Updated the first post to have a Table of Contents, for anyone who wants to go straight to the beginning of a subject we discuss!
Okay, here's another one:
Have some way to go to a previous area quickly!
Nobody wants to go through 2 hours of walking backwards through the game to push a button to unlock a secret boss you've hidden, or walk a loooong time just to talk to Professor Spaghotte Mixcoat for a quest you've set up.
Also, not every scene needs to be "Important" to the story. You could have a scene where you meet an NPC that ends up in another town later on, and they have something for you.
Up to you, as always
