Completely agree! It was the first place that game really humbled me. Just when I was thinking I had a grip on the difficulty of my first play through; wow! It still stands out as one of my favorite Souls' memories but at the time I hated that place with a passion.
Fuck Blight Town and all its fuckery. I'd rather go through Demon's Souls' poison area (just all of world 5 lol) than Blight Town. I might be biased because I haven't finished Blight Town yet because it's a huge source of frustration for me, but that's how I feel about the area.
