Hell no dude I can play GTA4, Red Dead Redemption, Fallout 3, Skyrim, etc. for hours doing literally nothing story wise...just going around killing/driving/stealing, etc.

I love open world.

As long as the open world the devs build has plenty of engaging gameplay/quests/tasks then I don't see how you can tire of them.

A good example would be the difference between Assassins Creed 1 & 2.

Not at all, I can't wait for GTAV.

Why would I be tired of open world games? I can't get enough of the vast explorations as it is!

Same here.

I adore open world.

I am happy for the poll results so far! The vast majority has voted no.

Elder Scrolls, Red Dead, S.T.A.L.K.E.R., Assassin's Creed, Crysis, Fallout, Mount & Blade, Two Worlds, Dark Souls, GTA, Dead Island, Risen.

So many of my favorite game series are open world. I feel blessed that so many developers choose the open world the design.

Hell no!!!!!!!! freedom of choice baby!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not at all, so long as they are good keep them coming.

If its open world at the expense of story OH GOD YES!!!!!,

If the two can co-exist then I have no problem with open world games, the prevailing open world watered down 'make your own tale by going wherever you want' affairs make stories so awful, tedious & bland its not even worth the time playing them imo. Even one ofr two real fleshed out characters would be nice, and a villian who isnt an unexplained-in-motive (besides "hes evil") sorceror or dragon.

Havent tried kingdoms of amalur or the witcher 2 yet, hoping one of those will break the usual sea of mistakes (imo of course, this whole statement is just my opinion) that commonly exist in these titles.

& it definitely can be done, Final Fantasy 12 is my favourite game &that is open world, but it has a strong overaching story with developed characters & a villain who is quite understandable in his actions (& not a sorceror or dragon).

Come on kingdoms of amalur & the witcher 2! I have hope!

i like exploring
