I predict that that will be...unpopular.

3mins after release...nexus mod....minimap

If that's the case then that's fine. It gives gamers agency over how they experience the games they pay for.

This is shaping up to be a hell of a good release

I've recently been disabling minimaps in games that let me.... hell of a good idea, makes the game way more immersive and fun to navigate.

That being said, it does require a certain mindset that using a minimap doesn't. You need to be willing to take things slow, take in your surroundings, and really look. I recognize that most people don't like going that slow and so minimaps are useful. I hope that they've taken that into consideration with this decision.
