More lyricless primal theme

[Arutan]

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.

I did, I edited right after posting lol. That still makes 3 primals over 14 without lyrics

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.

I absolutely love Sephirots theme :/

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.

True I could add Odin and Garuda. Tho even if Enkidu is a primal, their theme isn't really an FFXIV OST. The phase 1 with Enkidu is the original OST from FFV and the phase 2 without Enkidu is a remastered of it. As for Ultros and Typhon, they aren't primals, they're voidsent and their theme is FFVI's OST.
