🔥 Dragalia Lost?

Harle never should have happened. The double Harle deal with Loki was just. Weird and awkward. They should have kept it at one singular Loki who fell to evil due to despair on how sucky the world is

Of all the baffling tiny details that the Dragalia art team kept consistent, I always loved how they kept the same clothes between Aurelius here when holding baby Leonidas:

Look at that smug little smile even as a baby

...And the chapter 20 art here when he was holding baby Euden:

Same golden decorations and everything! I am 99.99% sure someone has had to have made this joke already, but you could say that it was his 'birthday (of his child) suit' since that's the only time we see Aurelius in such clothes!

I also am laughing at the thought of Aurelius carting his deathly sick little newborn all across the continent in the same fancy suits he seems to favor, because how else is he wearing this right here??? This is Audric (with Aurelius' memories) seemingly reminiscing on the first time Aurelius held Euden and how all his internal angst about what he'd just done to get a baby boy back vanished. And since he hasn't exactly had the time to change his wardrobe since fleeing Alberia, well...

In any case, this is just a tiny tiny little thing, but I supposed I'd throw it out for the 6.5 'birthday' of Dragalia!

Investigating Evidence

Caption: Chelle "investigating" the recently confiscated grape juice evidence.

Chelle: You know... This grape juice is quite good!

Emile: Hehehe... With my great skills, I'm sure Chelle wouldn't notice ONE bottle of grape juice missing...

Valyx: What do you think you're doing?

Emile: Eeeeek!

Chelle: Oh, good! The little thief problem is taken care of for me!

Valyx: My soldiers and I spent a long time confiscating these smuggled goods. I don't need anyone tampering with or stealing our evidence.

Valyx: The same goes for drinking it.

Chelle: Ah, you really can be such a stickler, little brother. I was simply seeing what all the fuss was about.

A random thoughts, but somehow, thank you staying with me despite me yapping about pinball game more– it really truly meant a lot to me since I sometimes overshared my interest

Truly, thank you for staying!

Ya know, one day FGO will reach EOS and fade in the annals of history, but I doubt it will ever give me the amount of emotional psychic damage upon seeing it again that Dragalia Lost has

✨The King of kings!!✨ Xander from Dragalia lost doodle!

Yesterday, I was talking to my friend about Dragalia lost (mainly about Xander asgjdlshf) I didn't play it too much, but I remember really enjoying it (also spending all my time and effort trying to make Xander as strong as possible) Listening to the ost brought back so many memories🥺

Fun fact!! One of my sonic ocs was inspired by Xander, among other characters haha

Ask Masterpost 10/12/2024

I will be answering all the BLOG RELATED asks I have received since opening my inbox here :). Going forward, this is how all asks will be answered (if they are not time dependent or something). I will make a new post with new asks every saturday.

my friends and i have been including youtube links in our submissions. is that helpful or annoying?

It's helpful! Thank you :)

-----

Have you gotten a lot of repeat submissions? Like, songs requested by multiple people? If so, what’s the most requests you’ve gotten for a single song? (You don’t need to say what song it is if it’s one you haven’t posted yet)

I don't remember the name, but I've received a song from 'In Stars and Time' about seven times now

-----

I submitted a song from an indie game listing the author as the composer, but then I realised that's not exactly true, as all the music in the game is from a public free gallery. because of that, there's no official upload on youtube. would that still be ok? p.s. thank you for your work, I've come to really love this blog and i look forward to the new polls every day 💕

I'm going to say no, even though the song is in a video game it's not technically intended for the video game itself. I'm curious as to what game this is though.

-----

@kaerran said: Speaking of which: I avoided submitting a game earlier because the only versions I found on a quick search were entire-soundtrack-as-one-video and I wanted to make things easier on you. Is it okay if I submit my mid-90s games even if they don't have nice convenient Youtube links?

Of course that's okay, I'll find a way to work around it even if I have to crop the specific song out myself.

