If you go back to the 5th/6th gen, almost every game regardless of the genre had an iconic as fuck song (of course zoomers don't know a single one) that was a big part of the game's identity.youtube.com/watch?v=uAcURc-EMiIyoutube.com/watch?v=7hitX3rHHv8youtube.com/watch?v=ywAg5UJGvfsyoutube.com/watch?v=Ui_BbVL8mt8youtube.com/watch?v=B1nDzB1P8GMyoutube.com/watch?v=GCj-I4LoqtQyoutube.com/watch?v=xti_6Bzpa8A
Fist Bump https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XI97jY3FZ9Q and Ryuusei no Bifrost https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlUwaarTZXc are iconic, I'll die on that hill.I won't deny that it was more common during those generations but there are 7th and 8th gen games with iconic songs or main themes that are like ''oh yeah, it's the song in that game''.
>>724969912>Fist Bump>Ryuusei no Bifrostliterally who
>>724970264Yeah, I'll assume you're joking...Fist Bump is the main theme in *Sonic Forces*, a Sonic game (that video has more than 3 million views) and Ryuusei no Bifrost, well, that one is a Neptunia song, it's much less popular, definitely, but that video was uploaded by the official IGN channel *and* a lot of people still consider it the best Neptunia opening, and yes, it's one of the most popular opening songs in the franchise.''literally who'' may apply depending on who you ask, Poets of the Fall, Late Goodbye is a ''literally who'' song to me, as of me writing this, I still haven't listened to that song and I don't know how it sounds, unlike Tne best is yet to come and Simple And Clean for example, I've listened to those songs many times even as someone who hasn't played Metal Gear Solid and Kingdom Hearts.
