Every zone in Uladh and Belvast has a BGM

but Iria has nothing?

is there any chance Nexon could get this corrected by Devcat ?

like c'mon why is it mute?

    It's supposed to reflect its unsettled wild frontier, hence why it has only three towns and a few encampments.

    Also, considering artifact hunting, a BGM would get in the way of trying to hear the BOOP-BOOP-BOOP. Especially when it's a doot...doot-doot...

    but the sticks also glow as you get closer... they could always increase the glow or make a louder sound dulling the music

    or only mute the bgm if you have the rods equipped?

    maybe music for the main town areas only would be nice like Filia, Vales, Core Village, and Qilla however I enjoy the the silence. no music makes Iria and good place to do bard practice instead of waiting around 10 minutes for the game music to end in other areas. however the Shyllien Nature Reserve area does have game music ^^

    They don't glow all that brightly though, and some of us don't run toward the camera :D

    I kinda like the quiet experience, myself. Makes for a nice contrast to the constant noise elsewhere in the game. Would like better ambient noises, however.

    Honestly, the silence makes sense. I wouldn't say no to some town music though.

    I just wish the jungles in the Courcle region would take a page out of Rano's book.

    I hate the sounds of the jungle, because they get so loud and don't count as BGM, so you'd have to mute all sound effects to turn them off.

    I would appreciate more nature sounds like the wind and the sound of the grass moving or the roaring gusts of wind of vales or the soothing movement of sand in fillia!

    I did thought about that too, but after i turned off BGM forever i stopped wondering if there's any BGM playing in this area or not.

    Not all of them. I really got fed up by Tir Chonaill and Dunbarton BGM's and area around them too.

    Yeah, I always wondered why Vales, Filia, Qilla and Cor didn't have some sort of theme music. Would love that they'd add some.

    I'm kinda depressed that there is still no BGM in Iria too.
    Well, more irritated than anything.

    Speak for yourself.

    I personally find most of the music done by hanstone to be grating to the ears. Unfortunately for me, I tend to hang out in a lot of areas that plays music done by said composer.
