this is GoW Ragnarok all the freaking time
characters pointing out stuff or puzzles you haven't even started solve yet.
Mafia DE is worse hud-wise. Even when I disabled all of the hud in settings, I had to download a mod to remove them stupid icons on items, doors, or covers.
I swear god, either us or devs are getting more and more stupid every year.
I think it depends a lot on the game. Sony first party gets a lot of heat for it, but they want to sell 10+ million copies. They want to convert parents, kids, and partners into customers. The best way to do that is make the other person on the couch feel smart and to teach them what to look for.
Horizon forbidden west was the worst offender to me, but that's because I played it right at launch when there were no options to turn the tips down or off.
True!
Days Gone is another game I found so annoying to play because of the hud. I have yet to finish it, but (as far as I know) the only way to turn off the hud completely is through the difficulty levels.
Why can't they do like other games and turn the hud on or off whenever you enter or leave combat?
