DOOM ETERNAL has not paid more than half of music, composer Mick Gordon released a long blog as a last resort

MICK GORDON, Michael John Gordon, criticized the Software studio director Marty Stratton on November 9 on a Twitter account of 86,000 followers. In response to troubles over the DOOM ETERNAL official soundtrack (OST), Mr. Stratton has presented a six-digit amount to avoid this matter, but it is more important to talk about the truth. I posted a link.

Gordon is known as a sound designer of video games, especially the reboot version Doom (2016) and Doom Eternal and has a lot of awards, including D.I.C.E. Awards and Game Audio Network GUILD. I am a composer. Following the background of this, the starting point was in April 2020, the OST distributed DL to the buyer of DOOM ETERNAL COLLECTOR'S EDITION, and an expert with a sense of incongruity performed sound analysis and said, What is MICK GORDON's job? I don't think, he said on SNS.

On the other hand, Gordon replied directly that the mix is not performed, only 12 of the 59 songs included in the OST edited, and the remaining songs are the lead audio designer of the ID. It turns out that the mixed was made. While speculation and criticism of the company, Stratton posted a long sentence of more than 2,500 words, DOOM ETERNAL OST OPEN LETTER.

In summary of the technical aspects, ID and Stratton are time and creative time to provide better, or Gordon, which is a neglected and lazy deal with the DOOM work. The speculation and criticism of the fans that freedom was not given is not all true. In order to submit the highest quality that has been arranged in the game format in the game, I am disappointed that even when Gordon requested an additional period of several weeks, it was unable to distribute the game at the same time. They answered that they have also accepted.

In addition, some delivered data contained only one heavy combat track, and it was told that it would take more time to complete, and if more heavy songs were needed, the lead of IDs would be required. It was suggested that it would be a truck by an audio designer, and the company accepted it, but after the distribution (mentioned earlier), Gordon said Gordon, I have not mixed myself. He would not make such a mix, he said, as a result, fans who slandered and attacked the lead audio designer of IDs began to appear, and Gordon did not say anything about the situation. Increase.

Stratton is more disappointed than anyone who has reached this situation despite the fact that Gordon's requests and acts that hinder creative, and that he has extended multiple times in response to the request. He revealed that DLC, which was under development, did not adopt the songs of Mick Gordon, who has a wonderful and rare talent, but announced the ID and Mick Gordon's break.

According to this explanation, which was posted about two and a half years ago, Gordon lied to the situation surrounding the DOOM ETERNAL soundtrack, suggested false information, and completely blamed that failure. I did was a Twitter post on November 9, which I mentioned at the beginning, and it is a personal blog.

Marty's posting to Reddit has a serious influence on both my profession and personal reputation. By publishing this statement, I exercise the right to defend myself. After all other attempts to solve the problem failed, we will announce it extremely reluctantly. As you can understand even if you read it, it also includes explanations of prerequisite knowledge such as contract form and guarantee payment, and is a long sentence.

According to Gordon, when I participated in the Doom Eternal project, the release was still tight but not impossible schedule two years from now, but I also ID for music closely related to the game content. Does not provide materials in a timely manner, the capture of the game video is often desperate, and the details of the boss and the story are one year ahead. ID Software was too busy to answer basic questions within a week.

The ID side was not paid for 11 months from January 2019, with the ID side for months for the approval of the music submitted for financial problems. Before that, when the MICK GORDON original OST, a bonus of the collector's edition in the 2019 E3, Gordon did not offer or contract for production, and he knew through the media, and the reservation order began. It seems that he was. Gordon's financial situation was miserable. This project was the only thing I did. This project was a disastrous situation, which was compatible with either a promise or a long excuse, and the tension with ID Software increased. It is a source of income, and I couldn't afford to compete with Animal's legal institution over money.

In addition, ID Software refused to pay, even though the main game, marketing, and soundtracks shared as a process of music production that did not intend to disclose, but more than doubled music. I haven't paid more than half of the music used in DOOM ETERNAL.

In addition to this blog, Gordon directly attacks Gordon with a post that scatters the content of the one-hour Skype call that was received by the negative reaction of the fans after the OST release, and the subsequent posts of lies and fake information inconsistent with Reddit. As a truth, the media repeatedly reported that the lies were repeatedly reported that they were conducting Skype calls to create scapegoats and collecting information.

The new settlement proposes a six-digit stop fee in return for all the responsibilities of the OST failure, but the content is STRATTON's Reddit posting indefinitely and accused. I will not withdraw I can't speak about Doom Eternal, OST, and Reddit, and if I ask something, I will only answer no comments. It was unreasonable.

However, the content of REDDIT was only broken, and a gamer who was dissatisfied with the attitude of a professional composer began to harass Gordon, and tried to delete REDDIT posting. I was furious, he said that he decided to release this blog as the last defense means.
