I know that overworld comes back its still just a solution to do it the proper way (we wont see it the proper way anytime soon.)
The properway is to create whole gigantic maps where you can fly freely with your airship (maybe some areas where you cant go at the begining because its war or something. With a lot of towns sidequests that lead you to different parts of the world. And a world thats so seamless and complex that it seems you are seeing a parallel universe through someone elses eye.
I hope they can pull it off in FF vs13. I played FF despite Overworld and random fights. Not because of. Who knows maybe they surprise me. But I hope the time comes once graphical development came to an end and new technologies and tools made it cheap to develop games that we can say hello to vast FF worlds.
