Guild Wars 2

Does the Halloween song that plays in Lions Arch seem updated to anyone? Like the instruments used in it sound a lot crisper?

Think it’s still the same.

I dont think it is though. I know this version of it but if I remember they said they were going to use live orchestra for new music used in living story from now on. It sounds to me like they recorded a new version of this song with live instruments.

Aha, maybe they will put it on their Soundcloud in the near future!

Its even better!

Thanks for letting us know!

Mmm, now I can hear the differences between the versions. This one really sounds much better!

Sorry for the late reply, but yes, we updated two pieces of the Halloween music this year with live recordings. I believe Maclaine improved quite a few things in the composition and arrangement as well. Glad you’re all enjoying them!

I absolutely love the updated version! You said there was two updated songs for Halloween, is the other one the clocktower? If it is, I haven’t found it on the soundcloud yet! Also could there be anyway you could post the list of songs used in LA for Halloween?

Any link to the updated 2nd track, Keenan? Unfortunately I couldn’t find a way to search for it on Soundcloud.

Maclaine Diemer.7693:

We did indeed update the Halloween music in our last recording sessions, but only two of the pieces. We released the second on today on Soundcloud:

I thought about redoing the Clocktower, but since a lot of it is just sound effects stuff, and the timing is very specific to the length of the puzzle, I figured it was easier to leave it as is, at least for now.

You are wonderful! Thank you so much! Love the updated pieces!

I’m OK with leaving the Clocktower music as it is. It’s awesome right now anyway.
