Oh no, I agree that description is necessary. But a lot of fantasy writers seem to lay out their world-building in a clumsy exposition dump and it's especially hard for me to slog through it after I've been reading good fic.
Good fantasy writers work the description/exposition in without clubbing the reader on the head.
