I got the soundtrack with the Game of the Year addition and burned it to CDs. I listen to them while relaxing in my hot tub. It's freaking fantastic. This is one of my favorite songs from the playlist.
They could have done a better job with Nobunaga! Come one, what is this green valley, a screenplay for windows? And what is he wearing, is that supposed to be a katana?? God, they could have done a beautiful theme like the others TT_TT I was really shocked the first time I saw this!
@162eRI So it makes no sense to dress up a Japanese Daimyo as a samurai, put him a Japanese geographical surrounding and have a classic Koto theme playing in the background? Yeah, sure whatever. The sword is also a wakizashi, by the way, which was a sword used by many samurais and was much larger than the generic katana and kodachi also used by many samurai.
@DrewbusDumbledouche Sorry dude, but wakizashi is not "much larger" than the generic katana, but in fact smaller, translation means "big-little". And even so, if you have already see Japanese nihonto, none are so big, even the nodachi (two hands sword)!!! Japanese geographival surrounding?? Ever went to Japan men? And come one, so many other nice locations to put. At last, he is hardly dress as a samurai, yeah the uniform looks closely like a samurai one, but men, have you ever see one for real?
@DrewbusDumbledouche Saying that mostly because other nations and theme in Civ5 are far more beautiful, realistic and well done than the Japanese one. End of discussion, just search "shogun 2" on google image and you gonna see what I'm talking about for real samurai/daimyo theme!
@162eRI This is Japan as a whole, not just the Sengoku Era. And yes, Shogun 2 has a great OST and it's overall a great game. But then, I'd also like to counter that argument by saying look up Rokudan No Shirabe if you think this theme is "unrealistic".
@DrewbusDumbledouche On that I can't disagree, the music is nice and Japanese like. (sorry I mixed theme and background). The theme music is cool. But the background is so grassy... LOL
even when i liberated his capital from an other civ he kept insulting me. if i wasn't 3 turns from a sci victory that game i woulda put him back in his place.
@wraith1771 Ya usually Japan either hates you or cooperates with you depending on how much they have, if u fight alongside them early on, they usually like u from then on.......unlike Persia
@xxWARBOSSxx Yeah, in the beginning you can be friends with persia, and then they freakin enter the future era when everyone is in the industrial era, and some still waiting to get there. and he always settles cities in other people's territories! >:( Japan is always nice to me unless im am disliked by their friends or at war with their allies. Other than that, me and japan get along fine.

@DrewbusDumbledouche For what it's worth, Wikipedia disagrees with your katana vs wakizashi size.
