Mounts and music: An option for multiple themes please?

Hello!

:: DISCLAIMER!! :: I understand the dev team have many important requests and such to get to, but I see no harm in simply asking, and hoping they take notice and eventually get to this if they see fit and can.

I'd like to bring to yours and the Dev teams attention of the beautiful music both Soken and Uematsu have brought to FFXIV as a whole in particular!! I've enjoyed almost every single piece of music! Especially the following themes:

• Footsteps in the Snow
• *The Warrens
• Limitless Blue
• The Hand that Gives the Rose
• Sephirot's phase 2 theme

(*Could we also get this for Fenrir please? Seems sort of appropriate.)

Please Dev team is there any way possible you could make some sort of toggle switch in our options or anything that would be doable for us, to enjoy these themes on their respective horse or bird mounts. I was actually surprised and saddened you guys changed your phase 2 theme for Sephirot's bird only, which was FINALLY a phase 2 theme I preferred over the phase 1 (figures /sigh).

I enjoy and love the Phase 2 and Sephirot's Phase 1 theme very very much! But these are my favorites and would give new life and variety (at least to the ponies) for these mount(s)! Also could work for Titan (if possible) and Leviathan's ponies and their themes as well! If any way possible please look into this SE Devs.

Thank you very much if you so happen to come across this thread!

EDIT:
Update - Well they're going to change the music on the Gobwalker mount it seems, I don't see why they couldn't look into a solution for these while they are at it please.

Also, thanks for all the feedback regarding mounts and their music. Please continue to share your thoughts, and we'll be sure to pass them along to the team! :)

Agree, those mounts need option to play which bgm phase to play.

And I just know Ravana's first phase bgm title is "The Hand that Gives the Rose" :eek:

Totally want this song on Orchestrion too.

I completely agree! Especially the ones you mentioned, but also the rest of the primals. I don't think it would be too hard to add either, just a text command called like... /togglemusic or /tmusic or something.
It's an awesome idea. Go SE, go!

Please. Oh please, that would be magnificent!

Vote for /cmusic!

Please Square, do that

Yes please! Titan's mount would have 5 musics lol

They won't add it right now or else they won't have anything more in their sleeve to make players play old content :T firts let them the time to increase the mount droo rate to give people hope and make them farm primals harder

Yes! Yes! A million times yes!!!

SE should have add new item for us : High Allagan MP3 Portable Player.

Do you suppose magitek armor has a built in stereo system?
Like.. is Livia riding around on her white reaper listening to the awesome theme music all day? Because if so i can totally understand her superiority complex now

And yes i would love to be able to shuffle music once in awhile, some mounts just have really unfitting music, i was so glad when they changed Sleipnir to play the Odin battle music when ridden.

I read that the Sephi ex second theme is copywritten, which is why it can't be used on the bird. I am sad if that is in fact true. I can't remember if this was ever answered, but I wonder if the same can be said abut Moogle theme and why we never got a mount for Moogle.

I completely agree with the OP on this though. I would love an option to switch between the tracks. I love Shiva's first theme so much more. (though I do enjoy the second one as well)

There never really was any kind of copyright infringement issue ever really there, just people taking things way out of proportion and what not. So that is a non-issue honestly as to why they didn't put Phase 2, like they had been doing for all horse/bird mounts, on Sephirot's mount. And same for King Moggle Mog XII's theme, it isn't what people think... again, it's a remix of FFV's original moogle theme which came out before another certain song in question. @.@

Anyway as to not stray from the original topic please, since those particular topics have threads of their own, again I still wonder why the phase 2 theme... theme (lol) was broken for Sephirot's mount. And I hope we see some kind of answer to this inquiry soon! Please and thank you Mods/Devs.
