No, I did not. I said VGM should try to capture the atmosphere of the game it's accompanied with. It's a matter of opinion when that happens and when it doesn't, but I think Forest Temple does just that. That is all I said, you just assume things.

[quoted text]

How is that the same at all?

[quoted text]

I said I personally don't like busy chiptune music. I never said I don't like other busy music. I just think chiptune sounds very cluttered when it's busy. I never said other people couldn't think otherwise. Stop putting words in my mouth.

[quoted text]

Where did I state that I don't enjoy music in all its forms? There's just some styles and approaches I personally don't like. You can never enjoy every single type of music, or enjoy every single type of music as much as other types. If you do, you are basically unbiased about an art form, which is much more horrible to me than being a musical 'conservative' even.

[quoted text]

I never said styles, I said approach. There's a difference, learn it. There can be busy video game music that accompanies the spirit of the game great. Again, stop putting words in my mouth.



I am not a musical bigot at all. I enjoy plenty of genres, styles and approaches. I listen to all kinds of rock, folk, jazz, hip hop, ambient, electronic, etc from all kinds of decades. I don't crap on other people for not enjoying something I do not. I'm also a musician myself who likes to play lots of different genres with other people. This does not matter at all when it comes to talking about VGM. Which is, again, music accompanied with another form of entertainment, so it shouldn't be viewed as music on its own to me because it will always remind you of the game itself in the first place.

I'm saying I don't enjoy one specific approach when it's accompanied with another entertainment form. That's all I said, so stop analyzing me and stop assuming other things.


Bolding for irony.

And seriously? You're saying videogame music doesn't stand on its own? Let me guess, you think film music doesn't, either? That'd be consistent, at least.
