More life in the game towns

I don't know if this post fits better on the wish list or the general discussion.
I would like to see more life in the towns and cities of the game. I do not mean to see more players, I mean that the towns are more alive and you can do something else besides walking or completing quests.
For example, today I visited Lochfield, a town where there are only hundreds of trees, two houses, a banker and a town crier. In Brittany (s) there are many houses and vendors of players and NPC buildings, but there is almost no life.
It would be great to be able to harvest belladonna, garlic, or wood, hunt rabbits or deer in the forest areas of the cities that are not intended to place houses, or ore in the hilly or mountain areas. I think this would make players visit cities much more and make the game experience more enjoyable and more immersive.
And seeing and hearing more birds, crickets or frogs would also be very nice.

 

Would be nice but a lot of work. Maybe they can add a few things if they happen to be doing other work on one of the towns. They could probably add some low tier resource nodes to some of the towns. Maybe some npc's dancing or doing other emotes, or kids playing. Maybe an npc can launch some fireworks for special occasions like LB's bday, the in game July 4th, not irl July 4th, so it happens reasonably often.

Side note, adding some flying dragons over Outskirts scenes might add a little cool factor for new players to see.

 

That would be nice, but the topic remains the same. If there are NPCs dancing or launching fireworks, the only thing players can do is watch.
My idea is that the players can develop some activity in addition to looking at the NPCs and walking.
