Darren Korb is probably one of the single most talented men in the gaming industry in general, and I don't think the company will release an outright bad game as long as he is involved.
this is gonna suck to say because i credit Transistor with making me love music, but Hades' OST was meh and 2 is rehashed exponential meh with terrible story-writing behind it. the first bad signs were him getting his Indie Singer Voice all up in Pyre's OST, and by Hades it's like they forgot what a good singer Ashley was. now there's some harpy in the second one going "i will keel u with my claws and drown u eeeee" as if those are interesting lyrics.
I don't think anything will ever top Bastion for me personally. First time I bought a video game OST and still listen to it regularly.
I can give some leeway to Hades 1 lacking somewhat because he went ahead and voiced two major characters he wasn't supposed to on top of the music and the amount of voiced dialogue per character in that game puts most AAA titles to shame. None of its bad, its just less "I'm buying the album for this song immediately" like the prior games.
I also personally like how dumb the Scylla song is simply because its meant to be that dumb, but I see your point on it.
