Was waiting for a thread like this to come up. I'm an open world person. I love to do open world stuffs, not just the usual gathering or mining or fishing or fates. TBH I personally feel the open world in FFXIV too bland. Look at all the maps, empty. But at this point to implement something that large of a scale isn't going to happen. To revamp from AAR up to the current xpac like what someone mentioned gonna take an xpac worth of time. But it is my greatest wish that they would do something about this in the future xpacs to make world maps more interesting rather than just fating here and there.

Peace
