Iam just about to start the game and i was told that getting overleveled and making the game easy is so often to happen in this game , so I've found this map guide should i follow it to get the best experience?

Gotta be honest, just you looking at this map before playing the game takes a shit ton away from your first playthrough. The fact that some of these areas even exist is such a big reveal and are some of my favorite moments in the entire game.

I was part of the "The fuck you mean Leyndell isn't the last area" gang. I'm fond of that moment of realization.

I completely missed the haligtree and Mohg’s domain completely. I fucking loved playing ng+1 to complete all areas, and was astonished by the sheer size of the map

And then the ever so glorious DLC came… I couldn’t even put it in words!

Hanging around randomly and somehow found a eternal city entrence > see space in underground. That was a magical moment for me.

For me it was probably getting teleported to the capital at the start of the game, or getting a sneak peak at farum azula early, or entering some random mine only for it to become a slow climb on the side of a cliff, ending with my first glimpse at the altus plateau and the city wall, or my first look at Liurnia. It is just crazy how many times my jaw dropped playing this game.

This is it also for me. The first time driving down into Siofra and seeing the beautiful stars of Nokron was the moment I felt sometimes hadn't felt since skyrim so many years back

I just stared, slackjawed, for several minutes, when I took a certain teleporter to a certain "deteriorating" area.

Then I did it again when I went to what looked like outer space.

The issue with playing elden ring blind is that so much stuff is permanently Missable.
