korenogamer Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 I tend to be more of an RPG purist when it comes to traversing the landscape of a game. I dont like having the option to just click a button and a second later appear across the map. I know that I could just choose not to use fast travel and hoof it, but I also want to remove this temptation. I also do not like how instant and boring the wagan travel is. So...... My proposal is two fold. Disable fast travel.Create a more emersive experience when using the wagons. Add more locations for "Wagon Stops". Riverwood and so on.Remove the stationary wagons and replace them with a "ticket counter". When a ticket is purchased, the wagon comes into view from a distance and moves toward the "wagon stop".Each wagon has a single guard onboard at all times.While not using the wagons, they should occasionally come through dropping off passengers and picking up new ones. This would also require a separate "more life" mod.The wagons should actually travel to the destination with you sitting in the back just taking in the scenery.Have random encounters. Attacks from raiders, animals, and even dragonsBreakdowns. You would need to supply certain raw materials to repair the wagon before continuing.Avelanches. Would require your shout to clear the path.

Drytor Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 I believe this has been alluded to in several other mod suggestions but I very much agree with the addition of having a choice between skipping to the next destination or riding it out (think Red Dead Redemption). Perhaps when you get on the wagon you gain a toll that goes up. The path could go through or at least near towns at a slightly slower speed but actually stop at the cities with one or two carriages on each route. I doubt this would be a massive strain to create.

Vootins Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Seriously want this. I can't resist fast travel when it's there, but would prefer the good old Morrowind travel system. Actually, I wish silt striders would make sense in this country. Loved how weird all the creatures were in that game. Much more interesting. But my only grief was that you never saw them traversing the landscape. Do they have a cloaking device? Same with the wagons, though I think having to sit out a full ride would take forever. Wagons aren't that fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
