I rly want that updated map picture to set as my pc wallpaper, anyone knows where I can get it? Couldnt find on the press center
The analysis we’ve been waiting for! 🎉
I wonder if the solution nine thing will have a tardis like quality, like a portal into it or it looks much smaller on the outside than the inside? I kind of wonder if it was some experimental technology that has been left to it’s own devices and evolved?
Nine could be underground?
Solution Nines Soul Supply, assuming it is indeed ancient in origin, sounds very creepy. Wonder if this is linked to (assuming again) the purple crystals on the box art, the cg tailer and dungeon. Something has been found and wanting to take over bodies(?)
Anyone else underwhelmed at Painter. D:. It was just like meh. Nothing exciting. The vfx looked meh. Just not cool to me.
I've seen people float the Genome theory for the city (which would explain why we don't get to see the NPCs), maybe they rebuilt the city slowly over time for when the people are able to return to it (like the souls being in stasis until that time). Didn't other cities get mentioned in the 5.0 MSQ in Amaurot? If so maybe it's a visually distinct city made up of other Ancients that tried their own solution to the Final Days. It being underground would also make sense and then Heritage Found is the area above ground that the sundered people found and built around in their own style.
On solution 9.. tying it to the 9th calamity might be accurate. It might be the seed to rebuild the world from after what would have been the 8th calamity. A solution to accelerate the creation of the 9th calamity.
The thing with Solution 9 is that Allag and Garlemald being so technologically advanced was because of Emet Selch’s direct influence. This type of tech must’ve been normal for the Ancients for the guy in charge of monitoring the cycle of souls to be able to push whole societies into industrial revolutions.
Altima, is worth noting, was the seat of ARTISTS, including architecture. So it’s just as possible for that Ascian to be behind this.
I think solution 9 is a virtual space
The thing we need to focus on is the description for Solution 9, its towers are a facade, its a fake city. And the arcadion if you look up the definition you get arcadian (greek) that its a constituting a ideal rural paradise… i think everything here isnt real, a fake city with fake hollow people. Like the genomes from ff9, no soul, a husk and host for a soul to be put in… hence soul supplier. This could be a digital world, could be a digital terra and that large thing in the north could be a massive server powered by the levin storm in the area
yeah the pictomancer effects look so bad like a 2 year old drew them with crayons the rest of the visual effects look so well done for every other job it's going stand out like a sore thumb
Why are y'all skipping the theory on this (solution 9 and heritage found) being remnants of a civilization fallen to second calamity?
Judging by description, that calamity was caused by overexertion of natural resources that ended in clouds covering the sky and constant lightning storms f-ing up the land.
Maybe heritage is an entrance to solution 9 that was designed to save ppl from the second calamity?
I would be more excited about pictomancer if I knew they would add something unique in terms of class mechanics. My friend said in 6 pictomancer would paint other mobs and copy their attacks,but with 14 i highly doubt they will do anything close to that. I'm guessing its just another builder/spender on 2min cd like everything else.
Solution 9 honestly just looks like pso2 though, like weirdly similar. Its really jarring and im not a fan of the aesthetic but who knows. I would love if altima actually did build another moon to throw at the planet so we can have ARR 2. I'm only half joking lol.
with how many Very Serious and Edgy jobs there are in game I'm absolutely delighted to have such a whimsical job like Pictomancer, fingers crossed it's fun to play
there's so much stuff and I'm just like 'train :D'
They won't put seasonal events in Ishgard and beyond because said events are supposed to be easily accessible. Yes, there are people out there who haven't gotten to Ishgard yet and there's always more new people joining the game.
Now I wouldn't mind if the other cities got decorated for the events at least.
I could care less about Pictomancer. I think the idea for the job is cool but I'm in the group that does think the VFX look very out of place in FFXIV. Plus I'm just not the audience this class is for. I would have loved to see effects resembling the ones from the Okami series. That would have been cool.
My biggest gripe was the music. I honestly hate it personally. The transitions between the different parts of the song are so grating. And theres too many vocal effects that make it sound distorted.
1:07:50 Emet's plan wasn't to "make himself whole." It was revive everyone who died in the Final Days. Emet was unsundered, he was already whole. He wouldn't care about whatever pet project Altima was running on the source.
Solution 9 reminds me of Esthar from final fantasy viii I kinda hoped the raid series would be the lunatic Pandora.
Thanks for the Twitch coverage fam. Was a blast experiencing it with you. Looking forward to all the tin foil theories and speculation for the next 6 months!!!
2:21:10 I'm so shocked you say that! I think they look TOO much like dolls! Like I think they look "too pretty"
They look SO similar to Fem Roe in my onion! Like their silhouette is so so close, besides the tail obvi, I think they should have differentiated it more.
