Detail is a funny thing when comparing DD and DkS. Overall, Dragon's Dogma is the most beautiful game I've ever played; even after my endless hours I'll still walk the trails holding the camera at odd angles to catch the sunset in the background, and I'm constantly amazed by the details of the environment and what players can do with their pawns.

HOWEVER! Close-ups. If I catch a close-up of my Arisen's fingertips they'll be squared off, unfinished basically. If you catch close-up of fingertips in Dark Souls you'll probably see dirt under the fingernails and scars and caked blood flakes. I first noticed it with the Greatsword, have you seen the battle scars on that thing? INSANE detail went into the equipment on Dark Souls. Still, most beautiful game I've ever played is, hands down, Dragon's Dogma (2nd place goes to Alice: Madness Returns).
