But still, I'm sure there are other playstation games (probably FPS) that have even better map controls than this. It must be possible. The map is so clunky right now and I agree it makes no geographical sense, so I am ALWAYS having to click through it to find where I'm supposed to go.
Maybe, but you think they would try to make it simple and more efficient BECAUSE of gamepad use. FarCry 3 comes to mind, it had a huge map but you could zoom in and out of it, right down to looking for the hidden treasure icons behind waterfalls and stuff like that.

even if Eorzea is so big that it can't fit on one map, at least give us 3-4 different BIG maps instead of 32 tiny maps. it's just ridiculous.
