STELLAR BLADE BOSS CHALLENGE - RAVEN
It's been about a month since Stellar Blade came out, and to celebrate the new mode update, I'm posting a boss fight video.
Director Kim's initial proposal for the battle with Raven was a desperate struggle in a deserted space with just the two of them. By stripping everything down to a very minimalistic level, we wanted the battle between the two of them to be more emotional. Of course, that was his first suggestion in the early stages of development, so it's not an absolute, it's just one of the ideas.
The first thing that came to mind with that keyword was the fight scene in 'Nowhere to Hide'. Slower music in an intense situation heightens the emotion. I had a few ideas for minimalist, emotionally moving music, but I didn't think it would fit what I wanted for the game. After some thought, I ended up taking the opposite approach to the initial suggestion. Instead of a minimalist, slow piece, I decided on a complex, fast piece. I focused on the character of Raven. I decided it would be more fitting to express Raven's insanity, which is more in line with the game.
When you fight Raven, it's the second half of a series of intense boss battles. We'd already done some scale music in Democrawler and Demogorgon, so if we continued the escalation of scale, the situation would be memorable, but the music wouldn't be.
