I'll start with the obvious: Chaotic Evil

Lawful Evil for Ornstein?
>>
>>275062785
>>275063157
Those two would both be lawful evil you mongoloids
>>
>>275064327
Personally I think you need to be chaotic evil to eat people, a lawful evil wouldn't be a cannibal. IMO the 9 alignments don't even cover it, you need at minimum another layer.

Smough would be chaotic lawful evil
>>
>>275064327
How is Smough Lawful Evil? he's basically described as a horrible abomination by everyone/everything that mentions him. Even Frampt considers eating his soul worth just 1 soul.
>>
>>275064687
I think because someone somehow convinced him to guard the door. I mean, if he was truly Chaotic Evil no one would be able to tell him what to do, he wouldn't see the purpose in obeying a command and fuck off to do what he wanted

This is easy. Neutral evil.

why they even "evil" tho?
Ornstein was protecting the royalty, that was kinda the shit he was appointed to and he did his best doing it
If anything he would be Lawful Good
>>
>>275064847
That makes sense I guess, but I feel like Smough could teeter on the line between both Lawful and Neutral since he's so brutal and just barely obeying those commands. His motivation for guarding also seems to be the fact that he gets to stay Executioner, so it is self-serving.
>>
>Smough is the royal executioner of Anor Londo. He longs to be ranked with the Four Knights, but his cruelty, including using his victim's bone as his food's seasoning, forever denied the position.

Lawful neutral?
>>
>>275064986
Again, why would you then take such great pleasure in killing people that you put their bone meal in your food? It means you take some kind of catharsis out of killing or in the knowledge of the dead of your enemies, that's not neutral. Neutral Evil is usually for lazy people who'd rather not pick an alignment, but if you force them to, they'll go with evil just because it's easier or something.

I'm no expert on alignments. It'd help if we knew how he was persuaded to guard the door.

Lawful or neutral evil makes sense.

Artorias chaotic good (willing to make deals with demonic monstruosities for the greater good),

Gough strikes me as neutral good.

Too little Ciaran, but since she's Artorias' waifu I'd go for chaotic good too.

You can't seriously say it sounds the same as RRA's, Flexile, Mytha, Nashandra, or even Velstadt's theme.

Pinwheel's theme at least has a unique sound to it, it's slow an spooky and evokes a voodoo feel and has whispering in the background

Fume knight is just BUM BUM BUM BUM chrous chant BUM BUM BUM chorus chant which is like three quarters of the songs in Ds2
>>
>>275068950
I think they retconned that storyline in the regular game. Everyone THOUGHT he made a contract with the snakes but in reality he just got wrecked by Manus and forcibly turned to the abyss.

Still don't know where the Covenant of Artrorias fits into the new story
>>
>>275069174

Yes, I much prefer [chanting intensifies] like in Dark Souls. There are only like, 5 good songs in each game max. Let's not kid ourselves here. Then again, this is a board that thinks that Dark Souls had a plethora of memorable characters.
>>
>>275068950

That's just the legend surrounding him in the non-DLC present day Souls world, where he made a deal to become a drakrwraith and shit. In the DLC you go back and learn that he fell victim to the abyss, he didn't voluntarily make a pact with it

deepest lore
>>
>>275068950
Yeah. He made the covenant to save Oolacile, but found himself overwhelmed by the Abyss because he had no defence against the dark because of his lack of Humanity. His last desperate action was to save is bestest friend ;_;

I'll agree that most are pretty similar and say that Demon's souls boss tunes were way better. But the chanting of shit like the Gaping Dragon's music or O&S music is just a lot more recognizable than the chanting tunes of DS2

Fume Knight's theme at least has a unique sound to it, it's a fiery war chant and evokes a feeling of utmost dread and power because of the gloomy chants and martial drums in the background.

Pinwheel is just "bing bong" 2spookywhisper "bing bong doo doo".

I don't know how you could forget fighting something as unique as the gaping dragon

If you had played Des before Ds1 he was probably a lot easier but I played through Ds1 blind, offline, and as my first souls game and he took me a good amount of tries to beat

I... agree?
>>
>>275069669
I'm gonna go with O&S because those guys pushed my shit in for so many hours before I finally beat them. Granted it was my first ever souls playthrough and I did it entirely offline (without learning how to summon and running a shit build)

It really doesn't because no other souls song sounds like pinwheel's

Half of them sound like fume knight's

>>
>>275069974

I played DaS first, DeS second and DaS2 third. Gaping Dragon was never hard, in fact, the only difficult bosses with Ornstein and Smough and Gwyn because I didn't know you could parry him in my first playthrough.

Das1 was my first souls game and I beat it solo, barely any effort. I didn't even dodgeroll. Just fatly ran away when it came near and went for the legs.

But what I like about Souls is that every single person has a different experience. Some struggle with O&S for weeks, others get them on the first or second try, but then they have an issue with the Four Kings.
>>
I just noticed that pretty much no one you fight in the entire game is actually 'evil'.

