the ost

[Jon]

should i buy it? or should i buy somthing else

[Albcatmastercat]

If you like the game's music, sure, buy it.

[Blargo]

I don't really think this is something someone else can answer for you.
It's your money.

[fall]

Don't buy it, you can get tools to extract the music.
Tbh I think it's scummy that they're charging people the same money for the game, for the OST.

Extracting the music like that is piracy, though.

The music pack is there if you want to support the devs some more.

By your logic, no one should buy any games since they can be torrented.

There's literally a thread for the tool on the TCF, If they cared they'd take it down.
Also the "support the devs" argument is heavlity flawed in this instance, They've already made MILLIONS, Probably over 60 Million quid off of Terraria, Then they're going to charge the Entire game again, just for the sound track.

And that's Not my logic at all, I never said that. I said that it's scummy that they've made millions and are now charing the Same just for the soundtrack.

I'm torn on this. You've bought the game and thus have access to the files. Part of those files are the music files. Technically you can access them already. Charging again for them is gray for me. When you buy the game part of the money is/should already be going to the creator of the music. I don't really see it as illegitmate to access the sound files and extract the songs. It becomes illegal when you share those files, however.

I won't show how, other's already have videos on how to change or locate the music wavebanks.

yeah, and they've made BUCKS off this game, it's just greedy to charge that much for the music...

Is the OST really that expensive?
Also, that doesn't make the argument flawed. You can still support them even if they made millions.

Only a lawyer could give a real answer, but by buying the game you also have reasonable access. I don't see it the same as illegal piracy. You are essentially double supporting since you've bought the game. I can see both sides of the argument but it comes down to legality.

I only know for sure that sharing them would be illegal. Personal use I am not sure.

Gray areas are really annoying at times, eh?

Especially when DMCA and similar laws are so messy (<_>). By purchasing the game I have full access to the wavebank file. So I could see it being argued as legal for personal use. Then you have to factor in how it works buying games on steam as "ownership" of a steam game is a bit different than buying the game independently.

you just had to do some work to get the music playing
