Hmm, I'm kind of hoping they don't go back to the traditional world map. It's a bit outdated in my opinion, and it makes the world seem really small. I liked Final Fantasy X's solution where it was a world map that you use like a menu because it made it seem like there was tons of places in the world that existed, but you couldn't go there because there was no reason to. I think they should expand on that idea rather than going back to the world map. Unless, of course, they make everything look like Esthar.
