Does instant transportation effect game immersion?

[DNO]

You still didn't clap your hands and turn up wherever you wanted either. Fast travel in XI always had some sort of downside wether it being the quest to get the teleport spell or the trip to get your outpost/craig crystals. Or the Besieged/Campaign you needed to gain points to use to warp all willy nilly.

I think XI did it right it allowed alot of transportation options but also had easy to obtain but limited supply of said warps.

Yea your on to something... hmmm mab they can add something that you can only use a limited amount of time and... hmmm mab it recharges 1 point every 4 hours... and hmmmmmm mab you can only hold like 100 at one time... hmmm mab we can call it Anima????

Yea your on to something...

I guess this is what happens when someone assumes they know what your talking about without actually knowing...that or it's your brain on drugs.

If you weren't paying attention my main qualm with anima is that you don't even need to earn the right to teleport to certain areas...you just do it. Hell I bet a good majority of people think at least walking to the camp once should be more than enough of a fair trade to be able to warp to it.

If waiting 4 hours is not earning it then my brain is on drugs. SE limits how much tele we can use by time. In FF11 we were limtied by gil we needed to pay or points we needed to get. All easier to get then waiting for 4 hours.

Also i quoted a quote from you so i think my brain is perfectly fine but yours is up for debate.

Edit i just realized who i am talking to wow that is to funny. You sir are a spinner and i will not get into another debate with you. Have a nice day.

Anima is perfect the way it is.

Sorry what?

*edit*

Oh wait I see what your saying, you think it's a bad idea to have to walk to a camp once? Well then I guess thats where we are just going to have to dissagree I think walking to a camp once is a pretty fair trade.

Too speak on this, your walking into a conversation mid-way through and making assumptions out of context. If you really think I'm a great "Spinner" maybe I should be in politics.

You are aware that's not my only post in this thread right? Keep up with the conversation or don't be suprised when you find out your not even responding properly in the first place.

If you don't feel like responding to my posts because you "Don't get it" feel free to not respond hell you can put me on an ignore list for all I care. I'll still respond to your posts when and where I can, it's suprising how insulted you seem when someone challenges your point or lack thereof.

I have no beef with you or your arguement I'm just putting my point across. Don't be mad bro.

It would be another case if boatride we have now is fun and has something on it.

I think the main point is that I would rather them focus on making the boatride fun and have something on it, before adding the option to skip it.

I'd rather they add airships when there is actually content to do on them, instead of adding them now for no good reason and then plopping the content in afterwards. I want a world where skipping the ride is something you might want to reconsider.

Lack there of? dude read the thread more people agree with me then you. Your assuming all content will be easy because of a Airship ride... thats whats stupid here not anything esle.

You do know creating a new instances for the airship that simulates the world takes time? There will be more angry people that are still playing out there if they decide to delay the airship further than just immersion-loving-players? and why is there a difference if they decide to put skipping later or now? if the content that is going to be implemented isnt worth it, people will skip anyway even if skipping option is to be implemented later on.

much easier, it was seconds to get a tele for the most of 5years playing the game b4 it got hard for ports, on top that boats yes, but even the boat to say whatever that place is called in cop to get to enerjah? well it was faster to run threw imp camps to the city then it was to take the boat. if you took the boat it was cause u had lot of time to waist and u wanted a break an go afk for a bit.

also we had op warps, we had port right to sky from crystals after few years (ffxi big thing was making it slowly easier, aka boats always dying out either way) but with content on the boats they will die out around the right time they should die out right? when people done with that content and they stop adding more to it no? until then we still will have full boat rides like ffxi ...at the start, as much as there would of been even with instant. if there is content on it.

longest 2 runs are run to sea serpent grotto and run to boyda i think and that took like what 5mins each? 10mins if you get lost in jungle lol... or more. i had it down though after awhile but can't say i didn't spend lots of time there.

and yes 1 time runs to every where is very fair, and lets hope the devs and mods are listening to all this. that will add alot of gameplay to the game, though seems pretty much ruined for us as old players ...but we got new zones and maps to look forward to seeing.
