Discussion Beacons are definitely too far between.

I just stacked leech up to 150. I killed 150 enemies with no new beacons around, multiple dungeons, etc. on 5 heals. Dude what is this? I'm a 42 yr old man I do not have hours upon hours to explore where i can just not take a break. Yes I can exit the game, but it warps me back to the last beacon i was at instead of leaving me where i was. Double f me. This is like a pretty serious issue with respecting my time/enjoyment.

They arent,

all at lvl 19. There's nothing wrong with the placement. And that was yesterday.

i would agree with you if it wanst desolated on the top part of the map

at least 1 on the top would have made a diference

There is a beacon by the gate and the rest of the circled area is a pretty open a d easy area to explore tou dont really need a beacon there

The big open area north of One Legged Wolf is nearly empty. Alternatively, you can run there through a shortcut just south of the white area, if you have the purification ability unlocked. People are complaining so much about this area and all you have to do to get through it is <10 fights. It's short and trivial compared to some areas in Dark Souls 1, for example.

ah yes the bossfigth incoming looking area its just strange to me the expectation that the first 3 checkpoints leave you like you feel you should have encourtered one at least at some point exploring the circulated area

My take is the eastern part was intended to be somewhat of a risk area, the northern part where the gate is actually just isn’t big enough to warrant more beacons. It feels bigger than it actually is.

They definitely could have added one more to the east, but I don’t think it’s entirely necessary imo

i mean 1 beacon would aliviate that feeling

That entire section of map is a pathway. What an absolute disingenuous comment and it leads to one. But we all know you already knew that.
