What open-world games on Steam have satisfying movement, like Arkham Knight or Spider-Man? (lemmy.world)

I want to grapple, glide, wall run, etc around a big open world. What are some games you think are fun for that?

I picked up Sunset Overdrive on a sale, and the rail grinding is fine I guess, but it's just not clicking with me.

Just Cause series is great for that, JC3 being an absolute joy of free movement. I used to spend hours just gliding with grappling hook and fly suit.

I saw that one thrown around when I was searching before. I wouldn't really be playing it for the story, but as long as the story's there, should I be familiar with the first two?

Honestly, there's nothing you can really miss IMO, the game presents everyone and everything in a nice and smooth way and you won't ever be lost.

anything that matters in that game is introduced or explained in it.
