I really like Sol.
Playing as a character in Sol is definitely not my favourite, but its qualities are fascinating. One of my favourite things about these older games was how much room there was for a player's imagination. What we see is what we get, but by talking to NPCs, you can gather clues to deduce what the nature of a place or society is really like.
Sol is rich with this. So many people here are greedy, bitter, untrustworthy, selfish, disloyal; and a lot of these characteristics are fueled by pain, addiction, and sense of misplacement. Or not! It's an interesting contrast to the many smaller towns you pass by before Karisto Kingdom. Not everyone shares those traits, of course, but the friendlier and more considerate people stand out in a way that makes you wonder where they really might be from.
I love this game.
