Over 68 hours in to my attempt at forging a tale grander than any Homer ever wrote, I have become an Olympic champion, hunted down and destroyed every member of a secret cult, dueled with the likes of Medusa and the Minotaur, saved democracy, and fetched countless herbs and animal pelts for random villagers. The last major cutscene has played following completion of the final of the 3 major quest lines, yet there are still places in the massive 230 km2 map that I will never set foot on.
