What do you think is better the ability to fast travel from oblivion and get anywhere you have already found very quickly.
Or silt striders, boats and mages guild transports from morrowind. not to mention divine intervention and mark and recall.

since oblvion was really badly rushed most things ( citys twices as size more weapons and armour more quest etc etc) one thinks they took off is the boat transport to anvil bravil or leyawin

there are some mods like Midas spells of auram and stargate network change things to make fast travel more easier

I generally prefer public transport to fast travel, unless I'm escorting someone.

I would too except when the retarded AI decides to chance some stupid enemy (could be some dumb wolf) for hours on end, and if that enemy finally dies, they seem to forget they had a horse and just start walking.

I just fast travel back to the locations with escorts. Can't stand going on a wild goose chase just because my escort wants to kill the stupid deer or wolf >.>

For general use, Fast Travel is a bit better since it allows for a wider range of locations without alot of additional setup time. Afterall, if public transportaton was added into Oblivion people would complain about either not being able to see the player travel, or there only being a handful of locations open to the player at a time. Fast travel is just the quick and dirty method of allowing the same thing as transport without all that additional work. However this is not to say that transports don't have their place, it's just that they are better off left to more significant changes of location, like another island or continent, the sort of things that the player can't simply walk to.

Since I use Immersive Travellers and M.O.E., I prefer to avoid fast-travel when playing.
It's much more profitable to occasionally pickpocket or pummel whomever I meet. smile.gif

While debugging a mod, however, I am the king of fast-travel.

well anything that doesnt fast travel is better
