i noticed is some areas in this game, and ff11 there were some maps that had music that would replay over and over again. i rally enjoyed that and like to know if there are any plans on this in 2.5-3.0

I love the music for Shiva it was real different to have something like an slow pase but then intensifies as it goes on then changes completely on the phase change into a rock and roll type. What kind of process do you use to come up with the music. Also do you have any plans on puting the sound tracks on sites like I tunes.

Will we ever ever ever be able to turn off the battle music or get different themes for it??

It feels somewhat strange when the music suddenly goes silent for a minute or so in each zone/area when the music has played once, similar to Pharos Sirius. Are there any plans for looping music in the outdoor zones? Music that plays in areas such as Floating City of Nym/ The Burning Wall are nice, but are over after just about half a minute of playing.

One of my favorite FF songs is Dancing Mad is there any plans to have this added to a future patch / expansion ?

Can we get an option to turn off battle music?

Will there be different battle musics depending on the region?
Like one set different themes for Normal Battle, FATE and boss battle in the Black Shroud, Thanaland, La Noscea, Coerthas and Mor Donnah?

[Sakasa]

Can we expect any jazz inspired sound tracks for dungeons in 2.5 or in Havensward?

Hello! Thank you for accepting our questions!

Will there be another remix of the Coerthas battle theme in the new Heaven's Ward expansion? Can you explain how you decided to use certain instruments for different versions of the battle theme in each area? (For example, harpsichord for Coerthas, choir for Mor Dhona, and flutes for Vylbrand?)
