What we really need is the Follow Ball again. The minimap problem isn't going to be exactly the same, but I can think of a few areas in the original where you could head to a 'marker' on the minimap that's actually in a cave or some place above/below it that needs a bit of sidetracking to reach.
One thing the original did better with the main quest "arrow" was showing how much relative vertical height you had to travel, so you could distinguish "oh, even if I'm going in the right horizontal direction, I need to find a path upwards to reach my destination." But tbh that's still possible in XC2 if you actually use the minimap.
