Elden Ring's transition to Open World seems to be something that a lot agree was a move that detracts from the traditional Souls experience. But I haven't seen a discussion that encapsulates why that is for me.
The Internet squabbles have made this a more difficult discussion than it needs to be. Join me while I painfully unpack that discussion.
