Here are some things that I’d like to know when playing Skyrim and many other games: History When designing a game map, make a list of the questions the player might ask about locations. If you’re designing a game map, here are some things to think about, and my thoughts on Skyrim’s maps.
If you’re playing Skyrim and want a better map, get the Quality World Map mod to add roads to the in-game map. The map should include what’s important for gameplay: forests, not trees roads, not clouds. TL DR - the Skyrim map should include the things my character would put on a map, either by automatically marking things, or by allowing me to annotate them myself. I think a satellite view is almost never the right thing for a game map. The cloth map is hand-drawn the in-game map is computer generated. Skyrim’s cloth map is like Google Maps “map view” and the in-game map is like “satellite view”. In Google Maps, the satellite view shows the physical features like trees and rocks the map view shows the abstractions like forests and borders. Map design is not only about what’s included but what is omitted. The maps are pretty but they don’t have all the functionality I’d like to see. Game maps and Skyrim Game maps and Skyrim
