>Again, using FF7, the game that had a literal button for showing what is and isn't a door, is not good for your argument.
An optional button, mind you.
The game works just fine without the guidance. You still have to remember that this was 1997. People were literally still playing on their SNES and Genesis during those days. 3D in any form was a new and novel thing, thus requiring some extra guidance and tutoring.
This still does not negate the cinematic quality of the FF7's pre-rendered frames. The world is lush and detailed, extremely fascinating to explore, with no two rooms or areas ever looking the same. This was a phenomenal upgrade from the Tileset-based RPGs people were used to up until that point, and it's extra impressive considering that Squaresoft managed that with SNES era technology.
