Quest markers are for casual players, which is their targeted demographic. Good thing you can turn them off completely if you're not a casual.
It's just an option, so it's fine.

>Good thing you can turn them off completely if you're not a casual.

and then not be able to do quests

>If you're a casual
The game gives you enough directions via dialogue and landmarks.

no it doesn't

I even remember a quest where it said "Go to that NPC in Novigrad", Literally JUST that

Now this is a new level of bullshit.

No, only TW2-3 Xbots will.
TW1 was the only GOOD game in the series.

>I remember
You might remember it wrong.

this

...

>go talk to x
>x tells you to talk to y
>y tells you to talk to z
wow such a great quest, just like my MMOs

>B-BUT GUISE YOU DON'T NEED TO USE THE WITCHER SENSES TO DO QUESTS!!

Wait I thought we were talking about waypoints.

lol witcher came out it may 2015 and still butt blasts kids from Sup Forums

truly ebin

>Go to Novigrad
>Ask around for "NPC"
but you couldn't put 2 and 2 together, casual

but you can't have dialogues with the generic citizens, and the unique NPCs that have dialogues are few and scattered around the city

>actually wanting to ask for directions
are you a woman?

when you arrive to a new city you've never been before do you know locations of every single person?

If they actually had written out instructions like that the game would that 500+ hours to complete instead of 150.

A strong sign the game is padded

yeah, every town and city should be three houses and a creek, so you can easily find every npc and not waste too much of your prime shitposting hours

>creek
>no bridge

nice artificial difficulty

What makes it even worse is that the markers in Witcher 3 aren't even always accurate. The white dots that are supposed to be a "path" are frequent wrong, take you off roads, force you to turn around, etc.

But the problem is that the quests are designed with the mini-map in mind. So even if you turn off the mini map you are still getting quests that bear the marks of its presence.

The truth is that most players, even "hardcore" ones, like features such as the mini-map and quest markers. The vast majority of players will not turn these things off.

That doesn't make the entire game bad somehow. If I only listed flaws about the first game I could pose it like its bad too.
