    I don't get into my car to drive 400 miles as a means of entertainment.

    No you don't but you are missing the point. Point is, if it's hard on your mind, it is a challenge.

    Doesn't matter if it's "time sync" or whatever. If you can't handle the travel it's a challenge for you.

    lol Rokien YOU are missing the point. I didn't deny that travelling is a challenge. I pointed out that it is absolutely retarded to include as a form of challenge in a VIDEO GAME.

    You can run around everywhere as much as you like to get shit done.

    I don't have all day.

    It is time sink... as in sinking you know like a ship that gets a hole in it sinks in the ocean... Time sync would be trying to say it syncs your time... or matches your time which just wouldn't make sense.

    Anyways for the most part on this... and I don't really like to go this way but I have to agree with Wolfie. Take a break from the forums for a bit before posting again please.

    I personally do not see how this will cause a problem at all... with this I will still have my HP set to Gridania at the Inn and I can not set my HP somewhere else when I got to do events or just helping people with stuff. I think it works out just fine. Also I happen to take the airship all the time and I also run around everywhere and use my chocobo a lot.

    But I guess some of you humans just like messing things up and taking things away from others... I think someone else posted this but I will state it again... This is why we can't have nice things...

    The cat is bemused =-.-=

    There are such things as "good" challenges and "unnecessary" challenges. People do things to try to alleviate the "unnecessary" type. Here are some examples:

    Good challenge - Completing the quests required to get a chocobo (you get a sense of accomplishment and reward for finishing)
    Unnecessary challenge - having to walk from Ul'Dah to Gridania (you just spent 2 hours of your time on this and accomplished very little, unless you take personal pride in making the journey)

    Similarly, in your driving example, it can be mentally exhausting for people to drive 400 miles. In the real world, you would weigh that against the pros and cons of alternatives. If you are able to afford it (which is a challenge in itself), then you fly. If you are unfamiliar with this concept of "airplanes," think of it like an airship. Or teleporting.

    See, it's all about choice!

    Are you trying to force me to make 100 pointless petition threads? Wonder what I should start with?

    Petition: Please change Paladin AF armor to Magical Girl outfits (regardless of sex)!

    See what I did there? I can make up ridiculous petition threads too.

    I'm afraid I don't understand your post. Are you saying that walking from Ul'Dah to Gridania is necessary? Do you do it every single time you want to go between the cities?

    Maybe the initial should be done that way, but do you argue that every other attempt must be done the same way, sans chocobo?

    The travel should be necessary. An airship shouldn't be instant, teleporting should have more repercussions because there is an Airship. I shouldn't beable to just return there do some stuff and return back to uldah with no repercussions.
