| LegitHyperbole said: I guess it is indeed better than DS2 but it doesn't take much to achieve that. It has nothing to do with Metroidvania though, Sekiro isn't nor is Elden Ring and the world and map design is ecpceptional in both. It's just level design itself, not even comparing to just Souls, they can never seem to achieve something great. These games always have at least one area that holds it back and can't get it right on all fronts. The void between Lies of P and the weakest Souls games is such a drastic leap. I can't comment on Khazan yet as I'm not even half way through it, it's definitely better than Lies of P but it still has that massive gap for to reason, everything on paper seems like it should hold up to them yet it fails as if FromSoft have some strange magic about it. |
There are plenty of areas in Dark Souls 1 and 3 that are far from good level design. Same with ER, and it's one of my favorite games of all time.
