A collection of things as random as my mood and personality.
World-Wide travel
Posted 12/10/2010 at 23:15 by Vaidas B
Once again, hello! To start off, I want to apologize for the lack of updates, but I’ve been sick and had no motivation to work on my little “project”, until I get back on track, I’ll keep it plain and simple. So, let’s get down to business.
Most games these days have vast open worlds, “jaw dropping “ look’s and astonishing detail… EVERYTHING from icy mountains, green tropical forests, and bone-dry deserts. But the detail, is not the only thing that has changed over the years, the size also increased. The problem with older games is that every time you want to see something new, change your location, you see a very annoying “Loading” screen. Newer games support huge maps that take quite some time to cross. So, your only problem is – how to travel. Are you going to run on with your own two feet? Explore the world on your own, take your time and enjoy the experience. Use a mount? Control an epic beast on your journey, or perhaps something a little bit more on the technological side? The speed, and the company of a trusty friend.
If you’re not traveler , you can just teleport to your destination and avoid walking, swimming, riding, or flying. Sometimes wasting time is not an option, and you have to rush towards your goal.
The fun part about huge maps is the variety of things you can do on them. Be alone on your little “secret hiding place”, have a fun pvp without any interruptions, or have a massive guild/boss battle. But first you have to get there, so just focus on the journey, not the destination, and more importantly, have fun.
Conclusion: if your game has the privilege of having an open world – enjoy it, explore it, and do the things you like.
