Catchy Tavern music?

Post » Thu May 19, 2011 2:38 am

Does anyone else think that taverns should have a festive tune play instead of the normally peaceful (Maybe in Skyrim's case powerful) back ground music?

You do realize Death Metal is quite a popular genre in nordic countries?

I think some bards playing lutes or other stringed instruments and woodwinds would be a nice touch in a few taverns to give the game a little more definition, but it's certainly not a deal breaker for me if there isn't any.

I would prefer that the music be sedate or non existent for the most part. I would hate to hear the same stale tune every time I go into a building. Neverwinter nights had this problem. I hated going into the taverns after a while because of it. It was worse in NWN2 since they recycled the music which made the game less enjoyable for me.

Perhaps if there is a bard in the place they could play a few tunes, but it must be used sparingly.

Yes same with chapels too, I find it weird that the same music that plays in taverns also plays in chapels.

I think if they tried, Bethesda could make a Tavern a place I actually want to Sleep as a player... not just somewhere I want Rob.

I'd love to enter a tavern with a Death Metal song playing and everybody's headbanging in Skyrim.

I always liked http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9qUMOYGTH0&feature=related.
Edit:
Heres a version of Wild Rover by the Nordic metal band http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9OK85g_BP0.
They also did a song called http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBjOe7cbBq4, which I think would fit a tavern bard's song list perfectly.

Betrayal at Kondor had excellent music, and Sid Meyers Pirates! really did the background music well in the tavern scenes (admittedly they were a more important part of the game than they will be in Skyrim...)

Any celtic folk music would do the trick.

Zaria did not like the music and cast a silence spell on the bard.
working bards was an idea.

Oh how I wish they would bring that song back, even if just for at least one tavern.
