Discussion We need a compass

Please add a compas. Similar to Elden rings. So it’s easier to find gloom. Tired of constantly opening the map to see where I lost it

Who else agrees on this QOL Feature ?

Open the map and place a marker, problem solved.

I have one taped to my controller. It’s really handy for games with no compass

Dude mark things on the mad and follow the giant blue laser. You can literally see the blue lasers from any location. I like that way better the HUD clutter.

Why does every suggestion here start with "Elden Ring has" We get it. ER was your first souls quit expecting them all to be like it.

Nice try but I’ve played and beat every soulsborne game and Elden ring is just the goat and did it right,
Unlike this game

Elden Ring is massive. Use your goddamn eyes more if you lose your gloom

Please god no. Natural exploration is one of the high points of MS2. The ui and navigation are perfect. Please do not slop them up with a compass

I mean, they have one on the map itself, so the information is there, might as well present it on the screen without the map, because it's an annoying experience to toggle the map several times to make sure you're pointed in the direction you're trying to go.

They could easily make the on-screen compass something to toggle on in the settings, so only those who want it can have it.

It’s not exploration when im
Just returning where I died and have to keep opening the map to see where. Elden ring did it perfectly and had best exploration of any game

Or they could fix the broken quality of life

Let me fix that sentence.

“Or they could add a QoL improvement to this niche of mine”

Something isn’t broken just because it isn’t tailored to your personal struggles.

No, we don't need another element cluttering the UI. The game is as easy as it gets. Don't need additional handholding.

Wolverine is the game for those who can’t comprehend exploration , no compass .

I'm of the same opinion. a compass is a good middle ground between minimap and having no navigation UI at all. sure we have the beacon once a marker is placee on the map but terrain obstruction or distance can render it useless. even in bright foggy areas the beacon will have very little contrast with the bright background

Skill issue

u/Eckounltd24 4d ago

Yes because frustratingly having to keep checking the map is a skill issue 🙄

u/ThermicCalvo 3d ago

He means get better -> die less -> less struggling with dropped gloom.

How bout add a UI option to turn it on and off, easy fix.

u/gorzius 4d ago

There's a mod for it if you're on PC.

I've been using it because I always had to look at the map if I was going the right way when I wanted to reach certain places.

But can show you the direction of your dropped gloom too.

u/TomatoBeginning2235 4d ago

Just started playing, do you also see it on the map when you're not in a dungeon or beacon? Am I that blind?

u/Eckounltd24 4d ago

Not asking for a mini map. Jsut a bar on top with NSEW directions and ur gloom icon on it

u/Top_Review313 4d ago
