ratboi Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 For me it was some oelvn. Yes I know quite a lot of these low budget ones have shitty music in them. I mean it got so bad I had to play slipknot over it 😂 (not that that's a bad thing) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john 'mr. customer' smith Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 I don't play VNs with bad music. Music is too important for that Barktooth, Ayana and Fred the Barber 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akaritan Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Higanbana and 07th Expansion's music is mindbogglingly gorgeous 99% of the time, but occasionally I hear things like this that make my ears bleed. Spoiler Vorathiel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred the Barber Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Princess Evangile's music is almost entirely utter crap. I dropped the VN after one route for many reasons, but the horrible music was probably the biggest factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deep Blue Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 most of the themes from brass restoration and some themes on Amane Switch were really bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BookwormOtaku Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 The ero scene music from Kansen Ball Buster. Why the creators thought some guy screaming gibberish into the microphone mixed in with music that by itself would be forgettable would go good with an ero scene baffles me to this day.

FamishedPants Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 I do not think that I have played a game that had music that actually caused me irritation. Closest thing to that would be Himouto's OST, but that's an anime. Grisaia and probably some of the Eroge I have played had meh soundtracks, however. (Though Grisaia did have a few good ones, too).

Okarin Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Most VNs I've played have superb music. Sample here: The ones that have inferior music don't have bad music in fact, it just doesn't have impact. Also there's a trick for building a great soundtrack: start putting effort on a main theme and then make spinoffs of it, with different instruments, different keys, different tempos etc. Something good's bound to happen. In Japan you throw a stone and there's an accomplished musician to hit. Narcosis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arcadeotic Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Most generic highschool/SoL-tracks with horrendously forgettable and overall just average blips, bloops and some guitar for good measure. 90% of these tracks are basically the same and are in almost every VN in existence.

oxczen Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 I don't recall any bad music in my VN (or maybe I'm just used to shitty music), however I can tell you the best ones I've played... EVERYTHING FROM UMINEKO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barktooth Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 13 hours ago, Eclipsed said: I actually liked this track a lot the first time I heard it, it's one of the better comedy scene tracks IMO. But I'm pretty sick of it by now just because it always plays when that pink blob of annoyingness appears. Chinami is why we can't have nice things. As for the worst one I've ever heard, it would have to be the H-scene music from Sharin no Kuni. God I'm sick of it. Okarin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy tends to be good. It's actually listenable, compared to 95% of VN openings songs. Oh, and it's better with voice, which is extremally rare for japanesse music.

Okarin Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 But... "Girls at 4:30 PM" is a good theme. Plus, I wish I could meet girls at 4:30 PM... or any hour, really! john 'mr. customer' smith 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasDice Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Basically every single OP ever, because they tend to be 2000% louder than the audio settings and burst your eardrums in a matter of seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
