Furious! They've dealt the killing blow! Music is gone and with it wow's atmosphere

[Sarik]

I'm in a blistering rage right now... how can they do this? In the past I regarded wow's music to be among the most atmospheric, amazing music I have ever heared, music that fills the soul and captures the events you've had in the game with the actual sound...and now? It's a bunch of bland sounds with no personality.

For example. Haunted 01.

Amazing, has personality, is earie, creepy and ominous. BUT NO! Let's throw that out the window for this, a bland mess of the same sounds over and over:

Durator...WHAT THE HELL IS THAT? In the original soundtrack you can FEEL the heat of the desert, and now? IT SOUNDS LIKE BLOODELF MUSIC!!!!!!!!

Elves personality and atmosphere? Gone. Darnassus is hardly changed, but for the worse, why bother?

...DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON SACRED!

[Kelger]

I'm half asleep and already I desire your head to explodey.

[Firen]

Personally - I'm loving most of the new music! Was about time they freshened those tracks up.

[Willeonge]

..that doesnt sound blood elven at all to me.

[Kellorkleft]

Get started on Sacred.

[hiimjoe]

furios? is that like cheerios?

[Tikaru]

Everything about the old world is changing, sorry.

Just do what I do: if you really like a piece from the old world go to Amazon and buy it for about a buck.

Where do you hear the "blood Elf music" on the new Durotar's Soundtrack? Oo

[Lunkwow]

Only becuse there is some new scores does not mean the have replaced all the old ones.

[Porimlys]

Guess I was wrong to expect people to stick with the old ways and care about the atmosphere of the game.

[Koben]

... maybe I'm listening to the wrong music, or you linked the wrong things, because I love that music.

the old ways

Old ways is bad.

You were indeed wrong to assume that everyone shares your opinion.

[Porimlys]

Guess I was wrong to expect people to stick with the old ways and care about the atmosphere of the game.

How is more polished and better put together music detrimental to the atmosphere of the game?

A lot of the old themes are still there anyway:

Bro like 90% of WoW players turn that shitty music off

[Deleted]

I loved the new music, and it seems the majority of people who posted here did too..

If you really really -really- don't like it, you can get addons which play music in wow, just set it to play a file of the old music.

Opinion is opinion is opinion.
