Was the PS3 your first console?

Yeah lets pretend that we cant apply the same retarded logic in the other games.
>cant go through locked doors despite being able to damage godlike armored undeads
>the most powerful being cant climb a few structures to avoid entire dangerous sections of the games
I could go on, but dont even want to bother with more than 2 general examples.

The inability to do things due to game mechanics isn't an excuse for developers to be both lazy and retarded when it comes to level design.
For example, you wouldn't cage an enemy the size of a house in a game by using a picket fence, because it can't mechanically go beyond the bounds of it. That'd be retarded and incredibly immersion breaking.

Well actually, that was a bad example, since Dark Souls 2 cages enemies that are shown to be able to break their cages. But you got the idea...

It's called suspension of disbelief - why no one recognises Clark Kent after he sticks on a suit.

I can believe that by hammering a sword on a godlike enemy long enough it can die, but not break a door. It doesn't stand up to scrutiny but I can suspend my disbelief.

For this? It's literally a 2ft pile of rocks that a toddler could clamber on. Easy fix: make it something like a dead dragon or phalanx-like goo blocking the entire area
