    Saying anything is treading on dangerous territory here

    @Reika: I would like to see that kind of dungeon Reika - I like the Lifa tree but does anyone remember that tree in FFIX that was in the desert / surrounded by a desert storm? Big tree, stuff inside and out = cool lol

    Maybe mix dungeon and town together - throughout the base and core is dungeon but after you reach a certain height there is a town near the top. Supplies through use of airships.

    @Felis: certainty not all trees - but the trees on the cliffs even the types that go straight down would have roots coming out of the cliff walls.

    FFIX in general had lots and lots of overgrown plants its was quite nice. The lifa tree the source of the mist, Cleyra another big tree surrounded by a sandstorm hurricane(you had to avoid sand pits and fiddle with the sand levels on the way up), The evil forest too with its plant monsters and the rush to escape it.

    This is a small thing, there's no arguing there. But with details in place it creates that little extra quality we FF players are so fond of like Alaltus mentions here, memories are created by these details. Lifa tree is a big part of FF lore, and to give trees more life can only do good i think. There may be alot of other types of details that can be added as well, everything counts in my book. The roots was just something i immediatly noticed by some strange reason.
