Final Fantasy Fan Song – Epic Six!!!

Leave a comment

Hey classic RPG lovers, it’s Kern here! If you grew up casting spells, saving on Slot 1, and grinding EXP in Marsh Cave, then this fan song is made for you. “The Epic 6” is a nostalgic, 8-bit-inspired tribute to the original Final Fantasy (FF1). This original song retells the journey of the Warriors of Light; Fighter, Thief, Monk, White Mage, Black Mage, and Red Mage. Together they rise from humble beginnings in Cornelia to face legendary trials and save the world.

Lyrics:
Do-do-da-da, do-do-da-da…
Awaken the world with pixel fists of fate.

We rose from Cornelia, six blades in the sun,
The Fighter stood fearless, the journey begun.
The Thief dashed quick through the shadow and light,
While the Monk crushed stone with bare-knuckle might.
The White Mage prayed with a staff held high,
The Black Mage sparked like a fire in the sky.
Red Mage walked in with a sword and a spell,
All roads were open, all fates to quell.

We are the Epic 6, forged in quests and tricks,
From pixel plains to burning bricks.
We level, we clash, we cast, we fight, In the 8-bit dawn, we burn so bright.
Together we rise, together we fall, With blades and books, we answer the call.
We’re the Epic 6, forever bold, In a world of myth and dungeons old.

We crossed the seas on pixel tides,
Through marsh and cave where darkness hides.
A crown was stolen, a fiend awoke,
We fought with hope and worn-out cloaks.
A bridge was built, a world unlocked,
We stormed the keep where monsters stalked.

Step by step, and fight by fight,
We earned each point of stat and might.
Save on slot one, don’t forget to rest,
A tent by moonlight, then on to the quest.
Elixirs rare and gold so thin,
But XP flows where hearts begin.
We met the king of dragons, eyes aglow,
A trial of worth in the fire below.
He saw our strength, our journey true,
And said, “Now rise… become renewed!”

The Fighter turned Knight with a holy blade,
The Thief to Ninja; fast, unafraid.
The Monk found peace and the Master’s grace,
The Mages rose to wizard’s place.

We are the Epic 6, reborn through grit and clicks,
From byte-sized dreams to warlord tricks.
With shining spells and power unfurled,
We face the Four Fiends, we’ll save the world.
Together we burn, together we shine,
Our fate was forged in crystal design.

We’re the Epic 6, hear the tale,
Of heroes born from an 8-bit trail.
In the data of dreams and the dawn of the fight,
The Epic 6 march through pixels and light.

Level Grind – A Song about MMORPGS and the Grinds We Take to Reach the Top

Leave a comment

Hey all, it’s Kern here, coming at you with a fan song all about Final Fantasy XI, Final Fantasy XIV, World of Warcraft, and the joys of a good level grinds… or in the case of this song, the ways in which it drives a player absolutely crazy after the near billionth go-around. We’ve all been there, I’m sure.

In any case, this baby is just all about the grind and hopefully you enjoy the ride on it. This has a rap, R&B vibe to it. Don’t we all know it by now? Level Grind, Level Grind, makes you lose your freakin’ mind…

So yeah… on your next grinding session give this song a play, and give yourself over to the mmorpg of your choice whenever it’s time to level grind.

This has been Kern of The Demented Ferrets, where stupidity is at it’s finest and level grinds are part for the course… Yep, that’s how deep this song is embedded into my brain… it’s literally in our catch phrase.

The Deep Remembers Him (Still Wakes the Deep: Siren’s Rest Fan Song)

Leave a comment

Hey all, it’s Kern here! Still Wakes the Deep is a horror game set on an oil rig. A quick review of the game can be found here. However, earlier this year a short DLC was released Still Wakes the Deep: Siren’s Rest, and in my opinion it really is a solid DLC all around.

