So Soule isn't doing NWN2.
My suspicion has been that it'll be Inon Zur. It's been announced that he'll be doing the soundtrack for an 'award-winning' 'epic' RPG series, and it's been known that he's working with Atari for such a franchise. So, basically, he's working on either BG3 or NWN2. Most likely NWN2.
The composer for NWN2 will be very important to me, and the soundtrack better be freaking kickarse. I don't plan to use any custom music, so I'll be using the default music for my mod (in preproduction phase). I'll be very happy if it turns out to be Inon Zur, as I think he'd be the best choice. I love Jeremy Soule in a hot passionate way and all, but some of his work lately has been somewhat disappointing (Guild Wars soundtrack is pretty forgettable). I also want a live orchestra, so Atari better pay up for this, or there WILL be blood.
