When GeoGuessr first launched, some of the locations seemed non-random. This made it less enjoyable to play because it hinted that the locations were maybe solvable or famous enough that they should be recognised.

For me the thrill of GeoGuessr was always finding yourself at a random point of earth and trying to work the continent and the latitude based on vegetation, road markings and vehicles.

Still, restricting the guess area to a country or city might be fun if you have visited it and could possibly name a place or two.
