    • RE: Travelling is "complicated" to be mild

      @PedroBillyMattos First of all, I like the idea of some sort of run toggle. Not pathing or anything, but maybe following your cursor. And mounts are coming to the game.

      I think the current travelling times are fine. If we compare it to a game like Vanilla WoW. Its continents were far larger and took far longer to travel. If you started in Undercity (far top of the map), you wouldn't be able to get to Stranglethorn Vale (far bottom of the map) in 10 minutes. And it would be unreasonable to expect that. Even using flight paths, you couldn't do it.

      "So don't tell me to Curb my expectations or to set "PROPER expectations" as if your expectation is the "proper" one and mine is improper or whatever."

      Except my expectations are built around what the game is, whereas your expectations are built around what you want the game to be. This is a huge, open world game (and this is only one section of the game). Not a CoD map.

      Let's think about this problem honestly. The only objective measurements I can get from your original post is that 10 minutes is a sweet spot for you to get from point A to point B. Is this your ideal number? If you want to look for foxes/deer/rabbits, it should take 10 mins? From where ever you are? If you want to kill goblins, it should take you 10 minutes from where ever you are? If you want to get to the top of a mountain peak, it should take you 10 minutes from where ever you are? How much time are you willing to invest to get from any conceivable point in the game to another? 10 minutes? This question is one you need to ask yourself. If that answer is "yes, 10 minutes," then, fine. I would fundamentally disagree that this game should be that small. If that answer is "no, depending where you are and where you're going, it should take longer than that," then that is what I mean about setting expectations. We would fundamentally agree on this point.

      I'll ask a few questions and give my answers to them in italics. I hope to get your honest feedback, too.

      If point A and B are the literal furthest points apart from the current map, how long should it take to traverse? I think 2-3 hours is a good amount of time for this with the current map. This creates a lot of opportunities to explore and find things. Having a content rich continent is important here.

      Should this time remain constant when more content is added? Would we need to be able to travel faster when there is more land? I think there could be some cases of instant teleportation, for example, between planets? And maybe a form of fast travel between specific points, like ships/trains/etc. to link hubs together. Outside of that, I think travel can stay the same. Especially when mounts will be in.

      I don't think it's a problem. The world is still pretty empty, content is still being developed. There aren't many games that allow you to warp around to any other place of the game in under 10 minutes. Curb your expectations. From tutorial to "end game" zone should take some time. And there should be some distance between far places. We don't need to be able to "teleport" everywhere. Let people explore the world.

      More complete content will fill in these gaps. And setting proper expectations.
