The track has haunted me for years, it's like an evil spirit.

Reign of chaos undead tracks were good too.

I liked the WoW OST. Especially the undead starting areas. :hmmm:

Dat D2 wilderness.

As of OP it's not only music that they fucked up.
10 years ago it was one of my top 5 dev studios now even Square Enix give me more expectations than Blizzard shit games

WoW occasionally has good music still. Although Wrath was the last time the vast majority of it was great.

A person who was trying to snipe the true angle of efficiency would have pasted the wrath of the lich king wow soundtrack or something, but you all were in diapers when diablo 2 came out don't lie about it

Should change thread title to Blizzard Games weren't always forgettable. I've been saying they should just make movies instead of games since the day I got my Warcraft 3 collector's edition box...

Uelmen did neither Warcraft 2 nor Starcraft (he only did sound design there).

Even the outtakes for D2 are pretty fucking incredible:



The music for Torchlight 2 doesn't really live up to that, but it's still pretty good. I really wish Uelmen would start recording on a regular basis, because he's clearly capable of much more than just scoring, which he does brilliantly anyway.

Blizzard really has gone to shit in pretty much every regard. Sad to see.

Yeah, I've always felt W3 is where it all started going wrong.

Wait, what the fuck? I read that at as forgettable before I came back to this thread. Left out a brofist because of it. Matt Uelmen fucking rocks indeed.
