Guild Wars 2

Just a small thing about music, but when I was playing FFXIV there were these things called guildleves. They had their own distinct theme which made it a lot more exciting than it should of been.

I think GW2’s adventures or anything similar should have their own exciting theme while an adventure is active. Right now, to my knowledge, it does not have anything.

For those who don’t know what guildleve theme sounds like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYqOKw5NzY0

Of course, the music would be in the theme of GW2 but I think Maclaine could do a spot on job with this and it would be easy to implement (replace theme when adventure starts, fade out when it ends).

In fact, a lot of things in GW2 could use some sound updating. A lot of stuff sounds so bland, like when guild missions start or during some champion fights (which usually have nothing).

You know, that it is possible here in GW2 to hear whichever music you want?
You can replace the music you want to hear with the OST from GW2.

However, I understand the suggestion and would find it personally also nice, if some kind of specific catchy original music theme would start, when we do Adventures in GW2 that is significantly different from everything that we heard so far.

Maybe also changing ones, based on the situation of the adventure, in regard of if the adventure is currently at the moment a peaceful thing, or somethign that is far mor dangerous, so that the music catches also the mood of the situations.
That would I like

You cannot replace something that isn’t there. Which further pushes my point.

If you don’t know it yet:

Otherwise I don’t get what you mean with “something that isn’t there”
The function that I decribed clearly exists as you can see above.

Or in case of it, that you mean with “instn there” the responding “Playlist”, if that is somethign ,that is maybe pregiven by ANet and can#t be changed by the individual player pershaps, as I don’t know thatm never used this function until toda,y but just know,m that it exists, then you might be right naturally, because in that case, Anet would have to add first the playlist for “Adventures”, so that the game would know, which customized music the game should play once you start in the game an adventure if thats it, what you meant ^^

This.

There is no playlist for guild missions, for many boss fights, for adventures, etc. I already knew about the music changing thing but there has to be something if you want to replace it. How do you replace an OST that doesn’t exist?

We don’t have Adventures yet, either. Maybe they will come with their own playlist, maybe not.

There is a nice interview with MacLaine concerning the upcoming Heart of Thorns release on YouTube. You may find it interesting.

Good luck.
