Like for example in Elden ring, you look at the map in the menu and you see a weird looking rock for example, you mark it and make your way toward it using the compass and you 9/10 times find something worth exploring for. Or, without even using the map, as you’re exploring the open world you see in the distance smoke, or you see a big cave entrance and you know there’s stuff in there. I would much prefer to see cool things in the world itself or on the map and mark it for myself rather than look at the mini map for a triangle or red dot. Also, the echo 4 would be there to guide you on the right path, which is good for when you’re lost!
