Modern games are obsessed with telling you exactly where to go, but what did we lose along the way? In this video, we explore the lost art of getting lost in games and why older RPGs and MMOs felt more immersive, memorable, and meaningful because they didn’t hold your hand. From minimaps and quest markers to fast travel and constant UI guidance, we break down how modern navigation systems changed the way players explore game worlds; and why convenience may have come at the cost of discovery.
We’ll talk about how getting lost helped players build mental maps, form stronger memories, create emergent stories, and even foster social interaction in classic games like old-school MMOs and RPGs. This isn’t about nostalgia for nostalgia’s sake, it’s about understanding how design choices shape player behavior, immersion, and long-term attachment to virtual worlds.
If you’ve ever finished a massive open-world game and realized you barely remember the map… this video is for you.
