me to try another track I will, but I am about as reliable as a something really not reiable (I suck at metaphors)

[Kureejii Lea]

Oh god, we aren't doing anything as massive as ten more tracks.

We've already got a move on on this. We'll see how things play out. This won't prolong things, however. If they're not done, they're cut.

[SephAguraki]

Here's a ridiculous fact: The soundtrack doesn't have Fighting of the Spirit. Seriously, Namco. You fucked up on that one.

And no Fatalize, either.

There's probably a good explanation for Fighting of the Spirit, such as the spirits have all been fought and still have a pact with Sheena? (Only speculation. Song also plays in Phantasia the same way as in Symphonia)

Now a lack of Fatalize is a fuck up. :/

[Aninymouse]

zomg guys. I think I've only been waiting one year for this (?), but news that this might actually be released before too long is bitchin'!

Congrats, guys!

[Monobrow]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh CelloZ! :U :o :( :V

[KyleJCrb]

Tell that bastid to hurry the fluck up!

By the way, this (http://vgmdb.net/album/9318) came to my knowledge yesterday, and AGAIN Fighting of the Spirit is missing! Who the hell is putting these things together? Rest assured we will not disappoint Tales fans by not arranging the battle themes everyone actually wants to hear. Hopefully Namco and Sakuraba can redeem themselves when this (http://vgmdb.net/album/9767) gets released next month.

[SephAguraki]

Awww, Tales of Innocence's battle music isn't on there. I kind of liked that one... :c

Wait a minute...they put Tempest's battle music...IT'S A FREAKING ESCORT TITLE, EVERYTHING ELSE IS MOTHERSHIP! D< Bad Namco and Sakuraba. Bad. Although, he didn't compose the music to it, either...

[KyleJCrb]

I'm disappointed, mostly. The Arrow Was Shot is awesome, but it's basically just an extended version of the original. Same with The Edge of a Decision, and in fact, all of the songs don't get arranged much outside of some wanky Sakuraba-style keyboard solos. Full Force(which wasn't very good to begin with, mind) is meh, and Like a Glint of Light is not very good at all. Take Up The Cross is okay, but PriZm did it better for us. It's not a bad album, but I think SoS has done a better job in the battle theme department. :razz:

[SephAguraki]

I expect to hear it soon. o: Although, if Sakuraba had done a more Baten Kaitos style or Eternal Sonata style, the soundtrack might have been better.

EDIT: I'm a sucker for rehash-esque music... :c

[KyleJCrb]

The problem isn't really that they aren't arranged: It's that the instrumentation is practically the same as the originals. Almost nothing is different. It kinda sucks.

[prophetik]

how long did i have for that thing, kyle?

[KyleJCrb]

Choose one and work on it as quickly as possible. Though don't forget you have two other songs, too. :razz:

[prophetik]

bullshit, those are done! DONE, I SAY!

actually, since i don't have a graphics card (evga step-up ftw, 9800gtx+ for 50$) atm, it'll have to wait at least a week =)

[Dhsu]

9800gtx+ for 50$
WHERE!!!!!

[KyleJCrb]

WHERE!!!!!

eVGA's Step-Up program, let's you upgrade your current eVGA video card for a new one at a reduced price. Sadly, my 7950GT is far too old to use for it.

[SephAguraki]

Well damn, I wish I had an eVGA video card...strangely, though, my 8500GT's box says it has 256MB video ram, where my computer reads it at 512MB...

in during derailment?

[prophetik]

eVGA's Step-Up program, let's you upgrade your current eVGA video card for a new one at a reduced price. Sadly, my 7950GT is far too old to use for it.

lol, if you had it registered originally, they were running a deal for their 9th birthday where ANYONE could to a stepup. 7950gt's were getting like almost as much as my 9600gt, because it's how much you paid when you bought it all those years ago.

[Nutritious]

Pretty big update posted for my ToS: Knight/Dawn of whatever track. Making fast progress.

[KyleJCrb]

We's SOOOOO CLOSE! Step-Up, Prophet Tell those bastards a eVGA that there's a remix project to be finished!

