The problem is that games are designed for it to be used. I hated using Witcher senses in Dying Light 2, but good look finding lootables without it. It’s a cop out solution.
It really depends on the game, you can't put all games under an umbrella and say it's all bad. I love the ones in Starfield, warframe, No Man's Sky, Assassin Creed Origins and Odyssey and many more. As long as it has actual uses more than just highlighting stuff and/or is well designed it's always welcome IMO. Haven't played DL2 yet but I really can't think of any game where it felt like a cop out for otherwise bad design.
It was amazing to play Ghost of Tsushima and have many missions where you’re tracking enemies by, wait for it…actually pointing the camera down to look for footprints and trampled grass.
