I love maps. I used to look at the in-game map from Final Fantasy, back when I had barely left Corneria and made it to Pravoka, and wondered what things I'd find on the other side of the world. I also thought the endgame would be on those islands in the top-left corner. Little did I know, right?

What are your favorite maps?

Back then when character development wasn't everything. My favorite probably is FF3 (NES).

I miss when RPG's were primarily about creating a world, and the player characters were just avatars through which the player could interact with this big sprawling world. The modern JRPG is just a fashion show, cosplay-bait characters navigating a linear world that might as well be a runway.

I miss when maps came with the game. It implied the devs put some sort of effort into the world they were building.
