Or you could just have an actual compass. Either as an item in the game or as something the game sorta just assumed you have (like how it typically assumes you have underwear). People have been using compasses IRL for thousands of years. No reason a mediaeval fantasy game couldn't do the same.

That's the "diegetic" option. I'm cool with having any sort of navigation (up to and including a GPS with objective markers and turn-by-turn navigation, for a game like Grand Theft Auto) if it's diegetic.
