OST Update - Main Theme V1
-
@Prometheus I do like the track, it has an interesting flow, just enough energy without being a battle hymn. But as a main theme... I am not sure. You have to have a catchy tune, something you can hum and other people would know what it is. The opening song for Everquest.... the March of the Star Destroyer... you know what I am talking about. I haven't loaded up EQ in years and haven't played it daily in over a decade but I can still whistle and hum the entire song.
Never underestimate the power of a song. The original Diablo Tristram Village music is one of the most magical songs ever made, just listening to it brings back vivid memories of the game, its not the intro but I would say it was the main song for that game. If you can get even the first 10 seconds to have a catchy tune you will be in the right direction. Even dumpster fire games like Earth and Beyond had a catchy tune that I can fully remember... even more than the game itself in that case.
Love this intro.

love this!

For me is neat too but nothing more extraordinary like:
(if there is a 10 hours video on youtube there is a reason!)
Is missing a bit of character\body to be remembered, is good for a map\dungeon or login screen intro but pretty flat to be remembered.. missing some vibe..

I think the mix and the composition is very good! I like the theme you developped but I agree with the others that it does not stay in the ears... I can add it sounds like ordinary MMO since it's kind of a war theme.
It's maybe better for a main theme if you can easily remember or sing it. you are on a good way btw

i like this soundtrack very much
its dark and powerful with hope and is making excited to fightit reminds me of skyrim and this sound was a masterpiece
-
A very pleasant and epic soundtrack, it would be interesting to listen to all of you impatiently. And what about the account so that the player could himself make a selection of music directly in the game or in the special section in the settings?
-
Has a very "epic" feel/vibe to it

@kellewic said in OST Update - Main Theme V1:
(...)I hope the same attention is paid to environmental sounds, UI sounds, etc.
Which makes me curious, with that music would you even notice subtle environmental sounds? Are footstep or the like planned to be used as 'hints' for people approaching?
-
Surprisingly really good soundtrack. Definitely gets me excited to play. But, as other posters have started, might make it difficult to hear ambient noise like footfalls in certain biomes.
Maybe have the music increase in volume and range as you go near establishments and decrease the further away you get? Just a thought.
-
It's the main theme, probably the music you'll hear at the login screen. It's not the music you'll hear while strolling around on Tartaros.
-
This theme is really FUCKING good! I just keep replaying it over and over. lol
-
You believe right! This is AMAZING!! congrats to Armin Haas, this is a wonderful work
-
That's sound EPIC good job !
-
There is no denying in the fact that it is a (very) good piece of music, but I agree on that maybe something more catchy is better fit to be a main theme, (for example a song with vocals). I do think this fits wonderful into being the theme of a race possibly, or a faction, or a god.
Still, good work Armin

Non vedo l'ora

I just want to say GOOD JOB !
-
This begin to be very interesting
-
The music sounds pretty good.
Makes you want to go on an adventure!
-
wow don't know how I missed this over the weekend. that is a great piece of music to serve as the main theme. I has a great epic feel to it, like something big is going to happen. excellent work! thanks

Huh...
You know what? I think that's pretty good. Really hyped for this game, and this track isn't helping.
