knowing they won't even try it because they're incompetent

Pretty reasonable conclusion there. Can't disagree, I don't expect them to try any of this ***. It's just a shame, because most of it is not terribly complex to implement.

As an FYI, two new songs were in September's update files, #31 and #32. I added them to the setbgm addon and pushed a commit, but it has not been published yet.

You can manually replace your entire setbgm.lua file with the following to listen to the music and not have to wait for the file. Type //setbgm 31 or //setbgm 32. Reload the lua if your in game while you replace it.

This following is my personal opinion on what they sound like.

I have not done any VR yet, so correct me if they were used in missions this month.


31 reminds me of zone music with a spooky vibe, like caedarva/yorcia/arrapago reef

32 sounds like an "inquisitive" theme, maybe a moogle theme, of some type.

I quit/taking a long break because of Odyssey. Couldn't find a group of people motivated enough or who had enough free time to go when I could go.

I honestly didn't enjoy it much either, but I think that was because I was tired of going with randoms and it feeling forced as daily content.

edit; oops didnt realize i was bumping an older post

They're used in the new missions. After playing through them I thought they had added 3 new songs.

;/. it kinda has this feelings of expiration on the content. When most people finish their r15 equipment they will most likely not want to redo the content anymore. I really think SE needs to adjust the entry and lower segment cost and increase the KI max to 3.

They also added 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30.

29 is the Halloween theme from last year, and 30 is Bumba. That leaves 25, 26, 27, 28 along with these two new ones, 31 and 32. That is six new songs. Are you talking about hearing the songs in the missions before the three missions they just added this month? I was specifically talking about September 2021's three missions.

It really is miss the boat content; there is currently zero incentive (outside of mercing) for players who are done to go back and do gaol fights for other people who haven't finished ranking their stuff.

I can't think of much content that doesn't have something to return to once one completes the "main objectives". Making the guess you'll need 50k RP to make new weapons at some point.

I just meant the September update. I just recall thinking "Ooh a new song!" x3 while doing them, but I'm probably wrong. :)

I was gonna upload them all but then I got lazy. There was a guy who uploaded all the XI songs to his youtube channel, but then he went to XIV and never touched XI again, same old story. Don't think anyone else adds XI music
