Even the “big map” thing is done better by other companies at this point.
There’s basically one loading screen in KCD2 (besides pure fast travel) and it’s between the two giant maps in the game. Otherwise, you can walk Henry’s silly ass from one end of the map to the other and go into any number of buildings and never see a loading screen.
And most games do this type of asset streaming now, so when Bethesda rolls up with a “open world” RPG with loading screens all over the place it’s like “what is this?”

But can I loot endless amounts of garbage and then force shopkeepers to buy all of it? Because that’s kinda why I play them
Yep.
Have you tried KCDII? Stuff to hoard/sell is everywhere, albeit a bit more realistically.
I mean, sure, you can put 1,000 sandwiches in one room and put a bucket over the shop keeper to fool them.
But after you do that once is it really that fun?
Yes
