It's the immersion. When you logged onto Everquest in 1999 and walked outside of your starting city, you would often have no idea where you were.

Even after you learned a certain area, it was easy to become disoriented. Especially at night. You felt like you were truly living IN an epic fantasy world.
And that was the case for about... an hour. Then you went and got a map or 3.
