 @hansbansor5170 regardless of anything, it's to pad time and make you spend more time there. It's ridiculous

@hansbansor5170 that's not an assumption, because you move slower you'll be going from point A to point b slower you will be traveling for longer, therefore padding time.

@hansbansor5170 It's on assumption though it's what's going to happen. Whether or not it's their intent to get people to play the game longer I don't know, but ultimately if you're going to take longer to get from one point to another, that's going to be padding time cuz you could have been doing anything else with that extra minute or two. Now I don't know much about it, but is there a lot to do in between while you're riding? If not then what's the purpose of slowing it down? Cuz if there's nothing in between to stop and go do, and the only point is to get to my destination, then why slow me down? It will pad time more so than anything, much like how in some games in order to do certain things you have to grind for hours and hours for this really really hard item to find. Yeah it's something that always exists but doesn't necessarily mean it's a good thing

@hansbansor5170 I also prefer immersion, but i just want more meaningful traveling, dark souls, even if you avoid the enemies, there's still thinking involved, moving a certain way because they will hit you otherwise, go this way to get a specific item. Starfield from what I've seen, is go a to b, lots of walking not much in between. Breath of the wild does this greatly, with shrines and tons of stuff to look at as you travel.