[Aninymouse]

"Fuck yes," is all I can manage at this point.

Bring it on, people.

[prophetik]

We's SOOOOO CLOSE! Step-Up, Prophet Tell those bastards a eVGA that there's a remix project to be finished!

scheduled for signature delivery on the 11th. soon! at least, assuming this isn't one of the 65nm models that phails on boot.

[Darkflamewolf]

Does that mean tomorrow release? Or did I misunderstand the above post?

[OA]

it means that is when prophet gets his video card that will of course be broken as are all of the components he seems to buy. :P

[KyleJCrb]

Does that mean tomorrow release?

Not even close.

[Hemophiliac]

Yes you misunderstood him, he's getting his video card tomorrow.

[SephAguraki]

Guys, I'm getting in a really Tales-y mood. Is this dangerous?

[pu_freak]

Always....

Quickly, go buy Vesperia!

[Nutritious]

Track is about 80% done, check forums :)

[prophetik]

hah, i'm on my own computer! the 9800gtx+ is a damn big card - almost didn't fit - but it's here, and i'm back to working on music. i'm off tomorrow, so i should be able to update then.

[SephAguraki]

Always....

Quickly, go buy Vesperia!


AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...when it comes out for PC. :\

I think Dawn of the New World might be decent...until Hearts makes its way here...

[Aninymouse]

Vesperia is actually pretty good.

Groundbreaking? No. Looks and sounds pretty, though. Nice party of characters.

[SephAguraki]

I don't care if the game is groundbreaking or not. It has fast-paced battles and Motoi Sakuraba's music. I'll play it.

[Broken]

Tales of Phantasia is probably the closest the series ever came to ground-breaking

-"voice acting" on the snes
-anime-style sprites which were quite meaty
-COOKING! <3
-other stuff that I can't call to mind at the moment
-wikipedia it

Doesn't make any of the other games any less fun, but they are generally formulaic to say the least.

edit: Oh, yeah, this project is coming out tomorrow or something, right?

[Zombie]

I am so exited for this. Haven't played phantasia, but symphonia was awesome. Exited!

[KyleJCrb]

Rumors that this is releasing tomorrow have been greatly exaggerated.

[Sixto]

I heard you guys have some sort of Tales of Phantasia/Symphonia remix project.

[SephAguraki]

I heard you guys have some sort of Tales of Phantasia/Symphonia remix project.


Well I heard that these guys like Mudkips.

[KyleJCrb]

I heard you guys have some sort of Tales of Phantasia/Symphonia remix project.

What? There is no such thing.

[pu_freak]

Perhaps we should start one

[SephAguraki]

Don't remix Fatalize or Fighting of the Spirit. No one likes those songs.

[Lunarfall]

Dibs playing triangle and cowbell in every single remix. It will add flair.

(Grr, I wanna here the [song hidden] remix to make sure my remix of it is completely different. -_- Though based on the people who worked on it, I'm sure it will be...)

[SephAguraki]

Okay, I remember a few pages back Kyle was talking about how Fatalize and Fighting of the Spirit weren't on the Tales of Series Battle Arrange Tracks album, and he was hoping they were on the Piano Arrange album. The track list says they're not... /emo

EDIT: My bad, he was just saying Fighting of the Spirit wasn't on there.

Well, I wouldn't have minded Fatalize.

But yes, another disappointment (http://vgmdb.net/album/9767).

[Sixto]

This is a Greek tragedy!

[Kureejii Lea]

Don't remix Fatalize or Fighting of the Spirit. No one likes those songs.

Okay. No Fatalize or FotS in any form.

More sleep jingles it is!

Subscribing

[prophetik]

you know, there's a button for that if you don't want to waste a post...

[kc7zzv]

Thanks. I would have sworn there wasn't one, but I found it this time.

[KyleJCrb]

Don't worry, we never post anything interesting anyway.

[Aninymouse]

ba-dum-tsh.

(Obligatory "Is it done yet?" post.)

[KyleJCrb]

(Obligatory "Is it done yet?" post.)

