It's not that you couldn't go there to begin with but you need more men and supplies, which means you need to collect more wealth beforehand. With each part of the world you discover, you gain access to larger regions further away from home. You do all that while surviving the harsh environments with seasons that change each bringing with them a different set of challenges, fighting wildlife and tribespeople, finding food and water and trying not to die of dysentery. Even if youre not a total sucker for old episodes of Doctor Who like I am.

Then by conversing with different people you get quests, which may be to follow the steps of the previous explorers that never came back and find out what happened, find treasures, compose an accurate map, find contact with unknown native tribes and 'export' religion or simply be the first to disover a piece of the world. Or if you know a bit of coding, you can build mods that create entirely new. You start out in a town where you first have to assemble your party from the tavern, plan out and buy equipment you need from the supply store and get yourself a ship. So, what is this game about? Well it's a turn based exploration game with some RPG elements where you lead a party of pioneers each with different professions, skills and attributes.
