A soundtrack that aims to be as accurate as possible to the medieval / fantasy tone implied by the theme, and it succeeded really well! I enjoyed this one a lot, I'm a sucker for medieval stuff, and this delivers.
The dry mixing of all the instruments throughout all the songs made them sound very authentic, I really liked it. I tend to prefer dry instruments anyway, too much reverb for the sake of "realism" can quickly make something sound muddy, and the composer(s) realised that quite well.
Speaking off, this soundtrack, despite having multiple composers, felt extremely cohesive through and through. Lots of submissions with multiple team members end up having tracks that are widely different from one another, and while this was still lightly felt here, the whole experience felt cohesive and well planned. A lot of thought must've been put into making this with multiple people.
Here are some standout things I wanted to mention:
The flute in a "A Song of Adventure" was absolutely amazing, what vst did you use for it? The whole track was honestly pretty great, loved it.
The dungeon synth approach in Ancient Ruins made it pretty unique amongst other tracks. The violin and oboe playing cemented it as my favourite track throughout the whole thing. I would REALLY love to hear what vst you used for those.
A Legendary Song is my second fav, you just absolutely killed it with the flute and 5/4 rhythm.
A Rowdy Evening was a great way to cap off the soundtrack on a high note, with a disgustingly good chord at around 1:09 that brought it very high up for me.
Not too many critiques, honestly, maybe that sometimes flutes and strings sounded a tiny bit unrealistic? But it wasn't that big of a deal.
Great stuff, through and through.
