What is the worst area in the game?

[JLPtheGreat]

For me it is the damned roof tops after the Pontiff boss fight. I extremely hate that area.

What is yours?

[guy.lateur]

firelink shrine for me.
decisions, decisions, decisions..

jk, catacombs? irythill dungeon?

[lazymagpie]

Poison swamps.

So far, it's been that breif rooftop section of the archives. I run from the double gargoyle check, everytime. Then I usually cheese the golden knights with a bow.

Same trying to avoid those damned dragon arrows, which are meant for dragons not for humans dum creatures.

As a pyro, Smouldering Lake. It's an area that you must clear with a pyro, but is impossible to clear, as everything is resistant to fire.

But more generally speaking:
dragon area, because it's too nice, and wyvern boss is a joke. (EDIT: DS is a dark fantasy game)
Anor Londo, because it's too short, and is very forgettable, even tho that area contains one of the best bosses (at least lore-wise).
Profaned Capital, same reason, but the boss isn't that great here.

Irithyll Dungeon is my top hated as of now. Just everything about it screams hate me.

[Corrupt_Player]

Snowfield, reason you'll never find the invader.

Church to Sullivan before opening shortcut, reason teleporting glitchy hyper aggressive dogs that stun lock and you.

Whole map, anywhere with dogs. Reason, Dogs.

[AlmightyDunkle]

Profaned Capital, it's just...pretty boring.

As a pyro I agree 100% with this, you have to: 1-use hidden body to navigate in the Smouldering Lake or 2-use sorceries or miracles or use other then fire based weapons to progress on that area

I don't have one in this game. Nothing rivals earthen peak and shrine of amana.

Man, ♥♥♥♥ shrine of amana, most obnoxious area in the series hands down imo. Although the path to blue smelter and the ice fields before Lud & Zallen come close.

[RdRStar]

I loved the shrine of Amana :(

I had no problems with the snow field. Specially since they gave you like 4 phantoms to summon.

The swamp. I always speed run it to get it out of the way. No fun allowed.

Irithyll dungeon, for sure. Between the screaming corpses, the godawful jailors, and the utter disappointment that is the Profaned Capitol, it's just not a fun place to be. Plus you have to go back in if you want to free Karla, and AGAIN to get to Archdragon Peak (although you can sprint to the elevator to get to AdP).

Of course, nothing beats the awfulness of Dark Souls 2's Frigid Outskirts. Especially when you're trying to solo all the bosses / areas. Luckily, I found a route that let me get through while only having to fight one Murder Horse. And the cheap reskin gank at the end isn't worth it except for completion's sake. Lud and Zallen were nowhere near as memorable as Aava, I boss I killed with shield bashes after my weapon broke halfway through (DS2 durability is the worst).
