    I'd still continue to afk in the flame barracks all day. You can make the overworld absolutely stunning in appearance and it would still be largely useless as a majority of the content in this game is instanced. It would be an incredible waste of funds to spruce up the overworld without also adding longstanding content to it that is not Fate grind related. So I say no to a graphical overhaul of the overworld until they fix the fundamental problem of the overworld being near meaningless in the grand scheme of this game.

    I don't necessarily agree that it would have no value. While I do agree they should and could add active content to the overworld to make it more meaningful this would be part of the adding content to the overworld.

    After all this take is more like:
    If they can't do everything they may as well do nothing and I'm going to continue to AFK in the same place I always have.

    Following this logic ultimately leads to:
    We may as well do nothing ever because nothing is ever going to be perfect for everyone.

    And ultimately these zones are in use daily by people who still have things to do in game and presumably not AFK in the flame barracks, especially since they are part of the trial version of the game, which gets more foot traffic than any other zone. So this sprucing up could lead to more purchases and subscriptions moving forward.

    Remember that the first impression is something that can only happen once and sometimes it is all the difference between whether something gets bought or not. While a priority list of things to do in game should absolutely exist, that doesn't mean things like this should never be taken into consideration even if they are less important than others.
