I’ve wondered for a long time now why no game studios have developed any open world map game or exploring games - indie or big name studios -given that street view has existed for ten out or fifteen plus years now
Microsoft Flight Simulator lets you fly a plane anywhere in the world based on satellite images and 3D models of various cities.
I’d imagine that any other game studio would have trouble finding enough money to license the rights to satellite images or street view images from which they might build a world.
