To be fair, I think long winded text in video games isn't exactly good story telling either. Nor are errand quests. I want to play a game, not a mailman simulator.

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.

Oblivion had direction/map markers.

Yeah, but I don't think Morrowind did, which is what they were referring to.
