You're trying to take this in a different direction. You seem to be forgetting that this whole thing started because you admitted that you're terrible at the game and seem to blame your complete inability to figure the game out - where others have figured it out just fine - on the developers and "poor design". It's not the game. It's you. If you weren't completely awful, you could find a boss within the first hour, easily. If you're halfway decent at the game, you could find a boss in half that time. Funny you bring up how you wish the game were more linear. It's not exactly a maze with branching paths. Some of the routes you take circle back to earlier areas, but it's not hard to figure out where you need to go, if you have any sense to you.

Stop trying to protect a bad game. It's not my fault. I have years of experience with a huge variety of games so trying to blame me isn't going to work. The part of the game that was unlocked wasn't hard at all. It wasn't until I was partway into GTA that someone said the first boss is literally an easter egg hidden behind some secret blocked off side path. I probably walked by it once or twice. If I need to waste days scouring for a tiny path or rush to a walkthrough for the first area then yeah I'm going to blame bad design.

It's like giving people a word search and not telling them the words to look for. Big difference between 'challenge' and 'vague because we can and F you'. So when I weigh my choices between BB or moving on to better games like UC4, MGS5, Farcry 4, Doom, Last Guardian, or other major games I've not gotten to yet like Horizon, RE7, Hitman, Dishonored 2, Breath of the Wild, etc, it was easy to dump BB to the dud pile.

That's just it. Everything led back to the same point so I knew I wasn't missing anything. A few gates opened, important ones stayed locked. Still, if I was at least earning something for my repeated trips through the campfire area then maybe I'd have stuck around longer. I saw it all in the first hour or so. The remainder of the 3 hours was stuck on repeat.
