'''Basic Trope''': Questing destinations will be in the closest area(s) that were previously inaccessible.

* '''Straight''': In ''Tales of Troperia XVI'', the main quest is picked up in the FirstTown and your first destination is the next door HubCity, followed by the HiddenElfVillage a little up the road from there, then the LethalLavaLand just beyond that, etc. etc. until you've visited the entire continent.
* '''Exaggerated''': All of the places you must visit are literally along the same road only short distances apart.
* '''Downplayed''': All of your quest destinations are relatively close, but there are optional areas to visit in between.
* '''Justified''': The party is chasing after the BigBad who keeps escaping to the nearest town.

* '''Subverted''': The quest destinations appear to be close, but due to the game world's geography, you need to go around plenty of mountains, rivers, lakes, etc. which make the journey longer.

* '''Averted''': Quest destinations are realistically all over the game world.
* '''Enforced''': The game is the most simplistic in the series designed to attract new gamers and ConvenientQuesting was a design requirement to help with that.
