Bring Back The World Map
is it just me that misses the world map/overworld that you could walk around on and explore and fly airships and sail boats on? i miss it because it made the game more challenging when you had to find places that were kinda hidden, and made the game less of a straight line. also it always had the best places to level up. thoughts?

I remember a thread exactly like this, but this could be DejaVu.
I'm for world maps because they give you a sense of direction and especially freedom, instead of like in X where you had to go along with what the plot dictated you had to do.

Im sure that I made it too...
Meh,
i think that the world map should make its glorious return to our screens, as with it we'll get controllable transport, which is where X and XII fail, they have none.

I miss the world maps because I could go to other parts of the world on an airship and not have to walk across all of God\'s creation to get there. The only thing good about not having was in X when you could run around a save point to level up and use the save point to heal. But of course on a world map I would just run in front of a town and then go in and use the inn if I needed it.

Annoying? Nope. It gave you the freedom of where you wanted to go and actually flying the airship to that location. The world map was always the best place to level up. FFXII is slightly improved the map situation than FFX as in that it was simply A to B where as I like to go from maybe A to like H, I, J etc rather having to go through B. FFX just felt too inclosed. I think no world map is one of the bad changes in the FF series.

The world map was one of the best aspects of the FF series. Like everyone has said, it gives you that freedom to do whatever you want and go wherever you want.
FFX was still a great game, but it did feel a bit linear because you had to follow a certain path.
