I absolutely hate games with
- quest markers
- minimaps with breadcrumbs
- maps with 100000 icons
- giant 3D arrows showing me where to go

Fuck devs assuming I have 50 IQ.

With that out of the way, are there ANY based games that will have me be like pic related?

If you actually enjoy being lost and confused, I would recommend Kingdom Come 2. The last time I played that, I rage quit and uninstalled because the game asked me to find a birch tree and I had no idea what it looked like.

Fucking kek. They're the ones with white bark, city slicker.

Even in hard-core? Or is that just no player marker

>>729653532
Only if you play on pussy mode.

No idea. I'm fine with markers. Normal is enough.

How do you not know what birch looks like

I love getting lost. It's like a mystery you figure out only instead of "who stole the" or "who killed" it's "where am I". Eventually one piece fits into another and the map snaps together like a jigsaw in your head. When I get somewhere new it's the first thing I do.

Thief 1 and 2
Gothic series
Arx Fatalis
Technically Morrowind but Morrowind is shit so play at your own peril

It's a real fucking shame how normalized magical maps and quest markers have become. They have such a massive impact on how a game feels to play, and all because normies legitimately want to turn their brains off when they play videogames.

the ONLY game ever made that worked like this was Tibia, which is an mmo, but has since long been ruined by this crap. you used to have to collect books (which only spawned once per map save) and solve riddles, learn the orc language and at least half the times it was a dead end, but it was glorious

you can also turn off quest markers in Dishonored, since the game was originally designed to work without them.

Play MUDs.
Most of them are older than you and cater to people who actually want to explore and try things.
Discworld MUD is kino.
