You can unlock fast travel in game. You can pay to unlock it early.

It's basically cheat codes as mtx. Doesnt affect the gameplay.

All reviewers were informed that there were going to be microtransactions. Only 2 of 25 reviewers even talked about it in the reviews but both of them said the mtx doesnt have an affect on enjoying the game (the mtx are basically just for people who dont want to play the game as intended)

Cheat codes have long been part of gaming history with. Up up down down...