In Still Wakes the Deep: Siren’s Rest, you play a member of a specialist dive team. The group goes to the North Sea to uncover the truth about what happened on the rig, and as you can guess you’re underwater for the majority of the game. I don’t want to give away too much, it’s a short DLC to play through, but I do believe it’s worth the time for anyone who enjoys undersea horror with a dash of eldritch horror meets “The Thing”, which is how I describe Still Wakes the Deep to anyone who wants to play it without spoilers.

Kresh and I thoroughly enjoyed the DLC to the point we made a fan song about it. This is that song, I hope you enjoy it, and if you’re looking for a horror game to play, maybe give Still Wakes the Deep a try. Just be ready for a lot of water related havoc, and that goes double for the DLC.

Happy gaming everyone, and now, for the fan song:

If you like the song, and want to pick up the MP.3 for yourself, you can get it over on our Patreon if you’re a paying member: patreon.com/TheDementedFerrets. As always, you can listen to the song here or over on our YouTube channel whenever you want. Remember to check out our Twitch channel to catch up playing all kinds of video games and having a great time!

This has been Kern of The Demented Ferrets, where stupidity is at its finest and level grinds are par for the course! See you next time.

Game Reviews

Survival, Terror, and the North Sea: Still Wakes the Deep (Quick Review)!

Leave a comment

Hey everyone, It’s Kern here…. you know, last year was packed with standout horror titles, and I didn’t really get around to reviewing them the way I hoped for. It’s time I got around to it now; Still Wakes the Deep makes a haunting impression with its claustrophobic tension, atmospheric design, and a chilling dive into psychological horror. This thing won a lot of awards too, which you can see for yourself:

The game was developed by The Chinese Room, the same studio behind narrative-driven games (walking simulators as some call them), like Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture and Dear Esther. Because they’re easy to play, they’re very accessible for novice gamers looking for a good story. You can find both of those games on Steam. For those of us who want some heavier gameplay, though Still Wakes the Deep is a solid choice.

As far as Still Wakes the Deep is concerned, the game is a slow-burning nightmare set against the brutal backdrop of the North Sea in the 1970s. You play as Cameron “Caz” McLeary, who happens to be an electrician working aboard a massive oil drilling platform. After everything goes right to hell in a handbag (as things tend to in horror games), the rig is damaged and everything rapidly descends into chaos. To make matters worse, monstrous entities begin to appear, stalking the creaking metal corridors. So, yeah, you’re screwed!

There’s no way off the rig, no help coming, and nowhere to hide for long. So what do you do? Run, hide, and keep away from the big baddies, that’s what! Still Wakes the Deep foregoes combat entirely. It’s all about survival. You spend time sneaking past unseen horrors, solving environmental puzzles, and navigating the collapsing rig under relentless storms. The first-person perspective heightens the immersion, placing you firmly in the hot seat as Caz, come hell and high water. That’s right, you get both! If you don’t like deep water horror, this is NOT the game for you.

For fans of story-driven horror set on open water and oil rigs, Still Wakes the Deep is a must-play experience. It’s not about cheap jump scares…. nah, instead, it delivers a slow, dread-filled experience that lingers long after the credits roll.

Kresh even made a fan song about it, so take a listen, if you want to! Just keep in mind, spoilers are layered within the song, obviously!

Well, that’s all for now everyone. This has been Kern of The Demented Ferrets, where stupidity is at its finest and level grinds are par for the course.

RWBY Fan Song: Battle at the Bar

Leave a comment

Hey all, it’s Kern here, coming at you with another RWBY fan song, this time about the RWBY Yellow Trailer. This fan song was inspired by Yang’s combat style, character motivations, and what little we knew of the events at the time…. a little retrospection, a whole lot of badassery, and here we have it: Battle at the Bar. As always, these lyrics are human written, but AI was used to compose the song.

[Intro] YEEAAAAHHHHHHHH!

