I don't think I've sunk as much time into any other mechanic in the game as I have with the map. Especially with mods like draw on map and map symbol size changer to do fine details.
I end up using the map for everything, like to-do lists, shopping lists, route planning... I have no idea how I used to play this game before and I never want to go back.
Do you guys like the map too?
I love the map in this game, especially the fog of war, and when you look at town maps they are added to your map.
I use it mainly to keep track of places I've been and stuff I might want down the line.
