    Little towns/outposts

    The maps are huge, the world is pretty big, but the problem I have with it is, there's nothing to do in most of it. In the coerthas, for instance, you could have a half dozen outposts with npc's sitting there waiting to give you mini-quests, or be part of larger quests. You could also do group content, etc. And I don't mean the tele crystals, I mean outposts, like an extended family's farm with a dozen or so npc's that have random problems with rodents or need something run to a neighboring farm half way across the map, etc. I don't have any great desire for a million dungeons and none of the easier content you can do solo or with a party of 2-3. You could put a dozen sprinkled across each zone that would make the world feel less empty. And what about the cities like rabeo/norg/kazham? that are larger, and have a community? I'd enjoy seeing the world feel a bit more populated and not a bunch of empty space.

    There are outposts now, but as far as little towns go I'd like to see one kinda like Selbina from ff11 with its own bgm.

    Bah! I thought they were going to be in 1.20, I read the last Letter From the Producer wrong. But still, it's something to look forward to. Hopefully this isn't the only new thing coming to those Hamlets.
