for me mine are 1. Elden Ring, 2. RDR2 3. BOTW, all because they genuinely blew my mind when playing them for the first time and changed how I saw and played video games.

    Unfortunately it’s a thing when going back to older games after being living in the map marker era for so long. This is a big part of why games back then came with annotated maps so you’d at least have a reference for all the locations.

    I’d say at the minimum, don’t be afraid to pull up maps and take notes.

      For me it is not even having a quest log. Some sidequests are just someone hinting something could or should be done.

      Jeez, this is totally it!

      Thanks for putting it in simpler words for me 😅

      Definitely gonna check in taking notes.
