As mentioned, you have loads of different options when it comes to what gear you want to equip and how each piece compliments your chosen playstyle. While the intricacies of those choices aren’t pointless at all, what could be considered pointless is what happens when you wander across the sand. This one was uncovered by Soulsbourne super sleuth and Twitch streamer Lance McDonald and while it may be very minute, it’s pretty damn charming.

If you walk across the sandy beach with shoes on you’ll leave shoe prints, but if you remove them you’ll leave footprints, complete with little dots from your toes.

It’s a lovely little detail that, much like the rest of the entries on this list, showcases the developer’s attention to detail even down to the most mundane aspects.
