    Any chance Square could change the music that plays while you ride the Falcon mount?

    I know it's probably a long shot not sure how often Square staff reads the forums but would really like the mount song that plays when you ride the Falcon airship mount to be Searching For Friends instead of what it is currently. Nothing wrong with it but kinda disappointed it's one of the generic mount themes when the mount itself is the airship you get in the WoR in Final Fantasy VI. They did change the magitek armor music to Terra's theme so still kinda holding out hope they'll change the Falcon's music.

    For those that haven't played Final Fantasy VI or those that can't remember the song this is it - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-ClGdaICGI

    The devs have commented on this in years past, and the answer amounted to there being a limit on the number of songs they can attach to mounts(which they've presumably already hit, or if not they're reserving those slots for cash shop mounts). Your guess is as good as mine as to how that's even a thing.

    Who knows. Since it was originally given out during an event to celebrate the release of Stormblood maybe they'll add it to the mogshop and change the music then.

    Magitek Armour having it's music changed to Terra's Theme (renamed on the OST as 'Magitecknical Difficulties') was a unique situation though (Soken had already arranged the track as part of a promotion for ARR prior to it's release; rumoured, apparently, without prior permission from Nobuo Uematsu, although I have no idea if that was true or not (it is very unlikely), it took quite a long time for that to appear as the Magitek Armour's mount theme (it also helped it was requested by fans direct to the development team at a Fanfest so Yoshi and Soken specifically knew players wanted that particular mount music changed).

    So alas that was a unique set of circumstances I do not see them changing for the Falcon sadly.

    I agree! 10/10, top quality suggestion.

    Uuuuugghhh, that sounds so FFXIV it hurts. It wouldn't surprise me if the expansions all have single-word titles because somewhere deep in the underdark of the original game's code, there's a line disabling spaces in expansion names due to PS3 limitations or something. After Endwalker, they're going to run out and all dialogue going forward will have to be cleverly stitched together clippings of the pre-existing script.
