PLEASE Let Us Change or Remove Combat Music!!!

[Souljacker]

I agree. I remember back when XI forced mages (who never had to engage the mob) to listen to the battle music. It was AWFUL. Some of my fondest memories was listening to the music in Caedarva Mire, only occasionally interrupted by the bleating of an imp. Good times. I'd also like to disable battle music and only hear the dungeon. The battle music is mostly terrible, especially after listening to it loop over, and over, and OVER again.

I totally disagree with anyone who says the battle music in this game is bad or annoying. This MMO has some of the best music I've ever heard in an MMO. That being said, I do wish the dungeons had their own unique themes (maybe even battle themes) instead of the same themes used over and over, or that those that have unique themes would be allowed to play them and skip battle music entirely. Imagine, for instance, the Pharos Sirius theme extended, with unique encounter triggers that change the music subtly.

I just mute the music, then play my own tunes >.>...

this is definatley a mood/immerson breaker...

its like turning off the sound of a movie and just reading the subtitles while you hear your electro funky music..
no this is not right.. i want to experience the game and not "David Guetta XYZ". plus i cant concentrate that good on whats going on in the game. sounds strange, but thats the way it is for me

[reillyblair]

i mute the music and play ffx soundtrack just not a fan of the composer for xiv and that soundtrack fits in well with everything maybe they could let us change to previous final fantasy music scores that would be cool

People arguing against this OPTION...

Seriously, if you want it to stay the same just keep it enabled come patch day.

I remember the dev's saying the wont do anything music wise to the dungeons pre 50 but thankfully the new ones have different themes like the Quarn one

[giantslayer]

Yes, PLEASE! Please!!! let us turn off battle music, FATE music and the repetitive music clips that play when you start or finish a quest/leve
PLEASE!!!!

I especially agree with the quest/leve start/finish music, mostly on the grounds that if I have the rest of my music to a good level, it is way too loud.

[Zephyranthes]

For the new dungeons, I do miss the battle BGM at times to be honest. If SE could incorporate randomness of it playing, that would be great.

[Autumnfire]

I absolutely concur. It's especially obnoxious when its CONSTANTLY switching in and out of the battle music. It's like someone channel flipping the radio. It's awful. And it really takes away from the environment. Having a toggle option like the chocobo music would be perfect.

^good analogy... it is just like that; it's irritating!
