DaxGamer - "Gamers have all sorts of tastes. Some of us can't wait for the next yearly iteration of our favorite sports game, and others can't seem to pry their eyes from their TV screens as they incessantly play Call of Duty through the night. The gaming industry is so full of creative ideas and choices, and we, as gamers, are very fortunate for this. But, if you're like me, you like creating your own chaos, your own story, and your own experience a little more than linear games with point A to point B levels back and forth. In light of this, I've compiled a list of my favorite open-world/sandbox games."
The freedom to explore large areas, approach objectives in multiple ways, and stumble across amusing distractions will always be an excellent format for video games, but some do it better than others. To celebrate the formula and parse the best from the best, have a look at the best open-world games of all time so far.
The developers of Lordbound increased the scope as they became more familiar with the Creation Kit and got inspired by the original Skyrim.
Based on one narratively fitting ending in Mass Effect 3, Prothean squadmate Javik is highly unlikely to return in the next Mass Effect game.
He was one of my least favorite characters. I wish they would have done the Proths different.
I was hoping some great game I haven't heard of but no. The link above is broke, should be:

Mass effect 3 at 3, mass effect 2 at 2? wow id of had san andreas/red dead above them for sure.
They're also missing Just Cause 2. That is honestly the most underrated open world game of this generation. It has it's faults, but not many games are that fun.
No Minecraft?
No San Andreas?
Terrible List.
Bullshit list. People above me have already pointed out the errors.
