An open world game never made me feel these feels

It's like no dev is even trying

The way to impress op:
Tiny little scenic areas, and you jump to the next one instead of tread in between when passing the edge.

Also you kill animals like an asshole. As an asian.

Because that image tricks your eye into believing the vista is more distant and vast than it really is. In an actual 3D game world, true vastness is just like IRL. It looks pretty, but it will take hours to travel. Only flying and racing games can pull it off without annoying the player. Getting out of the maps in Battlefield games shows why you can't actually have even semi-real life scale.

If you really want that adventure, play the new Microsoft Flight Sim and explore the world on foot. If you want the next best thing, play modded Minecraft with infinite render distance, or that one Avatar game which has one of the best environments in gaming.

>>743386558
Open world games aren't exciting because you know there's nothing out there. It's a bunch of empty space with no soul; probably literally since it's all procedurally generated soon to be AI generated trash.

Stuff like MH is carefully crafted with interesting stuff to find and interact with all over the place. An actual person sat down and created interesting landscapes.

You were the one asking for UE5 waterfalls after not including them in your post (See: >>743398801 and >>743399245). You obviously just wanted a quick dunk and didn't expect anyone to think for more than 5 seconds and reply so you kept pushing the goalpost, fixating or waterfalls, then accused me of it. Apply yourself.

These are both just huge expanses of nothing. The monster hunter screenshot had cool mountain lake waterfalls and a river. You know the terrain beyond trees and hills. And this is without getting into the fact that OP is just scenery that you can't go to. So you won't need to traverse it every time the yan kutku flies away.
>>743400069
No. It's getting there, and it not living up to your expectations.

>>743400169
I'm sorry. That's really sad. They put way more work into that, and it's not visible at all. That's the most pitiable I've seen in a while.

>>743394002
There's nothing wrong with traveling for an hour if it's interesting and has enough combat. The game just has to design for that. In a fast paced game like battlefield, you'd only need an automatic system that pushes spawns further out as the team advances in the match - or if the team doesn't advance quick enough, the game ends within 5-10 minutes to prevent a boring stalemate. You could easily have a map 50 kilometers long and the match wouldn't take longer than an hour since not all players have to travel the same distance. You'd just redeploy to catch up with the rest when necessary, and then continue advancing while fighting.

Crimson Desert's graphics are hard to appreciate through video or pics. You get that wow factor when you're walking around and the landscape is detailed, gorgeous, realistically set up. Like when you visit a town you typically ride through the gorgeous farmland with people working the fields. Physics, people, cities, landscape all come together beautifully.

Yes me too. I don't want giant maps I just want to feel far away from home in a new environment. Old MH accomplishes this without needing to actual simulate the player traveling 100 miles. It's Monster Hunter not Woods Hiker, scenery should be scenery.

The point is that open world devs can't recreate that feeling in games where you can go there and explore

It's like a book author saying which actors they imagined their characters as, they're collapsing the infinite options of your imagination into only one defined option that you can disagree with

>>743401205
Bro the worst part of the jungle map is the one with a shit ton trees because anything that makes it's more than 5% harder to locate the monster is basically a death trap. Do you want to fight anything down there? Unless that is supposed to be area 2, and it's a cool thing where you can look down at the place before you go there. Then my point still kinda stands.

It's been years since I had to do that quest. I don't know what advice I could give you other than I saw in a video that in an older generation small barrel bombs also work. I grinded for the Cehpadrome armor because it looked cool, so I can tell you it's possible. But that's like saying it works on my machine. Did you do aerial style too? That makes everything in low rank a joke.

You really need to look into what adept actually does on each weapon.
With like one exception playing adept completely removes the key mechanic behind a weapon and shifts to a context-sensitive action you can only perform after a successful adept dodge.
It completely changes the feel of how some weapons play, for better or worse.

>>743403748
...and moves it elsewhere. You don't just lose the feature entirely. Usually.
That's not to say adept is bad (granted I don't remember which weapons it's especially good on and which ones have it not so good) but yeah it definitely isn't just free bonuses.
I wouldn't recommend using any styles other than guild until you've already become familiar with how that weapon works and can recognize what you're giving up in order to be able to do funny hops and big dodges and shit but then like, the styles are what the game is all about so go crazy after that, don't be afraid to move out of your guild-oritented comfort zone.
