| I think leash distance is fine personally, but I also have a pretty dope PC. I feel the leash distance makes me respect the world a bit more, in WOW for example you can just run through the majority of zones/camps with little concern for you're own well being as they'll leash very very quickly. The LFG thing seems like a cosmetic thing, its not that hard to hit "o", its actually quicker than typing /who all LFG even @ 120wpm+.
As far as travel, I enjoy the longer times as it makes the world feel just as large as it is, which is fucking huge, this game is 17gb+. Its all personal opinion but thats my take on it. |
