   Dude, making a game of the same genre as dota arena style  isn’t snitleag, or all the recent MMORPGs would just be a stolen copy of EverQuest, plus RIOT games actually has members of the former dota team, it’s called genre

     In the ol’ MUD days room descriptions were tsaked with providing length and breadth as part of the player experience. Five rooms had to sound like 50 because who wants to travel through 50 rooms of forest? It’s what I taught our designers, this making the world larger stuff. But in reality, as large as you made it sound, it really was small enough to navigate easily and complex enough to tarry in should the mood strike you.I don’t care much for bigger, larger graphics driver-imploding worlds that take time to navigate (except that they provide the most excellent opportunities for bio breaks). The older I get the more I find myself wanting my old gold ring that let me set a bind point wherever I needed one, or my instant travel spell so I could hurry if I needed to. Mounts and flights and boats are cool but they’re often inefficient in the immediacy of LFG/LFM. I just flat-out don’t have an hour-plus to travel to where I want to go.I’m not sure why immediate travel is such a bane in MMOs. We could certainly use more of it in all kinds of games. I’m pretty sure I’ve done the quest you’re talking about a few times in WoW, mostly as something to do rather than out of necessity. Hit the bird, go make a sammich, watch an infomercial =P
