i.e
Traveling from Forgotten Springs to Ul'dah takes 2-3 days.
Traveling from the dead Goobue in Eastern Thanalan to the Amalj'aa encampment in the same map takes about a day.
I was just wondering how most people tend to lean in this regard since I logged in briefly to check on my retainers and heard people in Gridania casually mention about going to Costa, which then reminded me of other times I heard people ICly referencing using airships.
Thoughts?
Depends on how people treat ingame time itself? Where one day on the game clock is about 70 minutes. Then on the other side a good RP conversation around say a dinner table could be a few hour deal... Does that mean we ate and talked for over an entire day with game time?Â
It's all iffy in the end. That being said I love walking and using my chocobo to travel since ICly that's my character's job of sorts. Then use the Aetheryte system sparingly.
