I've wondered for a while now if we'll ever get bigger cities or cities with more open spaces. More lifelike cities, so to speak.

The current ones we have aren't really that big, and not just that, but they don't really look that much like a habitable place. I mean, I've always wondered ever since I first saw them in the 1.0 beta: where would people live in this place? Limsa doesn't seem to have any homes or places that look like they could hose a town's population, Ul'dah is basically a bunch of walls, and Gridania is a bunch of corridors, stores, stalls and that sort of stuff. The only buildings there are guilds. Ishgard also doesn't look to be a pretty open space either; it's just a huge castle.

So just a while ago, this popped into my recommended videos in youtube for some reason, and it reminded me of all this. Yeah, I know, I know, it's XI, but please, don't stone me. Skip around to see some of the town since they just stop around to talk for a long while and then move on to the next place.

Now that town in that video does look like a habitable town. It looks big, nice and open, and then it reminded me how most cities in XI actually did look like that as well. Well, actually this new one looks better, and Jeuno and Al Zahbi were also a bunch of walls, but... you get what I mean, right?

SO, all this got me wondering again. Will we ever get bigger, more open and lifelike towns/cities in XIV? Like, ones that don't really get you thinking "where the hell does all this people live anyway?"? That is one thing I'd love to see later on.

What do you guys think?
