I'm more interested in what he meant by:
"you arrive in Gridania and your friends tell you "there is a FATE in Ul'dah!" "

Probably the name of a new NM that may invade cities...

FATE is Full Active Time Event.

Its a battle event where everyone can join and get rewards

Campaign! The beastmen holds all strongholds and have now invaded Bastok [S]! REPEL THE INVADERS!

(Flashbacks of fighting Rockchopper and him killing everyone with Breakga)

I don't remember exactly what was stated in the whole post when he said they will abolish anima, but is there anyway he means abolish it completely as in no porting at all>?

"For example, if you arrive in Gridania and your friends tell you "there is a FATE in Ul'dah!" and you realize you have no anima left, that'd be quite disheartening. For that reason, I think it's fine to be able to leap around the world freely."

Quoted from OP.

It definitely appears warping around the world is no problem. Perhaps if they created some friend summoning or something they could solve this without making the whole world fast travel. But then we dont know if this new system is perhaps limited from the city (cant fast travel in the wilderness or something).

All we know is he said "fast traveling freely" - perhaps slightly mistranslated or he himself used loose words (or didnt include enough words.. :P). But as it stands it stands pretty scary. Hopefully he will talk more about this or we just wait till beta and cross our fingers.

He said he hated situations which there was FATE (which I never heard used before) in one area and someone couldn't go due to lack of anima... so the chance of him taking out teleport is almost 0...

Even in 1.0 teleports didn't get you everywhere, so there would still be a need for mounts.. as to the ferries and airships.. honestly only used the airship running low on anima.. Ferry I think I used all of once to go from Limsa to Ul'dah since I started @ Limsa.

It'll be up to individual people whether they choose to port everywhere or to take the time and run once and a while.. imagine people that are gathering and fishing will get to see the world even if the port everywhere crowd doesn't.

Well since, by the looks on the alpha videos, gathering looks more fun, SE might get people to explore the world with the appeal of gathering...
