Or don't want to explore that much only live with half a map :P, aren't RPG's supposed to encorage exploration ?

For example you can't teleport to an Aetheryte crystal unless you have touched it.

Some of the outposts have buildings you can't enter , it be cool if more buildings where able to enter and explore.

I like to be able to interact to the enviroment.

Yeah, that would work. Gimme more gil sinks or this will turn into FFXI 80mil for Scorpion Harness!!!

Exploring works too! I hope they remake every area :(

Most of this is easier said than done.

Out of all of the suggesitons though, I think it would be easy for SE to get some composers to come in and compose variations to Uematsu's original scores though. (Btw, use the word variation not remix lol).

Thanalan used to be a forest that dried out, withered and died, so oasises there would not concur with the lore.
Also with the sandstorm blowing all over the area, the ground would likely to be identical all over.

The black shroud isn't to friendly in the means of exploring, but other than that, I like the areas.
For the music; yea, some variation would have been nice, can get tiresome when being in Thanalan fishing f. ex.

How about they increase running speed 33% to make these huge and empty areas more bearable, then add content for the already existing zones and new zones later on when time and development allows?

I would like a map marker to Mining and Logging points. It's very confusing sometimes especially in Gridania.
