@Paultron@D-Droid Which explains why Best OST always goes to gay Western movie games with generic Hollywood goyslop background noise while ignoring that one anime game that produces nothing but bangers.
@D-Droid@Paultron Is there a single actual gamer who'd nominate either of those over Octopath 2? Even if you didn't play it you'd know based off Octopath 1 that it'd have a better OST than the fagslop gayme.
@ArdainianRight@D-Droid@Paultron I'm not even an Octopath fan, and I think there are several JRPGs with even better soundtracks, but obviously it utterly annihilates the Western AAA slop.
@ArdainianRight You need to have a soul to truly appreciate music. Everyone involved with The Game Awards is a subhuman faggot who eats shit and fucks kids, so obviously nobody there can appreciate beautiful music.
@ArdainianRight Also, rewarding TotK for being the second Zelda game is a row to completely fuck up the soundtrack is genuinely contemptible as well. TGA is pure evil, and you're not a gamer if you value its awards.
@ChristiJunior@ArdainianRight@Paultron Just like how games started imitating movies they also started doing the modern Hollywood thing where they just don’t do anything with good scores for ambience at all
@ArdainianRight@Paultron Man most AAA western games have had lame soundtracks for like a decade. Western indie games do a way better job making bops that stick in your head.
@D-Droid@ArdainianRight@ChristiJunior@Paultron I see this happening with anime sound tracks now Most notably dai no daibouken, the original 1991 version uses the actual orchestral version of dq1-3 OST and gives it the classic anime music feel and keeping alot of the same orchestral music for some scenes But in the 2023 remake, the music is dumbed down to shitty generic Hollywood sounding music
@D-Droid@Paultron The West has been culturally and spiritually regressing since the mid-00s or so. This can be witnessed in subtle and not-so-subtle ways in all artistic aspects.
@Jens_Rasmussen@D-Droid@Paultron The process of decline takes about a full generation to really set in. So civilizational standards withered away in the 1960s, but we still managed to have a few decades of fruitful culture before the rot fully set in and we began to witness cultural stagnation. According to Unwin it takes 3 full generations for the civilization to totally collapse, so we may well see a few more decades of this shit worsening.
@Jens_Rasmussen@ArdainianRight@D-Droid the Apollo program will be seen as the last golden age's apotheosis imo, like the victory over Persia for Greece or the era of Trajan for Rome
@ChristiJunior@D-Droid@Paultron I will say Square Enix aggressively taking down a lot of OST tracks most definitely hurt that game's exposure and potential sales, but in spite of that there's still a decent number of covers of many of the best tracks.
the FF14 dev team does certainly deserve to be applauded for their excellence in keeping not one, but two failing companies which at one point dominated in the early aughts
I play it frequently. too bad about the faggots and trannies on this game though, they really do love jerking themselves off in their player housing while shitting alphabet soup garbage everywhere. if they would just stay in their rainbow dildo chambers and not go out and play the game (and suck because their DPS is so small, like their chances of surviving to the ripe old age of 30) that would make me happier
but yeah, they literally have no other product, FF14 is it
@ChristiJunior@ArdainianRight@D-Droid@Paultron unfortunately yes. The only thing holding squeenix up and Sony for that matter, is FF14. EVERYTHING ELSE IS FAILING, INCLUDING NON GAMING SONY PRODUCTS.