-----

Say a song that's made for a game and is in said game gets an official release of an alternative version that *isn't* in a game. (Ex: an extended version or a version with vocals) I assume that the in-game version of the song is acceptable, while an alternative version that isn't in any games are not. Asking because I've already submitted a couple in-game versions of songs that have official extended/vocal versions that aren't in-game.

Both are acceptable, for two reasons:

It's an official, original release/remix, presumably on an official album, for a video game, so it is technically a form of VGM even if it's not in the video game itself

I wouldn't be allowed to post the official NieR remix albums if I excluded these types of songs

-----

@moonlight-fox said: Hey. Question for when you reopen submissions - For songs that have lyrics, do you want the name of the lead vocalist as well as the composer, or just the composer?

If you know both, feel free to include both! Specifying would help a ton as well. Submitting the artists is optional as I'll almost always go verify it myself but it is very much appreciated.

-----

are there any games with more notable soundtracks that you're surprised HAVEN'T been submitted yet (if any)?

As of writing this, I haven't seen a single song from Persona 5.

-----

Hi, love the blog! Is there any way you could tag similar series? Like, tagging all the soulsborne games with a from software tag, that sort of thing? If not, it’s cool, I would just find it useful. Have a great day, keep up the awesome work! <3

I started doing this when I saw this ask, I hope the way I've categorized things is good so far! If anyone has any suggestions for further categorization feel free to send them in my asks (within reason, lol)

-----

can you put the number of the song in the anonymized title? would help us keep track of which song we're listening to if we're also scrolling

I also started doing this as soon as I saw this ask, thank you for the excellent idea.

-----

Are songs from live-service video games that have ended service permitted? I'm guessing that the answer is yes because I think I saw Dragalia Lost here but I just wanted to be sure before preparing songs to submit next month. Also, I noticed in your pinned post that it still says "submissions are always allowed" - since the rules are different now, you might wanna change that just in case some ppl get confused :3

Yes, songs from live service games that have ended are permitted :) (provided I can access the songs somehow of course)

-----

are we allowed to submit official live versions of video game songs? does its availability online matter (like how the splatoon concerts were officially uploaded, but the kirby 30th anniversary concert was only livestreamed once and has to be pirated now)?

If it's on an official album, I'm going to say yes. So no to the kirby concert -- but if the splatoon songs are on an album, they're allowed.

-----

i cant find if youve answered something like this already, but whats the verdict for songs thatare in video games, but werent made for them? like for example the inclusion of pre-existing low roar songs in death stranding.

As of now, I'll only accept songs that were intentionally made to be included in the OST/album/music of a video game series -- so no preexisting non-VGM songs or anything like that.

-----

out of interest, how far along the submission queue has been posted? when were the most recent posted songs submitted?

3.8% of the entire submissions I have received have been posted. Everything in active vote right now was submitted in July, hence the need to severely restrict submissions...

-----

are we allowed to ask if certain games/series are in the queue? because i cannot for the life of me remember if i submitted something a while ago and dont want to accidentally send it again when submissions reopen ^_^;

You can DM me for this as to not publicly post any spoilers :')

-----

@disgustedorite said: Um, when were the most recent songs submitted? I submitted a batch a while back when submissions were open and there's been no sign of any of them...I hope Tumblr didn't eat it @_@

Tumblr may have eaten it, but it's probably just as likely that I got a million gazillion submissions ahead of you :')

-----

genuine question did someone submit the entire destiny franchise at once or is it that popular and i just never see anything about it

Yes, in the very early days of this blog -- about the tenth submission -- someone submitted ~30 destiny songs.

-----

Do you accept music from mods? I mean, obviously you dont accept anything right now, but ykwim

Yes, as long as it's an original composition/remix :)

-----

@woolooism said: has any song won with any of the "i don't like it" results? if no, which one has the biggest relative percentage of it?

I'll have to check, but I think (off the top of my head) the song with the most "I don't like it" results is the Ao Oni chase theme

Edit: Apparently, it is actually this song from Lisa the Joyful!