Pointless to be asking such a question when the answer is obvious based on the fact that there are no links or announcements regarding a release yet.

[The Joker]

What Kyle means is, it probably is, but you'll never know, until we tell you, that is. Which I may or may not have just done, depending on how you look at it.

[SephAguraki]

Wait, you guys were working on a remix project? I thought this was a fanfic. :cry:

[Dhsu]

Oh don't worry, Kureejii is working on some hot Kratos x Genis art as we speak.

[Lunarfall]

Pointless to be asking such a question when the answer is obvious based on the fact that there are no links or announcements regarding a release yet.I was just kidding. I know you guys are probably sick of being asked that. :razz:

Don't spoil what I've got in the works for the Grand Cardinals, okay?

[Lunarfall]

Now I just lost a couple IQ points because of this. :(

[KyleJCrb]

That's okay. I'm well into the negatives by now.

[Dhsu]

I love you guys.

[Lunarfall]

That's okay. I'm well into the negatives by now.I'm sure I will be joining you if this keeps up. :razz:

[KyleJCrb]

Big update today on my track. Very very close to being done, just needs some tweaks. Check it out.

[KyleJCrb]

Nutritious' song is HAWT. I think it will be enjoyed by many.

[Nohbody]

hey sweet, i just started playing ToP yesterday. This should be alright eh?

[SephAguraki]

I JUST looked at the website for this project...

I feel sad and stupid now... >:

EDIT: Haha, AWESOME WIPs for Iselia, Usa. I really can't wait for the final product now... /emo

[OA]

I want to remix the opening to Vesperia; not in the project scope though. ;_;

I will cheer you all on from the sidelines, however!

[SephAguraki]

Remix it, OCR process I don't know about how it works, ????, profit?

[KyleJCrb]

Do it anyway! We have special extras planned and a Tales-related track would certainly fit in.

[Lunarfall]

Grr, I wan't a 360 so I can play Vesperia. :puppyeyes:

I should get a copy of Vesperia now and wait until 360s are like $100. Would be a hell of a wait though.

I don't have a PS2 yet and I want Abyss and Legendia. Dunno if that's going to happen any time soon...

EDIT: So...I was going over the track list for the project...and I saw this:

Reuben Kee - Forest of the Treant (My Secret Forest) *COMPRETE*

"COMPRETE"...lol engrish

[SargeSmash]

I wouldn't even have a 360 if it weren't for having to save for a vehicle for two years, and then get something substantially cheaper, which freed me, among other things, to splurge on an HDTV and use the subsequent gift card on a 360. :D

But yeah, Vesperia is awesome. My brother is about 30 hours in. So you know what that means... cue Red Ring of Death! 'tis okay, had a replacement plan from Best Buy, and managed to upgrade to an Elite in the process. And get the save data. :)

I'm really looking forward to the completion of this project, I know you guys and gals have worked hard on this for a long time. All us non-musical types really appreciate it.

[Sir_NutS]

This still going?

[pu_freak]

nope (10char)

[KyleJCrb]

This still going?

Nah, we quit like two years ago.

[Sir_NutS]

BTW take me off the hosting list, I haven't renewed my webspace in like 2 years, lol.

[The Joker]

So, I heard you like bulbasaurs? Well, if you do, you kinda scare me. I also heard there is a new wip in the wip board over at the project thread for the project... over there.

[KyleJCrb]

I apologize for my lack of activity. I'm training for a new job and have been pretty wiped out these past few weeks, but I am at least watching this thread and the forums. I've been trying to get in touch with djp, but I have no idea what, if anything, is going on with the website. I'm not sure we'll be hitting our target release date, but we will see. Larry, if you can let djp know that I'm waiting to hear from him on the site (I've emailed him several times so far), I'd appreciate it.

[Nutritious]

So I moved, and also gave Seb some time to do some stuff before he finished last cello part. I have Vista now running on this computer with my old hard drive, therefore most of my shit I have the fun time of reorganizing and reinstalling.

Will be doing that this week and will hopefully be finished real soon. Sorry for the delay! Moving across the country can do that I guess.

