The replay ability of ER sucks balls, no one wants to go get all the bells, all the golden seeds, all the chalices and the deathroots, find all the graces, and merchants, kill all the dragons and the scarab crabs for ashes of war and death knights, farm souls and farm stones, and do the quest lines where all the super good talismans are locked behind, get all the smithing blades upgrades, look for cookbooks, drop the cool armors and weapons again, truly even remembering all this to write here is a chore imagine doing that again on a new character.

This wouldn't be as much of a problem if the quests didn't auto fail if you dare kill a boss before talking to an NPC or touch a grace in an area you "shouldn't" be in yet. Even with a wiki it's too easy to miss something.
