Waiting for the reviews on this one. The hard stance against fast travel turns me off. I only have so many hours in the day and slogging for 30 minutes to an hour between locations does not sound fun.

I love the combat from the first one though. Jumping on the bosses just felt bad ass.

I have avoided the trailers for spoilers reasons but the first game has a fast travel component it's just not standards. There is teleport stone at the main city which you can go back to and you can place(?) A couple in other places. Generally when you have to travel for main quests between places it's as part of the main quest.

I do respect your stance though obviously if a game is directed in a way that you don't vibe with there's no reason to force yourself to play it
