Is it just me or is the soundtrack in this game underwhelming as fuck?

One thing I always loved about souls games is their ability to make wide varieties of great sounding compositions for their bosses, whether it be a raging medieval choir to soothing piano compositions. I honestly can't pick one track that stick out from this game, and to be honest, the mechanics in the boss battles are pretty underwhelming too.

This was supposed to be your magnum opus miyazaki, the fuck happened?

I don't think you dense fan boys understand. I said underwhelming in the sense that the song variety has a wide range.

Bloodborne's are all just sickdark medieval choirs going ham.

Looks like I was right, suck miyazaki's cockles harder you plague-ridden rats.

Funny because i though DaS1's soundtrack all sounded too samey, being orchestral chanting most of the time. If you asked me to listen to the tracks of the Demon's Ruin and Izalith bosses and identify them I probably wouldn't be able to do it.

There's a couple of memorable tracks, same as Dark Souls. Its probably just differing taste brah.

Gascoigne, Gehrman, Wet Nurse, Micolash and all the DLC bosses have memorable tracks to varying extents, though I have a soft spot for the Living Failures OST. They were the worst boss in the DLC but their theme speaks to me on a personal level. Its just neat.

Say what you want about the music, but the bosses are top notch, and easily the best in the series. They actually have phases, multiple avenues to victory, have tight well-represented hitboxes (a departure from the series), you can't one-shot half of them (another departure from Souls), etc.

Just look at Allant, Gwyn, Gherman;

>Allant: generic weeb elder statesman that zips around the screen. Can be one-shot by Firestorm, and loses like 10% of his HP to any cursed weapon swipe (notably hammer, hilt, kat) or LW Blueblood. Good, but HP pool was way too low.

>Gwyn: generic weeb elder statesman that hops around the screen. Tried to implement a parry mechanic and spoiled the fight completely. Garbage.

>Gherman: generic weeb elder statesman that zips around the screen. Multiple phases, each changes the fight drastically. Firearms can parry him, but never trivialize the fight. Has a proper HP pool and can't be one shot.

SotC won countless awards for the amazing music and it even told a story with the music (like how it changes with Wander, to start out heroic but ends on a very somber note).

For example

The Opened Way
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWB8P4jbsAA

Demise of the Ritual
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTjTs5AbVIg

I can't think of a single track in Bloodborne/Old Hunter that even compares. Then if we look at the Bloodborne/Old Hunters sountrack as a whole it pales to the one in SotC.
>>
>>320941427
I can't take a picture of it m8

What do you want me to say? The final boss is in the hunter's dream and if you have used the three umbilical cords you can fight the true final boss, become a squid and the Doll picks you up?

The same could be said of other games really. I'm not talking about self-imposed challenges I'm talking about general difficulty. The difficulty of Bloodborne was easy for a Souls game and pretty average for a video game overall. It wasn't more satisfying because of it

Well that goes without saying?
You could argue that for literally anything, that's why it's so unbelievably stupid. Any videogame song could be thrust into countless other videogames or even movies and you wouldn't notice.
>>
>>320941437
Most high difficulty modes only make the game's worse because just like easy modes they aren't properly balanced for them.

Hell look at Dragon's Dogma Hard Mode which only makes everything nearly one shot you (even bats which are almost impossible to avoid) and increases stamina usage by double. Ooooo so challenging.

A good intermediate in difficulty is usually best and to be honest I would rather have difficulty like Ninja Gaiden Black where damage doesn't really change that much but what is thrown at you changes. Enemies change, boss fights have different adds or moves used, etc.
Need more of that shit pronto.
>>
>>320945113

>>320937221
Personally it's my favourite of all the Souls-esque games. Hail the Nightmare especially is fucking chilling the first time you get put in that fucked up village.

Other favourites are Ebrietas, Gascoignes theme, and Gehrman.

I'm not one of the people that was splurging over it. I just figured I'd jump in to point out your broken metric. If you have the mindset "well, it can be used somewhere else", then you might as well throw all music in the shitter.
