Game Design & 3 Hints For Creating Open Worlds

By Jennifer Marie Anderson


If you want to talk about open world video games, it's clear that there is much to focus on. I am sure that most will agree with the notion that there is a tremendous degree of freedom to take into consideration, but there should be enough to see and do to make it worthwhile. These aspects should be focused on by those who pride themselves on being game designers. Open worlds can be made well, provided this list of 3 methods is taken into consideration.

Creativity is one of the initial talking points when it comes to the creation of open worlds in games. Shouldn't players feel like there is more than enough for them to get involved in, even if it means that they have to make the effort to create as well? "Minecraft" did a tremendous job of this, as it is a video game that practically necessitates the creativity in question. When players are tasked with building their own worlds, greater possibilities stand the chance of surfacing.

A lack of repetition helps to make open world video games stand out as well. If you want to talk about what this entails, "Fallout 3" is perhaps one of the finest examples that can be addressed. It's not hard to see why, given the many enemy types and locations that can be combated and ventured, respectively. Despite its almost lifeless appearance, this world is far from bland. If anything, it's perhaps one of the most engrossing open worlds that can be explored.

More than anything else, it seems, imagination should play a role in the creation of open worlds. You want to make sure that you can create something that can be described as "special," in comparison to what is already out on the market. Yes, it can be argued that everything has been created already, so it's not like everyone will bring an entirely new idea to the table. However, when established concepts are treated to new spins, it can prove to be just as effective.

With the highest level of quality intact, there's no doubt that open world video games can open up an entirely new realm. It's easy to see that the gaming industry has expanded in the past number of years, so the idea of more open worlds isn't out of the question. In fact, they can be used to create more interactive experiences that can only be described as rewarding. When these are created well, it's easy to see that stronger possibilities can rise to the surface.
