Does instant transportation effect game immersion?

[DNO]

dumb something down: trivialize, sensationalize, make shallow, make superficial, make trivial, make frivolous, make less intelligent

Now, i will turn that question back to you.

Is an instanced, insta-port transportation through a click of a button dumbing down what would have otherwise been a flight schedule that you have to tend to and consider every once in a while and time with your own schedule and an Airship ride you have to hop onto and experience?

It is dumbing it down because it removes from it the very nature that it's supposed to reflect, it's more of a teleport than an airship ride now. Is that true or not?

again since the airship ride is in fact shallow, superficial, and trivial the question still stands.

Is it complex to you? waiting is not complex. So nothin in fact was dumbed down. It was just made faster.
