Wow, I was trying to avoid Dark Souls 3 info until I played it, and then they just go and put that shit in their article title. Thanks PCGamesN.
Yeah I would've preferred not knowing that.
Didn't the translation actually come out to 'there's an area [i]like[/i] Firelink Shrine' rather than Firelink Shrine itself anyway?

[QUOTE=Lolkork;49625992]I don't think knowing that the game is set in lordran would make much of a difference in your enjoyment of the game.[/QUOTE] In a game where one of the core aspects is discovery and diving into the unknown, it does make a difference.
[QUOTE=Lolkork;49626139]No it really doesn't, this is probably established in like the first 30 minutes of the game. Probably less, every souls game up to this point has had its location named in the opening cinematic.[/QUOTE] Doesn't matter, people really like playing these games without knowing anything about them.
While I don't really care that much about this I agree that including that specific detail in the headline of the article is really stupid.
[QUOTE=Lolkork;49626778]I agree with you that souls games are best enjoyed blind, because the fun of the games is to explore the world and learn how to defeat bosses. So I avoid footage and detailed previews of the game because it will spoil those things. But I don't think just knowing that a familiar location is in the game will change anything, because it doesn't reveal any of the gameplay details.[/QUOTE] you can make a lot of assumptions about where the game is set now however i would have preferred not to have known, so that when I launched the game it could have been "oh wow this is firelink shrine again!!" rather than me already knowing
