I have always had a weak spot for the things that most people tend to overlook or simply not care about. In games, these would be things such as the lore, housing (aion) or soundtrack -- those are the factors that catch my attention and keep me playing. In particular the soundtrack is of interest to me, for I believe it tell the story of a game in a way that nothing else can.
"If you shoes are shit, you are shit". Similarly, I believe that the amount of work that has been put in the soundtrack reflects how much care was given to the game overall. I therefore made it my hobby/goal to listen to, select and arrange the defining tracks from the various MMOs out there in such a way that anyone can enjoy them. Games fade, but music endures. And music isn't something that can only be enjoyed by the people playing said game. So, in essence, I try to spread good soundtracks beyond their respective games.
That pretty much summarized my Youtube channel. Since the eye also needs something, though, I also upload stuff like AION cutscenes and more over time.
I won't ask you to subscribe or anything, but at the very least I'd be happy if you would give yourself a chance to open your ears to some of the creations that exist out there.
That being said, I will just be using this tiny spot on the forum for some shameless self-advertising from time to time. Thanks for reading.

I love cutscenes XD I tend to fall in love with a lot of games(non-mmo) that has tons of cutscenes.
One of them particularly stands out for me, as I've played as a child. The game is Xenosaga(1,2,3) on Playstation 2, that game had a huge amount of cutscenes, I spent more time watching than playing. And the soundtrack is pretty great too!
I like watch the aion cutscenes too, although sometimes I worry that when cutscenes show up when I'm in a group, they're probably wondering what I'm doing...
I played a game I think by the same people, I can't really remember since I played it even younger @_@ on Playstation called Xenogears.

A fine example of AION's beautiful and high-quality OST.

Pleasant surprise yesterday. Despite having already chosen a custom channel url before (can only be done once), it turns out I was eligible for an extra change due to a change in their policy. Didn't hesitate and seized the chance: now my custom url matches my profile name. Super happy, as last time I picked a custom url that wasn't remotely helpful. Bit of ranting, but it's the small things in life that make my day Such as being allowed to correct a past mistake.
Uploaded a new "Best of" soundtrack today. Also found out how to finally fix the dark video render that comes with using Sony Vegas, so at last I can start uploading my remaining Aion cutscenes.
Updated the link in the first post.
PS. For those wondering what I do when I'm not on Aion..here is your answer. At least, one of them. I'm a huge fanboy for space-based RTS games.

TERA stepping up its game by suddenly going for a dark/dramatic setting, including characters dying and sad feels all over. The time of go-happy exploring is over!
