    Rotating Guildleve Music Please.

    I dont know about everyone else. I've been a fan of Final Fantasy music for quite some time now. I love it all. I am kinda getting sick of logging in with the little time I have, doing things on the La noscea continent so I dont have to use Anima traveling around, instead I'm trying to enjoy scenery. My point. Is it possible to get some rotating guildleve music? I know most people turn their sound off (music anyways) not me. How about gor the people who dear have to hear it, we have the battle musi. For normal fights, and normal leves be on random from the three main continents? I dread doing solo events cause you always hear the same damn song over and over! Can someone get in on me with this one please?

    No thanks. Each song is meant to fit into that certain zone. Let's not ruin nation identities.

    More music in general certainly wouldn't hurt though...

    I don't know, if you blindfolded me, I don't know that I could tell the difference between the various Ul'dah and Black Shroud guildleve music. Certainly not that one feels more appropriate to a given region than another.

    You'd need a real ear for music as well as an understanding about the lay of the land. Take Shrouds's guildleve music (Guildleve Theme) plus the battle theme in general (Battle Theme) then take the location being in a deep, dark, mysterious and dangerous forest compounded with the constant feeling of being marked with woodsin creeping up your spine by being an outsider, then take Thanalan's sweeping, endless desert landscape while knowing it used to once be forested at a point in time and listen to the music. (Thanalan's Guildleve Theme)

    Shroud's themes wouldn't fit at all with Thanalan in it's current design, maybe if they compose more music for the specific regions, sure, but when you think of music you have to think of the overall theme of it and why it's playing there.

    You must not be listening then, seeing as leve music has the field music of their respective regions baked right into them.
