Does the witcher 3 music really annoy anyone else?

After an hour or so that standard game music really drives me up the wall, I don't mean cut scene or cinematic moments just that music which plays throughout the game on a loop!! I'm not that far in I guess just inside the first cave, but does that music ever change at all fellow gaffers???

 

[Salsa]

the music is all great

but I do wish there was like, more than 1 combat theme, randomized

considering how much im hearing it 50 hours in

 

[blacklotus]

Nop.

Not at all.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

No.

 

[Bl@de]

It changes in every region. The music of W3 is great.

 

[Twin Tails]

The music in the snow area gets annoying, the lady just singing over and over again.
But I love the OST for other shit.

 

[Hideous Snake]

Nope, I find it beautiful.

 

[imBask]

it's the first game in forever that I actually kept the game music on!

 

[Majmun]

Sure, it changes. I think it's dynamic as well. It changes, depends on daytime and environment.

 

[BouncyFrag]

Not here. Then soundrrack is solid.

 

[Veritigo_X]

No, the music is great.

 

[JudgmentJay]

Nope, I love it.

 

[Reebot]

No, it's amazing. There a huge variety in ambient tracks too, I really don't get your complaint.

 

[Wolvesinthebathroom]

The music is one of the best parts of the game in my opinion.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

No the Witcher suprisingly has very good music and I really dont even like much western rpg music. Its pleasant.

 

[Durante]

I found the music great so far. Loved when the vocals first cut in during a battle.

 

[Solid Samus]

it's my favorite ost of this generation so far besides dkc

 

[plasmawave]

The thing that annoys me is the button prompts not showing up so I can't loot.

 

[Phazon]

I actually really like it. Even the singing during combat. It's a really neat OST imo ^^

And the Priscilla song, oh my <3

 

[fierrotlepou]

What? The music is phenomenal. Are you on angel dust?

 

[devious.one]

No, in fact I was just telling someone how much I adored the music.

All day at work the battle theme runs through my mind.

Spoiler

help.. it wont stop

 

[-tetsuo-]

I like it. Shakira going ham. I wish I could find the music that plays during the Family Matters questline dialogue scenes.

 

[Revolutionary]

I only thing I don't like about the music is the length of the songs and pauses between them. The songs (the ones when you're exploring in particular) are short and the pauses before they loop are long.

 

[OverturePT]

Either the soundtrack is bloody amazing or I've been dreaming this entire time.

 

[enkaisu]

All the music in the game has been fantastic so far. Especially some of the combat music.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

Nope, I really like it.

 

[bbd23]

Nope.

I listen to it even when not in game!

 

[bananafactory]

I'm annoyed by the loop as well. It's just CONSTANTLY playing and over and it's especially noticeable during length conversations.

The music is fantastic but more variety for the standard gameplay stuff would be appreciated

 

[Plasma]

I really like the soundtrack but they need to fix it during dialogue, sometimes the combat music carries over and it just seems really out of place.

 

[Justice_Bolt]

Nope. The music is fantastic.

 

[Aeana]

Wow, no. The soundtrack is incredible to me.

 

[ffejeromdiks]

I love the music actually, what I don't like is how it's not really all too dynamic, say if your fighting a bunch of dudes, it fucking sucks when the music drowns out when you've almost killed everyone because to the game you've left combat, even though theres a dude shooting arrows at you 20 feet away. So the music concludes, but then starts back up again as soon as you get close enough to him, and then ends immediately afterwards.

I love the actual tracks though, just wish it flowed with gameplay more.

 

[lordfuzzybutt]

I find the soundtrack very decent.

 

[Yoda]

Wow, no. The soundtrack is incredible to me.

^ Easily one of my new favorites behind Deus Ex.

 

[Elandyll]

? I think the music's great. Imo it will probably be one of the great soundtracks of 2015 (alongside BB).

 

[RoKKeR]

I think it's great. Really sets the mood.

 

[Slowdive]

No, it's great.

 

[Mortemis]

God no.

Music is definitely one of the strong points of the game.

 

[m_shortpants]

I love the combat track

LA LA LA YA LALA LALALA LALALALALA

 

[Corpekata]

I can see the yodelling combat music getting on some people's nerves but I dig it.

 

[void666]

the music is all great

but I do wish there was like, more than 1 combat theme, randomized

considering how much im hearing it 50 hours in

There is more than one blattle theme.

I noticed at least 3 from the OST that play regularly.

Silver for monsters
Steel for humans
The song of the sword dancer

 

[Hank Scorpio]

Only ever really irked me in the village where you look for Henryk in Velen.

I have seen other people mention how they wish you could turn off the ambient music outside of certain scenarios.

 

[red731]

I like it. Shakira going ham. I wish I could find the music that plays during the Family Matters questline dialogue scenes.

I love these parts! Bwahaha

The music absolutely fits the atmosphere it's going for and really puts me into the vibe for adventure and exploration!

 

[neonxaos]

I think it's some of the best music to grace any game, so... No

 

[Rathorial]

Maybe in the first 2 games, because I felt the music was a bit generic, but Witcher 3 REALLY improved in that aspect. Love the majority of the tracks, even when they don't always come on or go off when they should.

 

[BumRush]

I actually woke up this morning and though "I love the Witcher 3's soundtrack", then I went downstairs to play for a few minutes. Then the baby woke up so I never played - in retrospect I should have left my PS4 in rest mode instead of powering off - but I still really like the music.

 

[Dog Problems]

I'm really enjoying most of the music. But there is some battle music I don't care for, particularly the singing parts.

 

[Higgins113]

Have you been taking fisstech?

 

[ZeroMaverick]

No. It's pretty amazing. I'm glad they included it with the game.

 

[dacalo]

Not at all man, I love the music. I love the Crones ominous music (Ladies of the Woods) as well as one of the bar/gwent (music played at both) flute tunes.
