Despite the music still being good in Destiny 2, it hasn’t a scratch on Marty’s production and musical story telling in Destiny 1.
His leaving had a lot to do with the downfall of Destiny I think because it sucked the emotion from the game.
I really do think it’s part of why D2 feels so soulless and detached. The music doesn’t flow with the gameplay, or at least nowhere near as well.
Kinda sucks the Destiny 1 music isn’t in the Destiny 2 playlist tbh. Although they’re probably not allowed after Marty won his lawsuit.
Good watch explaining it all here!

Anyone else think so?
EDIT: This was the greatest loss of what we actually experienced in D1 and lost for D2.
Destiny’s greatest loss over all was obviously the pre D1 release rewrite from Joe Staten’s original story. And his resulting departure.
Bungie losing more of the OG halo team is never going to be a good thing.

No. Go listen to groups like Audiomachine or other theme based groups out there and you'll realize that Marty (I'm an original Marathon guy btw) basically had a lot of success as a composer, but there's just as many good ones out there. Bungie did a smart thing too getting rid of him. The guy literally insulted a choice by funders for Bungie which threatened a massive loss for development purposes. No one individual can say a thing when their music doesn't get chosen for an art piece and runs the risk of losing that much funding.
