My bad. So, again: Lol wut ? Every theme is Odyssey was brand new, every idea, style, even songs with lyrics and instrumenrs never used before. How can you describe it as "generic" ? Jump Up, Super star star has a unique style never featured in a Mario game, Steam Garden's theme uses '60s sounds, again, never heard before, the ending theme is kind of lackluster but still very original for a Mario game. |
I knew you wouldn't let it pass xD
Maybe "generic" was not the correct word for what I meant.
What I wanted to say is that, in my opinion, Super Mario Odyssey soundtrack is pretty forgettable overall. I can't remember almost any tunes besides Jump Up Super Star, the Steam Garden's theme and the Fossil Falls theme. The soundtrack had very little impact on me while I was playing. Which was a huge contrast with Super Mario 3D World (and both Galaxy games, but those play on a league of their own). I can remember almost the entire soundtrack of that game (which by the way, has more unique themes and more personality than one might think) because it was just awesome with that big band style ^^
Odyssey soundtrack was pretty meh. It just didn't have enough power (to me at least).
BTW, I know that you said it because I called it "generic", but now that I have clarified what I meant: New and unique is not always better in my book.
