GTAV on jetski, end to end. : 7m23s
XCX Doll standard speed, end to end. : 6m57s
XCX Doll boosted speed, end to end. : 4m29s

So yeah, bullshit.

Every time someone brags about the size of XCX, I cringe a little. That's the type of shit people talk about when there's nothing else to talk about. You know what people bragged about with XC? The story and the presentation. I'm growing ever more skeptical of this game, especially after being burned so hard by MGSV. I'm getting Bethesda vibes from XCX, and I fucking hate Bethesda.


Seamless open world, stable frame rate, no loading areas... this is no Bethesda clone my friend :)

Now you are trying to say that GTA5 is bigger than XCX? Amazing.

Sure it has nothing to do with those skells being like 5 times biger than a normal person and flying way faster.

The geometry is relative, for example, reducing the size of the player character in GTAV wouldn't make the world any bigger, it just makes the player character smaller, XCX is built to be explored in the dolls, thus it's design and complexity is scaled to the doll, not the human character, the very reason characters run faster than normal in XCX is BECAUSE the map is designed around the dolls scale.

But hey, I got across the map even at the slowest doll speed in under 7 minutes, OP's video claims it takes more than 25 minutes, so however you want to spin it, it's still proven to be bullshit.

You can get from one end of the world map to the other in under 5 minutes with boost, meaning in the 25 minutes the video claims "still didnt get across the map", you could actually go across the entire map 5 times. And for a large portion of the video hes in wheeled vehicle mode, which is FASTER than boost mode walking, too.

So straight line is under 5 minutes and you wonder why I call bullshit when a video claims that it takes more than 25 to get across the map?

But hey, don't let me stop your confirmation bias with facts or anything.

Talking about confirmation bias.

So XCX is smaller than Skyrim right?

Scaled appropriately to the character size the map is designed to accomodate, yes, the playable landspace of skyrim is larger than the playable landspace of XCX, World polycount is significantly higher, too.



gosh///// this game is big!



Switch!!!

"Scaled appopiately" wich means: Yes, if you are 5 times bigger and faster than a normal human, then the game is similar to Skyrim. Do you think we are stupid or something?

"because the game is designed to be explored with a skell" Yeah that´s why everybody says you need to spend like 50 or 60 hours just to get your first skell, becuase is completely designed for that.

Clearly the concept of world detail scale is lost on you, so to make things easier, I'll state, again.

Video claims it takes more than 25 minutes to cross the world map, even at highest speed of doll.
Takes less than 5, as proved.

OPs Video = Bullshit.



We need something to compare. Just walking seems too unprecise to use as a measurement.



You know it deserves the GOTY.
