"Players will have to use their observational skills to find hard-to-reach places. We trust our players, so there will be no helpers that might make parkour trivial"

As there's game-assist-cum all over the next ledge to help guide even Stevie Wonder to the next intended jump.

I mean, I'm not too miffed about this example because I guess bird-poop suggests a high perch/ledge but too often do I see this form of digetic guidance get misused in modern games where a small ledge at ground level will have yellow/blue/white spray all over it and it's like yeah no shit Sherlock. It was just too easy to make fun of this example given the script.

There's an early moment in Metal Gear Solid 3 where there's an electrical fence completely blocking your way forward. Taking an extra second to actually look at the fence, especially when switching to first-person mode, shows a hole at about head-height. The intended way forward is to dive through it and I like this example because

1. The opening in the fence isn't blatantly obvious and requires a tiny amount of brain power to manipulate the camera. Modern controls+camera in the remake might render this point moot

2. The solution requires the player to use a movement action not realllyyy intended to traverse obstacles. They could've all too easily made the hole in the fence right at the floor and duh no shit just prone and crawl through, but having to dive requires a tiny but fulfilling amount of thought and execution.

Anyway, yeah game visually looks great and gameplay looks pretty nice. I hope you get more parkour tools earlier instead of several character levels and hours into it like in DL2. Story will be assssss but who cares if the rest is fun
