Physical cloth map or bust (Destiny)
I'd be happy with an in-game map as long as it's not overly detailed. Go the traditional RPG route by including a physical map with the game. Take inspiration from games like Baldur's Gate or Morrowind. I remember spending days exploring all the nooks and crannies in Morrowind and the map in that game was extremely vague. I'd take notes and draw on my paper map when I'd run across anything interesting.
You know what would be cool but would probably never happen? If the only world-maps you could find in-game were especially rare, each were individual artists' renderings, and not every map was the same. "Here Be Dragons!" Think, renaissance cartography. You'd be excited to find a map, especially a particularly cool looking one.
