Bringing back areas like Revenants Toll and Idyllshire

Take everything this dude says with a pocketful of salt.

That's very rude, never even seen you before. Might wanna learn how to be civil/respect other's opinions.

Roleplaying

Fair! I just always used teleports in rp anyway. But making a journey out of it sounds fun too.

Doman Enclave was the way this was handled in Stormblood. It's a unique zone for each person, if I understand it right, so someone who walks in there the first time still sees all the rubble, and has the option to rebuild it from scratch.

Then they made the variant on the original style one with Firmament, and each person having to help rebuild the city. It was an incredible experience to see the new housing district form one patch at a time, and to participate in the rebuilding via the FATES. It's a shame that no one else will get to experience it ever again.

Encountering the "backwater" of Idyllshire in the Heavensward story with just a few goblins there is similarly strange when you get there now and see a whole city.

It was really charming, sometimes im amazed by how big it actually became...

I would only want them to do it if it can be handled like the Doman Enclave and evolve with the player's progress through the story.

As a late arrival to the game, I really feel like the finished state of those towns gives a disconnect between what people say and what the town looks like.

I'm disappointed that they went back to it for the Firmament, too.
