Dragon's Dogma 2's Limited Fast Travel Frustrates More Than It Encourages Exploration
- Dragon's Dogma 2 director defends lack of fast travel to encourage exploration, but it often does the opposite in practice
- Fast travel is limited to rare oxcart trips between cities and expensive teleport stones
- Trying to complete quests often involves tedious backtracking instead of exploration
- Readily available fast travel in games like Elden Ring doesn't preclude exploration
- Annoying fast travel limitations in Dragon's Dogma 2 actively discourage questing and returning to previously visited areas
