    Zone types you want to see in the future.

    Yes, yes, we are only at patch 4.1 with most of Stormblood way ahead of us. But it is never too early to talk about what you want to see in the future. Besides chances are the zones for 5.0 are already in the work, or will soon be.


    Soooo the question:
    What kind of zones you would like to see? We had deserts, forests, steppes, floating islands, floating sci-fi islands, large steppes, and rice field filled valleys. And we had the Sylphlands, AKA and LSD trip. We also took a trip underwater with half of the Ruby Sea.

    So what landscape would you like to explore in the future?

    One I wouldn't mind seeing is a city. Not like Ishgard or Kugane, but an open world zone. A mostly hostile urbanized setting.

    Wish number two would be a swamp. A gloomy, mist filled dangerous, monster infensted, horrorfilm kind of swamp.

    Maybe the inside of a giant creature. We had a battle on Bahamut's hand. How about going inside something giant for a change. Like the Wandering isles in WoW except inside, not on the outer shell (this could also be a dungeon).

    I'd personally, like a dense rain forest area similar to brayflox long stop and certain parts of hull breaker isle, but instead of an instanced area a whole zone . I may be alone on that though.

    Like around the ninja hideout in La Noscea south of Wineport?

    Indoor areas that aren't locked behind instances.

    It's be awesome to actually go mining in
    The nanawa mines for example.

    And general indoors environments like xi had with defaults tower. Castle oz. And vahzl. Gusgen mines palborough mines. Monastic cavern. Sea serpents grotto.

    Even 1.0 had areas like this with nanawa copperbel and the mum tuy cellers.

    1) Some sort of distorted reality map, like the the Netherstorm map in WoW (YES I KNOW AND NO, I don't want to turn this game into WoW -.-). Or any map located in the Outland, actually.

    2) It'd be nice to have a full map inside a mountain or under the earth, with caves systems interconnected, buried temples, inner lakes, access to a magma core with a system of bridges.

    3) Same concept than 2 but underwater.

    4) A deep pure jungle.

    Gridania, I want to know what they're really hiding from me. Even after all I've done for the realm the gatekeeper still gives me the same bs excuse as to why I can't go venture forth into the rest of the city.

    1. Still quite a ways away but at some point with Garlean* / fill in the blank ancient (tech) place - a Zanarkand (FFX) / Midgar (FFVII) could be really interesting place to be (high tech city, slums would be fine but I also want to see the "good side"/where things are well kept). A bit more fantasy version too like Jueno (FFIX), Altissia (FFXV), or Bevelle (FFX).
    2. A highly water / waterfall influenced area (not underwater), like Altissia, I guess sort of Zanarkand, but you know there are a lot of different approaches to that even Mor Dhona long ago.
    3. Silly fantasy chocobo paradise (FFIX, silly like super cute but sort of takes itself seriously not like "I'm a joke and derp look at all this stuff I didn't even try to make a theme with").
    4. Ridiculously vertical yet homely place - perhaps a city in the trees (far up), like Clerya in FFIX or Jueno.
    5. Super fantasy zones, like the Farplane in FFX or Emptiness (FFXI).
    6. Seemingly magical ancient and or abandoned floating civilizations, like Castle In The Sky (Ghibli), Zeal (Chrono Trigger) and Sky (FFXI)
    7. Non-stop visual candy nonsense tease like FFIX Memoria. Oh, bring a similar song too :P. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJBUZqDPbao

    *They've done a lot of wrong but they're also just people, like our team (who has also done a lot of wrong, just less powerful - give people a big stick and watch as they use it, doubt our team is anymore special). So imo it's possible to have peace (way in the future), even if specific people have to be removed the entire population/tech doesn't and they're VERY technologically advanced (they're dropping "quick set-up military roads", imagine what they do to their cities they've had for ages).

    I would love to see more snow themed maps, it's my favorite. I really enjoy snow and big stone/metal buildings, since in Heavensward we pretty much just get Ishgard and Coerthas Western, would love to see that again but bigger.

    I was personally a big fan of the Mines of Moria expansion in LOTRO (I think I spent 2 real life months without ever bringing my character outside)...

    So I would love to have some giant underground cavernous zones to spend some time in (think the later half of Rabanastre but where you can explore the whole thing).
