but what is there to actually do in that world? I doubt it's as fleshed out as Skyrim.

About as much as there's to do in Skyrim's world?

Love that game, but outside of the main story it was a lot of the same types of quests/enemies/roaming mobs.

witcher 3 is GOAT fleshed out open world (honestly GOAT game ever, but I digress) imo and zelda reminds me of witcher 3 in a lot of ways

it'll be interesting to see if the zelda team can outdo cd projekt red in fleshing out an open world

They didn't include open water in the graph for WW. Which makes sense considering you can't do anything but travel on it.

That map has to be inaccurate. Wind Waker's map was way larger than that.

Hmm..56 square km is a lot less than 360

However, Xenoblade Chronicles X devs helped on BotW:

During an interview at E3, legendary developer Shigeru Miyamoto told us, “Yes they are involved in this Zelda. People from Tokyo and Kyoto are working together on this. There is a team of over 100 helping work on this project, and their work has really been helpful.”


That is huge.

Outside of Witcher 3's world, XCX has on of the most interesting worlds out there.

Idk what's worse, comic book movie craze, or the massive, empty, open-world craze

I've been rewatching both batman trilogies and it pisses me off what DC is shitting out these days.

But you have to admit every zelda fan will love a giant world because of all the secrets to find.

Witcher 3 wasn't "empty" . Haven't played much else to compare.
