Oh and Eve's music is retarded-good. So unique and refreshing and just pure goodness.
I think if Nino had the right people he could create some better music, but I got the feel he created alot of that stuff completely by himself with a Korg. Which I give you props for Nino, that's still pretty great. |
From what I could tell from the game credits in the back of the manual, Nino was acting as the composer AND sound designer, alone.. That is not the proper way to populate an mmo with sound content, and in that context I think Nino did the best he could. A proper sound department for an mmo should have a dedicated composer, and a minimum of one dedicated sound designer. But as I stated in another thread, the audio department is generally the 'red headed stepchild' of the games industry...
I do feel bad for all the employees that lost their jobs. But I hope Nino kept his job or was hired by SoE, because that is one less sound designer I have to compete against in this over-saturated job market (yes, I am bitter and resentful towards the politics and arbitrary class system in this industry.)
