For newfriends - Proof of a Hero is a central music piece for every Monster Hunter game and what the hell they did to it in Wilds

It's not that bad.
I don't dislike it, but I do prefer the MHFU or the World version more than Wild's one.

When it come to "art", it's kinda subjective.

no it's not.
Go to youtube and listen to the music. None it has clear musical theme that gets repeated. Music in Monster Hunter always worked together with action, here its just background slop with no real purpose. That's why it doesn't feel memorable, because its not designed to be.
How did the creators of the Monster Hunter screwed this so hard? They were the ones who made previous games, why didn't they made themes to compliment action and monsters?

I can't remember a music in Wilds that just pops out and becomes memorable.

World? Oh it had several.
Even the main town had a really good music. I remember when the Final Fantasy quest came out and Behemot was actually a bit too hard for me that point and it was only until much later when I had Master Rank gear when I went for it again.

During all that time I had the Final Fantasy theme in the main town and when I got back the original it hit the feels right away.

I don't get how they could have downgraded the music as much as they did in this sequel.

Astera theme will always have a place in my heart. I met my wife while I was playing through MHWorld. It's just such a good tune. You can let it repeat for a long time and it barely wears out its welcome.

Sorry, what? The opener of the new one gives me chills.

Older ones are fine, but this one sounds less saturday morning cartoon.

Also some bangers to be had in ice shard/wyveria ruins. One sounded very reminiscent of odogaron ala rotten vale that made my winky tingle. Arkveld has some nice ones as well.

Personally I think the World version is kind of... not great? I like the Wilds version more then World or Rise's versions. The OG proof of a hero can't ever be topped though and will always be THE best version.
