One to Fifty, One Zone - Long OP

[Richard]

Pretty much agree with what most people are saying, it might actually be one of the big reason new players might be turned off, the over sized, lifeless and repetitive zones. Heck even the layout to me feels poorly thought out. FFXI did it great, everyone was a decent ways away from each other and from the major hub city and high end zones. Here its a jumbled mess making 1 city a hub because of its placement.

Will it change...for the most part no. Even if 90% of the people said it sucks, they dont have the time or clearly the manpower to change it. Would be great though, every time i play in this world it makes me miss how well FFXI was made.

Yah i wouldnt expect any response from SE.

If you read 2 pages back you'd see a direct quote from Yoshida, through the JP forums, saying they have substantial redesigns planned for the regions. I wouldn't be so pessimistic.
