| Nuvendil said: The soundtrack here does have me concerned. It has such tonal inconsistency. Now this can work if the oddities are confined to specific scenarios. Xenoblade Chronicles, while it didn't have rap, did have songs that stick out as odd if the whole soundtrack is just played on CD. But when contextualized by the game - whether just having it in battle or in a cutscene - it all fits together. But this will be harder to do with these pop and rap vocals. I mean, listen to the other songs in the soundtrack. You have an opera piece, the main theme is an orchestra with choir vocals, the second song in the E3 2014 soundtrack is another orchestra piece. The rap in particular sticks out as jarring though. |
Well it involves a place called New Los Angeles. Of course there will be all sorts of different music. It would be odd if it was all fantasy music.
