I am curious as to why they felt the need to remake the soundtrack at all. It's not like it was originally recorded on cassette tape and that's the only version they have left, or it was made with MIDI to begin with or something. It's full CD audio, probably with studio reference versions that are in much higher quality than that. The only two reasons I can think of are that 1) it's great for advertising or 2) they have implemented some dynamic music system into the game. I hope it is mainly the latter, and I hope it actually works well.

I will admit, it is looking better than before. Still not totally sold on it, but it is looking better.

I think the trailer is a little bit too spoilery, like with two of the red pyramid things coming out when previously in the game you'd always think there was just one until this moment. It's a really cool reveal and to just put it in the trailer is unfortunate. Or things like Eddie's breakdown. I know most people playing this remake will have already played the original, but I am sure a lot of people haven't played it yet too... so the trailer having things that are pretty wild moments is unfortunate.

I also don't really jive with the lead guitar in Laura's Theme. I can't think of the right musical term for it right now, but the notes played don't last as long as they should and it leaves some weird empty space. It sounds like an amateur playing and stopping their notes too early. The guitar tone also just sounds a bit more cheesy... honestly it sounds like a MIDI guitar.

throwback to that guy in my last failed d&d group who saw that i had characters named "apple" and "princess celeste" and subsequently would not stop making MLP jokes about them

HOLY SHIT THE END OF THAT KUPKA BOSS FIGHT! I knew that fight wouldn't be the end of him but I didn't expect it to end how it did at all. I was thoroughly giddy seeing his hands just get sliced clean off and then lying there while he slammed his stubs on the ground. Actually really cool.

been thinking about playing minecraft again and getting a bunch of mods. stuff like different terrain generation, more structures, shaders, just some stuff that can kind of enhance immersion a little bit.

i've also been thinking about playing skyrim with one of those extreme mod packs. "gate to sovngarde" looked particularly interesting to me.
