        It's really that bland and it doesn't make sense. There's something off with the execution.
        The actual lore is fairly distinct from other major fantasy settings other than the Dragons, Giants, and Knights of Zamor ASOIAF rip offs.
        I think the game is too reliant on the player digging into the lore to actually appreciate it and ends up coming across as weird if you just gamer bro through it.

        It was a cool scenery but realizing that the Belfires just lead you to consolidated areas in those levels took the magic out of it personally. A lot of the teleportation stuff felt tacked on at the last second. For me, it was casually taking the elevator to Siofra River on launch night.

                Senpou is absolutely the best designed area in the game. Love Fountainhead as well. The main point is that because of Sekiro's grappling hook allows you to bypass everything, so areas are designed as larger open areas for quick traversal. It's a bit similar to the open world segments in Elden Ring. I would love to see a game entirely consisting of Legacy Dungeon style levels, the amount of interconnectivity, vertically and secrets was incredible.

                I think that's a matter of aesthetic taste. Sekiro itself a great game with cool mechanics and bosses, but I think the "Samurai world full of demons" is a boring aesthetic.

                I have to stop you there, because Sekiro has a really great aesthetic curve where the first few places you visit enemies are just normal people, no magic whatsoever. As you start reviewing more and more weird immortal monsters it's really shocking.

        Getting to Nokron was more kino. When you beat radan, see the nuclear explosion from the meteor and then realize that there is a huge fricking crater now that you can climb down to just to get into the underworld

              A Miyazaki swamp was necessary. It was obligatory for the sanity of the developer to put a zone with this shit. I'm sure he intended to make it way larger considering that there is some other rot swamp nearby that you can't access but the other devs stopped him from it.

              Skyrim literally repeats the same dungeons 20 times, as does Morrowind, Witcher 3 and Gothic. Stalker and FNV are the notable exceptions here I'll give you that much, but even FNV reuses Fallout 3 assets too much.

              In short, the quality of ER's open world is still exceptionally high, you're just a salty contrarian homosexual.

                I don't mind the repeated content, I just think the ER's open-world absolutely fails at the "world" part. Like I said before, it just feels like From made several big areas and stitched them together. It feels more like a giant amusement park, not one big world, which is fine for the game.

                I think it's pretty disingenuous game design, bordering on overtly malicious. Look at Limgrave/Weeping peninsula, it has 30-50% of the side content, then when you get into Liurnia, the largest area in the game with miles of rock faces where caves and dungeon entrances should be... there are none.

                It's blatantly front loaded

                The game is fronted loaded, but I wouldn't call it disingenuous game design, since it's a fact that the vast majority of buyers don't finish games. So frontloading all the good shit is incredibly common, which is why a lot of games pitter out at the 50% mark

        It's an omen illusion, exactly the same as his brother Mohg's in the sewers. Margit knows that Godrick is the weakest of the demigods and put his illusion there to ward off tarnished who would seek his great rune.

      It's a projection. He tests all of the new tarnished to see if any of them have a shot at laying seige to the capital. His physical body remains in Leyndell during the game.
      You can encounter a random hollow out in the Altus battlefields that also turns into Margit as a projection when you get close. He's just astral projecting around to scare people and see who to watch.

              That sounds like your own stubbornness/ego/autism more than anything. Many games will put strong enemies in early places that you're clearly not intended to beat or fight until later. Tree Sentinel is one of those enemies.

              I don't know how this is even a discussion. Play the game how you want, there's nothing wrong with that. If the game places a difficult enemy in your path intentionally you can either go get stronger and come back or learn it's attacks extremely well and eventually get past it now. The game offers you a choice, neither of those options are the wrong answer.

                Choke on your own vomit. Go ahead and tell me how many times Radahn was staggered in that video. You can do some simple math, counting on one hand isn't hard. I never once claimed that the average person plays the game this way, stop backpedalling like a coward. The bosses in this game can be beaten like any other boss in the series, by learning their attacks. You don't have to "stat check" them or "abuse broken mechanics". If he was using a katana you'd complain about bleed. You'd complain if he used weapon arts. You're fricking complaining he used an UGS with no armor.

                They're still intentionally designed bosses that encourage experimentation to beat. Elden ring really doesn't allow for anything beyond either rolling into the boss or kiting them. There's no interaction or problem solving, it's closer to call boss fights a 3-D bullet hell.

                I wasn't even talking about the over world, but at least botw doesn't have copy paste dungeons. Talk about stale content.

                I’ll give you something on boss design, but that’s primarily because Zelda games are puzzle games. The combat has always been incredibly simple.

                There’s more intricate dungeon design in the first legacy dungeon (stormveil) than anything in BOTW.

                But yet again, hard to compare because they aren’t even remotely similar games other than both have swords and shields

          They had summons that were only made available after the use of humanities, human effigies or embers as oppose to the extremely low cost spirit summons, they were worst combatants than almost all spirit summons, they were unupgradable, died very quickly, did miniscule boss damage and were mostly useless. theres no comparison.

    So the greater will two fingers is just straight up wrong, right?

    No matter the play through they freeze up and stop talking. Because you have to burn the erdtree to access Marika. This is also something that is expected because it’s the entire purpose of maidens. What is the point of the journey to collect the elden runes to repair the elden ring if they were never going to allow you to access it? Maybe I’m a lorelet but it seems like the only possible canon endings are age of stars and frenzy, because it’s the only one where it makes sense that the greater will tried to stop you.

    Can someone with more knowledge school me on this?

      Summons are literally in the game, and are a defining feature of it. All the shitters whining about people using them should try a playthrough without using Bloodhound Fang, the weapon everyone who whines about summons used because they watched MoistCritikal play through the game with it before starting a playthrough themselves.

And as for it being an all-time classic? Please, give me a break. Just because a bunch of people liked it, doesn't mean it's going to stand the test of time.

    I think I’m just over the open world concept, I won’t even say it did it badly. Lot of cool places, hidden caves, random castles, etc. on replays knowing that most don’t lead to anything I really need makes me just B line to relevant places/bosses.

    The sheer amount of shit to collect if you were ever trying to 100% a run in this is too tedious and daunting on replays. So now my time is spent skipping 80% of the content to go from one legacy dungeon to another, making occasional pit stops for NPCs or build specific gear
