EA used to do this even before Microsoft!
They have their own music system called “Pathfinder” which controls music interactively in little chunks.
I believe it was first used in NFS 2, which came out before DirectMusic.
If you’ve heard the pursuit music in NFSMW 2005 or Carbon’s Canyon music, that’s Pathfinder! It was also used in Medal of Honor and Red Alert 3.
I like it but it has a couple tiny issues:
Font title is the same weight as the rest of the post, making it hard to make things out from afar.
Scrolling for me often results in “reaching the end” when there’s more posts below, causing me to have to refresh often. (At least, this is the case on iOS and not on my desktop.)
