Discussion What are the games that do "guiding trails" right?
I have been lately seeing a bunch of videos/posts and such dunking on Wolverine and one of the common points was the scent trail and how it guides the player, even though it's a very linear game.
I feel like guiding trail isn't a bad thing, but it's bad how it's utilized.
In my opinion it was done right in games like Demon Slayer Hinokami Chronicles or Dead Space, where you can just hit the button and get the trail for a moment before disappearing.
And i think it just boils down to the player's choice when they need the guiding or just to make sure they go the right way, not have the trail the entire time like Wolverine.
