    Japanese know that churches are cool for boss fights.

    I have only played DS3 and ER. If i remember correctly, DS3 includes 1 big ass abbey (they call it cathedral), 1 big ass cathedral… annor londo isnt a catholic temple, but it has the looks for sure

    spoiler

    And beneath it, there is another freaking temple ::: plus scattered churches.

    ER does not look like it gives churches that kind of protagonism apart from cult of marika

      In Dark Souls 1 one of the most important boss fights is on the roof of a church you fight your way through to get on top of, and of course the same Anor Londo is there.

      The only one I can remember in Dark Souls 2 is the place you fight Ornstein. The architecture in 2 is quite a bit different from the rest of the series. Probably because it wasn’t Miyazaki.

      Didn’t the japanese flip the fuck out when assassins Creed had some missions inside japanese temples because it was sacrilegious? Seems a bit hypocritical.
