a fascinating question posed by a friend of mine: would you rather
obviously these are poorly-specified and each could range from "largely useless" to "extremely powerful" depending on which games you pull from, but assume that whatever power level you choose to imagine for one is matched by the other
"double jump is so impractical," you'll all say, but what if I need it to cancel fall damage
exactly this, it would make so many things much safer to do. like using ladders
i think the value of double jump depends on whether you can buffer inputs
Double jump easily because a phone can't achieve it.
Double jump for sure. My internal map is already pretty good but my double jump is currently extremely bad
I think I could develop a better sense of direction, or just buy (and get better at reading) maps. I'm pretty sure I can't learn how to double jump.
Given how rarely I even single jump, and how often I consult a map, I think the map is the clear winner for general usefulness.
Double jump sounds really fun though
would you like a watch or is this more an adhd thing (I wear a watch and it is nice if not more helpful than a phone)
adhd i guess, but mostly just having a constant source of lookup-less time would be nice.
mini map but i'd like it to be like mgs style where i can see other people as dots and their vision cones too and keep ghosts from sneaking up on me
Honestly I don't feel like I'd be nimble enough to make double jump worth it, so mini map; I tend to get lost easily xD
The double jump would be a lot of fun, but I know I would wind up hurting myself real bad with it, so I'm gonna choose mini-map
Double jump, easily. It feels like it’d enable all sorts of fun shenanigans, let me get to places most people ordinarily can’t, whereas the minimap feels like it’d just get in the way of mini-adventures that come from getting mildly lost.
Minimap, 100%. To all those people saying "your phone already has a minimap," yeah, and I use it. My single-jump sucks, I never use it, stapling a second one on top isn't going to change the meta.
i already basically have a minimap all the time, its just in my hand instead of my head. for me thats just about as good, so i'd take the double jump
forgot about my phone but the minimap in my head is good and very satisfying to contribute to.
a double jump would be very fun and so practical (what if I need to scale a 6 foot wall really quickly to rob a bank or escape another bank robber, things that definitely happen regularly)
