Thoughts on Elden ring OST?

[Jester]

I think it's a huge miss. I haven't beaten the game yet but I have yet to hear a memorable track other than the menu screen and I am very,very huge on music pumping me up in boss fights. It's largely my reason for playing their games. Granted I haven't been going against main bosses and been fighting their asset dump bosses but still Margit OST is eh. So I was very concerned to what I'm about to expect and been listening to their entire soundtrack here and there regardless of spoiler in the titles and....it was an underwhelming listening session. I wasn't listening to each one fully so it might be unfair to judge it but I think there's been one tracks that somewhat caught my ear and thats the trailer music. Godfrey or something. I have seen people say the series is just a generic orchestra and I had always disagreed but for this game I'm inclined to agree. Dark souls 3 had millions of views on their soundtrack and it was very popular on launch already. Rightfully so it had a lot of bangers whether you don't like the epic direction. Bloodborne is pretty godly too so what happened here? Why does it feel underwhelming to me? What are your thoughts? Am I wrong? Care to recommend me a track in the game which you think is the best I will give it a second listen. I also might have a change of heart if I actually got to hear music in game so who knows.

Very underwhelming. My favorite track is the capital ambient music... that one is an absolute classic. But the rest is mostly forgettable.

I listened to some of the DS3 OST yesterday like the Deacons music, the Lothric Princes, and the Abyss Watchers, and I can safely say that the Elden Ring OST pales in comparison.

I think this game overall has the most favorites from a game in this series.
I love:
-Radahn
-Tree Sentinel
-Morgot
-Caelid
-Capital
-Radagon
-Mohg
-Godskin Apostles
All those themes are so amazing to me, versus other souls games where it's usually 3 tracks that click with me and I like, this game has a lot more.

And there's even better ones in the DLC for DS3.

generic garbage like always. for some reason, the company from hires to do their music, does NOTHING but generic bottom tier trash fire orchestral tracks that all sound slightly different, but more or less identical. its all boring and pointless, with tons of generic swelling violins and generic incomprehensible "ahhh"'iing. it loses any sort of impact when thats ALL you hear the entire game, literally anytime you agro anything. id love some nice 80's-90's death metal tracks in my souls games, but mikiziki has a hardon for generic garbage for some reason.

I really like the music in the game. its falls perfect into the world environment and set the mood. sure there are no songs i would listen to on youtube, but the music is fantastic for the narrative in the setting.

60 hours with the game and not a single memorable ost. Man what happened to the soundtrack for this game. It's been nothing but repeat or forgettable ones. Even the bosses you would think will have their own ost uses the same forgettable music. Shame really.

[Kain]

It's aight, like the theme song. But, nothing comes close to Gael theme.

[MingQWERTY]

Not as good as the ones from previous From titles. The problem for me comes from the fact that the ost in this game isn't as bombastic or tragic as the ones from Dark Souls 3 or Bloodborne. But I think the ost for this game just fits the environment better. It's fair to say that I was a little disappointed at the music but it doesn't mean I hate them or that they are forgettable. Lichdragon Fortissax, Morgott the Omen King, Rykard the Lord of Blasphemy, Mohg the Lord of Blood, Godrick the Grafted, Ancestor Spirit, Starscourge Radahn are all extremely good and they fit the boss or their environment perfectly.

I'm also not done with the entire game and have refused to listen to the ost of the bosses that comes later (just recently arrived at the Mountaintops) so I'll look forward to not only fight those great enemies but also to experience their themes.

Tbh godskin apostle song is the only one i like.... All the rest of the music kinda sucks compared to dark souls games.

When the host is at the top of a mountain in Liurnia and I'm an invader, spawning in at the very bottom: *Cue epic invader battle theme for 2 minutes while I look around for where the mountain starts*

[JudasPhysicist]

It doesn't have enough tracks to carry a 100+ hours experience I'm afraid.

Much like the re-used bosses, the same tracks get re-used over and over again. And like many other people said, there aren't any killer bangers like there was in DS1 & 2.

[Jester]

5 months later and still poor views. Dark Souls 3 and Bloodborne still reign supreme

[Joeycentral]

I feel it takes time for it to kind of kick in. First OST that stood out to me was Godrick's. But after a while, more started to trickle in. Are they as good as DS3's? Probably not.

[BenzoSt]

The only other souls game I've played is DS3. Overall, I found the boss music in DS3 much better and more memorable and varied. However, I think the ambient (non-boss) music in Elden Ring is very good; it doesn't draw much attention to itself, but it just fits into the game appropriately.

[Fineous🔥]

Hmm i loved it, specially last fight, Mogh and more i cant remember now.
From Dork souls 3 i only liked Yhorn, Wolnir and Sulyvahn.

2 hit the spot for me. Sir Alonne theme is probably the best boss soundtrack ever and the fume knight was also amazing.

Edit: Forgot about Bloodborne....as someone with a clue about latin Laurence theme and others with latin lyrics mindblowed me.
