I frequently find myself debating whether to google an item’s location or side quest steps. A lot of times, I try to avoid it as long as I can until I eventually give in after exploring an area for hours. But I always feel a little guilty after. But then I’m like, these games are so damn cryptic, I’d have to spend the rest of my life uncovering all the secrets without google.

Thoughts?

    Funny because I was pondering on the same dilemma with Silksong lately.

    I like to try to find stuff and discover things on my own. I love the feeling of going blind in a game and googling stuff often leads to you being spoiled some aspects of the game. However, when I spend 2 hours finding nothing new and reexploring three times the whole map without anything coming up, that’s when I google stuff. Even then though I will keep it as short as possible as to continue the rest on my own.
