The plan for overworld movement is as follows: Portions of the city where the player has a reason to be (optional item rewards/bosses or main story content) will be segmented based on how many objectives are close to each other in the city. Things closeenough to each other will be connected as one segment you can move around in on the ground, whereas faraway segments will be accessible via flight paths. Flying to an area you haven’t cleared will lead to an air stage w/combat. Flight to an area you have cleared will be treated as fast travel.
You’ll be able to fly to and from any segment you’ve already opened up from anywhere you are in the map. Flight paths will be named by the segments they go between.
The idea here is to minimize “filler” travel between areas, and allow the player to get to the action or walk around in an area as desired.
There will be optional ground paths in most areas where there would be flight paths (available after clearing the initial flight path). These will have optional bosses with equipment rewards and extra points for raising your shield maximum.
