(Suggestion) Music at Night

[Nehm]

I'm not sure this is the correct forum to post this, but:

 

Having put ~200 hours into the game the month of release, I finally decided to dive back into the game after waiting for all DLC releases.  Having played again for about 15 hours, I felt something was.... off about the music at night.  I initially thought I was simply misremembering until I did a quick search and came across these two threads:

I'd like to suggest a way to disable these features and go back to how it was prior to adding the night-time specific tracks, as I vastly prefer the way it was prior to these changes.... I can't be the only one who feels this way . 

 

The same few music tracks being played in almost every zone at night is starting to get a bit old.  It's especially immersion breaking when what feels like an outdoorsy, Dyrwoodan-ish theme is playing in a place like Delver's Row.  More so when you realize how often and in how many different atmospheres those same tracks are playing.

 

I can appreciate the idea, but I feel like the implementation wasn't exactly stellar, especially given that the original music for most areas were more or less unique and, in my opinion, fit well with the themes of the Deadfire.

I'm totally agree with that. This was not a welcome change for me neither.

This track belong to the first Pillars, for eternity

I'm a huge fan of nightly music in general and I think the track is a fairly good fit but it is unfortunate that it's one single track used for every single city location when it's night. It does get fatiguing, even if you don't mind the fact that it's from PoE1.

 

If there ever is a PoE3, I hope they will keep it mind and maybe do something unique for nighttime from the get-go. It's a huge thing for the atmosphere in Baldur's Gate.

Hey everyone!

 

I can definitely put in a request so it'll at least be seen and possibly remembered for future games, but I can't make any promises that any changes will be made for this a this in Deadfire at this point.  I'll keep my fingers crossed

 

Thanks for the suggestion!