[Verse 1] She’s tearing down the streets, the engine’s a roar, A blazing beauty, she’s ready for war! Pulls up to the curb, slams the brakes tight, Throws off her helmet, sets the world alight! With hair like fire, she’s ready to show, The storm’s just started, here she goes! Struts through the door like she owns the place, A smirk on her lips, fire in her face!

[Pre-Chorus] She steps to the bar, cocky grin on her face! Orders a drink with an umbrella in place!

Chorus] She’s the Blaze of the Dragon, lighting up the night, Fists of fury, she’s ready for the fight! With Ember Celica strapped to her arms, She’ll blast you away with her fiery charms! She’s the Blaze of the Dragon, hear her call, One punch is all it takes to make ’em fall! When the flames ignite, you better stand clear, Yang’s on fire, and she’s bringing the fear!

[Verse 2] Looking for answers, she won’t back down, Junior’s got the info, but he’s standin’ his ground! She won’t take no for an answer tonight, A fight for the truth, she’s ready to ignite! With Ember Celica, she’s breaking the floor, One punch, one blast, and they’ll beg for more! The battle’s on, you better beware, Yang’s on the hunt, and she’s bringing the flare!

[Pre-Chorus] Watch her bring the heat, the battle’s begun, The dragon’s unleashed, there’s nowhere to run!

[Chorus] She’s the Blaze of the Dragon, lighting up the night, Fists of fury, she’s ready for the fight! With Ember Celica strapped to her arms, She’ll blast you away with her fiery charms! She’s the Blaze of the Dragon, hear her call, One punch is all it takes to make ’em fall! When the flames ignite, you better stand clear, Yang’s on fire, and she’s bringing the fear!

[Bridge] (Guitar solo, wild and fast, with a slow breakdown) She’s got the power, she’s got the might, Like a comet, she’ll burn through the night! With every strike, the world will know, Yang’s the one who steals the show! (Guitar wailing as it fades out into the next section)

[Chorus – Final] She’s the Blaze of the Dragon, lighting up the night, Fists of fury, she’s ready for the fight! With Ember Celica strapped to her arms, She’ll blast you away with her fiery charms! She’s the Blaze of the Dragon, hear her call, One punch is all it takes to make ’em fall! When the flames ignite, you better stand clear, Yang’s on fire, and she’s bringing the fear!

[Outro] YEAHHHHH! She’s the Blaze of the Dragon, ohhhh! With a punch that lands, Junior’s flying through, Smashing through the window, out cold, he flew! Landing on the streets, no one hears him scream, Yang’s got the fight, but not the answers she dreams. She walks away, her search far from done, Looking for her mother, the hunt’s still on!

Well, that’s about all for this one. You may want to check out a few other pieces of our content below. Also, don’t forget that you can check us out over on our other platforms.

STARBOUND – A Synthwave Journey Amid the Stars

The Starbound album comes to you from the mastermind of Kresh, and there’s a loose narrative to be found across the album about an AI learning about their own humanity and person-hood. It’s also much shorter than our glam rock/glam metal City of Shadows universe, which is now in its second album.

Rainbow Rodeo – A LGBTQIA Pride Album

Hey all, it’s Kern here, coming at you with a mostly country music album with two bonus songs. The goal with this album was just to spread a little pride through the LGBTQIA community to our best ability. Personally I had a blast making the majority of it, and Kresh came in strong with the…

Stage Left, Exit Flame

The song is about breakups and new beginnings as lesbian lovers end their relationship. One walks out, and the one left behind picks up the pieces in her life. It’s as empowering as it is a little sad

RWBY Fan Song: Jinn’s Observations (Remnants of Light)

Leave a comment

Hey all, it’s Kern here, coming at you with another RWBY Fan song…

I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but as I continue to work on the RWBY fan song playlist, I’ve also begun (kind of) laying them out in what would logically be a chronological timeline order on the YouTube playlist. However, I really, really REAAAALLLLYYY (you see how bad I wanted this?) wanted to have some kind of way to tie these fan songs together into a way that highlights the much wider narrative and universe… and then, it came to me.

