Uh, the Doom eternal soundtrack is widely regarded as one of the absolute best game soundtracks ever created.
I've not actually read this whole thing (am about to), neither was I aware of this whole mess, but I'm a massive fan of Mick and the Doom soundtracks. They have hundreds of millions of streams on YouTube in total.
- fleddr 4y agoWell, once you finish reading, you'll understand that the outcome of this project was in fact disappointing. Which was the entire reason for the hate campaign.
- sentientslug 4y agoWhat you are quoting was written by the composer of the soundtrack (Mick Gordon)
- valdiorn 4y agodamn, that is so sad - it's objectively an amazing soundtrack. It's really sad that this whole experience has damaged his perception of his incredible work so badly :(
- mort96 4y agoThe most popular videos on YouTube aren't the officially released OST, they're remixed/remastered versions fixed up by the community. The official OST isn't terrible by any means, it's full of musically great pieces, but it has glaring objective technical flaws and nonsensical song structures. Perfect for management to think "It's good enough, ship it" while the artist behind it thinks "This is garbage, my reputation is ruined" and the community gets up in arms about its shortcomings. Especially when the community expects something on the level of the DOOM 2016 OST.
- sentientslug 4y agoSorry - I was actually incorrect. I missed the second quotation mark, that was the opinion of the commenter and not of Mick G. My bad!
- mecha_ghidorah 4y agoMinor correction, the Doom (2016) soundtrack is considered one of the absolute best soundtracks ever created. The Eternal one not so much
