Actually, it was to be expected: After Mick Gordon’s long statement regarding the soundtrack to Doom Eternal, Bethesda is now shooting back and rejecting the allegations in the strongest possible terms.
Ding-ding-ding, welcome to the next round in the dispute between Bethesda and composer Mick Gordon. The subject of the dispute is the soundtrack to Doom Eternal. After the studio and freelancer split, there was a long silence until Marty Stratton released a statement blaming Mick. Gordon was silent for a long time, shot back last week with a long statement against his old client and made serious allegations. There is talk of unpaid work, unmanageable deadlines and the partial destruction of his reputation.

Of course, Bethesda does not want to let these allegations rest and has now responded on Twitter. Unsurprisingly, the studio denies all claims, stating that Gordon misrepresented conditions during development, as did the id Software team.

You know all the details of the disputes and stand behind the development studio id as well as the studio director Marty Stratton and the lead audio designer Chad Mossholder without ifs and buts. In addition, Bethesda has comprehensive documents that could clarify the matter in their favor at any time.
The statement that Mick Gordon’s statement led to Marty, Chad and other members of the id team becoming victims of harassment is also unpleasant. Here, too, Bethesda stands behind its own employees without compromise and will take legal action if necessary. In conclusion, despite the current disputes, one is very proud of working together with Mick and urges his fans to refrain from attacks on the id team and other people.
