Honestly I think the interconnected map of DS1 is one of its best features and is under-appreciated and no game since has even come close in that regard. It was a very metroidvania map and I love it
Without a doubt! I played DS1 after DS3 (was always intimidated by the series until a visiting friend forced me to sit down and actually play it, thankfully), so I had that, “whoa!” moment numerous times whenever I’d somehow end up either right inside the hub area or quite close to it after spending hours traversing dungeons and ruins that felt miles away from the hub.
Truly wish FS would make another game designed like it.
