With airships and chocobos take away teleporting!

[Jobeto-Rin]

After all.. these areas are all pretty much starter areas, leave them easy.. but the new addon areas.. comon.. part of the danger of the game is traveling through some scary shit!

Dude you have no idea how much I concur with that line.

That sense of danger is exhilirating to me.

I would want to see the anima removed completely and or used only at a very small number of areas
...but there are multiple play styles.

wait.....where did i hear that from? lol

Well, this may be a bit of a long shot because I doubt they will be adding more continents for awhile, but;

Keep the teleporting system the way it is now, but keep it limited to Eorzea. And perhaps maybe with the little areas that are still unreleased in Eorzea(because that map indicates that we can't explore it all yet) make up some reason that the Aetheryte magic cannot reach there and limit that too. Just a thought I've had more than once. I think it could work.
Perhaps make new areas a tad bit smaller too.

Why cant something like the Out Posting quests be added in? Listen, im not about not making things easier, i just dont want it all handed over without any work involved.

Give us the option to make it easier for ourselves without simply handing that option over on a silver platter.

Which part of "discovering" the aetheryte in order to be able to teleport to it does not have any work involved?

Which part of we only get 6 anima per day to use on "discovered" aetherytes is being "handed" everything?

[Sav]

I'm a huge fan of the "only able to teleport while at an aetheryte" idea. That makes them seem like even more of a hub then.

[Morticous]

discovering an aetheryte isnt exactly a colossal task... 100 ainma straight off the bat and actually accruing 6 anima per day is being handed to me.... No work involved in auto accrual. and FYI Im also against gaining back MP/HP by just standing and doing nothing or running around.. healing from FFXI was just fine with me.. there is hardly any reason anymore to use any spells like MP siphon... I guess im ok with health/mp regen... but jeese.. slow it WAY down.... It regens back stupid fast. but i guess this would also cut into your precious hour time to play.

but i guess this would also cut into your precious hour time to play.

Nope, just the "getting there so I can play" does.

Kinda like, if you wanted to throw your kid a birthday party but only had 3 hours to do so.

You would not want to "travel" for 2.5 hours and the rest be the birthday party, would you?

I can imagine your kid wouldn't either.

So much could be implemented that would add content to the game if SE did it right...
Like certain quests that you had to complete at every single aetheryte camp, and when you completed it then you could use that camp as a teleportable area. It would add a challenge and it felt like it was worth it then when you were able to teleport there. It's really up to SE and what they plan on doing

but i agree with your logic Morticous, I want something to work for. I don't want anything for free

Really dude.. I don't want to spend time buying grocierys.. working.. planning shit except what I'm going to watch on tv and eat for dinner.. but I play games for fun and all of this is a part of the challenge... ifyour spending 2.5 hours running you have bigger issues.

I already said I'm playing for about an hour or two about 2 times a week, maybe three times if I'm lucky.

And no, I do not want to "travel" in order to be able to play the game for the MAJORITY of the gametime I have.

With ONLY 6 anima PER DAY to use AFTER I have done the WORK of unlocking an aetheryte I would like to teleport to, I am ALREADY "traveling" nearly AS MUCH as I am actually playing the game.

For example - it takes 15mins to run from Limsa to Skull Valley and then another 15mins to run back to Limsa.

That is HALF my normal gameplay session for "traveling" to and from ONE place!!!

Please, just go "travel" all you want with your gametime (you have the OPTION to do so right now!!!!) and stop begging SE to make sure players who have limited time to play will have to "travel" the majority of their gametime instead of actually playing the game.
