I have no idea how I knew, but somehow I KNEW that they'd change the summoning bell in this town to match the surroundings. And I was not disappointed when I saw it finally.
@thehermit8618 It also has TEA vendor and Faux Hollows and its also also one of the three endgame hubs that allow mounts so lots of people like to hang out/AFK there.
Its funny cause I know this isnt Soken. Its his other guy that made the raid songs for Eden. He gave him full control over a futuristic town and he understood the assignment. Our music team ballin
@@teckard 100% agree, I have absolutely NO idea why square insists on this approach, it's like that every expansion. 2nd city where you get gear etc. NEVER had a market board. Rhalgr? Eulmore? So many cool cities but no MB. It's a shame here especially because it would make this hub literally perfect.
@@098Xzibit Because it gives people a reason to occupy both cities instead of the populace primarily leaving one vacant when they finish MSQ. That way, the beginning town is still bustling with people even for new players that get here towards the end of the 7.x patches. People will logically always flow through the second city always because the tomestone and scrip vendors are there, but the Market Board being in the first city ensures that people will be around it well into the postgame. Personally, I'd prefer if inns were in both cities since having inns doesn't really disrupt this flow of people traffic like Market Boards and currency vendors do.
@@lampaddict7885 That's, ultimately, on the people who are comparing it with those two for doing so. The team said not to expect it to be ShB/EW, lots of us in the community said not to expect that. Shit I was telling people as soon as EW finished that the next expansion was likely going to be StB 2.0 since after all the plot is done we needed another worldbuilding expansion. No one reasonable was expecting this to be a new ShB or EW, its hard to write a sequel after all. And, for my part, this expansion became my second fave after EW for taking it as is.
@@greywitchleila Dawntrail is hated because its bad. Wuk Lmao is insufferable and is an example of a Black Hole Sue, the story drags on and on and on and all the cultures in the game are the most scrubbed clean and smooth thing ever with no real nuance or interest and their histories are equally boring.

