Why don't you imagine using a sensible control scheme?

>play early 3D games on DOS
>most camera controls are inverted by default
>get comfortable with it
>time passes, more normies get into vidya
>non-inverted becomes more standard
>get comfortable with it
>now at a point where I'm so comfortable with both, I'm comfortable with neither
I feel like this is a microcosm of every dichotomy in my life.

>>3867274
>sensible control scheme
what do you mean?
>>3867276
are you comfortable or not, what¿?

Yup, I grew up before mouselook, using ALT to strafe, etc. when I was a kid I preferred inverted mouse for a while, and I remember in the late 90s shooter era I was still doing some weird hybrid of inverted mouselook + arrow keys instead of WASD. At some point I just dropped it and went to non-inverted mouse and WASD like everyone else.

>>3866990 (OP)

>>3866990 (OP)
Morrowind would be a good choice.

>>3867343
I still don't like playing DOOM with mouse unless it's in a source port, and I prefer the original.

>>3867355
no, too schizoid
>>3867386

thanks, googling those

>>3867691
There aren't any. After reading through the replies I can safely say that there is no single game that meets your criteria left. The few games that do like skyrim, fallout, stalker, cyberpunk etc you either played already or you are too picky to play.
My advice? Expand your taste in games or find a new hobby entirely because you will find nothing but disappointment with your current approach.

eat shit and tell me more games immediately

>>3867803
I told you. There are no games. You need to find out what you are going to do instead of playing in the meantime because it will be long few years before you will see any good game you like.

>>3866990 (OP)
breath of the wild's pretty good about that actually
You do the 15 minute tutorial and then from that moment on you're very free to just pick a direction and go explore, and there's lots of open, natural spaces to go and wander. The game's great at giving you the "oh there's something in the distance over there, I want to go explore and see what that is" feeling.
"You see that mountain?" but actually delivering on it

>>3866990 (OP)
Horizon's Gate with prominence's mod pack, shit is soul and sauce overload

>I imagine the cam like at the end of a pole, and im grabbing it from the other end

>>3867642
We've given you so many options and you completely lack even the creativity to vary your negative reactions.
Why don't you try killing yourself so you can immediately begin exploring absolute infinity?

>>3867956
>I imagine the cam like at the end of a pole, and im grabbing it from the other end
She is helpful, is she not?

Definitely Breath of the Wild.

>>3866990 (OP)
Kingdom Come Deliverance.
In hardcore mode, you are not positioned on the map, and have to rely on surroundings.

>>3867957
>Why don't you try killing yourself so you can immediately begin exploring absolute infinity?
too boring, gimme open world games, NOW

>>3867993
how about tears of the kingdom..?

Silly Tavern. Go anywhere, do anything.

>>3867084
'Inverted' was just 'normal' from inception of moving around camera views. It was only after NPCs became the main audience that this level of abstraction was too much for them and normal changed to inverted.

>>3868109
this, fuck low IQ retarded zoomers

>>3867955
interesting, im playing it right now, but what the fuck with the controls???
half of the time I must press all randomly because it doesnt explain shit about anything

>>3868055
Same game. Different patch.

>>3867084
Maybe you're an NPC and you simply lack the ability to visualize your controller as an extension of the camera.

>>3867642
Enshrouded. But it's early access, and half the game is block building.

Huge world, very pretty, but most of the map's locked behind instakill red zones until you do the correct boss fights and base upgrades.

>>3866990 (OP)
Crystal project

>>3868227
thanks
>>3868228
yeah great game, played it a lot and then I got kinda stuck and lost interest

>>3868055
By being a direct sequel, it does come with "issues" for this specific aspect. There's less exploration because well, you've technically been everywhere already.
It works well as an expansion to breath of the wild, but it's not going to have the same feel as the first one simply by virtue of not being first.

>>3867642
Underrail has great exploration, the game is pretty huge

>>3866990 (OP)
Classic runescape

>>3866990 (OP)
Exile: Escape From The Pit

>>3868051
Red Dead Redemption 2 is comfy as fuck. Nothing like riding through rugged mountains, plains, swamps and hunting everything that lives there. Tame a horse, hunt a bear, cook it, eat it, go to town, get a few brews, play some poker, brawl a woman's rights activist, lasso her and drag her behind your horse for a mile, sleep, eat, repeat.

>>3867792
Skyrim certainly won in this category.

>>3867853
>a direction and go explore, and there's lots of open, natural spaces to go and wander.

It looks so empty and washed out tho

>>3868452
yup....but I want to play with a gamepad and aiming its a cmplete fucking joke, what the actual fuck were they thinking!?

>>3868452
>>3868554
btw I resumed my playthrough on Witcher 3 after 80 hours, dude that game is literally the GOAT hands down, still exploring and findint stuff, and didnt even reached the Wine expansion, that looks beautiful from what I could see, damn, Im sure they will fuck up Wicther 4 HARD, no way is as good as 3

>>3868471
BotW is better than Skyrim by a significant margin.

>>3867642

>devs still refusing to add an option to invert both cam axis for no reason
I hope they die in a fire

>>3869263
Are you trolling or can you seriously not figure out how to.

>>3869299
you can only invert one camera axis in the options
they should die in a fire NOW

>>3866990 (OP)
I don't think I've ever encountered an open-world game with particularly good exploration.

>>3866990 (OP)
Fuck Open Asshole james which are designed to do nothing but blueball your creative imagination to ADVENTUREEEEE

Youre not gonna enjoy shit with that shit brain of yours. Just play Hauntii instead, and open your mind to better games than "fuck runs around here and there whos too stupid too understand that the central joy of ""open nothingness james"" is inhabiting the atmosphere and taking in all of the details, but dis nigga jwanna look-im-running-around ass game
Play something that will help you not be who you are right now and maybe there will be some pussy for you down the road

>>3866990 (OP)
Arx Fatalis, Gothic, Might and Magic 6.

>>3869854
seek help, you actually need medication
>>3869864
thanks

>>3869896
If you play Gothic, also play Gothic 2 and 3. Maybe Risen and Elex as well.

And if you play Might and Magic 6, might as well play 7 and 8. Just don't mess with 9, trust me.

I would also like to add one more game: Wizardry 8. It's an open world, non-linear turn based CRPG with tons of depth and replayability. Highly recommend it.

>>3869929
>Elex
is it good?
is the world huge filed with secrets?

Just play some gachashit like genshin and wuwa for free. Explore the world and do the puzzles then uninstall. That's what I did.

Goldilocks thread.

>>3873706
That's because you're used to closely packed maps with markers.
One of the wonders of Sable is you're not given direction and every discovery actually feels like a discovery. It's a game about freedom, exploration and discovery, and in that it excels.

And I didn't want to post spoilers.

Black Souls

>>3873778
ok gonna check

>>3873778
>no combat
sick of these lazy s0i devs

>BEST OPEN WORLD GAMES WHERE YOU CAN JUST GET LOST AND EXPLORE
>>3873960
I don't see combat in the criteria.

Caves of Qud

>>3874121
It's not so that is fair but don't you find it boring otherwise? Some kind of threat is usually nice in gaming. If I wanted to really explore I would go outside.
