I don’t think I can articulate how annoyed I am that people are being so dismissive toward music composers. Music can make games.
I very clearly stated that Terranigma's soundtrack, unlike the game itself, did not stand out to me that much. And yes, when I hear "staff" of a certain game being involved I would expect something like the designers or programmers who were responsible for some of the things that actually made those games great. A soundtrack alone can't make a shit game good, no matter how good it is. This isn't dismissive towards the composers, it's just a fact.
As a popular example, IMHO FFVII wouldn't have been half the game it became without its soundtrack.
