[@tomo1861]

As someone who is also extremely good at GeoGuessr, I do believe anyone can get some what good at this game, although it really depends. It’s a mixture of a Photographic memory, revising meta (Signs, Power Poles, Road Lines, Flora, Area Codes, Architecture, Bollards, Cars, Language etc) Although region guessing requires mainly a photographic memory to some extent, and of course, by simply playing a lot the need for a photographic memory decreases, I can play this game after a year and still know what a specific region of a country looks like as my memory is photographic so I can simply compare the image on screen, to images I’ve seen before in the past.

[@dovos8572]

it is mostly training and training. even a photographic memory won't help you if you don't train to use it correctly from an early age on. it doens't really matter how "talented" you are. you still need hundrets to thousands of hours to learn and refine skills you learn. a person with some talent like photographic memory might have it a bit easier in lerning memory based skills but that is mostly because that person learns to use that from an early age on. it is always easier to learn a new instrument if you have already learned another instrument and build a good foundation on how music works through hundrets of hours of training.

[@tomo1861]

@@dovos8572 Exactly man, I was lucky enough at a young age that my grandad would sit there for hours with me going through the Atlas, looking at countries, flags, capitals etc, I am lucky in that perspective as my brain was trained from a young age. What’s remarkable is that there is no scientific proof a ‘Photographic Memory’ exists. It really does hi-light how true your point is about training, I myself believe that the brain is an incredibly powerful thing, and activation of it when young is extremely detrimental in determining later intelligence in life, and at least here there is scientific proof that that is somewhat true.

[@dovos8572]

@@tomo1861 I like to ask how a child is supposed to know how and in what structure it should memorize things. The kindergarten or school isn't teaching that. Most parents don't even think about the possibility to teach a child something like that because nobody thought them how to rise a child and what it should learn in the pre kindergarten time. They might get a generic answer like"let it do sports" or " let it learn an instrument" but that isn't an actual answer to the question. So the child has to reinvent the wheel on how to learn alone without a base it can learn from. Inventing a wheel might sound simple but it isn't done with "make it round". What radius is the best? Too big and it might not be able to turn it. Too small and it won't be able to get forwards fast enough to keep up. How wide should the wheel be? Too thin and it might get stuck in every softer or lose ground. Too wide and it might have too much friction against the ground and won't be able to turn. How should the inside of the wheel look like? What material do you use? How should the tire surface look like? On what types of ground does it even have to roll? And that is only one wheel. everything else of the car that gives the child a smooth ride through life is still missing

[@kristianlisicak650]

Not to say Rainbolt isnt a God at what he does and extremelly intelligent, to explain how the Geoguessr guesses work is that there are websites, discord channels, community chats and excel sheets dedicated to sharing and explaining knowledge such as: country specific pole designs, number plates, camera quality, rifts in the sky, colours of google cars, antenas on google cars, lines on the road, where the google car has been and is allowed to be ( there are 195 countries on earth, but only around 100 represented on Geoguessr ) etc. Just by memorizing and spending daily time on these forums and information sites, you can improve your game by a lot. He of course has talent and travels which can only help him out more.

You talk about knowledge from experience bordering on supernatural. I used to play so much of the rouge-like Torchlight that I could anticipate the chunk loadout of the "randomized" map. It got weird, but something about conscious clues almost becoming subconsciously read is the line were it gets weird. It's like muscle memory, you can train at being better merely in terms of consistency. It's like reading movement in Warzone without sight, and cracking somebody through a wall on a shot in the dark.
