Kind of a silly, pointless little thing, but... I was going through my FFXI soundtracks the other day, and I happened upon Vana'diel March #3 (the CoP-era one), and I got an absolutely massive nostalgia hit from it. I'd played the game from NA release but I only really got into it at around the end of the CoP era, and hearing that Vana'diel March set off a lot of good memories of being relatively new to the game. It got me thinking, and then I went and listened to all of the Vana'diel March themes, and then...
...wondered why we don't hear them anymore? They're really excellent login screen / march themes, and it seems a shame that they're not really in use. I think it would be awesome if, upon login, it'd randomly select one of the five themes to play, since it's been so long since we've got a new login music to listen to, and we're -probably- not going to get another one, unless there's a boxed expansion coming for late 2011 or early 2012 or something like that that we don't know about.
There are a lot of players who never logged in to the earlier Vana'diel marches, and a lot of players who -have- and would probably get a smile from hearing one of the old familiar tunes playing upon login. I don't know how hard this would be to program in, but I think it might be a fun little modification to remind everyone of the game's history.
Thanks for reading!
