I know I'm quite late to this post, but I'm so glad that I found it. This void in reality has been chasing me across the map. It was quite the shocker initially when it showed up. I thought that it was a game error, but became less confident the more I realized that it had clearly established movement patterns and a consistent desire to nab me. I hadn't let it catch me. I've been playing for 12 hours straight, as I have two days off and wanted to binge this game. It has not disappeared, it has not relented, and no matter what I throw at it there is no stopping it. I reloaded the game and it was still there. What an absolute menace.
I'm just glad that it isn't a me thing, and that it's intentional.
