I went into Ds1 expecting BlightTown to be tough and Sens Fortress to be the end of my playthrough. Neither were actually very bad. I feel like the difficulty of these areas has been memed up a bit.
I’m currently stuck on Nito. That area feels harder imo.
Yea, Blighttown’s manageable if you’re somewhat competent in the game. I feel like much of the difficulty primarily stems from the frustration the area’s design itself brings: the darkness, enemy placement, poison, weird geometry. Objectively speaking, there are worse areas in these games.
Can’t comment on Sen’s fortress because I haven’t gotten that far yet lol
