Why is videogame music so uninspired compared to every other medium?

Jace Williams

10 years later And this is still the best videogame music had to offer.

Instead of trying to imitate Hans Zimmer/John Williams/Enya, instead of being where D-list metal hid out, why wasn't videogame music the place to try out something genuinely new?

Yeah I want to know as well. I get Nier did some interesting stuff, but I'd like to see more examples or something.

They're all well made, with catchy tunes, and fake languages that are catchy. They make for good background music.

I remember when I played Nier, the songs would be stuck in my head constantly until about a week after I completed the game.
