Death Stranding

As we all wait forthe sequelto Hideo Kojima’sDeath Stranding, it’s worth revisiting this combination of walking simulator, delivery sim, and bonkers Kojima story. It’s an open-world that seemingly offers a great deal, depending on what you’re after. You can saddle up a vehicle, or stack delivery boxes on your back before heading out into the lush wilderness. There is a story to follow, but honestly, just being in this world, existing to ferry cargo and plod the roads or desire paths, is a joy. You can get lost for hours just strolling from point A to point B, building makeshift bridges and scaling small hills while the rain drizzles and amelodic tune playsaway in the background.

Ahh,Fallout 3. Probably the bestFalloutgame because it moved the game from an isometric RPG into a fully fleshed out 3D world as deep as anything elseBethesdahas created. The wasteland is a miserable place to be, yet it’s entirely engaging due to the amount of wonderful points of interest or small diversions. It’s considered to be one of gaming’smost immersiveopen-worlds. While we all wait for aremastered edition of the game, it’s worth revisiting. It’s aged surprisingly well and the apocalyptic landscape is still eerily beautiful, plus it’s packed with some of the best quests Bethesda has ever written.

The second appearance of Bethesda on this list, and not without good reason. The time ofFallout 3andSkyrimis perhaps the developer at their best. So,Skyrimhad to take a place here because it’s perhaps open-world crafting at its very best. Ask any player and one of the reasons why they loveSkyrimis because of the “Oh, what’s over there?” factor. It’s easy to spend hours and hours just wandering, looking in caves, discovering villages, and battling random enemies. The world ofSkyrimis still very beautiful, and captivating, even 12 years later - and Bethesda thinks we’ll still be playingSkyrimwell into the next decade. They’re not wrong.
