10 Open-World Games Built Around Player Curiosity, Not Objectives

These open-world games are best enjoyed with a mindset of curiosity and a thirst for adventure, instead of expecting a list of tasks.

What To Expect From Hytale In Early Access

The developers have been very clear, including when purchasing the game, that there will be bugs at launch, and players should expect a game that is still in development. However, if players believe they will enjoy the core gameplay loop of exploring procedurally generated worlds, deep combat, and creative building alongside RPG elements, then it could still be great fun both offline alone and online with friends.

It’s also worth noting that there is no controller support at launch, so if players aren’t fans of WASD controls with a keyboard and mouse, it might be best to wait.
