Immersion is hardly a fallacy.

Having a map did not tell you exactly where you were in the zone.
Sure it did.

You still have to do this with this program. Never ever did the jagged pattern though.

The huge difference is that if a monster ATTACKS you, then you don't have time to stop at all. You can't just click a button and see exactly where you are and how to get straight to the zoneline, while avoiding other areas with aggro threats.
Um... yeah, you can.

Nor could you just click a button and see exactly where your party members are, so that if you get separated you can immediately find them without any threat of being caught alone.
You could.

There is a massive difference. Also, 2000 is not 1999.
This game assumes 2000, not 1999. The Kunark era is nearly gone. Velious is upon us. That's 2000!
