Here we post game series where the music get's an immediate mute out of embarrassment if another human enters the room.

Pretty much anything with lyrics is going to be the staple.

I'll start with the obvious example.

Black Tar is indeed not my favourite music in Xenoblade X. But if you give this game a chance, the OST will start to grow on you. Some tracks are fantastic.

>>382750942
Nope. Never played DQ.
I just think Uematsu's work in the Final Fantasy series is generic and forgettable as fuck. They used to be decent on the NES when he composed more simple tunes but after tech started progressing and he had to up his game the music just started to sound really generic from the SNES-era onwards most of the time.
>>
>>382750942
>>382750808
Uematsu is really past his prime. A lot of his older tracks are great though, and I'm of the opinion that the main theme of FFVII is legitimately a fantastic piece of music and probably one of the best original compositions ever put into a game.

The only bad Sonic music exists in games that are already bad and thus can't be ruined by it, such as Chronicles.

>>
>>382754005

Luckily that's a mashup of several songs from the game, and one that unfortunately brings back VERY bad memories but I digress, it's more like 3 or 4 of the game's songs mashed together rather than one proper clusterfuck of a tune. That said, even if you did hear the songs individually in context they'd be in DS-tier sound quality.

>music with lyrics combined with loud gitars just seems too distracting for me
Maybe that's cause you listen to Rock/Metal?


>the music seems to take center stage in the adventure games
The only level with vocal music is City Escape and Knuckles' levels in SA2(Adventure doesn't have any levels with Vocal Music btw)


>also music should complement the level's scenery
But it does pretty well
>sonic's music seems to be more based on the story than actually fitting the scenery
Depends on the track but Sonic music has always been pretty freestyle, although rarely did it found it unfitting. Either way it's irrelevant when it comes to judging the quality of the music itself. And as for being in the background/center Sonic has always had a stong musical identity since Sonic 1. Just go play something like Marble Zone for example...the music is so strong.

>just singing that you're escaping a city doesn't automatically mean the music fits a city
What? I think that pop rock-kinda track fits pretty well with the situation it's also pretty appropriate for the times the game came out.
>>
>>382749903
Why are those two always the examples for good music from SA2 when the game is so full of better tracks? Here, I'll even post them

>just singing that you're escaping a city doesn't automatically mean the music fits a city
While this statement is technically true, I think the SA games (especially 2) do a really good job of making the songs fit their stages and the gameplay of each type of stage. Sonic's are fast paced and upbeat, Knuckles are more reserved and atmospheric, etc.

Also, I like them putting story-relevant stuff in the song lyrics, as long as it's not blatantly obvious that they're singing about Sonic or whatever. It's something I wish more games did. I always felt like the writers in these games had a lot of story content, character motivations, and just ideas in general that they couldn't really work into the cutscenes so a lot of them are shown through the song lyrics instead.
>>
>>382755596
I don't know...I associate rock(especially fast catchy pop-rock) with Urban settings in sunny days at noon(which is what City Escape feels like, so Sonic Team composers knew their shit). It's never felt out of place whatsoever for me.

It should've just been used for boss fights. When you listen to the song on its own, it's amazing like every other track in Unleashed. Just that when it plays the same 10 seconds of the song if you run into one single enemy every time, it gets repetitive.
