I dunno.... I'd support this, but given their track record on updates concerning anything regarding sound or music.......
It's going to be a buggy, broken mess, far worse than what it is right now. You'll be bleeding from your ears and heart with every sound or lack thereof that this game makes.
Also, every update they make has been against immersion. I don't think they want us to get immersed in this world. Just grind monsters, kill other players and flex.
Sorry, I'm just bitter about where this game has been going the past year and a half......
I will never forget April 13th, 2022, a day of perpetual woe.
Ah that's a shame, I quite liked the eternal winter music and the update to older music, I just wish it was implemented better. Balenos and Calpheon have some fantastic melodies but I feel like anytime I'm wandering around those areas, I hear intense battle music like I'm fighting Elion, or places like serendia just have "generic orchestral noise" with no memorable melody and it doesn't really fit what's going on in the game, like I'll be taking my trade wagon somewhere or picking some herbs and the music sounds like something from a movie scene.
For music, I'd love if each zone had a nice base melody that had 3-5 variations that played on loop, adding a 1 minute timer between tracks was a mistake imo because sometimes I want to keep hearing music and the dead silence is awkward. They can do it like WoW where you can enable music to play once and also have the option to loop. Also when a song starts, it should play to finish imo because if you're running through zones it's kinda annoying to have music constantly changing and sometimes I wanna let one play out but I don't want to stay in that area just to hear it.

This and farm 2 are probably my favorite tracks just for how simple and thematic they are, if they did tracks like these everywhere and kept the orchestral noise to a minimum I think it'd be super immersive. If music is too busy and distracting, it takes away from the game experience.
