We have instant teleporting, instant airship travel, sprinting, and a variety of mounts. I don't think that has to be a problem any more than it is.
Anyone remember that quiet meadow in the south end of Konschtat highlands? Inbetween the craigs to get to Noth Gustaburg, there was this little meadow. It didn't serve much purpuse other than to be a small quiet spot. It was things like this that helped keep the game feel like a world.

As an aside, I find it funny when people say "feels like a second job". My job is to test videogames. That's what I get paid to do.
Do you know what the difference between work and play is besides payment? How much you feel obliged.
