SPOILER BEWARE!! MUSIC Discussion

[Lunafreya]

Just like I said in the other thread, there's zero reason to change it given all the MSQ implications the song brought.

We have the Tower of Zot from FF4; can we also get Within the Giant and Tower of Babil?

[Conundrum]

I'm going to assume most of the "don't change it" people, don't actually spend much time there or are just being contrary to be contrary. I love the song, but within a few minutes get sick of it when doing fates or side quests.

I have been on and off looping the song for several hours a day every day since I first heard it in msq. When I'm not looping that I'm looping my other favourite tracks from EW. I frequently do this with music I enjoy. Even as a kid I would rewind cassettes over and over to hear the same song again. However I am aware that there are those who would never do that no matter how much they enjoy a piece of music. And there are those somewhere in the middle. We're all different.

Currently there is a toggle for residential areas to play the housing music or the city music for the corresponding city instead. SE could introduce a similar toggle for Ultima Thule so you can choose which version of the track you would like to hear. That way everyone can get what they want without depriving someone else of what they want. Problem solved.

I gather there regularly and have done all the FATEs there, hunts and every other thing. I love the song and it doesn't bother me one bit. I'd be sad to see it removed. People mention having the mute the BMG but I'd probably mute the instrumental version as that version of the song loops in 30 seconds. I do support toggles but otherwise this is a change that would likely impact all players across the board including those of us that genuinely like it.

Personally, I did not like the overwhelmingly depressing music that zone started with and prefer the song on loop. At least it's uplifting. If I'm tired of zone music, I either make sure my mount music is on, or turn off the background music and listen to my spotify. Easily solved.

The irony about this solution is that even were the music reverted back to the instrumental version. This is most likely what many people would resort to doing anyway regardless of which version is being played.

[Unease_Lemming]

Very much supporting this, at least an option to switch to "stage 2" version of this song would be amazing.

Same as many, I feel the vocal version was fantastic for the Endwalker finish line, but is simply way too repetitive for a zone track due to the vocals.

[KitKatnip]

I do love the song but I wish it wasn't on a continuous loop. I might have to turn mount music back on when I'm gathering in the zone just so I have a little variety.

[Lauront]

I liked the muffled ambient theme it started with better.

[Awarewolf]

Totally agreed. Oh and change the Pelaton sound effect.
