That's a very saddening thing, but it's so incredibly true. Trying to explain a jRPG to someone that just really doesn't get it, it's tough. Kids expect the game to just hold their hand and tell them exactly where they need to go next - they don't bother reading the text in game to try and figure it out. Hell, Chrono Trigger gives you hints on your next destination in the dialog AND the chapter name on your Save file!
