The music variety is sort of limited like the game's theme itself. It sounds amazing but it doesn't keep up in variety with a game of Chrono Cross' caliber which I assume what Xenoblade is.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gumt8xfnspk JRPG's typically have their funny, tragic, epic and magical moments whereas DK does not enjoy the same range of expression. Its missing the "mood-swings" Sure, its music is diverse to some extent but it is constrained by the game's limited themes as far as impressions go. I admit I was too judgemental in saying a single-layered game can't beat a multi-layered one... for instance Shadow of The Colossus doesn't have the diversity of a JRPG yet its OSTs completely thrash 90% of JPRG's. Maybe because it was epic and melancholic, two themes I'm a total sucker for! so yeah.. |
I'd actually say DK does have tunes that are upbeat and happy, others that are melancholy, others that are goofy, others that are dark and intimidating, etc.
