WHAT i mean WHAT i mean holy hell this came out of WHAT nowhere. if this played in a vgmgg or something and i hadn't heard it before i would have been surprised to hear it was a trails thing. evo ver makes it pop a little less and the choir doesn't add much at all imo but it's still a solid number on the whole. evo reminding me of dariusburst on repeat listens? not even sure if that's an apt comparison?
-------------------------------------------------------------
a lot of the appeal of this one to me is the instrumentation of the original (some of my favorite synth sounds in any falcom game i'm aware of are present in this track, especially the beginning), so the evo version gets knocked down a ton of points for that BUT i don't dislike what they turned it into, it's just no longer like "whoa I love SC music!!" anymore in the evo version, still has appeal of it's threads back to 90s/early 00s electronic sound design though and epic choir is fun.

This being the last SC battle theme is very unsurprising with this draw

This sounds like the perfect song for the first village you start in in an RPG and it's probably one of the best examples of it. Evo version loses something... I dunno what, but it just doesn't have the same heart the original track does. [Later: Suddenly I'm really in the mood for the Evo version of this song.]

The violin in evo was a nice small touch on an already decent comfy song.
