I personally really like in sunset overdrive when you try to escape the city and walter dies by crashing the plane into the Fizz co brand invisible wall surrounding the map

[@swinelias]

What I did like about that game is that the invisible wall is actually part of the story, instead of being there just for being there.

[@Virtuous_Rogue]

Saw the title, immediately thought of the jet ski game my friend had with a kraken that flings you back to the course. We spent hours trying to figure out shortcuts abusing the kraken mechanic. I was surprised to see it on this list considering I didn't even remember the title!

Subnautica: the ghost leviathan. I know it’s in the lost river but I’m pretty sure that it’s much more powerful on the edge of the map, also terrifying

I love how New Vegas's map was designed to turn you away from the edges. The canyon would turn you back twords the center in a natural way.

[@valerynorth]

The graffiti at one point addressed directly to you as the courier (and the specific number) telling you to go back, really intrigued me and made me wonder who wrote it (in-story!). But I thought it was a cool way of saying "don't leave the game map".

[@Cunnysmythe]

[@stephlrideout]

Obduction has a really neat mechanic for the "end" of the map. You're trapped in a dome, and when you reach the outer edge, you're warped to the exact opposite side - and this is the only way you can access certain areas of the map. They are counting on you trying to leave the play area to advance the game.

[@angelitabecerra]

This sounds intriguing 🤔

[@stephlrideout]

@@angelitabecerra I found the game a little frustrating because it doesn't have great a objective list (barely has one at all, actually), but the puzzles are good. If you're ok with not really knowing what you should be doing and having to figure it out, it's a really cool game.

[@toaster2371]

Sea of theives actually has a pretty good lore heavy reason for your ship sinking once you go too far off the map, that red sea is called the shroud and everyone in the sea of theives actually had to sail through the shroud, the only reason this is even possible is because one crew captain you can find on one of the volcanic islands says they made it there using the shroud breaker, someone betrayed and killed off their crew, they became stranded on the volcanic islands and formed outposts on them, slowly and slowly pirates found openings in the shroud allowing them to sail through it, the shroudbreaker broke the shroud forever in some way, opening small pathways for people to filter in through, in the tutorial you can see this when the pirate lord helps you continue your journey and sets you on your way, you see hundreds of fleets and ships that have been sunk by the shroud, luckily your ship was small enough to make it through the small pathway

Jak and Daxter series, trying to swim out and getting eaten by the large orange monster fish or the big tentacle kraken monster thing.

[@Gamer88334]

Don't forget that submarine-robot-turret-thing from Jak II. It's the most killable out of the 3, but a problem is still a problem. Especially when you get ambushed in a certain mission. If you don't have the Dark Bomb upgrade or don't have enough Dark Eco, do NOT go into the water during that mission. You will die even if you get back on dry dock.

[@nater1495]

@@Gamer88334 Lord, that dock mission when i was a kid was no joke.

[@DukeofKeK]

My favorite method was with PS2 Mercenary: Playground of Destruction. Cause when you reach the limit you get bombarded with missiles till you're killed. And I believe that its different missiles to different regions of the map. Ah Mattias Nilsson the only Mercenary worth picking.

[@olgagomez8978]

In the COD advanced warfare campaign they a pretty cool way to replace the invisible wall, they either had debris or in some cases, a wall. But it made since. Like one mission where your on a ship, there is a lot of debris bordering the map but the debris was from the previous mission from the Golden gate Bridge, so that's pretty cool for me
