    Elden Ring resolved the problems with checkpoints, and that game turned out to be one of my favorite games of all time.

    Except for Raya Lucaria. The way to Rennala is a bit too long for my taste.

      That one is the standout. I’m not sure why that doesn’t have a Stake of Marika just outside it. It’s still much better than Bed of Chaos, Four Kings or Seath.

        Absolutely, and I can’t think of another one that’s too long. Even the way to Rennala isn’t dangerous (once you learn to dodge the balls), which I’m very happy about. And she’s easy enough to be beatable on your first attempt once you’ve learned her patterns.
