    I think they’re just talking about the game being open world in a full planet that you can clearly see is a planet and is large and diverse enough to actually feel like a full planet.

    Still not the first at that either. Valheim for example is a round planet and open world and has several biomes. But there the world isn’t really impressive, so maybe that’s what they are trying to be the first of?

    Based on the trailer they are clearly trying to be the first game to actually achieve something but it’s hard to define what that something really is.

        Oh I must’ve got it confused with some other game then, I could swear the world map was presented as a globe.

        Haha wow seriously? I played that game a lot but never actually bothered to sail to the edges of the map…

            Yup. I remember messing around with some mod once that let you find gear with a bunch of cool, random enchantments on them. I ended up finding some pants that let you walk on water… was pretty silly just running across oceans, but it actually led me to explore more of the world then I would have bothered to do otherwise.
