    I will do the same as with GTA V:

    • Play the whole story
    • Do side-content till I’m bored
    • Fuck around trying to go as fast as possible around the whole city.

    I am a simple man, I just want to have a big city to run around.

      We finally found him! John Openworld! The core reason why game devs keep making every game into an open world!

      I have a question I always wanted to ask. Is it more important for the world to be deep or wide? More side content or more to navigate?

        I do prefer content to be distributed in central hubs with fast transportation between them. I don’t like fast travel, I want to be the one moving. I want to play the first spiderman game because of that.

        If you want a deep world, you should use the dark souls formula using branching paths with a defined beginning and ending.

        Open world is for 3 good missions in each central location and 100 fetch quest I will not do

            Haven’t played any of them yet but I would like to. It would depend on what you can do in those areas. If it is like for example assassins creed without traversal between cities I would enjoy it.
