    More lyricless primal theme

    Don't get me wrong here, I pretty much love every BGM in this game. But I noticed that almost no primal have a theme without lyric, Ifrit and Bismarck and Zurvan being the only ones. And I really loved Bismarck's fight, starting phase 2, "Woe that is madness" really render well there, and I really love that there was no need of lyrics to make it feels powerful, just like "Infinity" for Zurvan. I wish we could have more primal theme in the future without lyric to be able to enjoy the music only.

    I take it that you haven't fought Zurvan yet.

    the whole background music in this game is instrumental. That means like 99% of this game is without vocals.

    heck, even every boss fight in every other game is without any vocals.

    for once a game actually does some epic music with vocals on a few bosses and youre requesting that to be changed?

    get out. thanks.

    Firstly I'm not asking to stop doing theme with lyrics for bosses at all. I'm just asking to balance it a bit more.
    And secondly, you know why games don't make all the BGM with lyrics? Because that would be annoying af and I don't think much people would actually enjoy playing a game where you hear a singing voice all the time.

    hence why its so special. its only on some bosses. No need to decrease that even more.

    The lyrics are fine, half the time I don't even notice them. I don't look in depth into what the words are, but they enhance the song in a way that isn't distracting. Ramoo, Sophia, and Thordan are pretty good examples of this. The only exceptions (for me) are Ravana and Sephirot... their songs make me cringe.

    you should add Odin and a certain one from a certain raid to the list.
    Garuda only says some "Aaaah" stuff and "now fall" if I recall? Rest is all music.
    Titan is a good in-between.
    Leviathan isn't much of a song... and the music is the main lead to its beat.
    What about Gilgamesh? It has no lyrics. He himself isn't a primal, but Enkidu is.
    Then we have Ultros and Typhoon.

    I think in general I've liked the ones with lyrics more, feels like a nice touch that each one sings to me in their own theme - each having their own Hymn of Fayth (FFX).

    I'm not opposed to lyric-less ones, just tossing out that I actually like them.

    I think a better suggestion is the ability to toggle between instrumental and vocal versions.

    Because trying to create a balance from here on out is not realistic. Its possible but that would mean ensuring all future trials are vocal-less until the numbers are equal. That would also mean having whoever's in charge of music to stifle their own creativity just to suit a niche of players who want vocal-less music in trials.

If you're capable of healing DRK back in ShB (or any tanks), then you'll heal EW DRK just fine.
