  I was about to dispute this, but I think its essentially correct. I for sure fall into the second camp, and while I despise the minimap bloat of a lot of newer games, I do want something that is going to guide my actions a bit. I want to like No Man’s Sky so much, but playing it feels like work. Endless tasks with no satisfaction except whatever personal pride you happen to glean from a job well done.

  There’s gotta be a sweet spot between “I dunno, do whatever” and “here’s a map of everything interesting, do it all”. I think Breath of the Wild had a okay balance, but still not great. Maybe something more like Morrowind’s “here’s verbal clues, now go figure it out” approach

  Fun fact: the studio made the movie dogshit, too. Watch the trailer for it - they filmed a bunch of scenes from the book, including the original ending, that never made it to theaters but still ended up in the trailer.

  It was mainly for homeless kids, as they were dirty and hunched over and slept under hedges. Which is like one of those un-fun fun facts

  Thats basically the premise of the Uplift series by David Brin

  I say this without doing any googling (big risk) but I’m pretty sure everyone has them - they’re the lines along which your skin originally formed in the womb. Or where your skin currently grows and migrates from. Or both. Maybe I should have googled lol
