    It's so weird that I, as one of Tim Follin's biggest fans, and also a onetime Amiga owner and enthusiast, only learned about this amazing soundtrack yesterday. It's just crazy. Really says a lot about how one of the most talented video game composers in the history of the genre could find himself underappreciated and forced to leave the industry.

    • @6581punk
      @6581punk 2 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      Not so much underappreciated but unpaid I imagine. Games studios are terrible at paying contractors.

    • @Asterra2
      @Asterra2 2 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      @@6581punk I meant underappreciated when he was doing work. If studios had today's understanding of this composer in the 90s, he'd have had jobs coming to him, as opposed to being lucky to be attached to ultra-obscure 16-bit titles that mostly never even finished development.

      @@Asterra2 I don't think composers were that indemand in general. Gaming was still very fresh when tim was around. Plus he didn't always make tracks that fit the games until the 16bit era.

      At least in the case of this one, the amiga games market was dying on its arse. The shelf space for big amiga boxes was getting smaller and smaller. Even though I still had an amiga at this point, I never saw this until the days of emulation.

    A certain reviewer said that the BGM was a generic rock track. He obviously knows nothing about music. Perhaps his opinions were coloured by the fact G III is considered to be a terrible game.

    2:34 Uptempoed sample (or perhaps musically recreated) segment taken from the song “The Remembering/High the Memory” by Yes (if find yourself listening to the original song to hear it for yourself, the sampled piece is heard at around 8 minutes & 10 seconds into the song). Ya know-because OF COURSE Tim Follin is that one spacey, deep thinking, geeky, introspective weirdo 🤓 friend in the group who just drones on & on about how “Tales From Topographic Oceans” is indisputably, unequivocally, & absolutely the greatest progrock album ever made, & will not accept anyone claiming otherwise.
