This is spot on for so many games

Not enough caves.
People "this game is so unrealistic, there's no way these biomes would be this close and distinct"
Also people "flying through space for weeks to visit a baren rock is so bullshit and biting"
Yes, and I love them for it. ^^
You're lucky if the game has reasonable climate progression like this. Most games the frozen zone is right next to forest zone which is right next to the volcano zone.
Name one game from the past 5 years that looks like this. Seriously. I'd like to play it.
Satisfactory. Alien planet version.
Satisfactory does it really well. You've got all those biomes (except ice?) but some areas are really three dimension or twisted up. Exploring in Satisfactory 1.0 is a real highlight in what is otherwise a very chill sanbox building game.
Breath of the Wild
Minecraft with this intensity would be fun to try.
Palworld
Monster Hunter Rise, although it's not exactly open world
Ark's Ragnarok map is almost a copy-paste of this image... I think it's older than 5 years tho.
Subnautica
Wait, no tributaries? Unplayable!
Zelda did that in the 80s
Lol in Witcher 3.
I never completed that one but had explored most of the mainland. I really need to go back and go through it all again. I loved the small details throughout the world. The wilderness and countryside was so well done, with little shrines along the roads here and there and so many lived-in places throughout. I spent 75% of my playtime with Roach set to a slow trot just so I could really absorb the world and feel like I was making a journey on those old roads. There's something so profoundly Witcher about quietly riding dark paths at night and stopping to hear a monster in the woods. You climb off Roach and draw your silver sword, then make your way into that decrepit forest to deal with whatever is going on out there.
Witcher 3 was one of the few games I 100% and didnt use fast travel... the journey was half the game.
It kept things interesting! If not realistic, it was always beautiful.
Wouldn't it be kind of boring if it was just like the great plains for 40 miles with maybe a singular river on the far side?
Far Cry to some extent.
Honestly I'd love is someone made exactly that map to play around in in a sandbox game
Just Cause 4 is the embodiment of this lol
Palworld lol
Pillars of Eternity Deadfire :D
This is how playing Pokemon Scarlett feels
Rippin off Grundo!
Meanwhile, in Star Wars:
"This is Snow World. It's all snow there. That is Wet World. The whole planet is wet. Over there is Sand World. Nothing but sand everywhere."
Behold Coruscant! The entire planet ... is a city!
Behold Umate
Coruscant's tallest mountain and the only place where the planet's surface is still visible.
That's some trivia I did not previously know, thank umate
You should watch Andor. It's an actual good star wars show. Probably because it is mostly an original story in the star wars universe.
I did not expect an absolutely savage takedown of capitalism in the middle of my Rogue One prequel. 10/10, would unionize my workplace.
Absolutely loved Andor, the tension was so thick.
I mean, that is just a sci-fi concept. Ecumenopolis.
