Seems so. Guess we all want a fast and easy rush.
To bad i am not a "we".
No highlighting requires a design,
Yeah, that will definitely be an issue if the game was too tightly designed around it (aka you can move one crate but not the other, climb one ladder but not the other, etc), but there´s some chance it actually wasn´t - there was no highlighting in earlier builds, at least judging by this "leaked gameplay" vid.
