The fact that Yoshida only sees marketboard and aetherites as what makes a Hub is pretty telling.

Solution 9 could have had a highway where you can drive the motorcycle mount in some kind of racing (and yes Chocobo racing already exists so take that technical limitation).
There could have been a shop where you can dye your mount (there even is a tuning shop but unused).
Even simple things like an inn room there would have been something new.

The only place not empty there is the typica trader place and that one will also be dead as soon as the next expansion comes out.

To answer the thread.
You can make Hubs more interesting by actually not just using them as a “checklist number 49 content that’s needs to be implemented because we always did it”.
That’s the main problem.
A completely over bloated project planing from Yoshida that follows the same formula to the letter.

For all the “DT wants to try something new” it honestly did everything but that.


I know you don’t mean it like that but… shouldn’t this game want to be better than the competition?
i would have loved a virtual arcade in S9. seamed like the perfect place
