I'm having a ton of fun in DS3! I'm at the Swamps (Crucifixion Woods/Farron Keep).

All boss fights are awesome so far, that's top notch. The current one (Crystal Sage) is very different, but not in a bad way : with all the projectile types and the illusions in phase 2, it reminds me very much of an oldschool 2D bossfight actually!

Environments are gorgeous; I was under the impression that they would be all GRIMDARK and sepia only. But they do all have touches of aditional vibrant colour. Looks very much like DS1 to me.

No complaints with the "linear frame: although I love the interconnected world of DS1, this works for me too. I enjoyed the Nexxus hub of DeS, afer all.

You're in for a treat with this game if you are enjoying yourself at the swamp areas like Farron Keep. Many have stated this is the low point of the game, and generally the areas and especially bosses only get better from there (with the odd exception). Don't miss out on doing the dlc areas too as they are also fantastic.
