I posted this over in the 2K forums as well.
As much as I like Scotland the Brave, it doesn't make sense thematically. All of the songs they've used have been folk songs which fits the narrative of starting with a tune that some random musician played that went viral and became a symbol of the culture, but they didnt use Anthems because of the idea that Anthems are a product of modern Nationalism. Isn't the one in the game Scotland's Anthem? They should have used Scots Wha Hae which was written with the lyrics based on a speech made by Bruce himself and the tune Hey Tuttie Tatie, a melody they played before the battle of Bannockburn
