This all came to mind just the other day when I was walking to Limsa after some leves at Horizon. I like to save anima when I can, so I will walk a little more often.

And all this started coming to mind. There's also a severe lack of scenery! I remember when going to Al Zahbi, the one part of the trip I remembered were the two rocks that had all those seagulls on them. I heard stories about people seeing whales (Bismarck?) too, but that I never got to see. Then the trip by sea to Nashmau had it's own sights off in the distance.

What we have here in FFXIV just feels so empty I can only imagine it being fixed for any future implemented boat trips.
