I think square is overpromising and probably will underdeliver.
This is the reason why i contain my excitement for this game. Square is yet to do a good FF game since Sakaguchi left. I dont expect them to miraculously be able to now. I am sure they cant go any lower than FFXIII, but i doubt they will deliver a game world that rivals with other open world RPG's.
I expect a theme park that allows us to explore a bit, but not too much. I dont expect it to be an open world at all... unless it stays in development for two more years.
