Lost Izalith DLC Possible?

[King of Evil]

I know this is a 'remaster' but seriously, can we get an optional DLC that just updates Lost Izalith into something better? K thx.

I'm curious, was Lost Izalith originally supposed to be much larger in scope? Did the team run out of time before they could really finish the area?

[Lost and Damned]

no suffer

It was a training map for a new member of the team basically...

I don't know why the OP dislikes it though... I like this place

Yeah it's not lore related, well the area is but the mess isn't.
They ran out of time so thats why the area is so big and empty and there is almost nothing there, same with bed of chaos, it was supposed to be a crawling bug boss with a core you needed to whack but it never got done.
The animations for it are in the game unused.
I read about this a long long time ago by the way when questions were asked about it on 360 and why it seemed so out of place.

They ran out of time making DS1, Demon Ruins and Lost Izalith suffered for that. Even Miazaki hates those area. There was an interview where he said it was a different developer that made those areas not a new team member?

It's not like we didn't have nice open areas in DS1 like Darkroot Garden, rven in Blighttown you have more things to do and explore.

Ds1 is in general unfinished. There is a fully city part that you can see from Firelink Shrine if you look down. It has streets, stairs and is fully textured. Same with New Londo Ruins, that place was supposed to be 3-4 time bigger, you can see it if you drain the water.
