What's funnier is that the part of the world map that's missing, was previously there, I had to cross those plains to get to the beach I'm landing on. For some reason the Lindblum region on Disc 1 likes to randomly glitch out like that. I need to download a new copy, because obviously for FF5 through 9, I emulate them using a PS3 controller to play.
If you want to know what I was doing, I went to the Burmecia area to get the Healing Shore Chocograph which grants the Blue Reef ability, then went back through Gizamaluke's Grotto to get two chocographs that required it. But because of the glitch, I skipped them, and went to Burmiecia to finish Disc 1. Thus I waited until Disc 2 to get them, which after the section with Princess Garnet, I'll get.
I refer to it as Minecraft because it's like how Minecraft terrain generation acts sometimes, particularly between versions.
