Why thank you :3.
Great piece
To be honest there was such a large amount of instruments used here I don't think I could tell what parts make this song sound good and what parts make it sound awesome. I can see this being used in a very old turn based RPG game for the SNES as well so you did something right here.
The drums and orchestra sound like bliss here as they start up the beat and provide happiness to the tune. The steel guitar sounds quite astounding and well done so not much losing there anyways, cool. The many other amazing instruments that I hear kind of just feel like ear candy and invite the listener to just sit down and enjoy the beat while the play some games and whatnot.
Overall, I feel impressed with this piece.

Thanks! You focused your review around the instruments used which is great because I find this to be one of my best in terms of instrumentation.
I worked on the drums so I'm glad you like them! Echo worked on the orchestra except the violin at the end and I can't seem to remember whose idea it was to use the steel guitar :P.
Really glad you enjoyed this song. Thanks for reviewing man!
Good song
This piece reminds of some film score, but I can't really say which one.
Anyway, this is a very good submission. I like how this song keeps itself in the background so nicely. This is one of the main criterias for me if I reate soundtracks for a game.
A game without music can get boring very soon (if there's nothing to listen to I tend to get bored quite quickly), but if the game music is so loud that I can't concentrate on the game any longer, then it's not good music. The music has to fit to the game (let's take the Resident Evil series as an example. The music fits perfectly to the games and even the music alone can make you feel uncomfortable).
Now this piece could be used in various genres. Medieval games, RPGs, or adventures. The atmosphere you create with this song is somewhat relaxing, but it also has a certain "Now let's start our mission!"-feeling to it, which I quite like.

Yeah loads of people compare my songs to movie soundtrack. I quite like it :3.

Echo and I aren't that experienced at making background music actually. I'm glad we succeeded over here though!

Very true. I think one of the main reasons why Okami is one of my favourite games is that the soundtrack is just so brilliant and is just right for the game. I don't play Resident Evil much so I can't see if I agree with you about its music, I'm afraid :P.

Yeah, the plains world was actually going to be the first 'level' of the RPG we made this for, so it's good that you mentioned that.
Really happy that you enjoyed the song, and thanks again!
