I understand that certain specific roles limit location but saying that one wouldn't leave because IRL the player wouldn't travel much....I have heartburn with that because it's too simple to just dump real life player thoughts and issues that then limit the character. I've never ridden a horse but that doesn't mean I won't jump on a chocobo in game and use that as my means of transportation.
Let's liken the three major hubs Los Angeles, New York and Chicago. Now living in Los Angeles, if one had the means and opportunity....why wouldn't they go visit Chicago? Why wouldn't they visit New York? Forget real life fears of planes, etc. You have the means to get there. Why wouldn't you go?
ICly, if one is a soldier, adventurer, whatever, why would one fail to take the opportunity to exist in one of the other hubs, even just to visit? The means are there. Ferries, chocobos and even by foot. So as a curious citizen of the world, the means are there, so why wouldn't I go see Quarrymill? Why wouldn't I go see Costa Del Sol.....a damn beach!? LOL!
I just feel like maybe some people use OOCly dislikes for area aesthetics as a reason to keep their character ICly from going to those areas. *Shrugs* Just my opinion. I'll let the thread go on as I really don't have much more to offer than that.