-----

@violetsquare111 said: i'm curious, do you know when exactly the currently-running polls were submitted? curious just how far off mine are lol. (but i would guess mine are still a few months out based on the insane number of submissions you shared. 3000... oh god...)

July, so... yours are far off :')

-----

Do songs created for an event in a community engine driven rhythm game (i.e. original songs for custom charts in a rhythm game/community driven game engine) count for submissions? If so, how will they be counted?

I think I'm going to need an example of this scenario because this seems REALLY highly specific, haha

-----

A suggestion. When a song has lyrics, use a video that shows the lyrics in the reveal post. Please and thank you.

I'll do my best, but these aren't always the easiest to find, and I try to use songs from official sources as much as possible to prevent the risk of the video getting copyright stricken off the playlist.

-----

@only-blogging-2-save-rock-n-roll said: Would you ever consider doing joke polls for April fools day? Stuff like those MIDI remakes of song from Franchise A in the style of Franchise B

Probably not, only because it's not an official remix. I may post funny songs depending on submissions.

-----

would you be willing to maybe make a tag for just the polls, even if they're already over? i like going through them all without knowing what game they're from and i also dont keep super on top of checking this blog for new polls. thanks!!

There is one! It's #closed vote :)

-----

@sparrow-va said: Hi! I've had the hare-brained idea of possibly making some Youtube vids of listening to & reacting/trying to identify songs from this blog starting from the oldest submissions for my channel (LaserBearCat Gaming), is that something you'd be okay with? Obvs we would credit & link your blog for the source of the tracks c:

Go right ahead!

-----

I noticed the rules about submission has changed to one song per period per person, which I can totally understand given the amount and when trying to keep a fair chance for everyone will this rule be applied retrospectively too? just wondering because I had been submitting more than one song and just would like to know if I'd need to submit them again one per month now if I would like them to be considered as a submission eventually Also thanks for running this blog it's become one of my favourites and I check it out almost daily

No, It's not going to be applied retroactively -- I don't even know if I'd be able to enforce that because the sheet doesn't record who submitted what (right now).

Hm. Don't like that, actually.

SORRY SOREY SORRYYYYYYYY I DON'T WANNA BE A HATER BUT.......... literally I'm just gonna get this out of my system and then sleep on it but.

I dared not speak it, but. My greatest fear. Was the fact that Henriette's status is still Bad. Death flag looming over her. Askr and Embla are on the cusp of the long-awaited peace treaty. Veronica semi-recently got an updated portrait, to signify character growth.

My worst fear is that they kill off Henriette (WHO IS. ENDLESSLY FASCINATING TO ME and also it's SO COOL to see FE lords navigate their lives/family drama w An Alive Parent), to make way for King Alfonse. And like. They were p on the nose about King Alfonse. In the trailer.

Now for an entirely Me thing like it is so specific and so petty. But I completely lost interest in Dragalia Lost when Euden got his updated portrait, all mature-like, to signify character growth/growing into himself whatever whatever. But for me, the BIGGEST appeal to Euden was that he was just a little guy!!!!!! Up against SO MANY HORRORS!!!!! But he was still extremely capable and had good friends on his side and made it Work.

Now, Alfonse is a pretty different character archetype than Euden. I can acknowledge that, thing is I have considered him to be an underdog in my head but like. There's no denying he grew up too fast and already fit the "mature and capable" archetype (much more than Euden esp, their whole thing acknowledged that too)

But like......... idk maybe I'm just autistic and don't like major changes LMFAOOOOO 🧍 And I'm certain he'll grow on me.... his art IS super pretty........ but you will never hear the end of it from me. If they finally axe Henriette. After ALL they've done for her........ can it just be like. When a story relevant chara "dies" on a map in one of the permadeath games. Like losing Soren in PoR/RD. He's still There, just. Roll credits he was too injured to be deployed. Like. Can Henriette just maybe not fully recover (unfortunate) which makes it so that Alfonse has to take up the mantle. Please. Please. Please.

Idk idk I JUST... SO BADLY.......... wanted it to be just a fun little dress up ........ no greater implications pleacse and tnank you...........
