But that's how life works. Like the Weezer green album, it wasn't really bad compared to the music world as a whole, but next to their previous 2 albums, it was disappointing, so people ended up disappointed. I don't think that is a bad thing per se. Disappointed doesn't necessarily mean you dislike something, just that it didn't meet expectations, and if those expectations are built from something concrete in the past, it's sort of natural to be a bit disappointed when things don't match up.
With that said, it's next to impossible to match the soundtracks of DKC 1/2, so I'm not even expecting that. They're seriously probably top 10 video game soundtracks ever. As long as the soundtrack has some cool remixes and some cool new tunes, I'll survive. Actually, even if it doesn't, I'll survive, if the game rocks. |

@carlosroxI hate to do this Carlos, but you and Zero have forced my hand: Yes Nintendo makes mistakes, but they do way, way, way, way, way more right than they do wrong. Way more. I wish I could find the actual article, but I can't even remember where I read it, but Miyamoto and others were adamant about the music in this game needing to play an important role. Miyamoto was heavily involved in the development of the original DKC, and I'm pretty sure the same is true of DKC Returns. I can almost guarantee you that I spent more time playing the original DKC than anyone who posts here. I could 100% that game in under two hours. Not having water levels is somewhat of a disappointment, but none of us knows why they chose not to do them. Maybe they decided they wanted to do something completely different that we haven't seen in a DKC game yet. We don't know. You and Zero are upholding the long, storied tradition of Nintendo fans overreacting to a game before it's even out, going back to the early GameCube games like Wind Waker, Metroid Prime, and Double Dash and before. I say we wait until the game is actually out before we rake Nintendo over the coals for a subpar soundtrack. |
