Black boxes are too easy to find.

Black boxes and other points of interest rarely require exploration to find.
This can cause a lack of independent player activity where they explore the world to it’s fullest. Some points of the game feel extremely point A to point B without giving the player much reason to venture themselves without waypoints.

Suggested fix is to use hints instead of waypoints such as subnautica 1’s life pods. Have NOA send a picture of the area, rough coordinates or vague description instead a quest marker.
