New Battle Music (for V7)

[Kumog]

As we all know, the current battle theme is from Final Fantasy Tactics...and grows quite stale very fast. In my opinion, the music makes the game feel slower than it is since it has such a slow pace to it.

Hence, my suggestion is this: Change the battle theme for this version to something a bit faster, such as one of these midis...

(For comparison, the current battle midi is www.vgmusic.com/music/console/sony/ps1/fft_211.mid )

I feel that with a faster style of battle theme, the game wouldn't feel as slow as it does now, and could help us gain more players before V8 comes out with its musical overhaul and whatnot.

Also, a suggestion that would last for V8's revision...multiple battle themes that could go off, so that we don't always hear the same battle music everywhere. Even a second battle theme helps stave off staleness for quite some time.

Opinions/Suggestions?

Different battle musicks for different areas and environmental settings is something we've all wanted for a long while now. Feel free to PM-rape Tral about it and suggest it to him.

I thought we're just supposed to kick his ass for never doing anything? I'm not into the whole rape scene.

Mega Edit: All those MIDIs sound rather... blatty, for lack of a better description. I doubt that the BH will be replacing tunes in v7, but instead making us wait on v8/continue playing our own shit in Winamp. If they did decide such a thing, some better quality MIDIs would be in order.

All the current music will be custom/original anyways. PM Tral about it, or send him emails. His email address is listed on the FFTHG website under "staff/contacts" thingies.
