That talking sword thing was the stupidest gimmick ever.
>>332939121
>talking sword thing gimmick
What the actual fuck are you talking about?
How do I fight Orphan of Kosm? I cant seem to summon anyone for cooperation.
>>332939121
>That talking sword thing was the stupidest gimmick ever.
What are you talking about? It's not the sword talking.
Might just be the the fact that the game is new and exciting, but i've gotta give my pick to The Nameless King (King of Storms is his other names, the translation is weird) from Dark Souls 3.
>>332939301
Just learn his moves and learn how to punish them.
Learn your weapons moveset better than your own hands and then know exactly what moves you can use at any given opportunity
This answer is for any boss ever made in video games, ever.
>>332939316
So it is my Hunter impersonating a female voice, then? Even the description says the sword talks.
>>332939889
>even the description says the sword talks
An arcane sword discovered long ago by Ludwig.
When blue moonlight dances around the sword, and it channels the abyssal cosmos, its great blade will hurl a shadowy lightwave.
The Holy Moonlight Sword is synonymous with Ludwig, the Holy Blade, but few have ever set eyes on the great blade, and whatever guidance it has to offer, it seems to be of a very private, elusive sort.
No, seriously, what the fuck are you talking about
>>332939889
Anon what the fuck are you on about m8. Everyone thinks you're high.
>>332940198
>>332940312
>whatever guidance it has to offer, it seems to be of a very private, elusive sort
More like of the shittalking sort
>>332940720
Why the fuck would the moonlight sword call beastly Ludwig "my guiding moonlight"?
Orphan of Kos.
Ludwig for a close 2nd, and Abhorrent Beast for 3rd.
>>332940897
I'm talking about when you use the sword you dip.
>>332940720
Are you actually implying its the sword thats doing the talking in the mid-fight cutscene?
How fucking retarded are you, you can even see Ludwigs mouth move.
>>332939121
>he thought the sword was talking
>>332940995
>>332941021
Well okay, do you have any proof of this shit?
Because if not, away away.
>>332939121
kek
>>332938706
I love Maria more purely because of the animu speed, but Ludwig is better designed and more hype overall.
Good taste, anon.
It's a shame no boss arena comes close to Gehrman's though.
Ludwig and Orphan are the GOAT souls bosses. Here's hoping DS3 has some bosses that can match them.
>>332938706
Gherman and Maria. I'm a sucker for Vergil fights. Especially when the music is as good as it is in both of those fights.
Its still the Gman. I havent been that hyped for a final boss in a Souls game since Allant. Gwyn was ok, an Nashandra+Monster mash were a joke
I love Micolash's crazy ass as well
>>332942619
>Gwyn was ok
I will fucking fight you, that fight was top.
>>332943483
Not that anon, but Gwyn was way too easy for a final boss. And yes, I understand there are lore implications there but that doesn't change anything. I wasn't saddened by a dying god, I was disappointed with a flaccid climax to the game. They should have given him a second phase at 50% health that wasn't piss easy, the last ounce of strength if you want to be 2deep about it. And if he DID have a second phase, holy shit he was so easy I never even noticed.

nigga skip to 3.30
you really think its the sword talking?
>>332943681
It's the presentation that really sells it for me. The music, especially, and the fact that you're fighting in the place where the First Flame was found. I won't pretend that he's the best boss in the game, but I'm an absolute sucker for fights like that, where you're practically fighting a reflection of yourself.
Shit was hype.
>>332944149
>but I'm an absolute sucker for fights like that, where you're practically fighting a reflection of yourself.
As am I, which is why I loved Gehrman and Maria. It's the Vergil fight trope. Gwyn was just too easy to qualify for me, though. The set presentation was great, sure, but actually fighting him was nowhere near the test of everything you've learned and become that it should have been.
>>332943681
Tbh Gwyn is only easy if you parry him or if you're a tank.
>>332944367
That's fine.
I guess it just wasn't too easy for me, which probably means I'm a scrub, but still.
You're a cool guy, anon.
>>332943958
>Ludwig calls the sword his mentor
Guess he enjoyed the "guidance".
>>332944582
It's okay, anon. You may have just not have a good build for him. I face-fucked him with a 2h greatsword and rolls like I do everything in these games.
>>332938706
Why is he partly a horse?
>>332939121
you're a fucking retard.
goddammit bloodborne discussion brings out the stupidest people on this site
>>332944845
Yeah, my build was two-handing the Iaito (weaponfu), and the gold-hemmed set. It helped with the fire, but, since I never really got good at parrying, it was mostly just rolling and trading blows, which I adored.
>>332944916
He's partly a whole fuckton of different animals. I forget which item it was, but something's description explains how the most devout people became the most hideous beasts, and considering he was the Healing Church's greatest Hunter or some shit it's not that surprising.

