Reviewing Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen's Seamless Open World vs. Instancing

The developers of Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen have a monthly live show called Parting the Veil, where they outline design decisions about various topics. This month's episode was about the seamless open world of Pantheon, which is a hotly debated stance among the community. As usual, I waited to watch it and stream my reaction, so we can pause and discuss as we go. This is the recording of that #Twitch stream.

With nearly two decades of extensive gaming experience and a degree in psychology, I seek insight into why people play games, how to excel at them, and more importantly, how lessons learned while gaming can be used to improve our real life. I've brought this perspective to Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen, a deeply cooperative and challenging #MMORPG currently in development. I started following the game closely in 2016, and in 2017, I became the first fan to ever play #PantheonMMO. In 2018, I launched the BazgrimTV Twitch channel, where I was part of the first group of broadcasters to stream live gameplay of #Pantheon without a developer. Ever since then, I've been on the journey of a lifetime and enjoy sharing all of my findings and adventures with fans from around the world! This YouTube channel is where you can find recordings of my gameplay streams, news coverage, exclusive developer interviews, commentary, vlogs, and more!
