I'm genuinely interested in knowing what deeper mechanic I missed after getting the platinum trophy.

Bonus points if it's stuff I could've done without playing the game multiple times, because I don't have the time for that.

While it wasn't like I was discovering things I had no idea of before, my own experience in getting the platinum I felt I kept learning things and improving on each subsequent playthrough. Whether it be enemy patterns/movesets, a better understanding/tactics of my own movesets, getting better/more courageous at using parrying, etc.

It also helped that I switched my primary weapon for each playthrough to keep things fresh and they played differently and influenced my playstyle and had me approach encounters in different ways. I had a Skill Build and on my first playthrough I went Threaded Cane -> Blades of Mercy, NG+ was the Burial Blade, and NG++ was the Rakuyo which was, IMO, by far the most fun to play with.

I don't think locking on ever gave me a top-down view really, though maybe I'm defining that more stringently? =/

The wall/large enemy thing is real though. That's where the camera fails.

I never had it give me a top-down view with lock-on. If anything, on the bigger enemies, it titled my camera to look up instead of down because it only locks on to their head (or the equivalent of it, for those that didn't have one), and that gets worse the closer to the enemy you are.

Had major camera issues on many of the big chalice dungeon bosses.

Ulti, I don't think anyone ever claimed the camera was perfect.

What was said that your complaints often didn't make any sense compared to what everyone else experienced to the point that I believe we were asking for gameplay recording to see what the hell you were talking about.

Also you were complaining about exponentially more with every installment. You barely said anything about it in DeS and DS1 despite those having far more cramped areas where the flaws in the camera are way more pronounced.

The whole thing was just far more bizarre than it was "wrong" per se.

honestly I just ignored Ulti, clearly no one in this topic wanted to harass me just for saying the camera isn't that good. wasn't even in my OP. pretty silly
