Does instant transportation effect game immersion?

I laughed, but I think they should give us the option to turn it off if we want. I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

Press 'M' for map anyways.

Only thing I use the mini-map for is to determine if the cliff infront of me is scalable or not. If there's a black line on the MM, it's not, if there's no black line, I can run up it even if it's practically vertical.

There's a funny area to do this just west of Camp Skull Valley, nestled inside and small thicket surrounded by cliffs. Inside the thicket is a collection of near vertical very thin rock faces that you can run across, looks hilarious seeing your character bounce up and down like a yo-yo as you go along.

This unusual way to navigate however, does not affect my immersion. I perceive merely as a small snippet of comedy value that has no real importance to the world as a whole.
