Guild Wars 2

I have a serious complaint with the soundtrack for Heart of Thorns. It’s something that’s been nagging at the back of my mind since the expansion released. It started as a numb tingle, grew to a strong murmur and has evolved into a cacophony that unimaginable proportions that just cannot be ignored!

The soundtrack for Heart of Thorns… is just too demn good!

I decided, on a whim, that when the expansion launched I would turn the music on – as I had previously disabled it to listen to my own music part-way through the first month of the original Guild Wars 2 – since I was expecting a few new BGM tracks. Whilst I was correct, I noticed something that I had not expected. I have found myself liking these BGM tracks so much more than the base game’s. So much so that I can’t bring myself to turn the music back off to listen to my own playlist again.

The fact that the music alternates between multiple tracks per zone keeps them from getting tiresome and repetitive, as is the case with most MMOs. I can’t remember if this was something that was in the base game at launch or not…

tl;dr
The music in HoT is amazing! When can we purchase the soundtrack? I waaaaant it!
