I agree on this. I’ve also been exploring around (having a great time doing so though ), trying to find some place I’ve heard about. I would certainly not have found Umber Point if it wasn’t for directions given to me by Fenrir.
A guide is nice. But can we improve the game to facilitate this better?
To find a room within an area, we have discussed a feature where the map dots are connected by lines, to make it more obvious how to travel from one room to another:
But to find areas, such as Umber Point, maybe we would need to rely on some description.
Maybe the Area could have an optional Directions field that you can fill in?
It would be manual work to keep those updated of course, but I don’t think it would be too much work. Also, instead of exact commands, you can just give general directions like:
From the terminal by Sinder’s docks, you take the ferry to Cascade Island.
