    [​IMG]Destructoid's ELEX preview:

    ELEX is odd and janky, but totally open Do whatever you want
    Breath of the Wild has given me a whole new appreciation for open-world games. I love the amount of freedom you have in tackling the quest (or not bothering with it) and the order in which you can tackle it. While games like Grand Theft Auto and the more recent Elder Scrolls games give you snippets of that, they tend to hold your hand throughout their main questlines, which inevitably makes the player want to rebel against the set path.

    Much to my surprise, ELEX is possibly more open-ended than Zelda. You're given total freedom to explore any area of the game. If you see a distant mountain, you can travel to it. If any of the NPC's look at you wrong, you can kill them. If you feel like giving the middle finger to the main quest, go right ahead. The game world will compensate for that lack of quest giver and allow some other option for progression. That sounds an awful lot like Morrowind (except that game would just consider the quest failed).