The One Reborn just because I think the music for that fight is incredible

When did loving that sword that much become a meme. Was there some kind of Ludwig the Holy Blade fan club formation event over at the /bbg/?
My favorite was the Shadows of Yarnham. I enjoyed kiting them in their environment, i thought they were badass looking like the Ringwraithes in Lord of the Rings. It was a fun fight and i liked that they had 3 phases essentially.
Rom is my least favorite
>>332945461
it has nothing to do with loving the sword, although it is the best version of it out of the games it's within due to it's great visual effects, how it ties into the lore, and it's one of the best and only Arc weapons. This is about that guy being a fucking idiot for thinking the moonlight greatsword is talking about how the moonlight greatsword was it's own guiding moonlight. What kind of fucking idiot can't discern that it's Ludwig speaking there.
>>332943681
>>332944149
Holy shit, how the fuck do you beat him?
I've played DaS 6 or 7 times across several platforms, I can beat any other boss with my eyes closed, but this faggot always tears my anus. I am on my plat run now and it just happens to be a no-shield one and holy fuck is it infuriating. Also, his hitbox detection is fucked sometimes. Like DaS2-tier of fucked.
>People have been talking about the sword cutscene the whole thread
What the fuck is up with you?
Ludwig is cute
>>332938706
If Gehrman hadn't been so easy, he would be the obvious pick for me. But he's even easier to consistently parry than Gwyn.
Probably say Gascoigne. Bloodborne's base game didn't really have many good, memorable bosses. I made the mistake of killing Gehrman before making it through the DLC, and it restarted the game and I don't really want to start playthrough 3, so just waiting on DS3.
>>332946774
Gotta put the blatantly lying rabble down.
>>332946625
The easiest and simplest route is to just parry him. That'll get the job done. But, since I have shit reflexes, I was never able to do that, and just ninja flipped all over the stage while whittling him down with my katana. If you have any armor sets that are good against fire, equip those, and you should be good.
>>332946025
How could you assume someone thinks the blade is talking in the cutscene? The voice is clearly male.
>>332947045
If you parried Gherman you never really fought him.

Post yfw first seeing this transition
>>332941174
what aboutthe moon presences'? :^)
no mention of the orphan of kos? did I fall for the meme?
>>332948379
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.You got me
>>332947738
yeah yeah whatever. same for gwyn I guessthey shouldn't have been parryable
>>332948570
Orphan is pretty good but he's mostly just hard.
Ludwig has better lore, better OST, mid battle transition, I think he's a better fight in general.
I like the one with trial and error based gameplay
no wait thats all of them
>>332938706
Lady Maria. I love her.
>>332949303
If you love her so much then why did you kill her
>>332948798
The orphan was a great boss fight, but he grinded me down so much that i couldn't enjoy it. So, I'd have to say that gerhman and maria are my favorites, with gascoigne a close third.
1) Gascoigne
2) Amelia
3) Maria
Wet Nurse could have been really good but was just too easy
>>332948798
>BAAWWW why won't the game just let me bumble my way to victory
Souls isn't hard. You just can't be a dumbass entitled shit that thinks everything has to doable according to their "playstyle" and every "build" needs to be viable.
How was Lady Maria so easy? I went into the Failures fight with about 11 vials, beat them on the first try and proceeded to stomp Maria without dying. Orphan was the only remotely challenging boss.
M A R I A

Oh, I see someone missed Laurence.
