Please re-implement music fade-in and fade-out

[Colino]

I know this is a very minor complaint in the grand scheme of things, but PLEASE make music fade in and out just like it used to. I had no issues with how it worked but now it's extremely annoying to switch from one background music to another with no delay.

This is frustrating because the music simply skips from one tune to the next, if you've done any levequests since the update you'll notice how the victory theme just jumps out of nowhere and attacks your ears...

I'm not sure what was wrong with it before that prompted the devs to make this change but I can assure it's a very annoying and pointless change.

I think most of the Japanese players complained about the fade-in and fade-out. Personally I prefer it without fading.

but... why? It made more sense than the song INSTANTLY changing into something else... You ever seen a movie or listened to an album where that happens consistently? I sure haven't.

With the fades it seemed it took awhile for the music to start up and end. Anyway having the songs start up instantly doesn't bother me, I'm used to it from FFXI.

Then shorten the fade in/fade out time? It doesn't mean you have to remove it completely. It's like rather than fixing things they just prefer to remove them entirely...

Eh they could do that. I really don't care either way. I wasn't bothered by the fading either, I just like the game more without it. If they put it back in, then whatever.

Because every FF game or RPG for that matter has instantly switching tracks whenever something happens?

Hardly worth complaining about.

Thanks for the wonderful insight and thanks for not reading my opening post at all.

Umm... no? This wasn't the first game to have fade-in/out. Not sure how you came to that conclusion.

He read it, but his point still stands. In the grand scheme of things, it's really not that big a deal. Seriously.
