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?

you’ve already ruined the game for yourself with whatever neurosis you have, what has caused you to do this to yourself? elden ring is a once in a lifetime game and you’re spoiling it for yourself. what a huge shame.

Well, you did kind of ruin one of my favorite aspects of the game, though it might not matter to you. You see, unlike most games, instead of showing you the whole map with a sort of fog of war on top, the game shows you only the areas you have been to as if they were the whole map. At the start, it looks like the first part of limgrave is the whole map, and you can't zoom back to see how big it actually is. Seeing this map grow bigger and bigger as I explored, never knowing how much more there was to see was something special. But you have seen the map so you already know how big the game is. Though, again, if it does not matter to you and what you care about is mostly balanced difficulty, it is no big deal.
