Doom Eternal? The game with a soundtrack that was made up of butchered parts of Gordon’s work, welded together by a novice, at the command of an egotistical dickhead who slandered Gordon after the fact?

Eternals original OST was very poor compared to Doom 2016. Big reason I never bothered with the game.

Just for the record, the in game OST was properly done by MG and was great. It was the Official OST album that was taking bits from that OST to make full songs that were very sub-par. The music MG was making is very dynamic in game, and each level had multiple musical phrases that start and stop dynamically during gameplay (this isn't unique to doom of course, lots of games do this.) in game the music is some of his best work imo, and really brings the gameplay to another level.

Some people have released better mixes of the songs taken and edited from those music clips in the game files to make better mixes than the Official OST album.
