The fact that you can go that far out of the bounds/the map and just keep free-roaming instead of getting auto-killed by the game for doing so is insane and the fact the game world is that huge and not part of the usable game world... hats off to the dev team!

[@SlingerSword]

Totally agree! The freedom to explore so much of the map is incredible. Huge props to the devs for creating such an expansive world.

Never thought Fableverse is part of Tussaint map. Wonder why they did it that way. Using seperate worldspaces is far less likely to create unpredictible bugs, which is why it's always prefered by developers.

[@juanca2807]

Not really, it depends what engine you are using, if you can just put everything on memory it means less loading screens and maybe even less chances to get crashes, for example when the game needs an instance of an object and it is still not loaded. Chances are it was quicker to develop this way, they already had empty terrain, didn't need to create a new layer or a separated map. It takes a considerable amount of time before these glitches appear and only with people purposefully trying to exploit them.

Its actually quiet fascinating how many tricks they needed to use back then and even now to deliver such games.

[@aralornwolf3140]

In the mid 1990's a game company decided to answer the question "is it possible to create a large 3d game, with hours of content, without using loading screens?" Their answer was Dungeon Siege; a top down isometric party based, hack and slash dungeon crawl. I encountered a bug, once, when the engine failed. This showed me exactly how the engine is making the game seamless. Each "area" consisted of tiles. As the player moved across the map, the game engine was loading the tiles they were walking towards while _unloading_ the tiles they are moving away from. As this was a top-down isometric game, the developers had full control over how many "tiles" were required to be loading and unloading as the players traversed the map. 1st/3rd person view open world games can't do that as they encounter a different problems. One of which is view distance and related, preventing the player from seeing how small the map actually is. They utilize mountains and banks of fog to obscure the map, and objects so they don't need to be rendered. The objects close to the player are fully rendered in 3d, the objects that are far, but not "too far" are rendered as low polygon 3d objects. Objects further than them, are just 2d representations. All of this is to hide the scale of the map while also reducing the CPU/GPU usage. The player expects to see as far as the established horizon. However, as the players increase their altitude (say, by climbing a tall tower) they expect to see more of the map, just as how it is in reality. The developers can't use the same viewing distance as though they are standing in a forest, as that's immersion breaking. Thus, the developer design their games around variable viewing distances. All of that is compounded by the fact that people with better computers will expect to see more of the world in better detail simultaneously on the "Ultra High" settings when compared to the "Ultra Low" settings. Now have the players stand at a high altitude next to the "border" of the playable portion of the map... and This is why open game worlds (and similar maps) always have larger maps than the "expected" playing area.
