    FF8 was infuriating about that shit, iirc shit did somewhat glimmer but they had a habit of jamming junk under overhangs you can’t see under and can’t really tell exist unless you try to walk there. You end up spending a significant part of the game walking around all the walls like a psychopath.

      Yeah, having stuff being obvious is actually incredibly freeing. Without that I waste so much time checking every part of every room, trying to work out which corridor leads to the objective vs which one might have collectibles.

      Knowing I can just play a game, find most stuff, get on with it, and not regret not using a guide is a real gift.

        That’s what’s wrong with your generation. You want all of the reward, and none of the work.

        In MY day, we had to LOOK for shit goddamit.
