In all fairness, the yellow paint that players often dunk on is usually put in place by developers in response to playtesting and feedback, but it's hard not to notice. As confirmed by PC Gamer, in Outlaws, players will be able to play in what is called "Explorer Mode," which turns off "guiding color on core navigational elements" throughout the world. We'll certainly be checking it out, and it's a pretty cool option to include, even if it is likely to involve a little frustration after taking the yellow paint for granted for so long.
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth brought the yellow paint discussion back into vogue earlier this year, and so it's nice to see a developer address this visual nitpick head-on. It remains to be seen how many players will find themselves shamefacedly turning the paint back on in order to progress, data which we desperately hope Ubisoft releases someday.
Are you pro or anti yellow paint? Will you play Star Wars Outlaws with the paint on or off? Carefully apply a fresh coat before venturing into the comments section below.
