there is a song called ZARATHUSTRA in the BB sound files which sounds like it belongs in 2001 space odyssey

[Chuck_Norris]

'Kay.

[Weeaboolits]

I think that's the song's proper title, don't quote me on that though.

[TalHex]

really? still what is 2001 space odyssey doing in my PSO >D

[beatrixkiddo]

Spoilers: 2001: A Space Oddysey did not create the song.

It's called "Also Sprach Zarathustra", german for "Thus Spoke Zarathustra".

[TalHex]

*recognition marks* holy shit! that is the title of xenosaga ep III, i'm an idiot, i never even noticed that before now...

I think I may also have heard of some obscure book by a German dude with the same title. Funny coincidence.

Yeah, he wrote it after he played Xenosaga III, didn't you know?

[Sord]

yeah, classical and romantic music is pretty damn common in video games guys (though baroque usually gets the shaft.) Way to go on taking forever on the obvious :disapprove:

[Weeaboolits]

I thought it was kinda funny seeing it in there too, though, I can't imagine where the hell they would have used it.

[TalHex]

thats just what i'm curious about, i've never heard it in game, i'm wondering if it is a file left over from beta or alpha stages of development

[Nitro Vordex]

It might be in a quest or event that none of us played.

Or, you might have gotten it from the S***A***** mod. At the startup screen I mean.

[Weeaboolits]

Most likely a quest, but really, I can't think of a fitting place to use it.

[TalHex]

maybe an episode 4 quest?

[Sord]

it's probably some remixed version, not exactly like the original

[TalHex]

probably, but even as a remix i still can't see where it fits into PSO... maybe it was for the original opening sequence of the game instead of the one they use now

[Weeaboolits]

I listened to it before from the sound folder, it's pretty spot-on, if memory serves.

[TalHex]

wouldn't they have to pay certain rights to use an already existing song? why would sega pay for something yet not use it...

[Weeaboolits]

I'm fairly sure it's a classical score, like Sord said, and as such, no one holds the rights to it, so it's free domain, anyone can use it, you just have to make your own recording of it because you'd have to pay for someones performance of it, but the score itself would be free.

[TalHex]

still that would mean that sega would have to pay something for it considering someone has to play it, so why didn't they use it? i guess we will never understand sega

[CrimsomWolf]

'Cause they're greedy bastards

[Weeaboolits]

still that would mean that sega would have to pay something for it considering someone has to play it, so why didn't they use it? i guess we will never understand segaThey could, you know, have the people they're paying to do the rest of the game's music do it.

[TalHex]

they probably got a discount when they purchased the music in mass XD

[Weeaboolits]

They may have done it as an arrangement, in which case it'd be only one person making it. It was just the fanfare too, a low tempo 2 minute track wouldn't be difficult to arrange.

I died a little inside today!

I died a little inside today!

I'M ALREADY DEAD ON THE INSIDE

[Weeaboolits]

I didn't watch it.

I used judgment. :)

*watches columns of light bombard the area only for none of them to actually make contact.* :(

Does anyone actually read Nietzsche, or just the cliff notes in order to reference him?

[Weeaboolits]

Does anyone actually read Nietzsche, or just the cliff notes in order to reference him?Or maybe just the title? I only knew the musical score, I only heard of the book today while checking to see if I had the title right.
