You should check your ears then, maybe the music in old VG appealed more to you because maybe you cant apreciate harmonies as much as simple melodies, so the problem is you. It seems like people go more for poppy sounds and "funny" melodies in VG than orchestrated music with good sound quality and well composed as this one. |
Yet, for many composers, a well arranged, sophisticated orchestral soundtrack does not come at the expence of a strong melodic presence. Joe Hisaishi has already been mentioned in this thread, and I could list a wealth of others, both within the video game industry and without. Hell, even Wagner himself did not forego melody. So why, exactly, should Hamazu?
