Buuumping this thread of great justice against a great injustice of lame excuses that don't hold up!

[Koroem]

Have to chime in on this one. I'm not really angry nor have I been active in this thread since its creation, but that is the worst excuse you could have given. You teased the release of the Magitek with the song, and even a video with LIKENESSES of those characters over a year ago, but yet its not FFXIV centric?Why tease it like that then say no when the fans want/expect it? Hypocritical without question. There are countless examples in this game with throwback type character/content. I can understand if you don't want to apply it to the story mount, but restricting it from the gold one or even a new one in the near future is downright disappointing.

Remember Yoshida's words:

"FFXIV will be a fanservice title."

So that little "reenactment" was the fanservice pretty much

That link is an article about studies done on nostalgia.

"Nostalgia has been shown to counteract loneliness, boredom and anxiety. It makes people more generous to strangers and more tolerant of outsiders. Couples feel closer and look happier when they’re sharing nostalgic memories. On cold days, or in cold rooms, people use nostalgia to literally feel warmer."

And then comes the best part!

"A quick way to induce nostalgia is through music, which has become a favorite tool of researchers."

You have to put that music with that mount. You will be improving everyone's mood and mental health. Players will be less depressed and more charitable to their fellow players. The lives of everyone playing this game will be made better. It is your moral duty, then, to get that tune in the game. 2 million+ lives depend on it.

The lore team should reconsider their decision. As pointed before:

1- FF II battle music.
2- Labyrinth of the Ancients featuring Acheron. FFIII. Music included.
3- Syrcus Tower, featuring all the Eureka's bosses and Xande. FFIII. Music included.
4- Several weapon's names from other FFs.
5- Lightning FATE events. FF XIII (Theme: Blinded by light included). Even if it's a promotional spot, it does count!
6- Gilgamesh FFV and his battle theme.
7- The mandragora guys from FFXII, part of the Hildy's questline in 2.3.

As this post points out:

Square Why Tease us like this and then tell us no you can't do it?

So, I invite the team to reconsider their decision, because WE the fans don't care if it part of the lore or not. We are asking for the tune, not a Terra outfit or anything. It's a simple request.

I can actually see where they're coming from... Terra's Theme and the Magitek Mount are only loosely related, it was the overworld theme if memory servers. The Magitek in FFVI didn't have a specific theme like Crystal Tower did.

That said, the current music for the Magitek Mount is just horribly out of place. If Terra's Theme is a no go, then like someone suggested earlier; this is perfect, considering you wasted the chance to put it in Praetorium during the Magitek Research Facility section (Oh wait, we're on Magitek Mounts for that section, so it could play over the regular Praetorium theme too!).

The reasoning behind Terra's Theme being used is the fact that the opening of Final Fantasy VI had her riding to Narshe alongside Biggs and Wedge during the opening credits. As far as theme's go in the Final Fantasy world, this one is extremely iconic.

Yes please! Would definitely love to hear this tune for the magitech mount. It would actually give me a reason to use the magitech mount.

I know it's iconic, but it is only related to the opening and the overworld theme; not Magitek Mounts. On the whole it doesn't even really work as mount music (it's fine at walking pace, but that's it), while something like Devil's Lab does, and has a much greater relation to Magitek in general.
