3:22 I couldn’t agree more with what Ludwig said about the evolution of Geoguessr as a game. Even just a year ago the majority of players were the GeoWizrd archetype just learning about cultures and using that knowledge to make educated guesses. I just got back into Geoguessr a month ago and even some silver ranks are pouring over meta spreadsheets so they can make instant guesses the second they see that iconic Portugal electrical pole, or Spanish bollards on the side of the road. Worse yet, I see people now making guesses based on true meta like what shape the google car blur is, or how big it is, or what colour the blur of the car is. It’s still fun casually, but at the upper level it’s not fun at all if you’re like GeoWizard and just want to learn more about landscapes and cultures.

The speedrunning aspect of geoguesser has made the concept of "Good from a far, but far from good." become the golden rule. But most of these players clearly struggle to find the actual location, even if given plenty of time to search. Since they never practiced looking for such clues.

This is interesting, Ludwig will say something like “driving on the right side of the road here” or some kind of signifier, and the other will say “this car seems slavic”. Ludwig’s point is correct s out how geogessur was intended and how it ended up.

When I lived in Japan I went to the stairs from Your Name and was surprised by how out of the way it was. It’s not near any main tourist train stations and tucked back several streets behind homes in a quiet neighborhood and leads to a cute little shrine. If you weren’t looking for it I don’t think anyone except locals would even know it exists. The fact that Makoto Shinkai used this shrine and these stairs is fascinating to me because if he wasn’t a local why did he decide to end his film here? And if he is a local then again, what was so significant about this spot that he wanted to use these stairs? Funnily enough on either side of the stairs are just regular homes that literally touch the stairs with people hanging their laundry out to dry and letting their kids play. I wonder how they feel about the site having become a minor tourist attraction.
Love seeing Chris on the channel! Such a nice guy and an absolute legend.
