This is how playing Pokemon Scarlett feels

[-] Skates@feddit.nl 5 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Name one open-world game from the past 5 years whose map looks like this. Seriously. I'd like to play it.

[-] aido@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Breath of the Wild

[-] Shou@lemmy.world 4 points 2 hours ago

Satisfactory. Alien planet version.

[-] Lennnny@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago
[-] Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Ark's Ragnarok map is almost a copy-paste of this image... I think it's older than 5 years tho.

Meanwhile, in Star Wars:

"This is Snow World. It's all snow there. That is Wet World. The whole planet is wet. Over there is Sand World. Nothing but sand everywhere."

Behold Coruscant! The entire planet ... is a city!

[-] zyratoxx@lemm.ee 28 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

Behold Umate

Coruscant's tallest mountain and the only place where the planet's surface is still visible.

[-] lemmy_get_my_coat@lemmy.world 16 points 5 hours ago

That's some trivia I did not previously know, thank umate

[-] secret300@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 5 hours ago

Honestly I'd love is someone made exactly that map to play around in in a sandbox game

[-] Maultasche@lemmy.world 13 points 7 hours ago

Zelda did that in the 80s

[-] sakodak@lemmy.world 9 points 8 hours ago

I mean, yeah, but this is like showing a picture of the alphabet and saying "this is spot on for so many books."

[-] beefbot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 9 hours ago

I don’t understand why the post is supposed to be funny or critical

[-] zagaberoo@sopuli.xyz 9 points 8 hours ago

It's funny that a desire for biome diversity has led in a small way to a kind of sameyness. Not so much a criticism as an amusing little irony.

[-] Draedron@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 9 hours ago

I mean, what else do you want?

[-] Toofpic@feddit.dk 1 points 52 minutes ago

Can't name anything!

[-] CaptainBasculin@lemmy.ml 4 points 8 hours ago

Why did this immeadiately remind me of chrono trigger

[-] blibla@slrpnk.net 2 points 8 hours ago

why did none say Minecraft yet, this i all i could think off reading these biom names

[-] aido@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Minecraft is a generated world, they didn't go down a checklist while designing a singular map

[-] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 19 points 15 hours ago

Eh, except so many double-down (or triple) on the swamps and caves while omitting more interesting settings like glaciers, oases, rainforests, and river deltas.

[-] GingeyBook@lemm.ee 10 points 13 hours ago

Still want to go here

[-] Wrench@lemmy.world 6 points 12 hours ago

Modern? I thought this was the E.V.O. world map from the thumbnail

[-] 11111one11111@lemmy.world 28 points 16 hours ago

Layout is like 1 for 1 almost with Super Mario World

[-] Jocker@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 hour ago

OP is in trouble!

[-] Sabata11792@ani.social 12 points 15 hours ago

I hate the whole top right section. Those are usually the boring filler zones.

[-] IMNOTCRAZYINSTITUTION@lemmy.world 3 points 12 hours ago
[-] Sabata11792@ani.social 4 points 11 hours ago

Sounds a little plain.

[-] ikidd@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago

Front butte.

[-] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago

The world has to be as diverse as the races that populate it. The real world inspired open world RPGs!

[-] CheeryLBottom@lemmy.world 12 points 16 hours ago

As an American, now living in Canada for the past 20 years, I am really not into the winter area in games I'm currently playing PoE Deadfire Breath of Winter and I want to go back to the beaches and kill stuff :D

[-] rbos@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 hours ago

So, not The Long Dark.

[-] A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 17 points 16 hours ago

I remember when Skyrim came out I was living in a drafty house with no heat in a snowy winter. I was wrapped in like 5 layers sitting at my PC going "Why couldn't this have been in a desert" lol

[-] JeezNutz@lemmy.ml 13 points 15 hours ago

It must've been pretty immersive

[-] A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 6 points 15 hours ago

It was, I'll give it that. You never forget your first FUS RO DA

[-] Zombiepirate@lemmy.world 9 points 14 hours ago

Playing Fallout: New Vegas in the Texas summer will make you wish for a nuclear winter.

This look like Donkey King on SNES

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 8 points 15 hours ago

Or go Star Wars with it and make the entire planet the same geography.

[-] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 11 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago)

Well yeah. You gotta have sound in a videogame. That's a no brainer.

And although you no longer need to have your TV on channel 3 or 4, you do need to use an input for it.

[-] BigWumbo@lemmy.world 4 points 15 hours ago

No cape??!? Literally unplayable

[-] humblebun@sh.itjust.works 6 points 16 hours ago

Gta6 be like

[-] cafuneandchill@lemmy.world 3 points 15 hours ago

Mata Nui Moment

[-] brlemworld@lemmy.world 3 points 15 hours ago

What's the difference between a gulf, a bay, and a sound?

[-] grue@lemmy.world 6 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

Size and/or shape. A gulf is bigger than a bay (e.g. compare the Gulf of Mexico to Tampa Bay), and a sound is more about the opening to the larger body of water than it is about the partially-enclosed body of water itself.

[-] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 hours ago

Whats the difference between a sea and an ocean

[-] IMNOTCRAZYINSTITUTION@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

gulf doesn't always mean bigger than bay. eg the bay of bengal is larger than the gulf of mexico
