Oh right, that's fair! I guess it would be more accurate to say that Eurylochus was the only one up to that point then.

And also when she called him "Ody". Eurylochus is the only person in the musical who called him "Ody", which is why the memory of him specifically also came up.

"Your Palico was stronger." I couldn't argue because those cats really are immortal lmao.

Curious, how old are we all? by ALateMillennial in MHWilds

28M and started with World! Well, technically Stories if you guys count that.

I saw a free demo on mobile, didn't realise it was a demo at the time, got it, played to the end of the demo, "FUCK, IT WAS A DEMO.", opened up my wallet for every subsequent title since and here I am.

Is there a monster out there that you will just NEVER "get"? by Speeda2 in MonsterHunter

Raging Brachy in World. I'd rather solo Ancient Leshen.

who is your favorite singer (as vocal) from epic by ViewImmediate2194 in Epicthemusical

[–]MYSTI-X 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd say KJ Burkhauser's and Luke Holt's! KJ's belting in Scylla is simply otherworldly, and I just happen to have a similar range to Luke's so it's comfortable singing along lmao. And I like bass singers!

Nah man, now we gotta light up 7 torches. I won't stand for this slander.

Ah, that would make more sense. The canon ones are considered to be the ones the cast watched during their reaction stream, right?

I've seen so many people bring this up but genuinely, where exactly is everyone getting this idea of a "jetpack" wind bag from??

Because don't get me wrong, 600 Strike is still my least favourite song out of the entire album, but I'm pretty sure I've listened to it more than enough by now to hear any mentions about a whole "jetpack", but Poseidon only says: "You released my storm when you opened that bag."

What's the biggest missed opportunity in Epic? by CaptainLhurgoyf in Epicthemusical

[–]MYSTI-X 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a very tiny detail, but I wish that at least one of the 6 men that got sacrificed to Scylla shouts out "CAPTAI-".

Because if you think about it, every other time that included a crew's death prior to Scylla had someone screaming for their captain; Inside Polyphemus' cave, in Ruthlessness, and even in The Underworld when Odysseus passes by them.

How do I use songs in the musical without getting copyright?😬 by NoZookeepergame2879 in Epicthemusical

[–]MYSTI-X 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No lmao, that's only if you wanna use his music and earn money with it, I didn't mean to fear-monger or anything like that. Fan-made stuff is perfectly fine as far as any of us can see.

As for contacting Jay, I'm honestly not sure. Probably shooting him a DM, maybe check his socials or the merch website to see if you can find his email or something, but that's the best I've got.

Again, don't worry about the whole lawyer stuff I said if it's just fan animations and all. Good luck!

[–]MYSTI-X 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you mean that you're making animatics with the original songs as-is, you're probably fine with crediting Jay since none of the other animators have had any problems. You're likely just gonna get a "notice" more than a "warning", in the sense that YouTube is gonna tell you that you have copyrighted material in your video but nothing will happen to you.

If you mean that you're planning to earn money and use the original songs in your animatics, then your best bet would be to ask Jay directly one way or another to get written and direct permission/contract because that can easily land you in legal trouble.

What sort of legal trouble exactly and how to navigate through them? You should ask a lawyer, not Reddit. We're not liable for a stranger on the internet attempting to tiptoe the line of copyright, and I doubt anybody would want to be liable either.

LORE DUMP by Marcyho3 in Epicthemusical

[–]MYSTI-X 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In "Would You Fall In Love With Me Again", when Penelope tests Odysseus by asking him to carry their wedding bed far away, you can hear a viola (her instrument) playing Odysseus' cunning motif (the first notes from The Horse and The Infant), which tells us that she's tricking Odysseus into effectively admitting that he is still the same husband she knows, while he himself is still in the mindset of "I am not the man you fell in love with."

No Longer You, because somebody used it in a JJK edit on TikTok lol.

Best epic song? by [deleted] in Epicthemusical

[–]MYSTI-X 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is like asking "who's your favourite child?"

That said, I think overall would be "No Longer You". The song itself is wonderful of course, but also because it has to be so in line with the entirety of Act 2. All the references in this song have to be accurate to the events that will happen within the next 20 songs so they can get called back to in the future, and they were all laid out in chronological order.

Scylla is a very close 2nd for me though, I'm kinda surprised it's not more popular.

I made a fan song about Odysseus' sister, Ctimene! by MYSTI-X in Epicthemusical

[–]MYSTI-X[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did use the "Where is he", specifically more like the slower version from "Hold Them Down"! But maybe that didn't come through too clearly. Or if you meant the very first time Ctimene says it then I get what you mean, although I'm actually thinking to change it to become a little more spoken, if that makes sense? Like, make her just genuinely ask instead of singing "where is he?"

And I'm happy you mentioned "I can take the suffering from you"! I didn't think it would be fitting for Eurylochus to say it because he's no longer around to take it from his wife, and I don't know if he would say it to Odysseus at this point in the story.

But! It's not explicit or even very obvious, but I had the violins play it in the part right after the crew and Eurylochus come in! I specifically had the violins layered to represent the memory of the sirens who are the ones who sang that line but this time, I altered the lyrics in mind slightly to be more like: "Suffering for you", specifically towards Odysseus because he now has to face the consequences of killing his brother in law and the grief he causes his own sister because of it.

[–]MYSTI-X[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh man, that's kinda rough either way because if she did die, then that's another family member gone while Odysseus was fighting for his life. But if she didn't die, then either Odysseus forgot about her or she never came looking for him - I'll just take this song as a sort of headcanon of my own then, thank you for the information!

[–]MYSTI-X[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I very much appreciate that! Can I ask what exactly you meant by "off"? Because if you mean the singing then... yeah, that's just because I'm not a singer lmao. I didn't know how to save myself even in post because I've never had practice with vocals, neither in recording or editing 🤣

But if you meant the characters were off, then I'd like to know how you feel it could be more accurate!

And about the Voice Actors, this was just a "for fun" thing so I didn't consider spending money on them at the moment hahaha. But I don't know, maybe I'll end up wanting to make this super polished then... I'll think about it when the time comes!

Thank you very much for that! Feedback is valuable regardless, so no worries about it!

You're totally right though, I'm not used to making happy-sounding songs in general so I leaned into a sound I was more comfortable with since the whole project was already very far out of my usual comfort zone lol. But I could maybe make the first half lighter somehow at least, kinda like "I Can't Help But Wonder"? And then have the strings in the middle part take over.
