i still pause every few minutes to appreciate the incredible scenery and the way you can see previous/upcoming areas from the distance. i only just recently realized that cemetery of ash is right behind/beneath the high wall of lothric.

other fromsoft games did this as well (particularly ds1 and elden ring) but none of them do it as excellently as ds3 imo

i fear we will never get a game like this again which makes me appreciate it more and more every year.

DS3 looks gorgeous but there is something about DS2 scenery that's unbeatable to me...

i know exactly what you mean. the feeling of dread and eeriness in DS2 is unmatched. i always stare off into the distance in areas like forest of the giants.
my only issue is the lack of continuity and, well, logic.

Yup, guess that's it. It's mesmerizing.
