An open world game with loading screens between locations is like toll booths every mile on a highway. More locations doesn't mean much if getting there is the same slog it currently is.

Yeah. What we need is more locations in the same worldspace.

That qualifier is important.

This is why I'll never understand people who get excited about news like "We have over 1000 planets!"

Spend all that time and effort making like, 15 really complete, kick ass ones in the same physical space that I can explore instead.
