Old School Vid tip (Marathon) (Gaming)
In my opinion, no music makes the game better. It's more atmospheric and creepy that way. Bungie definitely made the right decision to ditch music in favor of ambient sounds in M2 and Infinity.
Try it out and see.
I, respectfully, completely disagree with everything you just said.And since we're giving our opinions, yeah, I've played more than my fair share of M2 and Infinity. Music doesn't need to (and didn't at all in M2 and Infinity) fill every moment, but when it's there it can certainly add to the "atmosphere and creepy". I mean, c'mon, the popularity of the music in Halo is a testament to this, the fact that soundtracks even exist and sold really well for those games indicates that a lot of people enjoy it when it's done well.
We are all entitled to our opinions :-)
Here's mine:
1. The marathon music kind of sucks anyway.
2. It's MIDI, and due to instrument changes between QT versions, it sounds like shit unless you play it on OS 7, which is kind of hard in this day and age.
3. No music is creepier.
4. Marathon's music just plays and loops repeatedly, so it DOES fill every moment.
