Have been trying to play this, just lately, the music is so lovely it hurts. Found these when trying to learn more about the music. The music is beautiful and engaging, but the game . . . maybe if playing it did not result in constant crashes, strange problems with things not appearing and delayed reactions it would be enjoyable. Not sure.

The sound a graphic design are beyond beautiful though.

Thank you for your coverage and the streaming samples! Makes me want to play the game! Am a huge fan of the first Ragnarok Online and its soundtrack.

Hey, tai, I really hope you read this. I’m glad to see you have good taste in music, and if you extracted those files yourself, I’m pretty excited to hear that. Perhaps you’ve heard of Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles — it’s another game, similar genre, though not online, and it’s also renowned for its sound track. I’ve been looking to try and replace the audio from RO2 with audio from FFCC. Don’t get me wrong, I love the music from both games, I just want to try it out. If you have any knowlege of how I can unpack, or even better, repack the .rmp format in the current Open Beta, I’d love to get any information I can. All I know is it might be Real Metadata Package format, but nothing will play these files, so I’m stuck.

This music is breath-taking, as well the game looks amazing. I’m a constant player of the original Ragnarok, and I’m debating trying out the second beta. I have to say, the way you portray this game with music, pictures and storyline really draws me in! I think in the soon future when I can muster up the time to download and install this, I’ll be happy to give it a try. Thank you for the music downloads, I really think some of my friends would love this music. :3

A great work from Yoko Kanno, I definitly enjoy each song from this soundtrack. Thanks for this heartwarming review, it’s the less that it deserves

Well, this soundtrack has been largely well-received by the VGM community and I’ve definitely enjoyed listening to it. The intro song does have this sort of feel to it where it instills a sense of wanderlust within the listener to get them to go forth and explore a whole new world and marvel at the wonders that exist beyond their hometowns. Clap & Walk also has the same sort effect, though it’s got a more energizing feel to it, but nothing quite compares to the epic Celtic/Irish flair of Din Don Dan Dan which is absolutely wonderful. I daresay that may be the best piece on the entire album.

Either way, this album covers so much that a comment simply won’t be able to do it justice, but like you said, it captures the fantasy scenery and atmosphere through its symphonic pieces really well and I also second your motion that more people need to give this one a listen.
