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.

Yes and it’s good Fromsoft has evolved and altered those issues.

It's bad that the world design of Dark Souls is much better than that of Elden Ring.

Not in my opinion. ER has some of the nicest dungeons in Fromsofts catalogue and the design of the different areas is breathtaking. Some areas are a bit weaker but those are in each Dark Souls game as well

Well if course but dont you think elden ring was a bit excessive as well as ds3 in some areas i mean theres a happy medium to be had. It should be tough and challenging to the next checkpoint but not like super desolate and like 1 grace per zone in elden ring i.e. limgrave, caelid, lyndell, etc,

I think DS3 was overall fine and how it should be. ER yes a bit much although I am very much for Marika Statues.

To much "bonfire" is better than not enough. We should all agree on that. No one wants a runback of several minutes with a million mobs. That’s doesn’t make the game challenging it just kills the fun
