I hope this game has an overworld... that was the only thing that was seriously lacking in ToSDoTNW

 

It does. Too bad they haven't released many vids of it though...only a few. It's mostly battles we've seen, hope we see some overworld/travelling...

Overworlds are overrated.

For the most part all they usually do is:

A)  Increase the time between getting from point A to point B.
B)  Feature random battles which serve to annoy the player.

You might get some exploring out of the deal but for the most part you go from point A to point B (especially early on in RPGs before you have the super vehicles that let you go everywhere).

I'm much more impressed by a game that can offer me 40 hours of gameplay with no overworld than a game that can offer me 40 hours of gameplay with one because it means I'm actually doing interesting things for most of that as opposed to spending hours watching my character go from A to B while fighting random encounters.
