Is traveling around in HR too easy?
Absolutely. We need some kind of limitations on all these modes of transportation.

Not at all. I love being able to travel from one side of the known world and back in a matter of minutes.

I voted YES as a person who never used any of that stuff.

when this question was presented to me, I said no...

I don't teleport anywhere, and the rift potion is something I forget (but am glad for)

people take TRAVELING for granted in my opinion

I am not for making it take a full day to get to anywhere in HR. My memories of those kind of boat trips are still quite fresh and disliked even after not having to take one in 3 years. That's just my opinion on the traveling of course.

One other thing that concerns me, is that if an impromptu RP event or invasion happens. Whether GM run or player run, to have it take hours to get to where it might be happening only to have it be long since ended will be an adjustment for us all.

My feelings on this:

Not every character/race/profession can teleport. And so what if you don't get to an impromptu RP event? There will be others. That's the chance you take going far far away. I firmly believe that there should be some areas accessable only by a good bit of travel. And that travel should not be so easy unless every profession has a way to travel semi-instantaneously somewhere to even it out.

I'm saving that post! If an alterer comes in that you've wanted to see for a year, and you can't get back in time to see him/her because you traveled far away. Maybe he/she will be back in a year or two. Just a lame example......probably would never happen that way anyway.

To continue more of what my pseudo question is:

From what I understand, and please correct me if I'm wrong, but won't there be racial towns in LIVE that are far, really far, from each other? Spreading us out quite a bit? I'm sorry if I don't agree with the majority that wants to spend more time getting from town to town, but I'm willing to listen to the reasons why we should.

I haven't read anything about racial towns. Perhaps you meant profession towns (Virtuoso, Wargale, Rinth, Abbindalore, and.. that other one)?

Yes, my error. Profession based towns.

In that case, I can't recall anything being said about their distance from one another. I can only hope they aren't too far, because Medics are going to need to distribute easily to the other towns. Confused

Humans and Eolai have racial only towns according to Gabrielle.

And if I miss an alterer, than I miss an alterer. It's my fault for spending all my time in Rinth and not yet coming up with a transporter device.

The human area previously mentioned was pretty much canned. Not to screw humans (we may add, in fact it seems likely we'll add, a human area) but because the Terra Historia concept itself just didn't work well within Haelrahv. However, Humans are a huge influence on Abbindolare.

There are some cities which do have distinct racial flavors to them. Bosque is a small village that is greatly represented by Eolai Trackers. Wargale is more or less shared by a population of mostly Alteri and Jaddan together, and so on.

Good, that was an evil human bigot villiage. And there's Esia too.

Ok, I can't use most forms of rapid transit. I have had a few helpouts by some nice people, especially when I am on Chodaku, waiting for a boat, and a medic needs a tech. However, it seems to me that with HR being so small, and in not live mode, it will all be elementary by the time it really matters. Dunno, just seems to me.
