I know Tabata said that players could choose to travel by foot or by chocobo, but I wonder if you'd be able to travel through the entire game on chocoboback and have a 'classic' final fantasy playthough. =P
Most likely not as big as fans will hype it up to be, but not as small as the biggest skeptic would probably think. I hope the open world will be more inviting this time around, as I didn't find any incentive to explore the world of FFXII. A marker to let you know where the next main story advancement is would be nice. If it weren't for those I'd spend a large quantity of these open world games wandering around for hours on end.
For some reason I couldn't find an article to link you with the translation, but here's the quote. It's from the 4gamer interview.
Quote:
さらに,「開発が順調に行けば,チョコボを(体験版に)入れられるかも」
He says (speaking about the demo), "Additionally, if development goes well, we might put in a chocobo." So if there are chocobos in the demo, there definitely will be in the final game. :D
