This pattern is a still a stub.
Contents
Examples
Oblivion Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas
Using the pattern
Another way of creating Illusion of Open Space is to use Secondary Interface Screens with maps for choosing Quick Travel. This since the game's interface can show that more of the Game World exists than may actually be able to visit.
Consequences
Illusion of Open Space can help support both Diegetic and Thematic Consistency, the first by not making the Game World presentation end just because the gameplay environment does and the second because many themes imply that there should be open spaces.
