Picture this. You walk up to a node and touch it, the Echo triggers, sending you flashing back many years ago. You see a Lalafell and Elezen peacefully fishing side-by-side. The Lalafell gets a tug on his line, and starts pulling up. After struggling for a moment, he pulls up a large carp, smiling wide. The Elezen looks at him with a smirk. He feels a tug on his line, and pulls it up quick, eager to surpass his friend and rival's catch, but is dismayed to find a guppy. The Lalafell's laughter is cut short when the animals go quiet, and the earth starts shaking from heavy machinery. Trees are pushed aside as Garlean Magitek stomps into the clearing, spewing smoke and causing the Lalafell and Elezen to drop their poles and run in fear. But it's too late - as they stumble backwards, the Magitek's laser focuses in on them, right before it fires, the screen goes black.

You have arrived in Murmur Rills.
Find Enoa's missing fishing pole, so that his wife may finally rest, knowing her husband is gone.

(Complete objective)

You have obtained 1,000 SP."

THIS is what I would like to see when entering camps, towns, and settlements.
It would just add flavor and life and more content alongside a nice intro
All of the CS's don't need to be movie quality, but i'd say for zones they should be more
detailed and maybe even voice acted. And not all intro's necessarily mean a quest.
Possibly just some intros are just that - a CS intro.

Would have to be careful to not over do it though.
Do it for each zone, small city, and maybe a few camps/settlements.
When you enter a zone and walk within towns/settlements the Echo starts as you walk into the area.
And alongside SP, maybe get the said piece of equipment/item that the quest is asking for if there was quest. If there was a quest to begin with that is.

I'm more in favor of short CS's for zones/small towns to introduce it and have the name
go across the screen like KH.

like this, but much shorter.

beginning of that clip would be perfect for going to Ala Mihgo or what not.
something of that nature.

I mean they even have an example of it already in the game.

Def all credit to quantumsaint!
