Magitek Mount Music

[Bebekurenai]

And how is the FF6 boss battle theme in the Dragon's Neck not exclusive, SE?

Just thought of something amid my morning routine but

After the Live Letter at fanfest I was able to grab Yoshida's attention for a quick question about this. I told him about us as fans wanting this song and he said he will talk to Soken to get it done for us! YAY!

They did say that another hero was gonna visit soon to Eorzea for vanity stuff like Lightning, so maybe it'll be Terra with a VI magitek mount? Hell it could be Biggs and Wedge who were sent to supposedly oblivion by Valigarmanda. Maybe I'm still tired but could be a chance if there is a hint of truth to that post.

Apparently there was some issue with the rights to the song because Nobuo Uematsu is no longer attached to the project. I'm not sure how true this is, especially since another song from the same game makes an appearance in 2.4, but copyright is a very tricky thing in general so who knows. There's a reason there have to be lawyers who specifically specialize in copyright law.
It would also explain the lack of transparency since the CMs legally can't comment on something involving lawyers and contracts (or if they can, it's better that they don't)

I saw this thread and went looking for that exact message! thanks for saving me the time ^.^/

I would use that mount more often if they added that song to it.

Because Ultros and Typhon are both FFVI bosses. Same exact characters.

Their argument is that this is supposed to be a totally different Magitek armor, which is...kind of weak because it's so blatant where the armor design comes from, and they already went through the trouble of making a remix tune for that one trailer.

I don't think anyone would complain that this ruins the unique qualities of Eorzea if they threw it in, especially since the Crystal Tower is directly lifted from FFIII designs, and they didn't hold back from including music from FFIII for that while still trying to make it appear totally different lore-wise from FFIII's version. You don't see a ton of people complaining that this ruins the atmosphere.

Literally no good reason not to have this in the game already.
