You did not understand the topic. I am not asking to remove them, but to make them optional. But you named the cancer of the modern gaming - players are just lazy. They do not want to explore, dont want to figure problems out on themselves, they just want to be led by markers, icons, etc. Again, nothing´s wrong about that, but why leaving an option to turn off the handholding stuff out for the players who do not want to be handheld?
Every modern game is created with casual players in mind, that´s completely fine, but old-school players wanting a challenge, immersion are ignored with no reason, as it is really not that difficult make handholding stuff optional.
