Hundreds of years is a long time and plenty of things can happen in that time frame. As far as we know, there's only one Kiln and there were never and hints or mentions of there being more. What logical reason would all of the Lord souls have to move across the sea, all four of them along with the Kiln of the first flame being under Drangliec Castle which was likey built over Firelink Shrine. There's also the fact that you find the original Lord souls, souls of the old gods of Lordran in that landmass. But there's really no reason for Straid to even mention it if it weren't relevant. If you choose to ignore the fact that many things were retconned for Miyazaki to continue his series the way he wanted to without being hooked to Dark Souls 2 that's your own choice and I really can't be bothered to argue with you any further. I see its flaws after playing through it about 5 times now, but my first impressions were that FROM achieved the impossible: they made a game that I like more than Dark Souls. However, it's very understandable to me, considering it's basically the finale to this entire series unless we get a Bloodborne 2.
I know it has fanservice, though not as much as some people would make it out to have, and I don't particularly like that kind of thing. Honestly, with how good DkS3 turned out to be, despite being a direct sequel to a game that really did not need one, I'd say it is probably as good as a cap to this series could be. However, I was immediately disappointed with II, primarily in terms of the gameplay, but also due to a major lack of creativity with regards to most of the lore/story.Ī really good sequel would have been closer to a spiritual successor (like Demon's to Dark), allowing for more creativity and experimentation. I liked the idea of a sequel to Dark Souls being something kind of maybe in the vein of Dark Souls 2, since I felt the original was so self-contained, it was never really meant to have a true, direct sequel.
