    [Request] Orchestrion Linkpearl

    Can we get an orchestrian linkpearl item that allows us to listen to our Orchestrion rolls out in the world, and without the need for a house (or standing in the inn)? They would act like headphones in that only you can hear the music, and it isnt directional (it basically changes the background music).

    It can (and should) still be craftable, but would be consumed upon use, and would add the orchestrian linkpearl menu (which is basically the same as the orchestrion menu) to the main UI (or even the HUD).

    I feel this change would make the feature more accessible, but also not invalidate the existing orchestrion, as the current version is like a jukebox that can be heard by multiple people, and is more social than the linkpearl idea

    I agree with this. The pros of the current system, you can play records you have to others who don't have them, for example in FC house. Cons, you are at the whim of someone else's music choise. With this inaddition to the current system I can either enjoy of music the others play (and which may not be available to me yet) but I fan also choose something else than silence when I happen to be in minority who don't like the currently FC played song.

    If you say 'pls' because it's shorter than 'please', I say 'no' because it's shorter than 'yes'.

    Yeah, this is the line of thinking that I was going with, both systems can easily co-exist, with this one being more suited to those without housing, and want to listen to music in the open world. Some might say "Just play the OST," but thats not the point. This system gives the 99% of players who dont have a house a reason to collect the songs for personal use.
