Would the remake benefit if was open world, like XV?

The alternative being what? Linear in-between zones ala FFX? Because they sure as hell aren't bringing the overworld back.
Carter Sullivan
FFXV's "open world" was actually extremely linear though
Nicholas Morgan
So will the second part allow us to re-enter midgar?
Nathaniel Allen
It's sad that overworlds were basically always seen as a waste by developers. What are they, really? Just fancy maps for you to get to the next location because actually designing proper zones was too much work. It's no surprise they eventually phased them out and just went with selectable locations or skipping you to next area.

Doubt it, but mainly for story reasons. FF7 didn't allow it either beyond the perimeter wall.
Adam Clark
XVs open world was fucking barren and boring as shit.
Chase Diaz
Maybe open areas like in Dragon Quest XI, perfect balance between open world and hallways
Connor Walker
yes
7R managed to be emptier than anything in OG ff7 or xv despite being a literal corridor

Uh-oh, looks kike someone did not dig enough in the Bone Village
