How pacing/timing is worked in an RP setting has always confused me. Time paces so quickly then enjoying an RP at the Quicksand and you and mother steps outside and it's technically 3pm Eorzea time. So do you RP it still being nighttime? Or is it now 3pm and you spent the whole night/day at a bar?

I believe all that confusion would interfere with pacing as well. Gather research for instance, should take days, weeks or even months. But do 5 rl days go past and then you're good to go? 5 rl days are not much, but considering that's been like 2 months ingame, then what?

Another example is you walk to Ul'dah from Gridania. It takes you say 10 minutes. But shouldn't that of been closer to at least a few days?

So in my opinion, pacing is always going to be screwed.
