This is the amount of detail an exploration game should have.

To be fair, most action adventure games nowadays have a lot of detail put into them.  And plus, their worlds are created from the grounds up or from inspiration that doesn't have such a vast backstory as heavy metal.
 
But they have put an incredible amount of detail into this game and that's awesome.  When he first started talking about the sky I was wondering why you would talk about that, but then they showed how it could change so dramatically and I wish more games made you want to look at the sky like that.

See?  That's what I mean.  The sky isn't just a thing they put in as an afterthought, so it adds to every environment you're in.  But I'm talking about momentous, funny, interesting things to find, instead of a ton of non-interactive, samey buildings.  It's where you actually want to snoop around every corner to see what sort of expressive stuff there is.  GTA sometimes gives you that with its easter eggs, but a game like this, where anything goes, has tons of what might be considered easter eggs or hidden jokes in other games.
