    The remaining half of Eorzea?

    There are currently 3 towns and 5 zones in game. However the CE map clearly shows 6 towns and 10 zones. We lack the following:

    Ishgard
    Ala Mhigo
    Sharlayan
    --------------
    O'Ghomoro
    Dravania
    Gyr Abania
    Paglth'an
    Xelphatol

    So we currently only have half of Eorzea available. I'm really disappointed about this and would like to know if there are any plans when/if these areas will be implemented. I really think these areas should have been there since release.

    More like 15 other major zones, and not to mention in La Noscea alone I found 3 zones that go no where, with an NPC standing nearby. And in Thanalan I found 2-3 areas that are like caves in the ground, but are also blocked by an invisible wall. I'm sure there are several in the Black Shroud and the last 2 zones as well. {More than likely those are being reserved for dungeons and future content, but its just blah having so many areas blocked off, when there should have been something there already...}

    I agree that fixing the game system is #1 priority but I'd like to know if they are even working at this at the moment. Do they have any idea how will they make these zones or do they need to start from nothing? I don't know about you but I wouldn't like to wait another year for these zones to pop.

    I do think that all of the areas you mention are in fact dungeon entrances/placeholders.

    I am in intrigued how these "worlds" have one or two continents on them. Then BAM new continent that we never knew of.

    But, I do enjoy the anticipation of getting new lands to explore when expansions are released.

    They are most likely saving these areas for the release of an expansion.

    They said they don't plan to open them until they have the game structurally where they want it. I can agree with that, I don't want them having to go and redo the zones before they get the basic xp algorithms and mob placement figured out in the zones we already have.

    I hope they don't leave these for an expansion, but it's going to be a long, long time before the rest of Eorzea is fleshed out. Keep in mind that they still have to redo a lot of the game's core and it's a bad idea to add content before the game core is done.

    I find it sad that I paid for a game that has half the world inaccessible.

    do noted. Which is the reason why 85% of the people who purchased this game (especially the CE) are disappointed. It makes it easier for me if I look at it from a basis that FFXIV is still in it's beta phase, and we are all the testers.
