    The entire phenomenon of The Room makes me deeply uncomfortable because it feels like an elaborate joke at Tommy Wiseau's expense that everyone is in on except for Tommy Wiseau.

    Watch The Disaster Artist. It’s a shockingly compassionate portrait and was signed off on by both Tommy Wiseau and Greg Sestero (Mark, blonde lead from The Room).

    It puts the creation of the movie into context, things make a lot more sense, and you’ll feel better.

    The movie kind of (I suspect necessarily, for legal reasons) sanitizes the degree to which Wiseau was a bit of a stalkery pervoid, but I certainly don't think anyone should feel bad about laughing at The Room or at Wiseau. He's made a bunch of bank on it and has been happy to ride its wave for like a decade now.

    There’s a few horrifying scenes in the movie (casting the female roles, shooting of the first sex scene), so while it might be sanitized, it still comes through clearly enough.

    Like, Tommy is a weirdo creep but his issues are so widespread and bizarre that his stalking and creeping start to get lost.

    Horizon is the best pre-BOTW Open World Style Game that would nevertheless have been way better if it didn't bother being an open world game. Open world games that aren't Breath of the Wild suck. It stands out because the story and main character development are, almost shockingly, really good and interesting.

    I felt no need to explore and 100% the game after beating the main story, but I heard that a lot of people did, because they wanted to stay in that "world" and experience all of it. And some of the collectibles do have a historical side story attached that supports the main storyline.

    yeah I can't imagine really 100% a game like that but to go back to botw (because of course) after I beat it I stayed in it and finished a few things, though far from everything.

    Yeah sorry, broad proclamations are always a bad idea and I shouldn't make them

    It's just that, for me, the genre, as defined by Ubisoft style map-markers, is an active assault on my ability to enjoy the experience. I feel simultaneously compelled to go through the checklists while fully aware that each side-quest and inconsequential collectible is sucking away my momentum and investment in the story.

    I think every open-world game other than Breath of the Wild would be personally more enjoyable with every piece of side-content excised from the game. Seeing all that stuff there causes me to neurotically engage with it, but I think my experience would be better in every case I can think of if it just wasn't there at all.

    Oh, yeah, Ubisoft-style map vomit is awful. Totally agree there.

    Especially since Ubisoft insists on introducing you to each game with a series of pseudotutorial missions, so you're on rails for the first couple of hours... but they start showing you the map vomit while you're still on rails. You see map icons that can you can't do anything about, which just trains you to ignore them, so the map icons become even more like cognitive noise.

    What I like out of open world games are exploration and emergent gameplay. Finding secrets and treasures in unexpected locations, being able to approach a problem in multiple ways, and having small adventures that weren't necessarily scripted.

    I neither want nor need every corner of my map to be crammed with some stupid minigame.
