Josh Sawyer, the director of the acclaimed title 'Fallout: New Vegas,' has shared his thoughts on the current trend of creating excessively large video games. He emphasizes that while a grand sense of scope can enhance the gaming experience, merely increasing the size of a game without meaningful content can lead to a disappointing experience for players. Sawyer argues that many gamers do not desire titles that are significantly larger than iconic games like 'Skyrim' or 'The Witcher 3.'
According to him, the focus should be on delivering engaging and immersive content rather than expanding the game world to an impractical scale. He suggests that developers should prioritize quality over quantity, ensuring that every part of the game contributes to the overall experience. In an industry where bigger often seems better, Sawyer's insights serve as a reminder that depth and substance are crucial for creating memorable gaming experiences.
