How come so many indy games are known for their great soundtracks above anything else? RoR was a
decent game with limited replayability and a lack of support from day one, but the OST blew me
away. I cant name dozens of other games that are identical in this manner, but can think of very
few "triple-A" games that do the same.

Isn't Battleblock Theater almost the exact opposite, except it also has decent musics?

Because most indie games are trying to make soundtracks that are good in their own right, while
most AAA games go for the big blockbuster orchestra style where you don't even hear the songs in
the background.

>limited replayability
i don't know man, i poured over 100 hours into RoR and still have the desire to start it up every
now and then
although i guess it varies from person to person

I thought the soundtrack was alright, but it wasn't anything amazing.
A lot of things about the game really pissed me off though. Because of the super zoomed out
perspective it was hard to tell what the enemies were even supposed to be. The early large-mob
with the two-claw crab thing looks like some kind of wooly mammoth unless you look close and
observe the jaws/claws snapping as they attack you. Then they use the "FINAL LEVEL: GAME TITLE",
but it has no dramatic impact because it's ultimately a meaningless title outside of "it's
raining in this level OOOO". Then each of the characters have this shitty epilogue about their
"guilt" or some nonsense except you know nothing about the character so why the fuck do I care?
I could go on.