Everyone has their purpose for doing things, and usually it is justified.

Demons are evil but they were born from the recreation of the first flame, which wasn't done for any evil reason.

No, the legend is that he won. He was sent there in the first place because he was the abyss fucking walker so who better to do the job?

The ring is still an essential part on beating the game, and nothing directly tell us it was all a ruse. You can't just assume it's retconed when the storyline is shaky enough as it is.

Also fuck this awful captcha.

It was funny for me because i played Monster Hunter games a lot before i played any Souls game.
And Gaping, as well as most big Souls monsters are just Monster Hunter bosses turned into slow retards.
>>
>>275070348
Not that guy either and Gaping wasn't difficult for me. In fact the AI barely seemed interested in me. I got hit maybe three times, it seemed like it was too busy running into walls and chilling there. Was quite easy for me.

Before him though, I had huge issues with the Bell Gargoyles and Capra Demon. And right now I'm struggling hard with the Sanctuary Guardian, so.

See now people are telling me about how easy Gaping was for them but I beat Capra first try by fleeing towards the only thing I noticed in the room, the stairs, and quickly killing the dogs without much issue. From there I think I ate like one attack and just chipped him down with the battle axe no problem. Now when I fight gaping dragon he's just a tank that repeats his vagina slam and forward crawl but I'll swear when I first fought him I must've gotten unlucky or had stupid positioning cause he would swipe and puke and jump a lot more often

Yeah, my character is not great at dodging (and neither am I) and the SG just tears through tanking builds. My strategy so far is just holding up my shield right by the fog gate so I can definitely grab my remains after I die. I've mostly gotten its melee patterns down, but even with a thunderplate ring on and the shield of Artorias it's still destroying me with its thunder attacks.

Lautrec was doing it for his goddess.
Seath was pretty god damn evil.

And Manus and Nashandra were just spreading the Dark, which isn't really "evil". It's just the course of nature, and its also the "age of man", so that's not really bad.

Manus destroyed Oolacile which resulted in who knows how many deaths and Nashandra manipulated Vendrick into stealing from the giants which resulted in a war that cost hundreds/thousands of lives on either side. After seeing all the men it cost Drangleic to try and hold back the giants, men who had nothing to do with Vendrick's and Nashandra's plan and especially after meeting Captain Drummond, I can't really say Nashandra is anything but in the evil column.

It might be a neutral evil, but I'd still put them in that column

Almost every single character revolves around the bearer of the curse except maybe for Pate and Creighton, the only ones that don't travel back to Majula to serve your every whish, and even them were handled very poorly in my opinion, since no matter who you choose to save, both of them lure you into a trap.

thats what i think too. its too plainly obvious when you think about it.

i mean from the start, even before the DLC's, when all we had was his greatshield, you have to think, what in DS2's world would make Vendrick's Left hand man go against him?

When you look at how fucking deep vendrick had to go to stop Nashandra's machinations, you realize that he probably got redpilled hard and was labeled a traitor for going against the queen.

The whole "black fog" bit makes it more apparent. he had the power to eradicate the Dark. He could have exorcized Nadalia if he wanted to. But he gave in instead due to his newfound desire for strength after getting rekt

Probably because Solaire's world and adventure more closely mirror our own as Chosen undead. He is his world's chosen undead, but occasionally crosses over into our world due to timespace being fucked.

When he's in our world he converses with us and leaves his sign so we can summon him from his world to help.

if you don't kill the chaos bug, it posesses him while he's in our world, and so we kill him in our world.

TL;DR time fuckery- but it doesnt mean that all NPC's will be alive and well in their world if they die in ours.

God I loved the first Souls even if it had flaws (GFWL) but the second game lacked a LOT the first game had.
And now From shits all over fans because they will eat it anyways.
I haven't bought dlc, I won't buy the "rerelease" of the game for the patch that should be for free.

More than Patches, he helps you, he leaves a summoning sign along Solaire and he never attacks you unless you attack him first. All he did was kill a horribly crippled firekeeper for unknown reasons.

Played the game one time offline for the atmosphere and armour. That knight Lautrec seems like a lover hero to me: bearer of the favour of the goddess and his armour has a hands of a goddess hugging him. Based on his words that he "has his time with the firekeeper", her own words that she "is impure" and widespread trope of adventurous knight and common girl trope i assume that it was rape through seducing. It seems pretty obvious for me that he tossed her estus. Than cut her tongue and decided to clean all evidence for sure not to lose favour of the goddess. Sorry for my bad english.

in Dark Souls 1, everything in Anor Londo, including the whole city itself is an illution of what it was before the curse.

While I did enjoy Dark Souls for the lore and all that jazz, Demon's Souls still probably holds a lot more memories for me.

If you're someone like me who goes Jack of all trades builds then you'll enjoy Demon's Souls a lot since the stat requirements aren't high for a lot of spells and miracles later in the game.
