When you say map, you mean this, right? Like the other person said, I too found myself having to look at a guide more than once, just to figure out how to get from one place to another. Even when I've been there before. This is partially due to enemy encounters, preventing you from exploring in peace and quiet, and because many areas had multiple exits. Even though I've been to Tokyo irl, and know that Roppongi is to the east of Shibuya or Ikebukuro is north of Shinjuku, that rarely helped me find my way there. Because you have to go through exit #3 from Tokyo station, and then you have to go down a tunnel and emerge on the other side, etc. |
That's precisely what prevented me from enjoying smt4. That's the worst overworld map I've seen in an rpg that I've played.
