(4) The premise is fine, but DS2's story could be better. I'm currently at the beginning of the story, but it feels like it's just retreading old ground (Death: "I want to clear my brother's name") and I'm 6 hours in and the plot is currently irrelevant (Death: "I have to help these giant Scots with their Fern Gully problem that has nothing to do with my brother or the Heaven-Hell War.")
I'm 6 hours into the game, and I should be knee-deep in conspiracies and shifting alliances in all of the Purgatory realms on the sidelines of the Heaven-Earth-Hell War. A large free-travel game is a format meant for that type of sprawling web of storytelling, rather than a linear plot with a singular focus (the game is not linear, but the plot seems to be). Game of Thrones this is not, and it could have been.
Yeah, they're all on Earth, in War's game.
Despite some of the fantasy-esque locales, all of DS1 takes place on Earth except for a brief jaunt into Eden near the end of the game.
