| The music IS GREAT | Blitzgreek | 2019-03-02 | Version 1.0 |
The added music is exactly that, what I expected. Its the exact same music, played with better instruments, making its atmosphere even darker. And thats how a Metroid game always should be. | |||
| Music isn't great. | 44100hz | 2015-06-18 | Version 1.0 |
It works properly in every situation I played. I noticed that many tracks become cut off due to lack of fading in/out, but it's rarely much of an issue. The problem I have is that the music is over-dramatic, and hurts the game's feel. It's far too suspenseful. The rhythm or "heartbeat" that kept the game moving is absent. It puts the player on edge, and makes the game feel much colder and less exciting. Also, it's much more dynamic than the original music, which can make it at times silent, and other times distracting. To be fair, it's very hard to top the original soundtrack, but the replacement soundtrack doesn't stand up on its own. | |||
