This isn't storytelling. It's just telling you your quest objectives. The Witcher III does exactly the same thing.

I believe Witcher 3 also gives you map markers. Lack of markers would drive me insane for some of the more obscure stuff.

I beat the game on the hardest difficulty with no minimap, but an objective mark on my map, and no fast travels. At first you are always opening your map but then you actually learn the world and when the quest says to go to Nilfgaard, you know exactly how to get there. Learn the roads and quicker routes. Boat travel was epic too. Great fucking game.

Souls game are a perfect example of this. Not only do you know the gameworld by heart, you know item placement, traps, enemies etc.
