MEA Music

The music in ME:A is by no means bad but I am still disappointed.

I didn't want or expect them to bring back the old themes. Moving on is fine. But I do miss any themes that stand out like the Spectre Theme, Suicide Mission, A Future For The Krogan, Vigil or End Of An Era. I was expecting them to come out with new ones on that level.

Just compare the introduction of the Tempest to the introduction of the Normandy SR2 in ME2 and you'll immediately see (or rather hear) the difference the music makes. It's what makes the latter a scene I will never forget while the former just ... happened, I guess.

The MET had such great music that I noticed. Here it's just in the background. Definitely a step back (though going from absolutely stunning quality to good quality). Definitely hope they go back to distinct and and memorable great music in future ME games. It's important.

I don't think it's bad, but I haven't really heard anything that I thought was particularly great. It's very subdued - I almost wonder whether it's sometimes not playing when it's supposed to.

Really? Thats cool..when in the game? So far i got nothing special

Oh for sure, it's fine music.
Thing is, the music in the trilogy was ridiculously good (in all three of them), to the point where it's definitely my favorite video game score and possiblly even takes top spot across all media.
ME:A doesn't reach that level IMO and since it is another ME game, I was kinda hoping it would.

Intentionally not having music during exploration of hubs, the ship, and some planets, was really dumb. Music helps emphasize and breath life into scenes and settings.

There are themes on the trilogy that should be used in future games.
Should have been used on andromeda

I'm almost ignored the soundtrack completely.

There is actually a lack of music in several parts of the game. And the same music seems to be all around, this one from the start screen:


It keeps player over and over in almost every scene and loading it's so boring.
No that it's a bad music per se, but the game needs more planning on music. I mean, which music plays here and there, how this music should be or not. I feel like the music in andromeda is only a filler, not something that transform gameplay into an emotional thing.

I like the music. But other than the main menu theme and the galaxy map, not sure I can easily recall it to hum under my breath like I can so many themes in the OT.

I miss Sam Hulick. I also worry about the fact that they have a big-budget Hollywood composer now, because if this goes into a trilogy, we'll probably be changing composers every single game and won't have any musical consistency at all.
