Can we get an immersive mode without teleport?

[RushRiviera]

Can we get an immersive mode that can be toggled on, or off, in the setting, that disables teleport unless you are at an aetherite, and adds hunger and sleep mechanics?

I actually love having to journey from place to place, and it would be cool to have a mode where teleport is not an option. Seems like it may be easy to implement.



Edit:

As some people mentioned, just disabling the teleport doesn't change much and most immersive modes involve hunger/thirst/sleep.

So, why not add the hunger in by allowing a setting which makes health only regenerate with food, and a debuff if you don't sleep in a bed for a certain period of time.

Let me reiterate; it would be an 'Optional' setting. If you don't like it just don't turn it on and nothing is different. No new systems need to be added, just disable auto health regen, until food is eaten, which re-enables the auto health regen for 30 seconds. And for the tiredness, just add a timer that when reached adds a health debuff, and the timer gets reset when visiting an inn room/house/apartment/FC house. No new systems added, super simple and optional.

And I know it's not much different to just not using teleport, I just feel like disabling it adds a sense of commitment to the playstyle and gives more of a sense of urgency to it. It's just a nice little feature that could add a greater sense of immersion and size to the world for those who would like to use it.

Edit: Some people seem to be getting weirdly defensive and seem annoyed that I would dare ask for such a feature that makes so little difference. Don't take it so seriously, it was just a random idea that I thought would be fun. I didn't think too far into it so it's really not worth wasting your energy getting upset.

Why do you need a special mode for that when you can just not... teleport?

Well, why should there be any hard battle content either when you can just... not use your high level abilities?

Thats a pretty weird comparison.

My point - thats been echoed quite a bit here - is that what you desire its basically already ingame since you can choose not to teleport if you dont want to or only use it with your self set limitations (like you're only allowed to teleport when you're close to an aetheryte). Personally I refrain from using teleports during (storyheavy) questlines. Not clicking the teleport button is a pretty simple thing to do - if you lack the willpower to do that without any artifical limitations I feel kinda sorry for you, since that seems to be a deeper, personal issue...

I really dont see a need for a setting like this, when there is a solution already at hand - not using the teleport system. Going forward you could even refrain from unlocking any further aerthytes you encounter, there is only a limited amount thats mandatory in the first place.

The difference here is that hard battle content is already entirely optional. It's mostly instanced. You already have to opt into it. And can already opt into making it even harder by, yeah, deliberately limiting yourself. Like silencing echo or ilvl syncing.

You also already have the choice to opt out of fast travel in this game. The choice is already there.

There's also the fun (mostly semantic imo) debate between what counts as convenience vs what counts as content but I mean, that's its own ugly can of worms.

Considering you have to already click into a menu in order to teleport I think that would be a bit redundant and you can just choose not to teleport.

Why? Just don't do it. People have been doing "restricted" runs in games where they impose their own rules on themselves for years.

It would just be nice not to have the temptation and actually be restricted to a different playstyle. Seems like it might be really easy to add so why not?

I have a ng+ run where I have yet to teleports or fly, and I'm towards the end of 2.0. And I've been using both on the same character for years.
