Do you listen to the Beatles or are you just the kind of person that has heard their “hits” The Beatles broke ground for a myriad of genres, changed the way music was recorded, and changed the way the industry was ran.

That being said, I agree with Potent. Jack Wall is nothing special. At least if you consider Jeremy Soule to not be special.

The Beatles hardly changed ANYTHING about recording, that was the engineers behind them.
Yes, the Beatles had a few good songs. But there are better musicians that are a LOT less well known.

Oh and @ Classical music—yes, I listen to it. If more people did, they might realise how mediocre Jeremy Soule really is.

Oh, I guess that shows how little I care about the Beatles and their generic, uninspiring music.
The Beatles are just like Jeremy: They put money before art.
Why else would you reuse the same theme three times so flagrantly?
Have you even tried playing TES theme on piano?
“As-cen-ding steps, As-cen-ding steps, A lit-tle break, and des-cen-ding steps….”
Yeah, really creative. I too find it nice, and evocative.
But then it’s just like: “Ok that was good, new music plz.”
You can diss the spectre induction song all you like, it doesn’t change the fact that something completely different is played in the next scene, and the next, and the next….

And can ArenaNet make this change sooner rather than later?
Some of us enjoy PvP much more than PvE and are itching at the chance to do 1v1’s, 2v2’s, 3v3’s, etc.
8v8 shouldn’t really be the default, 5v5 feels much more tight.

The variation in maps is good, but can we also get more game modes please?
Compared to the enormous level of effort that went into the open PvE world (Graphics and scripting are AMAZING) I think PvP deserves some attention.

I large amount of the player base, i’m sure, would prefer ArenaNet working on PvP for the first few patches, as it seems to have gotten less attention than PvE so far.

TL;DR: ArenaNet can you plz add more PvP content soon? Thx

The likes of Jack Wall are way better (Mass Effect composer)
Jeremy’s music is too repetitive, and he simply rode along too much on the success
of the Morrowind theme.
Jeremy Soule isn’t “bad” per se, just like the Beetles weren’t the worst band of the 1900’s…
But he is HIGHLY overrated and there are better composers.

Here’s an iconic piece by Jack Wall and the rest of the Mass Effect music team:
