Hunt: Showdown 1896

Hunt: Showdown 1896

Okay I'm just gonna say it...
The music for this event sucks. That song in the lobby is torture. I'm sorry Crytek, I know you have some talented musicians and the woman singing has a fine enough voice, but the song suuuuuuucks. It's so lame. Please, for the love of all that is good and holy, give us some dark renditions of 1890s folk music, maybe some hot jazz as a jumpy counterpoint to the bleakness of the bayou, or perhaps some neo-classical. Any of these are bound to be better than some bland pop-rock song more fit for a 1960s James Bond film than a zombie, 1890s shooter.

It's a matter of taste. I really like it.

Nothing wrong with the song, it's interesting and atmospheric, sounds good and fits the theme of the game. I'm always glad to hear real, original music in games instead of that same of generic and synthetic orchestral nonsense that's put together by some nerd with his cheap keyboard over the lunch break. I believe you can mute the music in the settings if you don't like it.

Yes, that's what I should have done long ago. I forget there's no music in the game itself, so turning music off just effects the menu. Ah, blissful ambient sounds without the lame ballad rock.

"...real, original music..."
How original is any song that sounds like thousands of other songs? And what sort of false dichotomy is comparing their boring, derivative song to "generic and synthetic orchestral nonsense put together by some nerd with his cheap keyboard over the lunch break." Really? That's what you think the choices are?

We get it, you prefer Baby Shark and Old MCdonald had a farm type of music.

No kidding. I literally cite various influences they might consider for future music and this dingaling pulls a 'Baby Shark' from his anus.

Why do people make up stuff like this and then double-down? No, video games have showcased thousands of hours of excellent music. Hunt: Showdown has given us some good music, but their music just keeps getting worse.
