holy hell im not sure about any else but i play RPG's for the ROLE PLAYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! for the realism, i like to play so that i can escape, my endless hours of work, the inesscant chattering of my girlfriend, i play for the realism, if this fast travel system actually is in oblivion i will ignore it with religious fervor, i want realism, i meen jobs, hunger, aging, and the such, this totally makes oblivion very far from the REALISTIC RPG'S that super hardcore fans are looking for yours sincerely Luthiel Dragonsoul
