The Destiny Soundtrack Is So Good It's Distracting (Destiny)

I saw that article, was extremely amused that the author was uncertain whether Marty was the composer or not (5 minutes and google would suss out that the soundtrack was finished a while ago).

Any way you slice it Marty can't be replaced, whoever takes over might be good, or even great, but IMO there's only 2 composers who's work has been indispensable to their respective companies and that's Marty with Bungie, and Nobuo Uematsu for Square. Both are responsible for consistently elevating their games storytelling beyond what only words or voice acting are capable of doing. Other composers have done great work, sometimes even classic work, but not at the same combination of quality and longevity as those 2 (in my humble opinion, of course).
