Imagine being this wrong

wtf are those glasses

Who the fuck cares about music?
Who the fuck cares about video games?
Who the fuck cares about video game music?

Also Whang is bretty cool, good content

Do you remember the music to Mario Bros?

Do you remember the music to Anthem?

He's not wrong, a quick video explainer: youtube.com/watch?v=CKgHrz_Wv6o

*Western video game and movie soundtracks are less memerable than in the past
ftfy

he's right though

>listening to soundtracks
its literally accompaniment to the visuals, you've lost half the intent when you listen to it out of context

do do do, do do do do, doo do dodo dododo

I remember the music to morrowind better than any.
Which also happens to be the music from oblivion and skyrim, but whatever

music is important in all mediums whether you like it or not.

ahem

FUCK AMBIENCE

FUCK MOOD SETTING

AND FUCK ORCHESTRAS

give me a tldr of fantanos opinion of automata music

>minimal
hardly

It's part of the atmosphere, nothing wrong with remembering an atmosphere.

Think of the last game you played that you actually liked

Can you remember any songs?

Sort of agree, Video game music is either trying to be SO DEEP AND AMBIENT or SO EPIC ORCHESTRAL and it's cringe.
Also the original NieRs OST was miles better than Nier Automatas and I dunno why people suck off automata for having a "good soundtrack" when half of the good songs were ones they remade from the original

iirc he didn't mention nier directly he just said that nowadays game soundtracks are used to accompany a game, almost like a film, and you can't fault them for that

Yea Forums here, the only thing you need to know is that videogame soundtracks are the guetto crack niggers of the music world.

Decent video explaining why music in the movie industry is largely shit now.
I'd say music in vidya nowadays still has more memorable music than movies.

There are less /vp/ threads up right now than there are smash threads up at any given time, stop being so asshurt over nothing

reminder the best soundtracks for visual or interactive mediums are ones you don't really notice when actually experiencing them, but actively improve the atmosphere.

You could at least compare a popular series to a popular modern game cherry picker.

He's not entirely wrong, because no one gives a crap about FUCKING WEEB SHIT

How exactly is he a Contranian when it comes to music? Also it's his job to listen to all sorts of music to get an understanding of it

Absolutely retarded comparison

I wish he would go back to talking about more than just hip hop and pop. I partially blame him for making Yea Forums unusable.

yeah but i would say that most ost's back then had more care put into them then the soundtracks that are being made now. I'm now saying i couldn't name you songs from recent games I could name you songs from minecraft or soulsborne or nu-gow but games that have soundtracks as good of these nowadays are rare.

Just recently Ace Combat 7 had a fantastic OST. Sekiro will more than likely have a great soundtrack as well.

We were talking about Whang. Not Fantano.

Game was fun in coop but they completely butchered the pacing with all the forced teleports.
Could've been so much better, not amazing but better.

>Actually thinking Melon head is right in anything

I agree with WhangZhang, it's all just generic orchestral garbage for dogs and subhumans

I agree. The “ORCHESTRA AND LATIN CHORUS” and “METAL MUSIC WITH CHEESY LYRICS” were great for the first few times but now that every edgy wanna be 2deep4u game uses it, it’s gotten stale.

Post some vidya music lads youtube.com/watch?v=I7v4bJQTRcU

Minecraft has the best OST of this decade.

Is the Killing Floor director a christian or something? Demon Hunter are a christian band and so are Living Sacrifice.

Anthony is a leftist cuck

And these aren't even all of the God-tier tracks. To pretend Automata's OST isn't fantastic is pure contrarianism. Nier's OST still is better, sure, but thats because it is quite possibly the greatest videogame OST ever made.

music reviews are pretty retarded
why do you need someones opinion on music, just listen to it

I don't claim to know why but orchestral shit is boring and trite and it's absolutely rife in modern media. So he's not entirely wrong.

>hating on Whang but watching Fantano

Get your priorities straight, Whang is at least a real oldfag.

