Opera Singer Reacts to Stained, Brutal Calamity

You literally described the whole Terraria's fighting procces. You basically fly up and down, because you can have wings. While fighting the enemy that attacks you, it usually also flies.

"Fighting in the sky" is a PERFECT way to describe this fight

Terraria Calamity is the biggest mod for Terraria. It has a whole dev team working on the mod itself. Calamity is a great expansions on terraria and Stained, Brutal Calamity is the theme of Supreme Calamitas the final boss of the mod. The whole mod is a banger and the music is pretty good too. Some select tracks from Calamity go VERY hard. Most of the ost for calamity is made by DM dokuro.

I would sell my soul to see a orchestra play this song live

The Calamity mod's music is such a wild thing. The composer sadly needed to step away from the mod for his own mental health, but his work is definitely phenomenal. For context in regards to the last part of the song, that's when the boss is basically defeated, and waits for you to bring down the final blow while giving a small monologue.

Now he HAS to do Yharon the jungle dragon, it really is maginificint and beautiful <3

Imagine my SHOCK when when I get a notification saying marco is reviewing a calamity song. The mod completely changes the game and the level of effort that went and continues to go into it is astounding, gameplay, story, and lore wise but none more so (in my opinion) than DM DOKURO's contribution to the music. The music of calamity breathes new life into the game in a way only music can and there are so many tracks worth looking at there. This is the final bosses theme and its epic composition reflects just how truly momumental the fight is. Your observation about ascending and descending is on point as jumping and flying around is a hallmark of Terraria combat. So happy you took a look at this song and I can't think of a better way to have broken up my otherwise monotonous Monday. Great job as always man, look forward to more

Calamity has a deep and complex lore so let me keep it simple. The boss you're fighting here is Supreme Calamitas, The Brimstone Witch. The song is describing her thoughts and feelings about the state of the world. The god of this world, Yharim, has brought chaos and destruction on it, hence the name "Calamity". You're goal is to kill him to bring peace to the world. At the end of the fight, Calamitas expresses hope that you might be powerful enough to destroy Yharim, as she herself has lost hope. There's a whole bunch of stuff I left for the sake of simplicity, but that's should give you an idea of what this mod is

Fascinating that you mention ascending and descending, "flying in the sky" is how you described it. At this point in the fight (since this is a boss theme), you're being chased by very big projectiles and have to fly in slow circles for the rest of the fight to keep them from catching up to you, and the music follows that gameplay loop, you can even hear that circular motion within those parts you were describing and I think it's so cool! You can even hear the projectiles come in at 9:07, and it's incredible that even someone who has never seen the fight picked up on it. As a couple other comments already pointed out, there's lyrics and you should definitely look them up, it gives a lot more context to the actual fight. Love the video, great work as always!

Lyrics, as posted on DM Dokuro's bandcamp =Grief - Perspective of Calamitas= No more holding back They'll wish for demise They thought they were invincible But you could see through their hollow lies You've seen how far they've come How many they've slain You will gladly tear their limbs apart All before they start to kill again They were seen as a threat by the moment the dragon was killed by their hand Now you're sent to demolish the foe upon your ruler's despondent demand Something tells you they have scaled in their power Should they win, it shall be your final hour But you still have control of the fight If they mess up, you might have a chance to destroy them But is this the right path that you've taken? Are your morals correct, or mistaken? Are you sure you want to lose your mind From a legend whose power could salvage mankind? =Lament - Perspective of the Player= You have known for certain Your path is one of justice All those who try to obstruct shall have paid the ultimate price Yet, upon inspection Your foe is overwhelming But you remember what she tried to sacrifice Signs of self-disappointment start infiltrating (These putrid emotions begin to take control) Symptoms of paranoia begin invading (Such petty emotions have sabotaged your soul) Your mental fortitude is fading Losing trust, ending friendship, and rage escalating Right on the road to your sadness Watching closely as courage turns into madness Are you sure you'd want to lose your life From a witch who had caused you nothing but strife? =Epiphany= The end has come; The witch and the prophecy Deciding fates with the world on the line Who shall emerge From the ashes of calamity? How shall this fable end through these legends intertwined? End of reasoning Carnage and pain A feral sense of dominance As all the blood melts into the rain A clash of history In blood, sweat and tears This war will cause our world to change And will be remembered through the years

Terraria is such a innocent and jolly game that its somewhat morbid lore comes as a real surprise. Especially with this mod.

Kind of insane really how how a mod for an indie game has such a legendary soundtrack sounding like something you'd hear In a high end jrpg. Evan more impressive the fact it was all done by one guy seriously dm dokuro is an absolute legend definitely up there with yuka kitqmura and Alex roe definitely one of the greats. It's a damn shame the the fans took him for granted. seriously though you need to check out the whole calamity soundtrack there's not a single bad song in there. They are all absolute bangers and worth a listen dm dokuro truly is the goat

I love how he just understood almost everything about the boss battle just from the soundtrack. He got it spot on!

The entire Calamity mod OST is ABSURD. We have leitmotifs everywhere, lots of tracks that fit really well with the biome/fight they're put into... DM Dokuro really made something beautiful with this one. I'd heavily recommend listening to Return to Slime, Hadopelagic Pressure, 1NF3S+@+!0N and The Devourer of Gods (Nonstop Mix). Each one wildy different, but extremely fitting. Lovely video!

Its cool that he said the church bells meant salvation, because Supreme calamitas, the boss who is fought with this song, is the only boss in the game that you sort of "spare". You win the fight, but then she joins you and becomes one of the town npcs.

You should totally listen to the whole ost. The insight you give on your videos is amazing and I'd love to hear what you have to say about the rest of this amazing ost!

What I like is that the music simulteniously talks to two persons. The choir section is meant to adress the boss (Supreme Calamitas) as her confidence becomes more and more shaken the further the fight progresses. Meanwhile the solo singer talks to the player, trying to shake them as much as possible, while the player becomes more and more anxious to stay alive, as the fight progresses towards the end. The singer clearly tries to steal the end of the fight hype, hoping to replace it with fear of dying so close to the end.

I'm sure others could explain it better but at its core Terraria is an adventure game centred around resource management and crafting systems. You defeat bosses, take their loot, explore the massive world, and search for rare materials so you can defeat harder bosses. Also found it funny that you mentioned the idea of the chords wavering up and down as that pretty accurately describes the character's movement during boss fights, desperately flying up and down to avoid projectiles. The Calamity mod is a modification for Terraria which adds more than double the content of the base game. Most of the music in the mod was done by DM DOKURO as a labor of love with tracks ranging from EDM to orchestral metal and even synthwave. The mod is focused on providing the player with difficult-but-rewarding encounters and stretching the game well past the base game limitations.

Even base game Terraria has music that has no business being as good as it is for such a seemingly cute game

OMG you actualy did Calamity mod. First music reaction channel ive seen dive into smthn so niche. Nice one Im sure you will enjoy them. DM Dokuro outdid himself while making them. If you are doing more of them then The Devourer of Gods or Roar of The Jungle Dragon is a must!
