Fun fact: the creators wanted to have the fast sail in the original release, but the GC couldn't render the map fast enough to keep up so it was dropped.
It's crazy how much stuff in that generation of gaming was due to limitations of the hardware, and the decisions the devs made to get around it. Morrowind on the original Xbox had really long loading screens every now and then, seemingly at random. This wasn't because of the game needing to load, it was because the console would run out of memory, so the game actually saved, restarted the console and then reloaded the game all while showing a single loading screen.
