So this is sorta a followup to my previous post

It started when Youtube pushed me an hour long concert performance of Skyrim OST. I also did a brief search on youtube and found a few other Game OST related concert performances which are...pretty much similar to this.

Now, I do like some of the skyrim OSTs, and I have a couple versions of Dragonborn Comes on my playlist somewhere. But, em... well, let's not compare how much it costs to hire an orchestra vs hiring professional singers/idols...mostly because it seems to be a pure cultural thing that Western games prefer pure instrumental OSTs exclusively, while Eastern games will have a mix (instrumental versions of songs in game, and vocal versions for advertising and pure showing off). But still, style of music aside, I still gotta say the venue and post-production of the western performance is simply incomparable to the east.