[DJMetal]

So I just looked at the first page of this thread, and there's only 1 song remaining! I'm so excited! Oh, I know "it's out when it's out"...BUT I'M STILL SO EXCITED!

[The Joker]

Actually, we decided to do the entire OST for Ratatosk. So, yeah, whenever we get through with all 30+ tracks for that, we're golden!

P.S. i jus kidding!

That and so I can, you know, find out what happens after Tales of Symphonia. Although, I seriously doubt it won't be as awesome a game as the other Tales for the lack of an overworld...I like overworld music...

I don't play enough creepy games. D8 Creepiest games I've played are the Half-Life 2 games.

[DeathShadow]

I think before you guys release the album, you should try to squeeze in tracks from the other tales games.

[The Joker]

We probaby did, & we're probably finished. But, I doubt it.

[Kureejii Lea]

I think before you guys release the album, you should try to squeeze in tracks from the other tales games.

These ones are actually related to each other. Nothing's stopping anyone else from doing other Tales tracks themselves.

[Goosemeister]

So, it was my understanding that this project would be released in the same general ballpark as Dawn of the New World (whose official release date was today). Am I then reasonable in hoping that this project will be released by the end of the month given that you are done (or so it appears)? There haven't been more unexpected delays, have there? It's a little hard to tell for sure given both your site and this thread seem less than booming with activity.

Oh, and congrats on the presumably good work. I'm going to be the first (or am I?) to congratulate you since I'm assuming it's going to be great before I hear it (makes it easier for me). I'm pretty excited about DotNW, and the release of this project is a healthy and delicious dose of icing on that cake for me (and not the cheap kind that they give you in little cups at Burger King).

[KyleJCrb]

I don't know when this will be out, but I can say release it a ways out. The music is practically done, but djpretzel has been quiet on the website front for several months now, so I'm almost tempted to move on without him and find someone else to do the site (or do it myself, although I think this project deserves more than some shit cobbled together with old-style HTML).

I would like to see the project out by the end of the month, but...

[Broken]

So it coming out tomorrow......?

Hay, that's AWESOME MAN!

I would like to see the project out by the end of the month, but...I have XHTML and some JS experience, and I would definitely open for doing this, as I no longer do JS code modifications for message boards. What would you need done?

That can be the version that takes place 100 years in the past. Hahaha~

[KyleJCrb]

Well, as you may have realized, Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World hit North America yesterday. While we haven't managed to coincide our release with the game (we can still possibly hit the EU release date, though!), I'm hoping we can have this out relatively soon. In the meantime, I've decided to give a little teaser of what is probably one of the most amazing songs on this project: Sixto and Dhsu's version of Fighting of the Spirit: The Unholy Wars (http://kngi.org/talesproject/temp/ThUnholyWarsPreview.mp3). Enjoy!

[Aninymouse]

Rockin'.

It's been a long, long time, but I still can't wait for this to be released.

[Incronaut]

cant wait. i want to hear what the sheena remix is made of

[KyleJCrb]

It is made of win and awesome.

Done, and I wish to cry that the project hasn't been released yet.

[Sixto]

That's not me!

[Dhsu]

Yeah that's all me. The only thing Sixto did on the mix was a dinky little piano intro. :tomatoface:

EVERYTHING lol. Got any sample sites you've worked on?

[Kureejii Lea]

Yeah that's all me. The only thing Sixto did on the mix was a dinky little piano intro. :tomatoface:

Okay, then how about another special preview that does show more of Sixto's part... and clips from about eight other tracks?

[KyleJCrb]

OA is now a member of the SoS team, and will be creating a sweet website for us. Welcome, OA!

[SephAguraki]

Okay, then how about another special preview that does show more of Sixto's part... and clips from about eight other tracks?

Watching/listening to that only made me realize that I still need to buy the Tales of Phantasia Animation...

I couldn't even recognize any of the songs except for Fighting of the Spirit... 8[

[Aninymouse]

Totally agree. Raine's Theme also stands out, and Zelos' Theme is really badass as well.

[KyleJCrb]

I figured the associated imagery made it obvious...

