August 5, 2025Aug 5 I had lots of fun treasure hunting in Red dead redemption 2 and Kingdome Come: Deliverance, as treasure maps had notes and/or drafts of landmarks, which I could either remenber or find by cross checking the map, without the need to ever look up a guide. You can't expect players to simply wait to stumble upon glittering ground by luck, you have to give a chance to figure it out to the ones willing to do so instead of just looking up a guide. Below my experience so far: - I was able to open the suitcase. Even thought I was actively looking for the first part of the code after finding and testing the second one., I've to admit that I found the other piece by pure luck, while I was reading a book just for fun. The loot inside was quite underwhelming... - I stumbled upon a secret mixer event (honestly, all I wanted was the milk tooth my radar was sensing) involving scorpions and rewarding you with enchanted sickles, and in the same area I noticed a glitter, which, after digging it up, revelead a locked chest. The location of the key? not a clue in the world. - The sizzling key you are provided with by progressing the story states that "it is hot and smells like cinnamon". My best guess was to head out to the BBQ area and look out for donuts (there are none). After inspecting the inside of the grill for an hour, which is quite tiresome given the constant sizzling effect and related increased thirst rate, I gave up and googled the location, and apparently the cest is below a tree in a completely unrelated area, with no traces of sizzling or cinnamon... Please don't effectively lock content behind guides.
