The idea wasn't to make the game harder, but make the game funner.  I should
be able to move from Kepler's Rock to Kepler's Valley without having a
general breath down my neck about why I'm not a team player for not going to
Kepler Forest.  I am sure there will always be direction for those who just
like following orders and observing the game w/o really interacting with it.
