Darmik 01/07/18 5:56:34 PM #20:	I think it's needed for games like GTA or anything in a condensed city. Not sure how you can avoid it. Breath of the Wild doesn't really need one since the world has a lot of visual markers in the overworld that you can follow. You can easily learn the layout of villagers and NPC's too. I remember this style being compared to how Disneyland is designed. You don't need a map in that park because you can always look for the landmarks. That is probably the ideal model for an open world game but I don't think it would fit most of them. --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:893608601] in How do you...
