Well, Sup Forums?

Well, Sup Forums?

I press that shit immediately. No hesitation. No regrets.

But that's my favorite genre.

I will press that button, yes

theres literally nothing wrong with open world rpgs

when you start putting open worlds in your non rpg games that when it becomes an issue

name 1 open world game that would be worse off with linear progression.

Yes

>no more shit games will be made
BUT
>all previously made shit games are deleted

:thinking:

define "open world"

That's actually the complete opposite of the truth. It's precisely in RPGs that shitty open world design suffers the most. At least with sandbox shit like GTA you have an excuse of just fucking around.

>shitty open world design
key word shitty

there are tons of good open world rpgs

Are open world games ever worth replaying anyway?

>gain nothing
>lose something
>pressing the button

Here's another one for you, I tried to use same logic.
Open the spoilered image and you will have your arm cut off, BUT you will also have your leg cut off.

Any game where the map is insanely big and over three quarters of it is empty space (crafting materials and collectibles still count as empty space if that's all they have)

name several

GTA

People act like if open world games didn't exist those companies would somehow make good linear games. Can you imagine Bethesda trying to make some AAA action game or shooter? Or Ubisoft turning Ass Creed into an even more blatant third person Call of Duty.

Actually, there are exactly 0.

entire fallout series, entire elder scrolls series, entire GTA series, minecraft, terraria, X game series, namely X3 terran conflict, I'm too lazy to name more.

Yeah

Correction: Fallout 1 and 2 are not Open World.

I disagree.

playing around in gta gets old after an hour, when you realize nothing has any point.

the vast majority of the map is so empty that the game doesn't even bother letting you go through it.

The real issue is overly ambitious developers not knowing their limits.

That's like saying that every game is open world, but there are invisible walls not letting you cross the rest of infinity. Don't be stupid.

why? I like crafting and collectibles. what would you fill an open world with?

side quests where you fight random monsters? not exactly compelling stuff, bud.

>what would you fill an open world with?
I wouldn't. I'd drastically size it down to have its size match its content density. That's my assumption of how OP's button works, anyways.

I mean a smaller map. what would you have?

>I don't have enough water so I'll just have a smaller glass

from what I recall in Fallout, from the start you can attempt to go any where. Which is a pretty Open World thing. You can also explore those big empty places you'll run in to going anywhere when you get into fights.

Big Empty World.
But that's also THE FUCKING POINT.

Listen. I love the witcher series, but you can damn well bet I am punching that button so fucking hard and fast that it shatters all the bones in my wrist.

Why would I want less games with no upside. Open world games can be ok. They just aren't as good as linear games.

Going anywhere you want is irrelevant. The game is divided in hubs and has random encounters. That's not open world.

>no more gothic
no

???

okay? don't answer the question. seems like not even you know how to make a game world compelling.

The Witcher 1 and 2 ain't open world. Only 3 goes out. There's really no downside in pressing the button.

I would press the shit out of that button.

Why do all these anons hate fun and exploration?

Open World ruins exploration. It's not fun to explore when 95% of what you can find by going in a random direction are collectibles and repeated encounters. You go through one dungeon in Skyrim, you've gone through them all.

Giving a shitty game as an example of all open world games is dishonest.

Does Diablo II count? Can I finish playing that first?

I don't get this.
At least in V, the world actually feels like it's worth exploring. Random encounters, sick fuckin cars to jack and tune up, character customization, all the little details like meeting other characters ingame etc.
Even driving doesn't feel like a chore with a bretty big world and nice radio stations, it's actually pretty relaxing.
Seems to me like you faggots need to have dopamine pumped into you 24/7 for a game to be enjoyable.

Name one (1) good open world game

any assassin's creed

Most Legend of Zeldas.

>minecraft, terraria
Procedurally generated != open world

All MMOs.

autistic opinion

Procedurally generated and open world aren't mutually exclusive.

BOTW

They are though

I want to press it but I'm worried that a monkey paw will happen and all games will become cinematic uncharted clones or something

>le I hate le open worldz mene xD
It should be such a pain to be an autistic fuck who get butt devastated for a genere that he doesn't like and for that reason want it to disappear.

No Legend of Zelda is Open World other than Breath of the Wild, which sucks because of its Open Worldness.

Is this the cyoa thread?

confirmed for retard.

>mmos are not linear progression

what did he mean by this

We can argue that rooms are technically an instanced open world.

No, I don't press the button, because I'm not an autistic manchild upset by the existence of things I don't personally enjoy. If I don't want to play an open world game I don't fucking play it. If some retard likes them (I do agree they tend to be bland), why do I give a shit?

FO:NV
Shadow of Mordor
Any Tales of game

I don't know what it is about gaming that attracts such petulant retarded man children but it does frankly disgust me.

Are you retarded?

Open world games by definition are designed that way. Some have partial procedural generation, like Oblivion, but they still have the human design element.

Worlds that are entirely procedurally generated lack that element and are therefore not considered open world.

Literally only Xenoblade Chronicles X

...

Not an argument

Press

Sorry forgot I need to explicitly spell it out for you. I am asking you why a human element in world design is necessary for a game to be considered open world.
