The largest map icons are the blue diamonds that denote a side-mission, though many turn out to simply be trigger missions for yet another kind of collectible, or task to be repeated. One has clearly been lifted from Breath Of The Wild, tasking you with finding specific locations with only a photograph (and Parker’s incessant monologuing) to guide you. Another introduces you to a local who has lost his homing pigeons after a house move: you’ll seek them out on the map, then chase them down, capturing them with the same button prompt you use to fling chunks of scenery at bad guys. They survive, apparently, but lord knows what kind of state they’re in.
