Shadows of Luclin was supposed to have music!

[pharmakos]

the EQ team literally JUST realized that they accidentally forgot to include the music in the entire Shadows of Luclin expansion

"Previously unreleased music for every Shadows of Luclin zone was recently unearthed from a dangerous trek through the studio archives. These musical pieces will now play when adventuring on Norrath's most cat-filled Moon."

too little too late.

[pharmakos]

its absurd to me that it took them nearly 15 years to catch this mistake, fucking lol.

at least the current EQ team can admit to the mistake. 15 years ago we would have been told it was working as intended.

[AzzarTheGod]

Fair enough. It was also a well-timed explanation for the failure of EQN development.

So, cheers!

On topic I did listen to a few tunes and was surprised at how experimental a couple of them were. Nothing like Vanguard though which had guitars involved a lil touch of black metal. Loved that game.

[Daywolf]

Cats don't comprehend music so was no need to include it at release.
I could quickly engineer a string and washer system to alleviate any detrimental side effects from lack of SoL content however :)

[JayDee]

Maybe they didn't include it because it is crap

I cringed for 4:35 of it...felt extremely out of place for EQ, more like Sim City music.

Heathens. This is Jay Barbeau's work, an EQ GOD.

[iruinedyourday]

My sig destroys that bazaar Kenny logins smooth rock

[AzzarTheGod]

Heathens. This is Jay Barbeau's work, an EQ GOD.

I enjoyed everything aside from Bazaar.

I liked Vanguard's soundtrack much better because it didn't use any synths, just classic instruments. Vanguard was that reskinned and perfected EQ everyone wanted looking back on it now. I know a few people who still have the soundtrack on rotation. The OST for Vanguard makes this Jay fella seem amateur no offense to him.

The VG Emu recently resorted to pitching to try to hire a developer clandestinely at daybreak to pull a USB stick of the VG database. I am wondering if this is feasible to pull off.. I have no idea how retired games data is stored, and if there is any special protections on it. I am leaning towards it needing a systems admin to get involved, I seriously doubt a programmer no matter how senior, or a developer no matter how senior, would have access to VG data.

Listening to the VG OST makes me hope someone does gods work and gets them the build or at least a few databases.

[LethClaypool]

Way out of place for EQ but that Bazaar tune is smooth as fuuuuug.

Dude, Jay's melodies were masterpieces, but lets not forget they were fucking MIDIs. I loved the Vanguard music as much as the next guy, but Jay's compositions performed by an orchestra (like Vanguard's) would still be better, imo.

[DoucLangur]

I never had much love for Luclin. Changed just now. Those fools!
