No guides for Elden Ring out yet, but I found some useful information from a potentially-trustworthy government source and I think any prospective players should familiarize themselves with the documenation, lest one inadvertently encounter time-wasting bullshit in or about the game environs.

It would be cool if you find a lever to drain the poison swamp but then it just dumps it on another area, creating a new poison swamp

the only truly bad area that made dark souls 1 a worse game was lost izalith

Lost Izalith was cool as gently caress.

I hope there is one and I loot it early on then forget about it for the rest of the game like I did in every other DS

I want a boss rush hallway, all hallways are poison swamps, and every hallway between bosses have a minimum 20 unique and useless items that each have two screens worth of deep lore item descriptions.

People rush through it to get to Bed of Chaos and don't explore it.

Also because every YouTuber and what not has said it's a bad area because development hell etc etc and gently caress me it's too hard to form your own opinion apparently.

tbf I would have hated it more in the original version where the lava is so bright it burns your retinas

But at least it has a cool Angkor Wat visual style

i explored the area and it was boring as poo poo. if anything, itd be more enjoyable if u just rushed through it. i dont need youtubers to tell me its an endless purgatory of boredom. i stopped playing the game for years cause of lost izalith. quit being a dumbass

You watch the youtuber - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe they ran out of time and money before finishing Lost Izalith. You read the Fextralife wiki - you stay in Lordran and I show you how deep the lore goes.
