I actually might like a game that big... If it were actually a game that big. Starfield is a perfect example of pointlessly big but full of nothing. A game with the depth and complexity of some of the best cities in Bethesda games but EVERYWHERE instead of just a few select cities with barren wastes in between like a real world has might be incredible and be the last game I play for the rest of my life.

But that's not currently possible and all we can do right now is the fake BS where everything is empty but the map is BIG.
