you should make it so that all areas you can't access have reasons like Riverflow is like, "I shouldn't go there it is closed due to sickness" or Jacobs house is like, "I shouldn't invade random properties for no reason" or the forest behind Jacob's house, "I shouldn't mess with the forests ecosystem for no reason" or for the bridge, "I don't think I can beat all those bandits and I have no reason to go there so I should hold off for now" or like mountain reach, "this place has a... weird aura I should avoid it for now" ext.
