I like the swamp. The maps are quite unique and the aesthetic is probably the creepiest we currently have in the game.

I can. Swamp levels are not universely bad, and suggesting this is just silly.

the swamps is MGS 3 for instance are pretty great.

And if you played RE 7 or end of zoe, they are rather enjoyable, and creepy

I think the issue is that the borders of the map are quite... boring. There's nothing there.

At least on the salloom there's at least a few pallets.

If they cut down on the edges, the maps would improve a bunch

I don't think that is the issue. The main problem, in my opinion, is the weird lighting and lack of Fog.

Nuke it with North Korea's Nuke Bomb!

You been to Blight town one too many times?

Me too.

Blighttown is alright. That from someone who played Dark Souls like a Million times.

The swamp in Dark Souls 3 is horrible, the only redeeming factor are the Abyss Watchers.

@Topic:

I would not mind if they delete this Map during the graphical Rework. Like "whooops". Nobody would be mad at them.

The lighting in the past was so much better than the one we currently have. Just look at some old videos, and you will see what I mean.

And, to be honest, the lack of Fog is a massive issue. The Fog is extremely important to the game, in terms of lore and ambience. Especially ambience.

Here is an example:

Maps in the past looked much better. Everything looked creepy. Everything looked good.

That is what DBD truly is.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree... I don't see an issue with the current lighting. besides being a bit brighter than it used to be.

So much fog... this game was already silent hill before we even got the silent hill chapter. XD

I always pictured in my head the fog dissipating and the trial appears. which is why there's almost no fog unless you use an offering. but yeah, a bit more fog would be good

Well, I prefer the old lighting. But as they say, to each their own :)

That is why we should, somehow, be able to choose between old and new maps. That would be nice.

As for the Fog, I ma glad we agree that we need more.

I do prefer the old lighting, I think it being darker makes more sense and in general looks better, but it's the entire game that is brighter, not just the swamp.

so I just don't wanna say the swamp is bad because it's brighter, when that's the entire game. you know?

and just to be clear, I like the old lighting more, but I don't think the current lighting is an issue. just less good.
