Fast travel: when to use it and when to ride
Fast travel saves time. Riding finds stories. A simple way to balance both.
01The first visit
Travel to a new region on foot, horse or vehicle. You will find side stories, views and places you would never see from the map screen.
02Return trips
Once you have seen a route, fast travel freely. There is no prize for riding the same road twice.
03Games that limit it
Death Stranding and Days Gone limit fast travel on purpose: the journey is the game. Sable has none at all, but your hoverbike is quick.
04Set a session goal
Pick one area or one quest per session. Big maps are easier to enjoy in clear pieces.
05Keep it balanced
If long gaming sessions start crowding out sleep or other plans, take a step back. Samaritans are available any time on 116 123 in the UK.
