Also GS: red dead redemption 2 is frustrating, 9/10.
My top ten games of the decade are there.
Arkham knight should replace Arkham city in this list
METAL gear solid 5 is really good game,but is it really open world? I mean the place feel like empty space with a few enemy base ,you cant do any activity beside kill or rescue mission ,i dont think thats open world to me
Just gonna ignore destiny 2 eh?
Star Wars: The Old Republic – the most expensive game ever made. Why no SWTOR love?
You forgot Kingdom Come Deliverance and Fallout New Vegas.
Red Dead Redemption 2
Skyrim
Witcher 3
Breath of the Wild
Those 4 open world games were awesome i had a lot of enjoyment with them.
Red Dead Redemption 2 for realism and alive open world.
Skyrim for freedom of gameplay and sandbox gaming.
Witcher 3 for worldbuilding and quests and story/characters
Breath of the Wild for exploration and physics
4 Open world games that defined a generation.
zelda all day ,, until the new open world pokemon game comes out in a few months ,,Which is modeled after Zelda
How about a sunset overdrive 2. Damnit
Xenoblade Chronicles X is missing in this
In my opinion, the fact that Kingdom Come: Deliverance isn't on this list is an insult. Genuinely probably the best game I have ever played, ridiculously immersive and fun
And Fallout New Vegas
"There aren't that many new releases out right now"
????
I’d throw in Subnautica. Might not be as popular as a game like Death Stranding but whereas most of the games on this list are very like one another, Subnautica is completely distinct for many reasons
POV: your sad Dying light isn't here
Death Stranding…come on. I guess you need one more…I get it. 😉
Man, I'm glad Sunset Overdrive's getting recognition. The game's criminally underrated.
Elex, is so much more fun to explore than half the games on this list. And I’ve played them all. If you you see a mountain and fly to the top theirs loot there. Is there’s something that seems worth checking out there’s loot there. You’re rewarded for exploring. That’s good open world design.
A few of my favorites that didn't make the list:
Fallout 4
Dragon Age Inquisition
Cyberpunk 2077
Ghost Recon: Wildlands
Mass Effect 3 (if it counts)
Dragon age origins
Dragon age Inquisition
The Witcher 2
The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt
