...Yeah, I'd really just like to have a grounded and focused expansion that only takes place in a single major region like HW/ShB instead of jumping around the world/time/dimensions.

I like getting to revisit older regions in side content, but I feel like having the MSQ take place in such a wide variety of places was detrimental to the storytelling of SB and EW in the long run because it necessitates that things have to move more quickly then feels natural.
