It's called having a modern design philosophy you philistine

Have they ever come up with an explanation as to why boxes, ledges and valves are painted yellow, in any game?
HiFi Rush had a robot whose job was to install the arrow signs you see scattered throughout the levels you play and you'd read his notes sometimes. That was funny.

Even indie games do yellow paint now lmao what a fucked medium.

It can make sense for things to be painted different, like an emergency ladder or markings on a construction site lit up signs above exits and whatnot. But that requires some amount of thought and it's easier to just take a paintbrush tool and splot some yellow down

>t. seething failed "dev"

>>724162734 (OP)
the paint was because the quality assurance playtesters were braindead morons

>>724165647
QA wouldn't be an issue if the game was competently designed to begin with

>"destroys" only AAA movieslop games
Based?

Symptom, not cause. The cause is gamers in 2025 being braindead burnouts. They buy games to get to the ending, not to enjoy them.

just look how stupid the modern gamer is they willingly buy pokemon and other trash. do you seriously expect people like that to understand you can climb ladders and stuff? be real

>>724162734 (OP)
they need to do this thanks to digital sales being able to be refunded if the player can't finish the first puzzle ala cuphead or even find the first door or ladder the player will just refund they've studied it and it has proven successful

I've never seen that on paint before.

omg...they game teaches you how to play as you play....it has such good game design

>>724169348
the only way to teach a player is by painting a path yellow? I hope you never make games

>>724163135
These aren't hints, those are for arcade players to stop being cowards and continue playing like god intended

>>724169375
Yes because those very clearly distinguish themselves from the gameworld instead of lazily trying to "blend in" the retardproofing.

>>724163135
That's encouragement, not handholding.

>>724162734 (OP)
Isn't this a result of devs chasing photo realism and players not being able to distinguish background props for interaction objects?
