>Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Music Production Is Complete; 300

>>387149617
did the original xenoblade have anywhere near as many people working on its music?

>>387149617
>300 Musicians Involved

I don't like the sound of that. Too many chefs in the kitchen spoil the soup you know?

>food analogy

>>387151306
It's a classic saying.

>>387151196
You made the same food analogy yesterday, you've gotta have some new material to stay fresh.

>>387151363
Wasn't it "spoil the broth"?

>>387151196
Its not 300 composers its 300 musicians.

>No Sawano

>>387151464
I looked it up, you're right, it's "Too many cooks spoil the broth."

>>387151412
Jokes on you, this is the first time in many years i've used that saying.

>>387151629
Isn't that the "We're STUCK ON A DIFFERENT PLANET!" guy?

>>387149617
Too bad it's going to be wasted on this game. I have no hope for it so far, the character designs are fucking terrible compared to XC1, or hell even XCX. The dub sounds fucking bad so far too, with the main character not showing any of the emotion Adam Howden did for Shulk. The artstyle somehow made worse potato faces than XCX, and the framerate looks god-awful.

>>387149617
300 musicians won't make things better by default, the people from MONACA get praised all the time for their soundtracks and the team is composed of 15 people, and most of the time their soundtracks don't even use them all, hell, sometimes it's Keichi Okabe alone with other 3 people taking care of sampling and recording.

>>387151545
I missed that admittedly, but that's still a whole lot of people for a single aspect of that game.

>>387151629
I love X's soundtrack but Sawano is too distinct to mingle his tracks with those of someone like Mitsuda. It's way better if they keep him out of this and let him return as the main and/or only composer of X2 whenever they make it.

>>387151708
off course

Absolute genius

>>387149617
300 musicians is not something to gloat when DOOM's soundtrack won an award, and it was made by a dude with electronic samples and his guitar.

>>387151915
No, even though he made amazing tracks in XCX (Noctilum is too fucking good) he also did a lot shitty decisions in it.
Sound design also garbage and the fact that ost wasn't made around looping itself flawlessy didn't help it. He sould stay away from video games.

>>387152101
Doom's soundtrack was fucking overrated. That eletric drum sample was cancer in its OST.

>>387152118
>Sound design also garbage
That's not exactly on Sawano himself, is it? Either way, I now associate X with his music, seeing him gone from a sequel would be as disappointing to me as going from Revo to Ryo in Bravely was.

>>387152101
>DOOM's soundtrack won an award, and it was made by a dude with electronic samples and his guitar.
while this is true a lot more went into it than just those two things. The sound designer did all sorts of crazy shit to get the heavy effect, including making use of soviet era synths

>>387152428
It's not entirely his, but he's not completely innocent in the matter either. He suggested the vocal tracks in cutscenes and like I said the tracks dln't leave much room for it to loop back.

>>387152734
BRING IT ON DOWN ROCK ROCK ROCK
SHAKE IT UP UP TAP TOP TOP

>>387152118
his soundtrack was fine, the way the designers incorporated his music was fucking awful

>>387152896
>Fine

It wasn't "fine" by any means, get out of here

>>387153436
You're right, it was great.

>mfw I know they'll never top Dunban in terms of character design.

He was such a god tier character, if only they didn't blow their load that early and left us with forgettable characters in X.

>>387154132
Really feels like they cut XCX in half. It probably would have been my all time favourite if Takahashi completely did what he wanted for XCX.

>>387154132
Dunban was a character design recycled for the second time, and they recycled him again in X. Honestly I'll be surprised if they don't have a not-Citan in 2.
