Eorzea Then and Now

[DakkonBriefs]

people seem to have a problem with copy pasted maps nowadays, id rather have a larger map that is copy/paste, then a smaller one that is "unique". I want to feel like i am truly out in the dangerous wild! Right now we are always a 30 second choco ride to the next crystal tele. I miss the days when MMOs were about adventure, rather then gear grinds and endgame.

This is true. That's why each large land area had a very narrow and long "tunnel" section connecting them. And why Gridania had the long covered entryway, why limsa had the long bridge, and why Ul'dah's main gates were closed forcing you to take a side alley outside.
