  Honestly it’s just stupid how few good open world fantasy games exist.

  At least Elden Ring exists.

    I feel like you could put on a blindfold, click around a few times on Steam and end up picking an open world fantasy game.

        The definition of “good” can be adjusted, depending on how desperate you are.

        That said, I m against sacrificing my standards when it comes to paid things, I want to get what I paid for, and definitely back the people praising BG3 and want games of that caliber now that Larian has shown everybody that it’s possible.

    What’s your jank tolerance like? If “moderate to high”, Mount & Blade or Outward might scratch the itch for you. If you’re up for post apocalyptic ronin shenanigans with more of a strategy feel, Kenshi might be enjoyable. Technically, Noita is an open-world fantasy game. It’s really hard (I’m really bad), but I love it nonetheless.

    Going more mainstream there’s shedloads of mods for classics like Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim to update graphics, mechanics, or just new content. Witcher 3 is still really good, too.

        It’s not fantasy though, it’s mostly historical.
