[@LordofDiamondsMetal]

@@tusk1142 I'd fucking love a new Quake. It wouldn't really matter to me if it was Strogg or Lovecraft, but just think of what they could do with Quake 1's atmosphere and level design and aesthetic with a modern engine... It'd have to be more or less storyless, like the original. Vague objectives and backstory. That game's vibe is enhanced so much by the sense that you're alone and there's no other characters except the ones you have to kill.

I really want to say that the "Blood Swamps" level is simply the best overall in the DLC but YIKES the Difficulty Curve took a nasty 180 degree towards unfavorable in some of the arena battles. Otherwise the backstory about the level was interesting, loved the music as well!

[@LordofDiamondsMetal]

Yeah, the combat is at least twice as intense as the main Doom Eternal campaign. But you do start out with a fully upgraded arsenal. You're expected to use it, of course. Nothing like running backwards like hell and blasting two marauders with a ballista every few seconds.

[@KosmataBradva]

I was blown away from how creative the encounters are. A marauder in a tight space? I sleep. Tyrant in tight space. Real shit. Grab your first rune, eyyy go with Extra Life one. Here's an Archvile then. You like turrets? You like when a marauder blocks a turret shot and spawns a dog? Fight in this circle. Eyy rushing towards the buff totem? 1v1 buff marauder cage match.

@@KosmataBradva Ehhh, they're not really creative... I think you might be mistaking intensity for creativity. You literally never stop fighting.

@@LordofDiamondsMetal I thought that the fact that you never stop fighting in this dlc was incredible. There was always something new Id threw at you around every corner. I was hoping the base campaign would give me the feeling this dlc did back when the game first came out but it didn't really live up to it imo. Great game for sure, but this dlc ripped off the dial when the game was already cranked to 11 which I absolutely loved.

Andrew's work, however, is a perfect blend of every old-school FPS with fantastic metal riffs and insanely long and heavy notes! Man, that hing hits hard! Harder than Mick's work, imho.

This might not get as much recognition as Mick's music because everyone and their grandmother was suddenly acting as if they became metal fans since it got so much hype and people were probably just trying to fit in. It's very hard to explain in english since I don't mean it with any disrespect but I only listened to Mick's versions once and I liked them but that was it, they didn't become a part of any of my playlists.

[@wanchorman472]

Can't lie, I'd actually felt as though Mick leant just the *smallest* bit too heavily into the electronic side of Mickdustrial in the base game's soundtrack. Compared to the work he did on 2016, some of the tracks on Eternal's base OST sounded a little more like The Prodigy than DOOM (not that such a comparison is at all a bad thing, just not quite what I'd anticipated coming out of the same composer as 2016 and The New Order). As a result I appreciate Hulshult returning to the more classic metal style for the DLCs, even though he's been criticised for not sounding *exactly* like Mick did on the original OST (although I'd argue a lot of the key structural components of Mick's work can also be found here)

[@novai6554]

BFG 10K, Metal hell, super gore nest, only thing they fear is you, and meathook are basically the big metal bangers from the base game. Glad Andrew and david's soundtrack ended up like the best parts of those songs

[@_terrorbilly]

@@novai6554 I agree with a couple of those songs, but The Only Thing They Fear Is You has its main segment (like the chorus in a song with lyrics) electronic rather than the guitar. It's my favorite song in the vanilla ost, but it leans too heavily on the techno.

[@DantesInferno96]

Uh if you go back you'll see that most of the soundtracks in 2016 were more electronic, compared to Eternal where only major boss fights are electronic. Mick made great use of guitar in eternal, even better than he did in 2016. 2016 had barely one or two tracks that even sounded metal like bfg division. Compared to that, Eternal has wayyyy more metal soundtracks.

Idk music really so its hard to explain, but this is very Andrew though, it really screams his style, and it works for Doom. But I definitely will need to get used to it because Andrew's overall style is very unique and I can't help but think of Dusk and the other games he's worked on thus far... but this is fire, like amazing stuff and it definitely still works for iD's current vision of Doom!

