I understand that Nier (which I have not played) is somehow in the same continuity as Drakengard?

It's about the journey and this is actually a serious post.

The more open worlds I play the more I am convinced that paths are better. Wrt Ghost.

Souls games really made me appreciate paths and lit up obvious items. Items are still hidden sometimes but if it's visible on screen it's obvious. This as opposed to scouring open areas for nondescript vendor trash in say Skyrim.

I mean most of the stuff you pick up in Souls games is trash but at least you can spot the trash easily.

I think the saving grace in botw is that almost every treasure is garbage to an extent that loot in other games does not match and so it's really irrelevant if you miss anything that you don't find naturally.

Yeah the fact that the game design itself is open and not just the map is really good.

By saving grace I meant specifically with regards to the map. The game overall is excellent imo.
Another plus for the map every place is actually distinct and at least somewhat interesting.
Coughskyrimcough.

This sounds like this game called Legend of Mana I used to be obsessed with until I saw through the outstandingly beautiful scenery and awesome Yoko Shimomura soundtrack and realized the gameplay was actually really awful.