After going through Living Memory, I can say that Solution Nine is just, such an amazing place. While Living Memory is where those long gone would live in an eternal good memory, Solution Nine is a real place, with real people, eating real food, playing real games, drinking with friends, buying furniture for their homes, taking their bikes and cars for a spin along Electrope highways, and after all is said and done, a place where people can live and die happy to have lived a good life, especially after the Regulators become less common, and death becomes a normal and accepted part of life again, it makes Solution Nine look more alive and vibrant than Living Memory ever was, because it's not just a thin sheen of colour and nostalgia over a cold steel shell, it's a living, breathing, changing city, and that's always gonna be better than some fairytale wonderland.
For sure. I’m guessing that’s why you had the food scene parallels in both and showing you had to fake it in Living Memory. I look forward to the post expansion content to see how life changes in Solution Nine and maybe see a few random NPCs from the area in the other towns.
I'm sure it'll be a hard transition though. You see how scared an anxious most Alexandrians get without their Regulators. I imagine it won't be easy to give that aspect of their life up.
@@Reaper1722 I'm sure a bunch of the post-story content will be focused around helping the alexandrians integrate into the rest of the societies around them, including helping them destigmatize death. and probably some of the Arcadion raids will be focused around it as well, seeing as the whole thing is to help the Alexandrians feel better and look forward to a new future.
The scale of S9 is kinda crazy. We are limited to a certain scaled down version for gameplay purposes, but just looking at the background and the highways and stuff, you can see that theres more skyscrapers. Whether its office buildings or residential, you can tell S9 is probably the most populated city to exist in FF14. The sheer scale of it is really cool especially when you compare it to like Limsa which looks like it has the population of several hundred at most
I can feel the 24/7 air conditioning of Sol9 through this music, complete with hypoallergenic filters and a tightly regulated humidity for optimal comfort.
About a week after early access I was able to unlock Solution Nine area. Fell in love with the theme. To the point when I had a flight the next day to Singapore, I kept listening to this theme when I arrived.
God I love this type of fantasy. Futuristic looking utopia's, I'm glad XIV has been going in this direction. Makes me so curious as to what the other shards are like now that we know what this one is capable of.
I cried entering this place. Cried twice, actually. Myself and the whole community waited a full year to see Solution Nine, and by god is it a magical area. Can’t wait to spend the next two years gearing and leveling here. Not to mention The Arcadion.
@@ltmuffler3482 I was a huge fan of old PSO, and Universe especially, so Solution 9 and its surroundings left me feeling some pretty wonderful nostalgia.
I can understand why they dont do S9 housing, vibe clashes hard with current outside features so they have to make external feature specific stuff for s9...but at least apartments soon, please!
@@Deep40000 The appartments is almost confirmed. They didn't need to create a S9 "residential district" with an NPC in the lobby's counter to greet you. Yeah, it's planeed and I am saving every single gil to get an appartment.
I really like the vibe of this track. Really fits the futuristic utopia that solution 9 strives to be. That said, i hope they still play the S9 trailer music somewhere. Maybe that will be the Arcadian lobby music?
@@justcallmescott6421 The motifs are from "Dawntrail" and "Smile," but atmospherically in the backing tracks it does reference "'Neath Dark Waters" in the instrumentation and atmosphere it strives for. It's a poppy, catchy lobby tune, but behind it all there is an indescribable somberness that picks away at your brain the more you listen to it.
Oh for sure. This expansion has great music (when they aren't constantly reusing old tracks), and the locations are gorgeous. 10/10. I just think the msq is worse than ARR XD
I liked the Story. It doesn't reach the Highs of ShB or EW but those are some of the best in MMO Gaming to begin with so I say it's the Silver to their Platinum.
This song is stuck in my head so much since I'm here all the time for tome spending on the gear. I find myself humming or whistling it all the time when I'm out lol
I really feel like that they'll have an instanced apartment district. Like make it where it already comes with appliances but we can add little things too it.
to me this feels like the FFXIV anthem now. its a banger but also has the classic FF feel to it. perfect beat. never imagined tracks like this would ever be in this game and the fact that it is now is just really Awesome!
My WoL Lore has her clan being in tune with lightning as an element to an extreme measure, to a point of Ramuh recognizing her as one of her clan, and giving her a small lightning blessing ((the Ramuh glowing weapons)) after his trial. Suffice to say, this? As soon as Nami walked in here, to a town where lightning can do literally everything, her immediate reaction was more or less "...This is where I'm retiring once my adventuring days are done."
Good boy Salmon! You found a new home, how’s your journey? Rough? You lost any friends along the way? That’s okay you’re master are proud you till today. You lived a long life!
This is easily one of the biggest and grandest city in the game so far. The view when you get inside and see these massive skyscrapers all around you is just stunning. Does it fit into the world? Is the clean sci-fi-aesthethic fitting for the game? I could not say but it does nothing to not making your mouth drop.
@@NekkoBlue Personally I don't mind Solution 9. I think it's a great place and will be amazing for a variety of screenshots. However, I have read a lot of comments from people who very much disliked it and I can fully understand why. There's a pretty hefty difference between the weird arcane-magitech of the Allagans and the more classic science-fiction-style of Solution 9. We don't know about the day to day life in the Allagan Empire, but there is an aesthetic clash. The Allagans had always this weird barely comprehensible tech, in Solution 9 you find laptops, holographic TVs and people running around with their coffee cups and let's not forget the drone bikes or the straight up nightclub. Hell you can find a guy doing a job application test in the government sector. As I said I don't mind it. In fact give me all the clothes the NPCs are wearing. Give me the option for their replicator-thing on their head. Give me the nightclub vibes. But, I can fully see why some people do not like Solution 9. Which is why I phrased the comment as I did: Some might not like it, but there's no denying that Solution 9 is easily the grandest city in the game so far.
I was unsure about it when they first announced it, but it actually ended up working very well, lore-wise. No spoilers but I think they handled it elegantly.
"is the clean sci-fi-aesthetic fitting" .... FF has always been about the intersection between technology and magic. either you have a fantasy world unearthing ancient magitek technology, or you have a modern world using and manufacturing magic. play more final fantasy.
I love how much of a vibe this is. Reminds me of the chill Persona 3 & 5 tunes. REALLY curious to see how crazy the Arcadion and raid themes are gonna be.
When i first heard this i felt like i was upruptly dragged back to 2009 as a young teen up during 2am playing LaTale ... This is just that type of music.... wow man..
thought i'd feel that way but im already used to it and don't mind it, i actually feel like it fits and looks the part more than the pictomancer abilities /shrug
Welcome to Phantasy Star Universe/Online, shame you can't take the limsa out of people would be so sick to have this and new city be the main hubs but alas they both lack some NPCs and Merchants
I think they messed up not putting a marker board here. It would've given people wayyyyyy more reason to hang out here. Literally one of the only important things missing
CBU 3 dropping the hottest new single track yoshi take the mic ❤ also to add if you haven’t explored the apartments you probably should I’m pretty sure we’re getting housing here
"starless skyline" can be purchased from the gemstone trader, beryl, in solution nine with 450 bicolor gemstones. (note that beryl will only appear if you have reached the max shared fate rank in all of the dawntrail zones!) enjoy your lofi beats to craft and / or idle to. ♫
The part from from like 11 seconds to 20ish sounds like another song i know.. i cant place it. But i know the end 2 notes of the melody are tell me, i just cant place it
I am a big sucker for sci-fi mixes in fantasy games. This stuff reminds me of Star Ocean games and Phantasy Star games and it’s my favorite two things to mix; fantasy and sci-fi I love this area and never wanna leave it

