I'm maybe an outlier but I'm always surprised by how little praise this game gets on this board to the point where I suspect most people haven't really played it much.

People go on and on about the series 'stagnating' while 17 feels really different to the other games where the 'grimdark' shit is a lot more obvious which makes it tonally very different to the other games. The animal realm and its associated characters are all interesting and don't exist in a vacuum from other characters (Which I think is something ZUN has realized is important to making characters interesting and why Yuuma later was shown to have relationships with other old characters), genre variety was good and the systems/stages/bosses were good. Music is consistently good and varied. Only complaint I'd make is that while the normal final boss is a good climax in how it plays out, storywise it isn't very significant and making the bulk of the story 'protagonist goes after the wrong person' and then hurriedly resolving the actual plot in the extra stage was a weird choice.

I think 17 was so good that it made UM look boring and rote purely by comparison, while UM is imo actually pretty fine when compared to the wider series.

Enough about good 2hu music, what is ZUN's worst track? Is there any stage or boss theme that you don't like enough so you'd rather…