We’ve got that in Jinn, (who we now did the explanation in Volume 1, Chapter 1). So, this fan song is all about world building. I wanted to focus not on a set of characters, but rather, the world of Remnant at large. I really hope you enjoy it… and as always, don’t forget to follow us on YouTube and Twitch for fun content.

Lyrics:

[Spoken] Legends, stories, scattered in time, Told by history, destruction in rhyme. Heroes and villains in fading lore, They forgot what they were fighting for.

[Verse 1] From dust they rose, with hearts so bold, In lands where the shadows took hold. Born into a world without reprieve, But strong enough to still believe.

[Pre-Chorus] Darkness came with teeth and claws, No gods to pity, no cause to pause. Yet in the black, they sparked a light, And dared to dream, and dared to fight.

[Chorus] Remnants of light, they carry on, Through shattered peace and breaking dawn. With dust in hand, they forge their way, Though time forgets, they speak their name. When shadows rise to drown the soul, Even the smallest spark makes them whole. Remnants of light, don’t fade away, They are the hope that finds its way.

[Verse] Creatures of Grimm, with no remorse, Built from chaos, a soulless force. But passion burned and wisdom grew, And life returned where darkness flew. Civilizations rise and fall, Still they carve meaning through it all. A fleeting breath, a fragile gleam, Still they reach beyond the dream.

[Pre-Chorus] Prepare their guards, raise every wall, Yet strength alone won’t save them all. The brightest lights will one day dim, But in their wake, a song begins.

[Chorus] Remnants of light, they carry on, Through shattered peace and breaking dawn. With dust in hand, they forge their way, Though time forgets, they speak their name. When shadows rise to drown the soul, Even the smallest spark makes them whole. Remnants of light, don’t fade away, They are the hope that finds its way.

[Bridge] There is no victory in strength alone… But perhaps, it lies in simpler things… In honest hearts, where dreams are sown. The truth in them… the will to grow.

[Final Chorus] Remnants of light, they rise again, From dust to stars, from now to then. They are not just what’s left behind, But dreams reborn, in soul and mind. When darkness falls and all seems lost, Remember what they’re fighting for. Remnants of light, these stories stay, And guide the world… to a brighter day.

[Spoken] These are the souls of Remnant… Let their songs begin….

Well, that’s about all for now. I hope you liked it! Personally, I had fun working on the lyrics for it. This has been Kern of The Demented Ferrets! Where stupidity is at its finest, and level grinds are par for the course, I’ll see you next time… meanwhile, you can check out some of our other content below.

Kresh and Kerns Brand New Disaster Through Eorzea: Final Fantasy XIV Part 3: A Misadventure Reborn.

Part 1
Part 2

Hey everyone, it’s Kern here. Our misadventure continues over on our Twitch channel, and you should make sure to follow us there if you want watch us play the game live, instead of getting VOD updates after the fact. We play all kinds of games, of course. It’s worth it to check us out if you enjoy gameplay content.

In any case, this is part 3 of it for your enjoyment.

The level grinds and havoc continues as we move forward in story quests. Kresh and I spend our time in the Thanalan region, collecting corpses for burial, befriending goblins, and doing a few required instances.

The beastmen in the area are up to no good again as they prepare to summon a primal. They play a dominant role in this particular section of story quests both as friends and as enemies.

Thank you to all Patreon and Twitch Subscribers.

As far as duties are concerned, we enter into Halatali, a level 20 instance. This twisting labyrinthine cavern has been massively nerfed, making it more streamlined and easier to navigate. Completion was decently quick. After that, it’s into The Bowl of Embers to battle Ifrit.

More story line quests and finally collecting our mounts round out the stream, and at the end of the day all’s well that ends well. We didn’t get as much done as we wanted, but that’s what happens when you’re casually playing around and wandering into a bit of trouble, as we certainly did.

The good thing is that with mounts, the grinding will now go a bit faster, thankfully, and we’re looking forward to it.
