Open World?

[Rekt.]

Is this game open world, or are there just different, large 'Zones'?

[Y Ddraig Ddu]

The latter, but they are quite large "zones."

[supertrooper225]

This is an open world game for all intents and purposes. The zones are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ huge.

Are there many zones? Or a few?

[Y Ddraig Ddu]

Few. Two major ones, two minor ones.

Two big zones and two smaller ones, like ydraig said.

And when I say big....I mean BIG ASS ZONES.

There are two large zones, two medium ones and one small one. All in all, the complete world of Witcher 3 can be considered to be quite large, you will have a lot to discover.

This game has several open worlds, called zones... ;-).

[FM Helldiver Radio]

There is one mainzone = the world
plus
another zone with a group of islands (you have to travel by ship to get there)
these two are really big and you spend most of the time there.


Then there is a prologe-zone with a village but you only visit it in the begining. you can go back there when ever you want, but it doesn´t make much sense.

another zone is the emperors palace, used for 2 or 3 scenes. you also can visit it whenever you want.

Last zone is the witchers homecastle with it´s suroundings. Some quests take place there and it has to be a different zone, as it is far away from the country the mainstory happens.

Oh, I'd forgotten about Vizima. Don't forget about a certain isle that's technically off of any of the main maps either ;).

So in total there are: 2 LARGE zones, 1 medium-sized zone (tutorial land), 2 small zones (Kaer Morhen and a certain "isle") and one TINY zone, the palace in vizima.

It's awesome how people bent over backwards to be able to keep calling W3 open world.

Look, I'm far from a CDP-R fanboy but even I have zero compunction calling the game an open world. Velen/Novigrad alone is bigger than Skyrim...

Why not? Sure it has zones, but Velen in itself is completely open and larger than other open worlds I've seen. Sure there's a loading screen between Velen and Skellige, but TES games have loading screens for every indoor area.

It definitely is an open world game. It's also very much a story-driven game and, unlike TES games for example, is not really a sandbox game.

It is more open world than skyrim in case you forget... And I hear no one complaining about skyrim. It's open world because one zone is completely open without any loading screens and a zone is bigger than some other rpgs.

Open world and loading screens are disconnected. Open world means you can access every part of the world in any order. Witcher 3 is open world, but not the best example because you constantly need to "unlock" new areas.
