i mean if we're gonna edit every little boring thing we find in games we'll probably f*ck up the structure of it cause we just want to skip to the action.

I bet you alot of ppl just plowed through Mass effect just to bang a hot alien and i bet you those ppl didn't appreciate the scenery or the ambience the game creates.

in that specific case you're in the elevator of your ship but imagine they didn't have that feature and instead they had a convenient tele-transportator you could use to go to any room directly.
that would take you directly to your objective but you would lose the exploration and the ambience of the game in the process