That's only true of western games, they've just taken the same road as western film music. Japanese games take music as seriously as they ever have

Just because you don't seek out good soundtracks doesn't mean they aren't there. Nier:A, A Hat in Time, Ace Combat 7, and Astrobot are some standouts within just the past two years. And even if you go to the "western game music sucs hurr," theres still a good chance that one of your favorite Jap soundtracks has a Western composer. Scottish Composer Kenneth Young at the helm for Astrobot, LBP, and Tearaway, and Jamie Christopherson for Metal Gear Rising, which is such a great OST, I can stop there

Whang is right. The vast majority of movie/vidya scores are entirely forgettable. It's not that they're bad music but they're only meant for the moment that they play at in the context of the vidya. Nier and Automata are some of the exceptions to this, where the music is catchy on its own. I think this really only applies to AAAs though. You still get some sweet music in indieshit.

Eternally based. Check out their best bops too:

This song was great

He's right, just because there's a couple notable outliers, the vast majority of the AAA industry has completely unremarkable soundtracks.

Wait, there are people who really think that Nier: A's soundtrack is shit? I mean, it pales in comparison to the original Nier and it might be overrated, but to think that it's actually bad seems strange to me.

I liked Hunk's song

I'll try.

It's mediocre. It starts being bad because soifilled cucks are latching onto it.

>soifilled cucks
Cringe

Hell fucking yeah, it's become a bit of a meme I suppose but this OST is fanfuckingtastic.

To answer your question, music becomes rememberable at least for me when attached to strong emotions which some vidya can portray fantastically. Automata is godlike at this. Undertale did it quite well too, Hopes and Dreams comes to mind as an absolute blast at the end of the journey. Fuck I could even point to GTA V as having a solid OST, that Turbulence theme build up when hijacking the plane is awesome. Rockstar nailed it again in RDR2 with May I?

>It's mediocre
By what standards? These things should be relative to other video games, and it definitely stands out from most. Your standards very fucked up.

This is true, most video games nowadays default to the same exact soundtrack. If you pick something from the 90's you can not only know what franchise it is just by listening to the SoundFont, but you can also guess which entry in the franchise it was.

>Your standards very fucked up
ooga booga

My 2 cents and I don't know about music, but it is boring these days, I think it has to do with the composition, it's as if most music today share the same composition and structure. I can tell when someone is really creative and does something great, like Jesper Kyd or when I listened to Aphex Twin.

Anthony Fagtano, kill yourself, kikenigger

It's memorable but I thought it was too low key. I'm disappointed we didn't get more music like the reveal trailer. The song is still in the game but they removed all the percussion

fr*ck yeah!

>nitpicked for leaving out a word, subject dropped
Where do retards like you come from? Clearly, shitposting is the only thing you enjoy.

Someone explain, why do so many people hate Fantano? Only video of I ever saw of him was when he had Sam Hyde as a guest on a podcast, and he seemed ok there.

But that's wrong. There are far more 10/10 tracks from recent times in games than ever in the 90's for example.

I just found it hilarious because you sounded like a stereotypical Nigger Asstomata fan.
Take that stick out of your ass.

Last games I enjoyed were NieR Automata, DOOM and Touhou, so yes, I do remember their music quite well.

All you need to hear is one of Fagtano's opinions on a matter that you have even an inkling of knowledge in.
As soon as you hear one of his opinions on something not music related you'll quickly question his authenticity as a music critic as well.
Fagtano is actually a fucking idiot, and I wonder if any of the music he suggested to me was any good or if I was just to stupid to realize I was being played?

What did Fantano say about it? This is from the videos where he argues with people

>it's as if most music today share the same composition and structure. I can tell when someone is really creative and does something great, like Jesper Kyd or when I listened to Aphex Twin.
Because majority of most popular music made today is just a 4:4 beat made in fruit loops by some basement producer with some mumble rap thrown over the top

generic orchestral mediocrity

he gave their favorite album a low score

>should be relative to other video games
Uh, no. Video game music should be held to the same relative standard that music in general is. Note that this is not me saying that Nier A has bad music even though I only really liked "Birth of a Wish" and "End of the Unknown"'

He's just annoying and fun to make fun of. He's still better than a lot of music reviewers on youtube though

Maybe they're just being contrarian. I think it's an amazing soundtrack.

very epic

Yeah, Bloodborne, Nier: A, RDR2 and many indie games have great OSTs, but most AAA games are generic orchestral music.

His general taste in music has become rather generic to pander to a youtube audience and his reviews are often vapid.

And he gave my favourite artist a shit score reeeeeeeeeeeeeee

the OP is about critic opinions, just go to a thread that's not about flies eating shit.