Andrew is the single person that can equal Mic in my opinion. Although I say Mic is the better musician overall and really made the Doom soundtracks considered “iconic”, Andrew brought his own spin on it while also not diverting too far away from Mic’s work. Mic worked more on artificial synths using sounds such as lawn mowers while Andrew uses more instrumental synths such as drums, bass, and guitar. There are multiple breakdowns in this song consisting of blast beats, alternating riffs, and great bass. I would love to see his next work. So far loving all the tracks.

Rip & Tear (nu-metal chugging that wouldn't have been out of place at all on a Slipknot album). Bfg Division (one of the laziest main riffs I've ever heard).

@@fromash5289 I'd venture to say that's because both Mick Gordon and Andrew Hulshult (who picked up the Doom style where Mick left off) might not know heavy metal music intimately, and therefore don't know about all the tools they have at their disposal to create a truly diverse metal-driven score. I know that Mick Gordon's main experience with heavy music before he did Doom was Meshuggah (he's friends with their guitarist), and Meshuggah is 1) not really a metal band, and 2) very mechanical and not very imaginative or diverse in everything that's not the drumming. I'd really like to see how actual extreme metal would work in a Doom soundtrack, or just any game in general. Like, bring in a death metal band like Suffocation and just let the madness begin.

[@fromash5289]

@@LordofDiamondsMetal I can agree to this. Hell lets get some norwegian black metal or get really out there and just have borknagar do a few tracks. Also I realize I worded my original post wrong. I meant gordon's music is heavily stylized, not that his style is heavy. You can play most of his tracks and I can tell you right away its him even if I never heard the song. He has a very distinct signature imo. These new doom tracks just don't resonate that same way for me. They also don't provide the same dynamic build up during gameplay that gordon's did, but maybe that's because he had much more time to work on those, who knows. I've known of hulshult for awhile now and again while I enjoy his work (quake was quite good and fitting), I can rarely pick up on his signature because imo he doesn't have much of a hook. Again all opinions but happy to have a civil conversation about it.

My boy Andrew went from doing a metal version of the original E1M1, to making OST for Id... and it fucking slays

[@subvison1407]

No problem with mick gordon's work but i think i prefer this dlc soundtrack. But thats why i still really love bfg10k and metal hell, theyre the most metal soundtracks in the game.

[@LordofDiamondsMetal]

Andrew and David seem to have gone with a more guitar-based approach. At least in the music I've heard.

[@CinematicHypeTV]

But I don't think that's really Micks fault

[@shredgordon3240]

Micks stuff has more of an electronic bent to it.

Buff Totem AND Sprited Marauder. Now that is something I really want to see in Part 2.

No no you'll jinx it

First of all, stop giving Id ideas. Second of all, THANK GOD but Buff Totems and Spirits don't stack. Buff Totem cancels out a Spirit.

Best buy and other online retailers on october 29th: "Why is this music playing?"

[@troIIdier]

Lots of love for Mick and his work, but Andrew getting to do actual Doom music is the sickest shit and you can't convince me otherwise.

[@gingerjedivideo9218]

I actually got dizzy playing this song in my head through breathing.

[@5udimax]

Honestly, I liked Andrew's score a bit more than Mick's. It just has that raw metal energy.

[@wodanswil]

The new sounds way more metal. Way more doom!

[@LordofDiamondsMetal]

I've noticed that a lot of people are resuming taking a shit on Mick Gordon because Hulshult and Levy have filled his shoes admirably (as well as the soundtrack release scandal). Let's not forget that, although the DLC soundtrack is better than one could have ever hoped for, Gordon created this industrial djent sound and more or less burned it into the game. We have him to thank for associating this sound with Doom, and Hulshult and Levy to thank for picking it up where he left off.

@@LordofDiamondsMetal I stop looking at other opinion cause of that, comparing is a fine thing but it always devoted to like "Yo this shit is so good fuck that old one" and vise versa. Not just a music but everything.

The grooviest of all the Doom OSTs for sure. Great stuff. I got turned on to Andrew's stuff by his IDKFA album. Bloody awesome.

I really like this. I also really like the Eternal soundtrack. I really like both of them. That’s all.

You know I kind of want people to say its not as memorable as Mick Gordon just so Andrew can blow everyone away in part 2
