i got a question: can anyone name an original piece of music in a game that is memorable thats not retro

Yes

Far Horizons from Skyrim

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPWVfCtnGyg

this one

Most of the skyrim soundtrack, tbh.

Pirates of the Caribbean's theme is godlike

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOdWiKUPVWo

you mean the gladiator theme? lol

Gladiator > Pirates of the Caribbean

Ye

but the pirates version of the song was better imo

nah

speaking of stunning similarities

better brass in Gladiator

michael giaccino accidentally just redid his star trek theme for doctor strange

at least, a bit of it

lol

;p pirates of the carribean theme

Added to the queue:

compare this

https://youtu.be/EO1FZEUbZJE?t=37

btw, watch, especially the second of those mashups, it's fucking godly

to this

https://youtu.be/O6Gkdme2bck?t=4

I think he just accidentally

god dammit now i want to go sail the 7 seas and be a pirate

but its' still great though

Giacchino is a beast

but those two leitmotifs are v similar

Giaccino is a fucking god.

He deserves all the credit and might go down as one of the great composers for movies of this era

not compared to john williams

He did rogue one man

he's getting there

I'll also give credit to Tyler Bates, too.

He did deadpool 1 and 2, and GOTG

Ramin Djiwadi is great as well.

i have all 3 of those osts so it must good

this is the greatest track Tyler Bates has ever made: https://youtu.be/2ghSzgxnkWU

This is fucking amazing