[SephAguraki]

I figured the associated imagery made it obvious...

Well, I DID recognize Sheena's theme...

But I guess I need to go and listen to ToS's and ToP's soundtracks again...

[SnappleMan]

So cmon, release this shit. it's been over three fucking years already... :(

[big giant circles]

lol, for real. You're waiting on one dude? Tell 'em to get their shite together or boot them already. :tomatoface:

[Dhsu]

No, we have to beat Around the World for longest project ever. It's a matter of pride now.

[KyleJCrb]

lol, for real. You're waiting on one dude? Tell 'em to get their shite together or boot them already. :tomatoface:

Not really waiting on one person (I know she'll be done when it's time): Just waiting on getting a website together, which is happening now with OA on board. Once that's ready to go, this thing will be out.

[The Joker]

Oh shizz... i betta hurry!

[Indrik]

Alternatively, you could add tracks from ToS 2 and make the wait even LONGER! :-o It's just being thorough after all. Same world and what have you.

[KyleJCrb]

For that matter, there could be music from Tales of the World: Summoner's Lineage.

lol obscure tales games no one (in America) has heard of

[prophetik]

shite

definitive proof that bgc is actually avaris.

[Murmeli Walan]

No, we have to beat Around the World for longest project ever. It's a matter of pride now.

Oh? I thought you guys were waiting until Mustin and the Bad Dudes released a Tales album out of nowhere and totally deflate this one.

[KyleJCrb]

Oh? I thought you guys were waiting until Mustin and the Bad Dudes released a Tales album out of nowhere and totally deflate this one.

Bitter much?

[Sixto]

I don't get it.

[Incronaut]

is it out yet?

[pu_freak]

yes it is.

[KyleJCrb]

It's on my hard drive, at least.

[Murmeli Walan]

Bitter much?

Not really, but I just can't pass up a good snarky comment.

[SephAguraki]

It's on my hard drive, at least.

How much to buy that hard drive off of you?

[prophetik]

It Takes More Than Nine Terabytes To Get Into Mordor

[DJMetal]

yes it is.

No way. You're such a liar. It's a good thing I got a pirated copy of this project from a Hong Kong DVD dealer way back when I did. Suckers!

[The Joker]

So... your saying you got ripped off? Cause we barely finished this thing last month... ooop!

I kidd I kidd. But really folks, the project will kick copius amounts of firm round buns, as well as flabby, wrinkly ones as well!

[KyleJCrb]

In serious business:

The music side of this project is practically finished. I need everyone to go through the tracklist on the first page of this thread (http://www.ocremix.org/forums/showthread.php?t=2937) and make sure all of the songs are accounted for. With so many tracks, this isn't easy to keep track of, so make sure I haven't overlooked anything.

Also, my mirrors list is a bit outdated. Please confirm with me if you are on the list and still able to host the project. We will also additional need HTTP hosting mirrors. Please let me know if you have about 500-600 megs of hosting space available and good bandwidth. Trust me: It WILL get used.

[pu_freak]

My Vigorous Town remix is missing on the list

[SnappleMan]

My Vigorous Town remix is missing on the list

Take the hint... ;)

[KyleJCrb]

It's a bonus track, remember?

[The Joker]

Your face is a... bonus track?

[Nutritious]

My "Now Isn't the Time" mix isn't on there, though it may also be a bonus track since it's from ToS2.

[KyleJCrb]

Four discs?!

Itz Hueg Mang

[SephAguraki]

Four discs?!

True to the more recent Tales soundtracks. 8o

[Brookman5]

Four discs?!
Of Tales awesomeness.

Remember, we're covering two related games (actually, technically three) here.

If I ever do another project (which isn't very likely), it'll be one of three things: F-Zero, Metal Slug, or Daytona USA. No more of this RPG crap. :razz:

[SephAguraki]

Awww, that's mean. But I DO love me some Big Blue...good luck with any future projects, then. :grin:

[prophetik]

someone wanted to do a golden sun remix project and asked me to help, and then dropped off the face of the earth.

