Game World

Game World
A game world is an artificial universe which the game is set and built within. This game world can be completely fictional or can be based on a real time and place. For example, a game like Destiny is created on a fictional world where there are guardians protecting Earth from external attacks from other planets, whereas a game like Assassins Creed: Unity is set within the 1800s during the French Revolution. Moreover, all games will bet set in different worlds and they will not coincide. It is relatively crucial for game designers to get the game world set accurately, due to the the fact that a game world virtually determines the potential of the game. To entice a player into playing their game, designers must be able to design the game world so it is appeals to the player throughout the game. The game world includes terrain, architecture and objects. Additionally, the game worlds have improved significantly over time. It is clear two see from the two images below of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City(2002) and Grand Theft Auto: 5(2014) that there is a significant difference is graphics. For example, characters within the more recent games look more realistic and the terrain looks more detailed.
