I wanna say it The music in DD2 is such a downgrade :\

And the game has the same composer as the first. so what happened? The music all has the same melody and sounds like it's being piped in from another room underground. The equalizing is very muted, I strongly guess the reason is to make the music more streamer friendly so it's easier for people to talk over the game.

The music from the Warrens AND the Cove still shake my damn heart, it's incredible stuff! Each zone in DD1 has a unique melody and instrumentation, it goes above and beyond to build atmosphere.

I was disappointed to find the last confession boss has the same music as fighting The Heart. Really. I wanted to feel the horror of fighting this monstrosity - instead I was given trodden ground.

#darkest dungeon #the weald is like the weakest track but the ambience is solid #i care a lot about music and sound design in games #it deserves as much budget and attention as every other aspect of the game #chatwood did an amazing job with the first one how does the sequel cut corners so hard #they also reuse the warrens music but tone it down #a personal crime because the warrens SLAPS #THE PERCUSSION IN THE COVE IS SO CRAZY YALL #THE DUKE OF SOUL IS BACK THERE BANGIN ON EMPTY SHELLS AND CRAB HUSKS HOW THE FUCK DID YOU CAPTURE THAT #the shroud is yoho pirate music we've all heard before like #dont get me started on the tangle or the sprawl #im sorry if i sound like such a hater truly its the opposite #and Town in Chaos #good lord #ive never felt so determined to protect my heroes #strings as your forefront instrument is tried and true but tired #i want music and instruments that make me think HOW the HELL did they make that sound
