    Also I got that feeling from Fallout 76 before they added all the shit npcs in recent updates. It was a barren post apocalyptic playground where you could get lost and do what you wanted. It was great, but since everyone pissed their pants crying about it they added hideous moronic npcs and quests every 5 feet and now it's your average mediocre bullshit open world garbage
    also old jrpgs

    The me the soulsborne games and Sekiro have a great adventure feel if you don't mind it being in a sad, violent, and lonely world

    On the other hand Monster Hunter World and it's expansion Iceborne felt like an adventure to me because of the weird ass world full of cool monsters, but the characters and the story aren't good, the good part is the monsters, the areas, and the gameplay.

        I think if they're able to expand on the structure Bowser's Fury had going on but with more distinct and wondrous levels they could really make a Mario game feel like an adventure again.

        People just seem to want Odyssey 2 but I think it'd be infinitely more exciting to see Bowser's Fury as a full fledged game.

    for me it was Pathfinder Kingmaker : the map mode, the main quest (taming the virgin land), the narration that looks as a classical fantasy adventure book, the little stories you engage in in various locations - it all screams ADVENTURE to me. I’m playing it blind ofc

    These threads are better at giving that adventure feel than actual games are.
    I don't think anything ever will, because looking at pictures, or just imagining it is always going to be better than playing something

      No. Ocarina of Time completely exceeded all of my expectation of what an 'adventure' could be, and no single image simply aiming at the 'impression' of an adventure could compare to that at all.

          That's on you. It's not a game that it makes sense to force yourself to play to say you have, you have to feel it and have those feelings drive your desire to discover more. If you don't get that it isn't for you.

    I get the feeling of adventure from many semi-open world RPGs like Underrail and Avernum. By semi-open I mean you can explore pretty freely but some areas are unlocked by items or quest progress, and some areas may be too difficult if you go there too early.
    Open world RPGs like Skyrim don't have the same feeling with almost everything scaling to your level so there aren't many 'extra difficult' dungeons you have to prepare for. Also this kind of open world games are quite empty.

      I dislike party-era Ys but even I have to admit Y8 was ADVENTURE as frick. Sunshine Coastline perfectly captures Adol's sentiment of "I got shipwrecked again?? FRICK YEAH!!" The story and mystery escalates in a great way and finally making your way up the Gendarme is peak Ys.

      Dragons Dogma came really close to this. Having pawns instead of real party members puts a damper on it tho and so do the lackluster sidequests and the game being generally unfinished and just kind of rushing to the conclusion when you think you should be halfway through.

      I have a vague sense of what this thread and that image is about, but it's hard to pin down. I think pic's them is a significant journey, that's difficult and has meaning. That's probably hard to get into a game.

      I basically feel Dragon's Dogma is not immersive enough for me to really feel.
      Partly it is the the nature of the pawns, which I see as an attempt to meld game logic with lore logic when they could have just said pawns were mercenaries and your main pawn is your childhood friend or something.
      Other issues are the lack of player dialogue, literally third person camera and some other elements are too "gamey".

      Gotta agree with this anon, here. Played the remakes for DQ4 and DQ5 on DS back in the day, so I had a decent idea of DQ going in, but it blew me away entirely. Depending on if you want visual fidelity of the original (which I think you have to pirate now, it's been replaced on most marketplaces) or are interested in more content (much of it is fanservice for past games, some of it tries to connect you to your party more) I would definitely recommend it for a playthrough. Travelling the world as the sky fades into night and you stumble across some ancient ruins to pilfer, or a whole new city to explore, it enthralled me for a good 100 hours at least. Just a comfy game.

    I'll make one some day. It will be like Kenshi, but with a Runescape-style aesthetic, hundreds upon hundreds of roaming recruitable followers to join your party each with their own quests and background stories and romance options, roguelike elements that generate endless different situations for near infinite replayability and a strong mix of hand-crafted and randomized geographic locations, fully simulated towns and day/night and weather cycles, survival elements and permadeath on by default, and an overarching story written with extreme care with an elaborate lore base on the level of the Legacy of Kain games. How does that sound? Am I missing anything?

    The thing is, in order for this adventure feel to actually be fulfilled, you need to not have a single idea of what you're getting yourself into or what's waiting for you in the game at any point.

    This immediately disqualifies most popular games whose gameplay format is well known, whose story is just a flimsy excuse for the game, whose world is the same rehashed stuff every time etc like From games, Zelda games, TES games, DQ games, most traditional JRPGs, modern open world games, heavily advertised games, games designed by committee, risk-averse games etc. Don't get me wrong it's possible to extract some of that feeling from these games, if you're playing the IP for the first time or you're a kid, or otherwise don't know what to expect and don't know you're about to be disappointed, but for most people on Ganker that ship has sailed.

    This means your best bet is to play old AA games you never heard of and people rarely mention, because you will be discovering everything yourself with fresh eyes. Sadly the tech for true adventure games only became available as the industry became too big for its own good, which means that an adventure game with a deserving budget and necessary tech is inherently paradoxical because it will need to appeal to the largest possible audience and advertise itself heavily in order to justify the expense. The only chance of it ever getting better is another crash, which is incredibly unlikely.

    many open world adventure games almost capture the feeling of adventure, however, personally i feel that combat feels tacked on in those games and detract or completely ruin the sense of adventure. i wish someday we can get an open world adventure game with minimal or no combat, and just focuses on exploration
