i agree with the free fly system being great and my favorite place to fly is the floating ials part 1 after u have killed everything and lit all the tourches cause u get a big area to fly in and u dont have any enimyies to wory about unless u didnt kill the elite

The only part I repeat is the Avalon fields. I love the fields. Great for flying. The only thing I like about DOTD is the free-fly.
