You ever notice how absurdly tall all of the ceilings in this game are?

[Marisa]

Granted I'm only like 4 feet tall myself, but I've noticed that with most buildings, you could easily fit 2-3 floors in the space they use for one. This is especially ridiculous in homes inhabited by lalafells. 

 

I get that it makes camera positioning easier, but it feels like they went a little overboard...

I've noticed this, too, not just here but in a number of games. I think the most glaring example I've come across is in Neverwinter Nights:

 

 

Ogres must live here.

MEMORIES!

[Coatleque]

I believe this is done intentionally to leave room for the camera to zoom out. Granted it looks weird from a lower angle, but how often does one play like that?

Basically this, and wouldn't you rather they be too tall than too short?

[Xydane Vale]

So this tells all of us one single thing...

 

... wait for it...

 

... whoever constructed those buildings hates Lala's. *Sagenod*

 

[Aya]

Just means I need taller heels

Except that Ul'dah was basically built BY Lalas.

To a Lala, Hyur appear 20 feet tall.

[Chika Ito]

There should be a business where Lalas can hire Elezens to reach things for them, or lift them up *nods*

[Lillini]

I actually wish we could zoom out even more in buildings than we currently can, but I guess they would have to make skyscraper-tall ceilings for that to happen.

And hire Highlanders to give them rides.

[Delilah Scythewood]

Biggest example I've seen in a game is in EQ2.

 

Holy. Fuck.
