In the above list, "Sleeping Spillway" should read "Windworn Way"

I had this achievement glitch for me on my main character; I had every bit of the map uncovered but it was still only registering 19/20 areas.
The way around this was to start a new character, get it up to level 13 and using the list in one of the other guides for this achievement, go through the map and tick off each area as it is discovered. All you need to do for an area to count is to have it announced when you enter it (e.g., "Now entering Plunderdome", etc.). You don't need to fully uncover every area on the map. Using this method, it only took a few rounds to visit all areas and for the achievement to finally pop.
Note that you can visit Stormblind Complex and start a round before you get to level 13, but you won't be able to pick up any weapons and thus won't be able to fight any enemies. It will take longer to build up your character to level 13 than it will to get all the regions!

Note: You can track your progress towards this trophy whilst in the Snowblind Complex by going:
=> Map => Press 
to highlight the Challenges tab => Scroll down with 
until you reach the "Complex Made Simple" challenge.
This trophy can either pop early, on time or very late on the PS4 but there's a good chance it won't ever pop if you have the PS5 version so backup your saves once you get close to when it's supposed to appear, then restore them if the trophy fails to pop. If the trophy fails to pop after a few tries, your only option is to start a new character from scratch and hope for the best. Using Cross-Save is thought to be one potential cause of this glitch in the PS5 version but since I don't have that one (I only have the PS4 release) I can't confirm this. A theoretical cause is playing in co-op, because all the BL games to date have some kind of stat tracking problem related to playing with others.
Here is the full list of all 20 locations needed for this trophy (credit to the Official Borderlands Wiki):
Dahl Geodome - Story Related, Can't Be Missed
Dam, WTF (Water Treatment Facility)
Deepstorm Depths - Story Related, Can't Be Missed
Doom With A View
Dreadnought Drydock
Heatant Pools
Hostile Homes
Industrial Tightens
Launch Command Sigma
Madwidth Power
Plunderdome
Scagscar Pass
Seepage And Creepage - Underground area (LINK)
Seeping Spillway
Shipping Encouraged
Skywatch Central
The Hunker Bunker
The Wherehouse
Windworn Way
Y Complicate Things

It's physically impossible to get all 20 locations in a single round, because there simply isn't enough time to explore the entire map without the Murdercane tearing you to pieces in the process. Due to this, you're looking at having to play a minimum of 5-6 rounds to find all 20 but do note that 1 or 2 of the locations are underground so refer to the main map whenever possible so you don't miss them.

To advance you will need a weapon
The map is not very large, but you won’t be able to open it all the first time.
Here, as in pubg, the map area gradually narrows. We need to open all locations.
Perhaps a bug/glitch, but it happened to me when 6 locations out of 20 were open. Through selection I was thrown to some random person and after he came out of the hole the trophy fell out. But even without this bug, opening all the locks is not too difficult.
Where to get weapons, see this tip .

The trophy can be obtained by creating a new character (set to easy difficulty).
Run through all the locations in 1 run (it took me about an hour and a half). We don’t win, we ignore monsters as much as possible. We die and so on until we find all the locations. If you find everything at once, without re-entering the location, the trophy will drop.

at the time of release the dlc "directors cut" is still buggy on ps5
upd^ do not start this achievement in co-op, there is a high risk that the trophy will be bugged.
Receive on ps5 exclusively in single player
