Lots of games have been doing something like this or similar lately, to the point where Rise of the Ronin basically has an in-game Wiki where you can click highlighted words to jump between entries.
Final Fantasy XVI did an amazing job with their Active Lore… I do like these new features, though I hope that plenty of games still decide to eschew them, as there was something special about oldschool PS1 games and having no fucking idea what is happening or where you’re going.
Edit: Rise of the Ronin might have a decent in-game info thing, but I think I was actually thinking of Unicorn Overlord that has the wiki-style thing and it’s huge. Either way, it’s a good trend imo.
