With that in mind, we asked our panel of critics to name their favorite film score of the 21st Century.
ETERNAL SONATA OST REDDIT MOVIE
It’s just the latest indication that we’re living in a fascinating, vibrant time for movie music, and December boasts a number of films that will only add more fuel to that fire. Last Friday saw the release of Garth Davis’ “Lion,” the musical score for which is the gorgeous result of a collaboration between two giants of the neo-classical movement, Dustin O’Halloran and Hauschka. (The answer to the second, “What is the best film in theaters right now?”, can be found at the end of this post.)
ETERNAL SONATA OST REDDIT TV
It aged very well.Every week, IndieWire asks a select handful of film and TV critics two questions and publishes the results on Monday.
The game looks very, very pretty with its anime style (although this is an old game from 2008 on the PS3). So you have to grind the character level up of a secondary character to make it through the boss fight, although you don't really want to use him. Characters do only level up while you use them. But it also does something which I really hate in an RPG: I takes away some characters from your party before mandatory boss fights. This keeps it very challenging although the basic of fights do not vary at all throughout the whole game. In the last level you have 0 thinking time. For example: At the start you x seconds thinking time before the real-time battle begins.
Also with game progression the system is made harder through a party level. You have light and dark skills and the area you are fight in has light and dark spots where you only can use either of your skills. The fighting system is pretty cool in my opinion. You hope that the boss will not constantly use his strongest skill that can drain the health of your party very quickly and you can't heal yourself out if it. There is some kind of luck involved in that. At some point you will make it after 3 or 5 retries. (actually I like that a lot, grinding with a goal :)). He wipes the floor again with your party. You come back with strong confidence: "Haha sucker, we are strong now. You then grind a lot, maybe 2 or 3 levels +. You come to a boss and he wipes the floor with party. Some bosses are very easy, some are super hard. The game requires heavy grind (at least with my party) and boss fights are not good balanced. At least it never gets unfair, save points are fairly placed throughout all of the dungeons. Although the areas are very diverse the mechanic wears off at the end of the game. Going side-paths is rewarded with the genre typically loot. You progress through different areas and need to find you way through different kinds of dungeons. You know if this happens that you are in deep trouble (story-wise :) Gameplay-wise it is basically a dungeon crawler (in the very broad sense).
The game also the most evil kind of anime villain: The one where the camera only show the (anime) eyes at very close range (Sephiroth style). Between chapters you learn about the real life of Chopin, how he needed to escape from Poland and the state of mind he was in when he composed some of his pieces. It gets quite philosophical in some points. As almost always in a JRPG the story is quite melodramatic, but it touches some very serious topics like: suicide, death in general and power. The story is based around the death of Frédéric Chopin and mixes Fantasy with the real life of Chopin. A very unique JRPG with some minor flaws.
