Spell Range

Hello! I remember from ds2 that spells and miracles flew far, you could even aim at the enemy with binoculars when he was still not even close to targeting and deal damage. There is some kind of madness here, I see the enemy, he is in the target, the distance is not great, and the spell stupidly disappears??!! Is this normal or is there something wrong with me??
PS Perhaps someone has already answered this question, but I searched everything, no matter what requests I made, but did not find anything. It's just, strangely, the effective range of spells has changed so much, but no one says anything about it anywhere, as if I alone know how attack spells worked in other from range games.
