I feel like there should be a thing that automatically closes every door that's been open for a while. Similar to how locked doors shut again automatically, but this would last more like 5 minutes.
This may seem minor, but several times I've been exploring and suddenly I see a door that's already open. This makes me realize that people have already been where I am, and makes my discovery seem less special (of course I know that probably every corner of the map has been scrutinized, but still it messes up my excitement in the moment).
This can also take away some of the challenge of exploration. It's as if all you have to do it follow the trail of open doors in an area and you'll find what you're looking for. This may be nice for some but to me it just defeats the purpose of finding your way somewhere.
And finally (And probably the biggest thing) having all the doors be open all the time just makes the world feel empty and abandoned. It feels like nothing changes since you were in a spot the day before. granted it likely hasn't had anything happen but still. Like why would the train conductor just let the door on the passenger car stay open. or why would all the bathroom doors be open at all times.
Tl;dr: It's annoying that doors don't close automatically for two reasons. Finding an open door makes the discovery on the other side seem less special, and having so many doors just open for no reason makes the world feel abandoned.
Idk maybe this whole thing doesn't make sense. plz let me know if you agree. thanks for reading
