>>50253360>GTA>open worldNo, they're shitty free roaming/sandbox games. You're still locked to the game's linear progression and there's literally nothing to do in the game's map other than doing random minigame missions or jerk off. Basically, it's just a huge ass hub world. It's somehow even worse than pokeshit, so it's no wonder that brats are crazy about GTA
Look at shit like botw and fallout for proper open world shit. You can go literally everyfuckingwhere and unlock new mainline quests. You can even go straight to the game's ending right from the get go.
PLA is literally the exact same as the older pokemon games, except you have a big ass empty route instead of a small ass route
>b-b-b-but muh sidequests!!!Even SM and fucking LGPE had sidequests in its routes
>b-b-b-bbut there's lots of different pokemons to catch in each area!!!Is SWSHit an open world game now because of the wild area?
Game sucks, go play morrowind if you want a proper open world game you faget
