What a shitty boss. Why does /v/ hype this up as the best boss ever, he's just a super edgy generic "strafe right" Knight.

Please explain why he's any better than any other "knight with a sword" boss in the Souls games? He's literally exactly the same as all the rest, except he's all dark and edgy and honorable, which I guess is appealing.

It's the background to his character that everyone likes. Every souls boss is pretty similar if you think about it, there's some variety like when there's a bunch of doppelgangers, or having to take out a bunch of skeles, but for the most part it's just roll here, strafe there.
>>
people hype him up because of his backstory more than the fight itself, it's a pretty meh fight
>>
>>333850461
who gives a shit about your fucking opinion, jesus christ. most people like him, you don't. whoop-de-fucking-hoo.
>>
>>333851085
>>333851205
a lot of people say it's the best fight in the game, which is wrong
>>
>>333851526
of course it's wrong, it's not even the best fight in the DLC because manus and kalameet exist
>>
>>333851085
>judging a boss by his backstory and not by gameplay
>the backstory isn't even fleshed out
Nice.
>>
le tragic knight, he could stomp gwyn if his arm wasnt fucked up, but he sacrificed himself to save pupper ;-; emotional
>>
>>333851931
ok anon what was your favorite boss then, pray tell?
>>
>>333850461
>strafe right
no. as someone who has cooped arty very many times, that is...not the strat.

>>333850461
>strafe right
You're not gonna beat artorias like that
>>
>>333852227
In Souls? Probably the Penetrator. Souls games don't have very good gameplay compared to other aRPGs.
>>
I know this is bait but I like discussing the fight anyways. It's just a fun fight, he reacts very well to your movements, try's to hit you shen you heal, and you really have to base your movements around when he fucks up just to get a swing in. I liked it, his hyper aggression made for a fun fight.

I had full upgraded giant's armor and a zwei, so I killed him in 6 hits.
>>
His music is shit. You can barely hear it anyways.

This is why I don't come to /v/ as regularly as before

>>333850461
Awesome design and animations, very aggressive, cool moves, good and hyped backstory and you actually cant just strafe right like you said.

>Kalameet is a good boss
Fucking how?
You can literlly stand behind him and make him do that tail swing over and over again
Shitty boss no lore boss
>>
Atmosphere, design, moves. I like how almost every single attack he does is a dash, jump or something like that.
>>
DON'T STOP ME NOW, I'M POSTING IT AGAIN.

Also, I love how this thread has more posters than my own (>>>333845795), I'm pretty butthurt about that. Guess I'll have to start my threads with obvious bait next time in order to get replies.

Vote for the best boss here.

yeah and you can shoot manus from outside the fog gate, that doesn't make the boss shit just because you choose to cheese it
>>
>>333852616
Quality Zwei build? Otherwise bullshit as Arty had great elemental defense.

He was a little too easy if you had endgame maxed out weapon and armor.
>>
>>333852918
>You can literlly stand behind him and make him do that tail swing over and over again
nope, incorrect.
>>
>>333853021
Don't worry anon im moving to your thread.
This one is shit anyways
>>
>>333853021
why make fucking pinwheel an option?
>>
>>333852918
>You can literlly stand behind him and make him do that tail swing over and over again
Kek, I'd like to see you try
>>
Artorias is actually pretty good despite the memes, but fume knight is really fuckin retard and not that good at all, ivory is way better
>>

>People voting for Bed of Chaos

>>333853358
They were all options, every boss that's classified as a boss (minibosses like Doran and chalice dungeon bosses weren't included for size reasons. Also I couldn't remember them all).

Some got eliminated in the first round of voting.
