I despise Fast Travel in video games, to me it's a feature that appears necessary because no thoughts were given about making the environment interesting to traverse

But in real life ? I crave the time saving it offers

As a counterpoint, I like it in video games for the same irl reason: it saves time.

I do love games where it feels alive when traveling on foot/horse/etc. but I would rather fast travel if I've already explored it, generally speaking.
