This comment kind of reminded me of a YouTube channel I completely adore. AnyAustin (https://www.youtube.com/@any_austin) has quite a few videos exploring and celebrating open world video games.

Also related, YouTube channel Shesez https://youtube.com/@boundarybreak

Explores what’s outside the bounds in video games.

For example:

Off Camera Secrets | Goldeneye (N64) - Boundary Break https://youtu.be/Reaz4aKYci8
