#ring a bell [tales of vesperia]

[zincfingermotif]

can’t you see you’re my other half

[likestoimagine16]

Its been 3000 years, but I finally finished (half) of the post-canon 'Flynn has nightmares about Yuri falling off of Zaude' fic

[kosmososs]

overheard my mom say "ring a bell" and the tales of vesperia intro started playing in my head its genuinely so over for me

For the 11th anniversary of Project X Zone's NA release, today's useless PXZ fact is going to be a very special one.

I'm going to be talking about...licensing! I'm pretty sure you know where this is going.

That's right, I'll be talking about the songs from the first Project X Zone that were removed from the international releases due to licensing issues.

There are 10 songs that were removed from the international releases of Project X Zone, and here they all are:

Wing Wanderer (Opening theme)

Galaxy (Ending theme)

ROCKS (Super Robot Wars: Original Generation)

Over the Clouds (God Eater)

Ring a Bell (Tales of Vesperia)

Cathedral ~ Hidden Forbidden Holy Ground (.hack//INFECTION)

Mexican Flyer (Space Channel 5)

If You Wish For It (Valkyria Chronicles III)

World's Love (Shining Force EXA)

High Rise to Hell (Die Hard Arcade)

First up are the original songs, Wing Wanderer and Galaxy, the former being the opening theme and the latter being the ending theme of Project X Zone.

Both were removed in the international releases, with Wing Wanderer being replaced with an instrumental song that suspiciously sounds like it, while Galaxy is replaced with a rendition of the opening theme from the international releases of PXZ.

The orchestral version of Wing Wanderer was also replaced for the same reason in the international releases.

ROCKS by JAM Project is the opening theme of Super Robot Wars: Original Generations, a remake of the first two OG games.

In Project X Zone, ROCKS would play during the 2nd half of chapter 27, as well as in Haken and Kaguya's multi-target attack.

In the international releases, ROCKS was removed and instead, the main theme of Endless Frontier, which is In the Land Beyond Endless "Time", would play in the 2nd half of chapter 27 as well as in Haken and Kaguya's multi-target attack.

Over the Clouds is the opening theme song of the first God Eater game, and it was remixed in Project X Zone for Soma and Alisa's special attack, which is appropriately called Over the Clouds. The song also plays during their multi-target attacks.

The song was completely removed in the international releases and as a result, Endless Erosion would play in their special and multi-target attacks instead.

Aside from that, but the song God and Man -Shall We Meet Again-, the theme song of Lindow both in God Eater and Project X Zone, became one of Soma and Alisa's theme songs in the game.

Ring a Bell is the main theme of Tales of Vesperia, and is one of the theme songs of the Yuri and Estelle in Project X Zone.

In the international releases, their theme songs are Fury Sparks and The Cold Morning Star Passes By instead, with the former song also playing during their special attack and the latter song also playing during their multi-target attack.

This was completely averted in the sequel, Project X Zone 2, as Ring a Bell was kept in the game's international releases.

The Cathedral theme from the first .hack game is the song that would play whenever Aura would show up in Project X Zone, but that was removed in the international releases. So whenever Aura appeared, Stairs of Time, .hack//LINK's theme song, as well as Kite and BlackRose's theme song in Project X Zone, would play instead.

Like with Ring a Bell, this was also averted in Project X Zone 2, as the Cathedral theme has been kept in that game too.

Mexican Flyer serves as Ulala's theme song in this game. It's the song that plays in the first level of Space Channel 5.

In the international releases, it's been replaced by Coco Tapioca's theme song.

And just like with Ring a Bell and the Cathedral theme, this was also averted in PXZ2, as Mexican Flyer was kept in the international releases.

If You Wish For It is the opening theme song of Valkyria Chronicles III. In Project X Zone, it serves as Kurt and Riela's main theme.

In the international releases, it was replaced with the Valkyria Chronicles theme song, Valkyria's Awakening. It also serves as the theme song of their special and multi-target attacks.

Their other theme song is Open Fire! which is also Imca's theme both in Valkyria Chronicles III and Project X Zone.

World's Love is the opening theme song of Shining Force EXA, and also Toma and Cyrille's theme song in Project X Zone.

In the international releases, their theme song instead is Hope, the hub world song in their home game, Shining Force EXA.

And lastly, High Rise to Hell, the song that plays from Die Hard Arcade, which is obviously based on the Die Hard film.

Obviously, this was removed in the international releases to avoid any sort of association with the Die Hard franchise.

That's also the reason why Bruno's design got changed in the international releases of Project X Zone, so he wouldn't resemble John McClane, the main protagonist of Die Hard, who is portrayed by Bruce Willis.

This would mean that Bruno no longer resembled John, and to an extent, Bruce Willis.

Now as for Bruce's theme song in the international releases of Project X Zone, his theme song is now a remix of one of the songs from Dynamite Cop, the game where he came from.

His theme song in Project X Zone is now Poop Deck Pursuit. I kid you not, that's the actual name of the song.

And that's the end of the thread! Well that was a lot to unpack. I have nothing else to say except...happy 11th anniversary to Project X Zone's NA release ❤

I'll be celebrating again this October, because the game will actually turn 12 years old this year!

friendly reminder that these kinds of tags will send me down a rabbit hole of re-reading your gorgeous writings and now there may or may not be more art incoming >3

“Maybe he can’t protect her from everything but damn it, he can try.”

Because misty-reeyus and sword-and-stars are horrible brilliant people and they deserve all the pretty things.  Even if it means me dying from emotional overload in the process.

I must be the light when you're in the dark. If I lose you somewhere, and I'm still hanging in there. I will ring a bell until you feel me by your side

At this point… Was Flynn expecting anything not bunny related from her?

“....”

Flynn just wraps a little piece of cloth around it, to give the doll some form of decency.

[talesofourworlds]

(ooc: Anyway, here comes a ramble. I am a huge sucker for games that reincorporate their main theme or a specific bit of music into other music within the game. Like Tales of the Abyss. It feels like it was practically built around Karma with how much reincorporation of it there is within the game! Mirrors, Meaning of Birth, In Between 1 and 0, the music that plays when Asch dies, hell even the tracks that play during the final fight with Van are all titled after lyrics of Karma!

Tales of Berseria, instead of using the opening theme, does well reincorporating Velvet's specific theme throughout the game. Which is just as nice and I love it.

Tales of Vesperia also does a great job of reincorporating Ring a Bell into other tracks in the game with both a heroic sounding version and a sad version. Their respective track names are escaping me. And I know the credits music also is a nice reincorporation of Ring a Bell.

Tales of Legendia does this to a lesser extent as well, as technically it does reincorporate its opening theme into game... except it's the Japanese opening of Tao rather than the orchestral opening of the English release. Which honestly, I like Tao a little bit better than the orchestral opening but that's just a personal preference.

And of course Xillia 2 also gives us a fantastic reincorporation of Song 4 U with If It's For You ~ Song 4 U. And the game as a whole utilizes the Hymn of Proof nicely as well.

We also can't forget Tales of Graces reincorporating White Wishes in at least a couple of instances, either!

Arise also gets points for having the second opening theme, Hello Again, play during a later part of the second half.

I just love when games reincorporate music in different areas. A+ game design element.)

[anhedoniacity]

ring a bell by bonnie pink! the song from the opening sequence of the game tales of vesperia

actually everyone who doesn’t listen to the same song on repeat for hours is insane. if uou like hearing a song once, you’ll love hearing it 30 times. this makes perfect sense
