The image on Depth Perplexion doesn't illustrate the trope clearly enough to me. For all intents and purposes, if I had never played the game before (I haven't) I'd think Robin Hood could just keep walking and not "run into" anything. It's not enough to say that "the tower is blocking him", it has to show it.

Here's something I (personally) think depicts the trope a little better:

Current is much better. I have no problems seeing it in the current. I don't get the suggestion.

The suggestion looks two-dimensional, which doesn't help it's illustrative qualities one bit.

I wonder if a comparison shot would work, as in one part highlights the 'logical' traversal while the other highlights the 'actual' traversal and how it doesn't sync up.

I don't think this needs any help. I think it's good as it is.

I sort of disagree because the current is not particularly clear (and the suggestion is no better).

I'm torn on this one...the current kinda relies on the caption to make the trope clear, but the suggestion is a little small for my liking.

The current took me a minute to figure out what I was even looking at, but yeah, the suggestion is a bit tiny.

Midna, think you can get a bigger image of that Shantae pic? we're really having a hard time seeing if it illustrates any better...

I don't think the suggestion is an improvement.

The current rely on the caption, true, but I doubt it's possible to illustrate it any other way since animated gifs aren't permited.

The suggestion is way too small.
