Why don't open world games seem to have rewarding exploration anymore?

because devs figured out you can just shit 900 of the same collectibles across the map and autists will go after them.

why do zoomers play open world games

Because you grew up and realized searching every nook and cranny of the map for worthless crap in not fun at all.

Pretty much. I used to love running around liberty city in gta 3 listening to the random crap pedestrians would say and randomly beating people with bats for money. Couldn't be assed to do that shit today.

Why did the Penguin do it?

it had autism

to get to the other side.

Why do humans do it?

He just wanted to climb some mountains

It just depends on what you want from Exploration. For me a nice scenery and a enchanted weapon is enough. For me Skyrim feels the most satisfying. BOTW was also good, because it had no Questmarkers.

Because Herzog's film crew isolated it from the crowd and scared it into running in that direction for the sake of the shot.

Because only in 2D metroidvanias are there actually meaningful upgrade rewards that actually change how you explore

If you actually watched the documentary, you people would know that it's more so because of the desire for exploration and discovery than it is for suicidal thoughts. The documentary is mostly about the people who go down to Antartica, and WHY they go down there. It's because they have a desire to explore, they are weirdos who have "fallen off of the rest of the world", and they felt like they had no where else to go.

Is this the same penguin that defended his gang?

>10x of "can't progress here before you find the green key card"
>can't mark jack on your map
>no way to gray out the map so you can keep track of what ground you've covered since you picked up the last "key card"
they're just a pain in the ass

>Penguin just wants to be himself
>Dies cold and alone

With how bloated game budgets are nobody is going to put the effort and money into something that most players won't see. That's why so many games blow their load in the first 5 hours and the rest is just copy paste bullshit.

I know Herzog can be a piece of shit, but holy fuck I'm pissed off big time if this is true

What happened to it? I’d like to think it died for being an idiot but I just don’t know.
