StaceyPowers Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 What in your opinion is the best open world video game that’s ever been made? Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yarik Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 It's Grand Theft Auto V for me. I can do everything I want there and have fun exploding and shooting things. Or just drive around with a tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DylanC Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Probably Skyrim or Fallout New Vegas for me. Wish the latter would come to Switch. That’d be a dream come true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joant73 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I would say Skyrim and Witcher 3 are the two best for me. AC Odyssey has been pretty amazing as well, and may be the biggest map I have seen. I would also give a special nod to Ocarina of Time and Mario 64 considering the time at which they were made, they really redefined what an open world could be and set the stage for a lot of current games.

Alyxx Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 (edited) Oof. That's a tough one. Personally I'd say Guild Wars 2 is high on my list. Insanely beautiful game world and a ton of interesting places to visit. Edited November 11, 2018 by Alyxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 I have to go with Final Fantasy 8. When it first came out I wasn't a fan because I thought the game was just too open. But I got into playing it and the openness of the game is one of the things that made me love it. The world is so vast and there are so many things hidden that you can pause your quest to defeat the game and do your own thing for as long as you want, and never do the same thing twice. My characters on the game are virtually invincible, just from junctioning spells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