This is my favorite endgame hub. I will cherish every moment this place is relevant for the next 2.5 years.
could be longer....
None of the Endgame hubs are dead in my server, obviously Solution Nine and Idyllshire are the most visited by still see plenty of people in the rest.
Give it something like wondrous tails and i guarantee you it will never be irrelevant. WT is the reason Idyllshire is still such a popular spot

I wasn't disappointed in it. Just felt lost with it actually.
this theme is called - Starless Skyline-
1:37 motif of Close in the Distance :>
Every time I hear that part I get the UT theme stuck in my head. This whole track kinda reminds me of the music from the Omicron tribal quest area

This town has that Phantasy Star Online 2 future tech town vibe and its so awesome and I'm here for it.
It'd be kinda funny if they added housing here, but it was just the apartments, no wards
This place is probably my favourite in terms of scenery. I’d love to live there.

@@soulholdersI mean technically Rad-ah-Han is a secondary hub area so this might be the next one
@@soulholdersAlso you don't reach this zone until level 97 whereas Limsa can be accessed by anyone after level 15
I think they messed up not putting a marker board here. It would've given people wayyyyyy more reason to hang out here. Literally one of the only important things missing
I wish Solution 9 can be the new limsa
On GIlgamesh, it's always filled.
I'm totally in love with this lofi hiphop beats vibe, just changed my home point to solution nine lol
This song is a BOP
The music for the next expansion should be entirely hip-hop, rap, trap, drill and reggaeton. Need that shi in my veins
Ragnarok Online called, it wanted its lost music back.
This definitely has 'cyber Prontera' vibes and I love it!
Don’t threaten me with a great time. iRO and private servers till I die.
I felt the same when I heard the OST the first time! Fits right into Ragnarok Online.
Yup I also found the restored firmament music to have an RO vibe. Wouldn't surprise me if they were the same composer
Limsa will still be the most populated hub but this’ll probably be close
CBU 3 dropping the hottest new single track yoshi take the mic ❤ also to add if you haven’t explored the apartments you probably should I’m pretty sure we’re getting housing here
Neon and chill retro, this is the solution I expected
What??
And the theme that sounds in the trailer of solution nine?
I think we can expect that to show up in the Arcadion.
it's the dungeon theme
"starless skyline" can be purchased from the gemstone trader, beryl, in solution nine with 450 bicolor gemstones. (note that beryl will only appear if you have reached the max shared fate rank in all of the dawntrail zones!)
enjoy your lofi beats to craft and / or idle to. ♫
feels like walking through a SecondLife Mall.
Why is this theme sooo damn good??!! :_)
The beat sounds like somebody digging rhythmically with a shovel.
Uvi is the goat
Carrying the torch Mekkah dee would be proud
Futuristic Elysion vibes here. Needs some cyber grebuloffs right quick.
Not going to lie i was a but nervous whem i first saw this place shown in the live letters but with the context of the story i really love the place.
I don’t know why there isn’t an extended version of this on UA-cam yet.
VA 11 HALL AAAAA
The part from from like 11 seconds to 20ish sounds like another song i know.. i cant place it. But i know the end 2 notes of the melody are tell me, i just cant place it
Finally, the kids who played ff7 grew up and made their own version of that beautiful flawed masterpiece.
this slaps so hard
Perfect song to craft to
This theme and even the city itself reminds of Xenosaga Episode 2 cities & city theme.
Weird how there’s a 10 hour video of the new raid song but no 10 hour solution 9
"Final Phantasy Star Online" right here lol. Love it! ☺️
since when is the "SBC Glocken" from gungale in final fantasy XD..... i love it.
Welcome to uhh… Night City
This is my favourite place in the game. My FC house can burn for all I care now.
I am a big sucker for sci-fi mixes in fantasy games. This stuff reminds me of Star Ocean games and Phantasy Star games and it’s my favorite two things to mix; fantasy and sci-fi I love this area and never wanna leave it
Academia from XIII-2 but purple
Gotta love close in the distance medley throw in there
Loving all these cities, it just feels so unfortunate that they are always so empty
On GIlgamesh, Solution 9 is always packed.
right?? i really want people to be all around the world ingame
they done gave sokken fl studio
