My general guess on Solution 9? Its a part of a civilization from the First Astral Era. Or what remains of it. And very likely the one that caused the Second Umbral Calamity (the Calamity of Lightning). This would explain why they adopted some of the Ancient Language into their tech; because they would have only experienced a single Calamity and those ruins would have been far more available. It also explains why the steam-powered based town developing under the Solution 9 plate is called "Heritage". As that civilization would be the "Heritage" of the peoples of the New World. It also explains why the Northern New World looks so utterly devastated in terms of terrain from the Glimpse in the Bridge Scene in the Cinematic. Similar to Zadnor. As well as why there is that massive Scar separating North from South on the Map.

Solution Nine is so cool.

We already have glams that'll look great in this new area! I'm not a Balmung person but I wanna dress up in cyber punk style and hang out there.

When I had a break between Heavensward and Stormblood and then later on I did Eureka and I met Krile again, I straight up thought she was a new character. I didn't even think twice I just knew this is some Eureka NPC that I guess also ended up in the story later(?) During Shadowbringers I knew she was part of our group but I was still sure we first met her in Stormblood. Then in Shadowbringers when I did NG+ with a friend I found out she was introduced in Heavensward and was pretty important in the story too. I literally forgot Krile existed.

I think the criticism of it looking cartoony is probably because there are a lot of people who just hate anything kawaii, those people probably love the more realistic looking jobs, or maybe the darker jobs like Reaper or Dark Knight. The variety of jobs is to suit people's playstyle and aesthetic, doesn't have to appeal to everyone. Better to have lots of options for different people than have limited options that attempt to please everyone but end up pleasing nobody.

@elduardo24967 ай бұрын
No no, it was because more testing and fixing was needed to get rid of some last bugs. The cancer thing was like a year before, during the development of 5.1~5.4. Soken was in the hospital for about 10 months, if I remember right from the online Fanfest, and patch 5.3 was written while he was there. That's probably why part of the 5.4 soundtrack wasn't his. Yoshi-P was upset about the delay because a lot of players had scheduled vacation to play the expansion in the original release date, and he was screwing with everyone's irl plans.

1:43 - Hahaha, my meme prediction for Green Mage turned out to be wrong, but at the same time this reveal reminded me of that saying about how you should just go with your gut/1st instinct. What I mean by this is that after the very first trailer at NA fanfest I saw people in Twitch Chat predicting Pictomancer almost immediately since the Ninja Turtles are all named after famous artists. And it looks like they were right! 😆 Viper was the only obvious one to me (not the name of course, just the dual wield concept) due to Leonardo being on the front and center of Yoshi's T-shirt with his dual Katanas that I've always loved. But then I got gaslit by the community talking about Corsair cuz of FF11 apparently (I never played FF11) so I doubted myself and didn't say a word hahaha~! 🤣 Great video Zep, keep up the good work! 😇❤

What I have to say about Solution 9, the "Ancients" weren't the only race of their stature during their time. This was when we were exploring the sunken Amaurot on the 1st in Shadowbringers. There was a small quest segment where we had to observe the discussions of the shades around the city, and one of them was a debate where they were discussing whether they should intervene in the affairs of the civilization on the other side of planet, who were already undergoing some other kind of catastrophe of sorts. They ultimately determined that if the civilization fell to their catastrophe, then so be it. This is probably that civilization. Though it looks way too intact.
