No one else agrees with this?
I do, but like a lot of requests about having a lot less "dumbing down" I feel like it's a lost battle, as people for the vast majority will always pick immediate convenience over tight design.
I would do completely without a minimap in most games and design them around its absence, for instance.
But there are people who would have panic attacks without a buttload of handholding.
I remember reading tons of complains from people who though DOS 1 was super obscure and hardcore, for instance.
