Sightseeing Log...

[Tetsaru]

GW2 had a thing, has a thing I should say, where you had to get to certain Vantage Points throughout a designated area to complete a special log. I forget the rewards for it now, been awhile. But some of the locations were quite tricky to get to. They were in the cities and in the field as well. It was rather interesting trying to get them all.

Will also add, when you got that point, a small icon would pop up above your head where you could select it and it would pan out a small video for like 30 seconds showing you the surrounding landscape from that particular vantage point, so that you could take it all in.

Ah, the Vistas. They were part of your 100% world map completion (probably my favorite thing about that game), which was one of the things you needed to get a legendary weapon in that game.

I'm all for adding world exploration/jumping puzzle stuff in FF14, but if they make them as difficult as some of GW2's stuff, I'm going to be raging at the lack of midair jumping control this game currently has - it really makes platforming frustrating.

Methinks Assassin's creed was one of the first adventure games to make this a fun challenge, but I could be wrong.
