She is fine sometimes like with Aldia, but her overall input is so generic movie orchestra I legitimately can't remember a single one. Even soul of cinder.

BB is the only from game with a good ost

Ancestor Spirit theme from Elden Ring
You don't get to hear it because the boss wasn't strong.
Now she gets haters because nobody heard the song
>>
>>730844441
BB was great because it was fresh and the orchestra fit the tone of the game. The problem is they kept doing the same thing since then. The fucking OOOOOOOHHH AAAAAAAAHHHH choirs in every other track and forced "epicness" became lame as fuck. The old Demon's and DS1 soundtracks made with samples and shit are much more kino, they had actual memorable melodies.
>>
>>730844281
majula is literally the only good from software track
>>
>>730844719
>BB was great because it was fresh
for you. they did orchestral music in 3 games before that.
>>
>>730844759
None of the previous souls games had a real orchestra, which I pointed out in my post. Dumbass.
>>
Tsukasa saitoh was their best
>>
>>730844907
>real
What do you even mean? Just because it was synthesized orchestras it's different to you?
>>

>>730844281
I've been saying this for years. The only weaker link than the music in the fromsoft chain is characterization.
>>
>>730844727
ancestor spirit, elden ring theme, ds3 theme, firelink shrine theme, and dark souls 1 character creation theme are all 10/10 as well
>>
>>730845016
Yes, it is very different if you're not half deaf. The usage of a real orchestra also significantly changed the style of compositions.
>>
>>730845280
Nah. Just say Bloodborne was your first Fromsoft game so it felt fresh.
>>
>>730844281
Eh I'd bend her over a table.
>>
>>730845473
she's so weirdly hot
>>
>>730845332
My first was DS in 2011. I get it, you have no ear for music, it's not a big deal.
>>730844727
There's plenty of good shit. Off the top of my head: Things Betwixt, Firelink Shrine (even though it's a ripoff of Lost soundtrack), Lord of Cinder, Fool's Idol, Old Monk, Maiden Astraea.
>>
>>730845658
No. You also need to quit tacking -borne at the end of every genre.
>>
>>730844719
DS1 was made by someones else, it was the guy who made the golden sun OST, different composer all together, not sure why they fired him

what happened to the composers from the King's Field games? did they retire? why can't Fromsoft games have "gamey" music like this anymore?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKIfj33bLh8
not including AC6, all of the music they've put out for their games since Dark Souls has been some kind of orchestra/chorus slop.
>>
>>730846915
You probably won't accept this but the orchestral music for dark souls IS gamey.
>>
>>730846915
Dark souls 2 doesn't spam orchestra, the vendrick theme is some cord stuff, not sure how to describe it

Ok i found him, his name is Motoi sakuraba, he composed Dark souls 1 and 2, she came in with dark souls 3 onward

How do we feel about him?
>>
>>730844281
Let me guess, you love e33 music?
>>
>>730844281
Her only good tracks were Gael’s theme and the DS3 main menu. Elden Ring had nothing memorable except Mohg’s theme, which wasn’t even hers (Gundyr composer IIRC).
>>
>>730847548
I feel bad for him since he also composed Kid Icarus too and he gets slammed with "generic orchestral slop" all the time when a lot of his other works have melodies too.

Kenji yamamoto should compose the next Armored core, my boy was blacklisted enough, give him a chance

Because soulless musicians that can't write good melodies have been coping for thousands of years.
>>
>>730844281
>but her overall input is so generic movie orchestra
She has a very distinct style, you must be retarded if you can't pick up on it. The problem is that she hasn't meaningfully evolved her style so a lot of her compositions sound like worse versions of Sir Alonne's theme. But to call her output "generic movie orchestra" is some 80 IQ caveman shit.
>>
>>730849659
No he is right, her output in Elden ring was generic, nothing memorable
>>
>>730844281
Guardian Ape was cool tho
>>
>>730844971
Agreed. Underrated genius.

Demon's Souls is the only game with a memorable OST
>>
>>730844281
i like the alonne theme. and the abyss watchers theme
>>
>>730844727
spoken like a zoomie miyazaki dickrider. the only fromsoft games you've played are souls games, you dumb little faggot
>>
How can you not love the Demon of Hatred music? I don't understand her haters. She's immensely talented.
>>
>>730850712
she composed for sekiro? i thought someone else did. no orchestra stuff in that game
>>
>>730844281
She
is an evil whore.

Yeah no shit.

https://youtu.be/Lt0lVEOA7ic
>>
>>730850801
Yes, it's probably her best soundtrack.
>>
>>730844281
Nah I thought Soul of Cinder was incredible, ditto Twin Prices, and Rennala's theme is lovely.
>>730847548
He's very much so objectively good, but if I had my way he'd never touch a Souls game again. There's a grand nature that was introduced with BB and DS3, that has been honed and refined with Elden Ring and Elden Ring Nightreign that I couldn't do without again. Compare Nameless King, which is a fine track on its own - very minimalist, and a really cool harpsichord - but the difference between NK's theme and the Nightlords he's fought before, Fulghor and Heolstor, is quite apparent. I think Shoi Miyazawa and Tsukasa Saitoh, Elden Ring and Nightreign's primary composers, have hit a sweetspot that's been building since Dark Souls 3.
>>
>>730851101
I really did not like DS3 OST but ER had some real good stuff especially with the environmental music.

Never played that game but i'm willing to give it a shot just to listen to his music
>>
>>730844281
im convinced that the people hating on fromsoftware music are just brown people adjacent to the browns who hate classical.
I saw people on /v/ say that >>730845054 is shit, i cant take you seriously if you dont admit that it is at least decent.
>>
>>730851719
They're just dumbs.
