Current Events > Anyone dislike all the open world games on the market?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I need some more story driven games.

No I like them. I just need to actually play more of them.

Sometimes it's nice to have a linear game, where you can't avoid obstacles or enemies. Plus, it's a lot simpler, and "purer".

Open world just means you have to walk more

Eh, I like a game that gives me options

Like the older Non Breath of the Wild Zeldas.

I was thinking about it and I certainly feel like with newer technologies companies are making these games bigger, but I think we're at the point now where bigger doesn't mean better.

Think about how immersive GTA 3, Vice City and San Andreas were. They didn't have the biggest maps, but they captured the time period, the essence of their settings so perfectly.

They didn't have fast travel but I didn't care because I didn't feel any pressure to fast travel and it didn't take half an hour to cross the map. Or when I did, like in San Andreas, I could do it with a plane from an airport and it was awesome.

Now the games are just too big, you spend half your time in menus fast traveling and looking at loading screens. That just means the map is too big. And then they add a bunch of dumb repetitive shit to the blank space because they realize it's too big.

We just need smaller open world games.

No, and most of the ones I play are very story driven
