Why is the soundtrack so bad compared to DS3?

[BEOWULF]

Even made by the same person... DS3 had so many memorable ones. I'm disappointed

[DIRTY DEEDS DONE DIRT CHEAP]

Again, I'd like to point out OP said "made by the same person" when it's a new composer entirely and only few tracks are from the old composer...

That said there are tons of amazing tracks here, are we seriously ignoring the following:

Starscourge Radahn
Godfrey the first Elden Lord
Radagon of the golden order
Elden Beast
Rykard Lord of Blasphemy
Godrick the grafted
Godskin duo
Malenia, blade of Miquella

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Mohg, Lord of blood...

without obviously counting the cool soundtrack you get while in Open world or night or when fighting the night bosses...

Of course there's personal taste, but saying that none of the tracks are good (while also mistaking the composer), not gonna lie it's completely wrong to do

Does not change the fact that the soundtrack is worse than the ones in their older games.

The tracks made by Yuka Kitamura for Elden Ring do not reach the level of her previous songs that she made for the older Souls games and Bloodborne.

I beg to differ, then again as I said multiple times, everyone has their own taste, It's okay if you didn't like them but no need to make an entire thread as if it was a fact and not your personal opinion

the altus ambient music is really good

The overwhelming majority here agree with me though.

Regal Ancestor ost and Melania phase 2 we're the only ones I liked. I especially dislike the menu theme/radagon theme.

[Pnume]

Sekiro had the best OST of any Fromsoft games.

DS3 and Elden Rings OST are about as good to me.

Most have been stuck with the music of Bloodborne and Dark Souls 3 for years. Years. Elden Ring has only been around for 2 months. These things take time to get used to. Maybe we'll like it more in the future. Maybe we won't.

Depends on the composer. It can be a hit or miss. And if the chief game director asks for something different than what the composer is skilled in doing. I have no clue about previous games since I've not played them. So I my response is limited.

Personally I think the music is fine. I haven't experienced the game fully on what its soundtrack offers, but I eagerly await playing more when I have time.

If your feel like you're missing out on melodies you enjoy form previous games and wanted a reprise and it wasn't put into Elden Ring. It can feel alien to you. A lot of the time there is an expectation of wanting that music to be as memorable as previous uses from the same composer, but for some it just strike them like it did on earlier attempts.

I've heard remixes variations of music in FF7 Remake and most of the new music I am not fond of. The techno isn't exactly my cup of tea. Given the fact that most of the music from the same composer for decades is classical and orchestrated. Although the remix of music in the OG was done well. Sadly it was done too well that they decided to throw almost every piece of music into part 1 of this game. I fear there will be little of the OG music in the next game.

Again, it might just be high expectations of their previous work that you enjoyed. But if there is no room in your heart to embrace something new in the music for Elden Ring currently, there isn't much anyone do.

It doesn't. Just like the majority says this game is good when in fact it's ♥♥♥♥.

Again personal take, but I won't argue with you if you feel like that, majority of people prefer things over others, doesn't make it a fact
