The Music

"uh, yeah"

Im a musician. Im pretty snooty and all about that, but I would realy like to compliment the composer(s) on his nice scores. Aspecialy the use of the harp. Some of the inflection in one of the tunes arpegiation the harp playes through is so distinct and clear that I could almost swear its an actual harpist playing with dry fingers and long finger nails.

Regardless, I need to complain. The scores themselves seem to switch too much and its pretty much a battle-break type deal when the tracks change or the ones I like dont play but for 5 seconds because the universe at large has changed somehow.However, it mite be awesome if we could get the composer to make a scad(a number larger than 7) or two more tracks and make them available to the player with an auto shutoff switch for the track changeup during fights and peace time and so on...with say, a small switch off somewhere in the main UI that the player could select from a dropdown with volume and pause and track selection list.

The reason for me is that I get cranky because I cant transcribe some of whats been composed, but on the more practical side it mite be nice for players to be able to spam in-game their own music files so as to be conducive to what a game like this realy is, a glorious meditation, and I am positive I am not alone in that department.

The composer goes by the name of Psugar on the forum, and yes he has made some really good music.
But as he said in this post, that he also were not happy with some of them, so expect a change in some of them

There will btw be around 3 CD's worth of music if i remember correctly, at release

While I don't see why you'd want to, there's a file somewhere that I think you could mod to make the game play your own music (.ogg files only probably).

The upcoming patch does some work on the way music plays in the game as well.

Cool. I want to hear more of that harp playing over the #11/13 minor third progression using the b7 like a b9.
