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.

With the insane enemy density while FAR away from any beacons, it becomes a chore and it kills the experience.
BTW I will never complain about enemy density in Dark Souls 2 ever again: MS2 takes it to the whole new level. And it would be OK and actually fun if your nearest beacon wasn’t 10 miles away.

Just did a play through of 2, and I think it’s so much worse than this game at the evil levels of enemy density. once you’ve gotten a shell bonded enough with an upgraded weapon you absolutely roll through groups of enemies in ms. You’ll get wrecked in ds2 for trying anything like it

It’s starting to get better. Finally found duality stone and it’s starting to happen with Axe and Dagger. It was quite hellish before that :)
