10 MOST LIVED-IN Open World Games

[@mateusales]

I feel the empty spaces in rdr2 actually make it feel more real.. how they're filled with animals doing their thing, filling ecological niches... It just feels natural

[@rascallygoose4926]

That’s what I enjoy too, a lot of games now have too much city in the game, GTA has a similar style but its map is just a city and mountains, RDR2 has environment changes everywhere and it’s nice being able to experience different environments

[@landondixon3739]

It’s not even empty space. It usually densely packed with trees or animals

[@amckgm3224]

Also its not entirely empty, theres active campsites with people doing unique things, abandoned campsites, abandoned homesteads, and all kinds of random encounters.

[@camaronwoodus5241]

Not just that but they even have different star cycles on clear nights, people getting robbed, people out hunting shop keepers going home at a certain time everyday the little things make this game phenomenal

A weird but in my opinion worthy addition to the list: Dying Light. For an open world game inhabited mainly by undeads, with so many repeated assets featuring in every loot centered interior you can visit while roaming around, it really gives a dynamic and satisfying feeling when you parkour your way through it. It was very unexpected to me when I played this game, and I think that a large part of DL's success was due to the surprisingly enjoyable open world it features.

I went back to Dying Light after only playing Dying Light 2 since it’s release last year. I couldn’t agree more, Dying Light 1’s open world feels so real and you really feel like you’re living in it. I only wish Dying Light 2 was like this as well.

No Watch Dogs?? For the first one, Ubisoft went to Chicago and did a ton of research. The even recorded hundreds of hours of conversation in the Chicago accent for you to overhear as you walk past pedestrians, and had a replicas of real Chigaco landmarks (I think 100 of them?). Plus, every NPC felt like a real person, because you could hack their phone and read their texts, listen to their phone call, or see details about their personal life. It covered not only the main city hub, but the nearby town of Pawnee, which had a totally different feel to it, and being able to hack into the infrastructure to disrupt it felt like interacting with a real and complex ecosystem.

Also, you could find some of the NPCs in the local bar after work hours. Sadly the world was really pretty small compared to the games that came out later.

For all its flaws, I feel Fallout 4 needs a spot on this list as well. There's so much detail in the environment, the ruined city and the gear people wear. There's history in every bit of scrap on the ground, and every cobbled-together piece of equipment.

[@aowowoiae]

[@a.syching678]

Ahh yes, love the outpost customisation too. Building bases and what not. Wish game developers would implement this more. Only game I saw that has base building is no man sky, state of decay but limited to prefab bases, skyrim but also limited to prefabs, and no im not gonna mention minecraft, ark , rust or other multiplayer games. Wish a game like middle earth would pop out too where you can customize fort and build a kingdom and be an overlord conquering other kingdoms and choosing generals, so much potential in middle earth som and sow.

[@beezyj3227]

Yea but watching this channel it seems they only really know about like 30 mainstream games, and some odd indie games. Apparently that's not one of them. Seriously, watch a bunch of this channel's videos and you will see the trend of the SAME GAMES (and games of the same series) coming up over and over for every single category. It's kind of frustrating. Just anecdotally, I can bet that a Fallout, Elder Scrolls, "Souls like", Yakuza, Dead Space, Duke Nukem, Doom, Final Fantasy, or one of the few other games in their roster will appear in any given list. No matter what the category or title of the video, they will find a way to fit the same games on every list. Idk why I watch. Probably mostly because I do like hearing about games that I haven't played, and I mostly scroll the comments as a means of a forum to discuss them, but by this point I don't even need to play something like Elden Ring. Off this channel alone I pretty much know everything about it. Not saying that replaces actually playing it for the entertainment experience, i'm just driving home the point that they talk about it so much that they covered everything.
