Speaking to IGNin an exclusive interview, the game’s Creative Director, Jonathan Dumont, has discussed their version of Feudal Japan and how players will explore it.
Dumont spoke about a particular mission saying, “You’ll be free to track your prey in any order, and quests will “guide” you with hints rather than directly point out your objectives.”
It seems the developer wants players to find their way around and through the world more naturally, rather than being forced to places using map markers, which in previous game have become overwhelming.
Dumont continued saying, “It’s less of ‘follow a quest up to a point’, but it’s much more, ‘I want to do this’ and then you’ll find the way how to do it.”

It sounds like this will be a welcome change as it will urge players to discover the best way to proceed, taking away much of the hand-holding that has been seen in Ubisoft’s more recentAssassin’s Creedgames.
This change shakes up the previous system of climbing to a synchronisation point and then seeing lots of quest markers appear. Now you can spot a place to explore and venture out more naturally.
