Alright, I understand the occasional invisible wall to keep people from going into places that could glitch you through the world, or to block off zones that aren't yet available. But Squee, we really need to have a talk about your excessive use of invisible walls when there is really no good reason to have them.



Why put an invisible wall here? I can walk around on the ground behind me, and I can walk around on the plateau above me, but for some reason, this relatively gently inclined hill is inaccessible. Want to hop up here instead of going around some crazy canyon maze? Nope! Invisible walls.

For a point of comparison:



All the land that you see in this screenshot is 100% accessible. Yes, that includes the mountains off in the distance. I can run from where I took this screenshot all the way over to those mountains and I can climb them. I can run around the cliffs and crags, and behind me you can't see it, but there are more mountains and canyons and crazy stuff, and I can actually climb up and down those as well! If there's a hill or a ridge or anything in my way between point A in a zone and point B in a zone, I can go over it instead of being forced around it.

This is why your zones feel claustrophobic, Squeenix. I'm okay with them each being instanced. Fine. But for the love of all that is holy, please stop cutting us off from land that should be accessible.
