Define handholding
Games depriving you of the opportunity to explore boldly at your own pace by thrusting you along with it's narrative. Has to be more prolific than a temporary cutscene or a moment where you're encouraged to do a particular act. Additionally certain types of games are exempt from being criticised for handholding (Like vns or linear games)
>Cutscene where you walk to your new destination slowly and get fed dialogue: Not handholding
>Gameplay moment where you're introduced to a tough new foe and an NPC comments you should do X to avoid it and live for another day but you choose to fight it and see if you can win: Not handholding
>Gameplay moment where you're introduced to a tough new foe and an NPC comments you should do X to avoid it and live for another day but just as you choose to fight it and see if you can win you instantly game over or the NPC forces an outcome: Handholding

You're mixing up rail roading and hand holding.
Rail roading is forcing you to stay on track, confined to your carriage doomed to only see that mountain in passing.
Hand holding is overly liberal use of, for the most part superfluous, unskippable tutorials.
>>340035564
Holy shit this makes such a difference

>>340036704
>crab monarchy
Once you give the crabs advanced human weapons, societal upheaval results in the overthrow of the monarchy and the instatement of a technocracy
When a game treats the player like an absolute idiot.
The best and most aggravating example is Ni no Kuni, where your comic relief partner will force you through a tutorial basically every time you have to cast a spell. Or talk to an npc. Or solve a puzzle.
He will never shut up and talk slowly, bolding and underlining the "important parts" of his speak. Hearing him, 40 hours in, explaining to me how I was supposed to fix an npc's problem (a basic mechanic of the game introduced like 10 minutes in) was beyond bizarre.

"i could use this box" -nathan drake
"need to get this box over there" -nathan drake
for the eight time, 3/4th the way through, every one not a puzzle but a fetch box quest.
the one i hate the most in U4 was
"careful the floor is weak in this puzzle room" -nathan drake
"hmmm how did they get across?" -nathan drake
"ill just follow their foot prints" -nathan drake
th-th-th- thanks...

Male crabs succumb to Sacculina's powers as well. Males normally develop a narrow abdomen, but infected males grow abdomens as wide as those of females, wide enough to accommodate a brood pouch or a Sacculina knob. A male crab even acts as if he had a female's brood pouch, grooming it as the parasite larvae grow and bobbing in the waves to release them.
