the big issue with a straight-up quest log is that it might end up being a form of narration or player character narration and that doesn't really go along with the blank slate approach that they want in these games. from here it seems like a roleplay/immersion thing, first and foremost.

that said i think there are other ways -- the map markers they added are one. i think the most organic way of going about it would be including some character quote in the item description of the thing that the quest character last gave you.

but the thing i really wanna complain about is no autorun. i've put a lot of time into souls games and i've never had my thumb get sore before, because the other ones are paced geographically in such a way where sometimes you take elevators or drop off of things. you can let go of the stick. a big part of this game is running by things on torrent so you can get into legacy content and then run by things on foot.
