Control Resonant director lays out case for avoiding excessive 'yellow paint'

Remedy Entertainment's Control Resonant director Mikael Kasurinen explained on the Dropped Frames podcast why the team deliberately avoided "yellow paint" visual signposting. Players navigate an open-world Manhattan by running, flying, and changing gravity, and Kasurinen said the choice was conscious even though it risked making the game feel "impenetrable," so players feel they found their own path.