[Dhsu]

Remember, we're covering two related games (actually, technically three) here.
VotL had 4 discs of music and that was only one game. :< Although that is actually kinda crazy because the original soundtrack only had 3.

If you take all of the extra bonus stuff we have, you could get another disc out of it...

That would be awesome if you did make a bonus cd.

[KyleJCrb]

That would be awesome if you did make a bonus cd.

Well, we're going to be releasing a lot of bonus material too, so you can make your own CD with that if you want. :-P

[Aninymouse]

This is beastly.

[Dunther]

Seems I must hurry to start (and beat) Tales of Phantasia and Tales of Symphonia :P

[DJMetal]

Holy cow my excitement for this project is rebuilding! Holy crap! Woo!! You guys rule!

[KyleJCrb]

Wait until you guys see the website. It's looking absolutely remarkable.

[Dhsu]

Hahaha, you sound like some old British dude or something. Our project is coming along swimmingly, the site is absolutely delightful!

[KyleJCrb]

Also, I love Afternoon Tea with Snappleman's Mom. Terranigma is awesome.

I sent out a bunch of PM spam for bios and pics. We really need those items for the website, so please make sure you send them.

[Rexy]

Stuff sent.
Just looked at the track list and everything is shaping up to be an awesome project. One question though - how the HELL did you get Protricity, the most hated man on OCR, doing some stuff for you? :O

Now I have a reason to check out this project thingy.

hooooooooooooly crap wat

I'm thinking of burning this and using it as a custom soundtrack for Vesperia! ...you can do that kind of thing, right?

i don't hate prot :D


also we should take a moment to appreciate Lea for her awesome work done, you all seen bits and pieces of the awesome she did for this project.

thanks Leah.

The website is incredibly cool, thanks to her work.

i'll second that too kyle, i got to see a little of it...hehe

:D

[Kureejii Lea]

Aw, thank you.

[The Joker]

I thanked her months ago, so, yeah, I'll do it again. You're my internets loves Lea*!









*Which means you're my fren!

[Aninymouse]

Uh, I dunno. Does Vesperia use custom soundtracks?

Honestly, I have no clue and I have 60 some hours in on that game.

[Dhsu]

I think every 360 game supports custom soundtracks out of the box. Just fire up a playlist and it should keep playing when you start the game. NXE probably actually even let you do this in-game.

[Monobrow]

Blame Monobrow. :-P Prot's doing the drumwork for that track.

Don't ask me why, he just wanted to do it out of the blue so I let him.

Only took him a couple days, when he had the actual time to work on it. So it's not like OMG EPIC DETAIL FOREVER! But I like it.

Oh yeah btw, done.

[SephAguraki]

Completely unrelated and aimed at those living in the US...

HAPPY THANKSGIVING, GUYS!

(This is the part where we clink glasses together, and the project is magically released)

thought that said magnetically released, and i wasn't really sure what you were talking about.

Glad to hear everything is (finally!) wrapping up! I cant wait!

Don't let the activity fool you. We're still several years away from release.

Kyle, now you're just being mean.

Middle-Aselia Democracy.

Yeah, there's a lot to fear from a guy who can have his ass handed to him by kids, teens, and a dog.

[KyleJCrb]

Dhaos was a pussy. Mithos was too, but since he was a kid I guess it can be forgiven.

At least Dhaos got warranted a cameo in Tales of Eternia as Sekundes. 8[

[Chris8282]

Sorry for any anger this might cause, but, I have a question :)

Last I heard this was to be released a few months ago but got pushed back because of something about hyping the Doom 2 project (bleh) instead of this. Wasn't this supposed to follow soon after that? What happened?

[KyleJCrb]

Music is done, website is currently in production and should be complete soon. It's taken some more time than expected, but we're close!

[prophetik]

I'M SO ANGRY

well, it got pushed back to allow the normal amount of time after doom that any project gets. then ssf2thd came out, and that's taking up the limelight atm.

just continue to wait =)

[Dhsu]

It's a conspiracy. >:[

[OA]

hay guyz, FF4 is gonna come out next week!

Sorry if no one told you. ;-)
