Why is it wrong to like the marker in Skyrim?

Fuck off zoomer.

It would get old in Skyrim, because the game isn't designed around not having a compass with constant waypoint markers. People are saying that not having them should be the standard, while not acknowledging that it takes actual effort on the developer's part to lead players in the right direction. A game like VTMB worked without quest markers because it was smaller and tightly designed around distinct hubs and landmarks to work with, and you were physically told all that you needed to know to go exploring and find something.
Playing a game like Skyrim with waypoints turned off adds nothing to the experience but a load of extra time-wasting guess-work as you poke around an entire town or ten square miles of identical country-side hoping to find the one NPC you're expected to talk to. There's nothing else in-game to lead you the right way, because quests are designed around the waypoint system.

The marker in of itself isn't a problem, the real problem is since devs know the player can just follow a braindead marker everywhere on the map they don't have to put care and time into the game world visually with interesting landmarks and sights to see. This has a butterfly effect to all aspects of the games design that ends up with a much more generic and boring product.

It's like the difference between solving a puzzle and reading a mystery book. They both have a solution to be found, but while the puzzle requires thinking and effort on your part, the book will provide you with the necessary clues and ultimate solution whether you're critically engaged with it or not.

A journal/quest log with highlighted or underscored text that give directions is about where I draw the line. Although I will accept compass with markers for games with high mobility or cars n shieeet.

It's mandatory because every single location looks the same with different levels of snow so it would be impossible to find it
