Blue Dragon And 8 Other Completely Unhinged RPG Battle Themes You Need To Listen To

Earlier today, my partner came into the room and asked if I’d ever be interested in playing the 2007 Xbox 360 RPG Blue Dragon. This was sort of a weird question, even in our very gaming-centric household, but apparently the reason he asked is that the game is getting an unofficial PC port (as spotted by VGC).

That’s cool! It’s great that it won’t be stuck on the Xbox 360 anymore and will be accessible to more people. I politely declined to play Blue Dragon at this time (I am busy), but later today the game must have still been on his mind, because my partner sent me this:

That is, I kid you not, apparently the regular-ass battle music in Blue Dragon, a game composed by…Nobuo Uematsu? The Final Fantasy guy?!

Oh my God. This is great. You get like three measures of whatever guitar and then this guy just starts wailing out of tune. And it has lyrics that invoke a ridiculous anime OP from the 90s or something. All while rocking out as hard as possible so that you never lose the momentum of battle. Hell yeah!

I love RPGs, and I love an RPG that’s not afraid to do stuff with its music that’s unconventional. A boss theme that’s calm and soothing rather than intense, a field theme that’s unexpectedly sad, lyrics, rare or specialized instruments, I love it all.

It’s Friday, so in the spirit of Blue Dragon , let’s celebrate its arrival on PC by listening to some other totally unhinged, wacky, or out there regular RPG battle themes together.
