The only fault I could see with X in terms of environment is two things, first, Spira is incredibly linear, it's essentially a South to North Pilgrimage. Also, most areas are quite badly transitioned. You have the Moonflow and Guadosalam, which is full of woodland, then the desolate thunder plains, followed by the icy Macalania, then out towards the temperate Calm Lands.
I agree with this. Though the world is beautiful and has an interesting concept, I would appreciate it much more if it were as large and felt as alive as XII's Ivalice. This seems more like a scenery in a theater rather than a real world. It's beautiful, but it still seems artificial.
