I cant believe you didnt mention the sheer vastness of Hoth. I remember walking out there so far before ever having the leaving battlefield warning. It was so white and on my ps2 the sky turned pink and purple weirdly if you walked out too far.

I always found it fascinating that you can go outside the hangars on Polis Masa and chill out on the asteroids surface with the literal unending abyss of space above you while tanks cruise around the surface. You would suffocate and die as a rebel, clone, or stormtrooper (naturally) but the droids were immune, so you could spend the entire match as a hunk of metal just vibing out in space

Sometimes me and my friends would play tag in the free roam mode or just dick around and explore... I'm a little biased but that series would made for some great exploration (especially Unleashed and Untamed, the older ones)

I believe you can walk underwater infinitely when you play as a droid, so that can be useful to explore certain areas. Also, there is a glitch I found as a kid that gets you behind some collision in the Bespin: Cloud City map. It is by the random ammo droid hidden down a hallway between the forward flank and chamber Command Posts.

Mos Eisley has a number of these places from my recollection. The first is a wall near the awkard alleyway to nothing. With a force jump or a jet pack, you can get out of the map into a courtyard. The other is there is a place where you can exit the entire map and explore the unrendered city, but you can only use Aayla Secura or another Jedi that has a similar jump attack. Use it at a specific corner of a building and you're there. Learned of that one from a random KZfaq video from probably more than a decade ago

Interestingly, many of these liminal spaces come from maps in Battlefront II that were ported over from the original Battlefront. The original game has a lot more maps that feature liminal spaces like these ones, such as the Kamino map (which is one huge room and then dozens of isolated landing pads) and Rhen Var Harbor and Rhen Var Citadel are both snowy, icy wastelands with lots of isolated spots. One of my favourite maps in the original game is Naboo: Plains, which looks like the default Windows XP desktop background

My theory with the first spot was that it was either supposed to be a second path of Endor to be populated with at least 1 command post but didn't balance well OR it's an alternate path for a speederbike rote/race. There minute evidence that BF1 was going to have a race mode but was cut early in dev. Me and my friends still would race that track early on. Spawn as rebels quick, rush to speedbikes, first person in the bunker wins. No other rules. Great fun. Tatooine sands had a race "route" as did Kashyyk Islands

An possible oversight by devs, then again they didn't expect anyone to look at this map edge buildings with magnifying glass. They prob put texture with transparency on windows onto 'building', and behind a buildings side (wall) they added a plane (looks like a sheet of paper in 3d space) with yellowish texture. They prob forgot to add another to the side. But yeah, it's how it's done when u need to work with limited ps2 specs. The whole 'building' has at most 20 polygons.

I've always liked games that don't try and restrict your movement around the game world, including the places that weren't intended to be visited. I did this a lot with the Battlefront games and Halo CE and 2 as a kid. Most games now days put up invisible barriers, even in places that seem like they should be apart of the game space.

In a town filled with horrors and monsters trying to kill you there's alleyways, side streets, and even entire buildings that seemingly serve no purpose since there's nothing scary or little to no plot things to get/encounter and they've always stood out to me Regardless I love this series and can't wait for the next one.

i might have commented this before but I remember Perfect Dark having many odd unremarkable places, some crazy skyboxes and lots of things to look at in the levels "off in the distance". The very first moment of the first level drops you on top of a building where you can look around at a blade runner type city with flying cars around that you can shoot and blow up. Also each level has a piece of cheese (cut out of a cheese wheel) hidden somewhere, usually in an unremarkable place

Another one for your list - Hoth, in normal instant action/conquest mode, still has the back-hanger/hunt region loaded in. Meaning, if you climb over Echo Base from the normal snowspeeder section and avoid the "Leaving Battle" warnings in the right direct path, you'll find the "other half" of Echo Base where the hunt map technically takes place. You'll notice in Echo Base that the bridges inside the bunker are broken/impassable, so the only way to access this "secret area" is to climb over the entire base itself. Very eerie feeling back there because the rest of the battle continues to stay loaded in/ongoing, yet you can walk around that entire section with no issues. It's odd to me that they didn't block it off entirely, but you essentially only play on half of the map space in BF2 - that back section stays there the entire time.

I am reminded of playing World of Warcraft around 2006/2007, just before purchasing the first expansion. I put off buying it for a while, so when I went up north of the undead city, I ended up in an entirely different place than my friend who ended up in the blood elf lands. There's a whole empty peninsula up there that you can swim all the way around if you're careful, and that whole area with all of the map data ceases to exist if you buy an expansion pack. Weird feelings about my memories of making that swim for no reason in a world only I could see in an MMO.

Dude WoW is FULL of odd and unremarkable places, at least from when I remember it. Idk how it is now, but back when my brother and I played which was right around Cataclysm so many places give kind of a liminal/lonely/nostalgic feeling. Before my bro and I got subscriptions we played on one of those hacked free servers that don’t have a lot of players, and I remember we were swimming in the ocean trying to circumvent a higher-level zone. It took us at least 30 minutes of swimming in this weird place on the outskirts of all these mountains jutting out that were supposed to be the borders of Stormwind or something. In general the way the regions in WoW are designed with the mountain boundaries is strange but necessary ig, it kind of harkens back to the unique time in gaming when it was released. There’s just something kind of emotionally provocative about it, especially when it’s 2 am and you’re wandering around alone in the middle of nowhere with no other players around.

This reminds me of how I've played old Command and Conquer games and will send units to explore every corner of the map. Sometimes you find some interesting stuff.

So glad I found this, I totally remember getting lost in Bespin. Tons of N64/early 3D games were like that too

my favorite maps to explore was the outsides of Polis Massa and Hoth. I always turned on invincibility and then took a vehicle as far as i could before reaching a black hole. Exploring was always such a fun thing to do on this game.

I love finding these sorts of places in games. I definitely used to seek them out a lot more as a kid without even really grasping that I was searching liminal spaces. I still do it a bit now and there's something cathartic about it.

Hoth has so many tunnels to explore. But how many of you remember making custom battles where it was creatures versus humans? Wampas vs Rebels or Ewoks vs Clone Snipers or Tusken Raiders vs the clones, the Wookiees vs clones, etc That was so cool, unexpected, and unique 😅

As a child, I found a way to clip outside of the map in my house in Toon Town, and it became my mission to invite strangers to my house and show them the splendor of the void. It was almost impossible to explain my intentions using the in-game chat system, so I’d basically just go “yay!” And then put myself between a wall and a bookcase and disappear. At least once someone came with me out there and we jumped around shouting excited phrases as the house grew more and more distant. I felt like I knew an important secret. Exploring beyond the intended space gives you the same feeling as getting to know someone and seeing the parts of them that aren’t perfect, presentable, constructed. If you really like the thing or person you are seeing behind the curtain of, it only deepens your appreciation for them. Anyway. Good video.

This game was my childhood -- I made my first online friends on X-fire playing this game. I spent countless hours on those maps and learning about fun glitches. And yet you've still managed to find places I'd never bothered really looking, because they're so unremarkable.

I remember playing an old Fan-made map for Battlefront 1. It was a ship battle map, where you were supposed to get in to Tie-Fighters or X-Wings and fight, but you could land on the bottom of the starry skybox. It was really odd to get out of my ship and walk around on sky texture. 10/10 map design btw.
