PS4 FF7 Remake

I agree with Lockirby. They aren't going to say "no world map" or use the phrase "open world". It's too divisive of a topic in an RPG. If you say "World Map" the general public thinks retro. If you say "Open World" their minds instinctively go to MMO's or Skyrim. They are going to avoid suggesting any kind of feature comparisons until the game is closer to being released.

For the record though, If they could pull off a world map akin to Ni No Kuni's? That would be heaven. lol. Aaaaaaand if it's any consolation, Tenka, there's no way it's going to be a complete skyrim-esque open world; They've already discussed releasing the game in 'segments'. ....Hard to explore a massive open world if you only have access to small parts of it at a time.


More than likely, they are going to go the "Tales of..." game route, and give us semi-sandbox. MAAAAAYBE if we're lucky, we'll get a world map in-between major locations/areas.
