Let's talk music - Dawntrail really drops the ball reusing old themes

I put "Machinations" on loop in my FC estate (as a prank).

I actually never realized what that music's title was, I always just associated the tune with "ok here's the cutscene where we get down to business." But to be fair, that theme has been used a ton in every expansion since ARR, so I honestly wasn't as bothered by that one popping up.

Whenever I hear Machinations, I know it's a cutscene I can skip. What a horrible tune. It's not just overused, but it's such a gratingly loud and obnoxious song as well.

I always associate it with Northern Thanalan since it plays in the safe-havens there. It's one of my least favorite zones for that reason.

The song is a nervous tic at this point where you can just feel them sweating when they've gone through too many cutscenes without tossing it in.
