>>57292647Open world is bullshit, you only really have 2 options.
1. Open field of fucking nothing with a few dungeons between in.
2. A small clustered ubisoft collectathon with radio towers for map discovery.
The best way to do open world is doing instanced zones. The fear of loading screens is retarded, instead of having one great big field of nothing put 4-5 really big zones with a more focused design concept.
People will remember the ice zone way more than a patch of green grass that suddenly is a tundra with no explanation.
Outside of area zero the most noteworthy place in scarlet and violet is when the grass suddenly became yellow for some reason.
