Where will they go with the DLC?
Personally I'm hoping for some closure regarding the Primordial Serpents - I was really surprised they weren't in DaS3 base game, even if only in the Usurpation cutscene.
Something about 'Gertrude', a figure mentioned pretty often on souls, would be nice too.
Might be nice to go back to Painted World and maybe encounter Velka at long last - there are endless theories about how she influenced DaS1 to punish the Gods. Plus I think there were a couple of item descriptions that hinted Priscilla might still be alive.
I also want to know the story of Yorshka.
>>335675848
I want to go there. It wasn't in the game
OP here, just remembered that I did see a Primordial Serpent in DaS3.
>>335677225
Majestic
Judging by the fact that DaS3 reveals very little about the Profaned Flame and The Deep, the two DLC will likely be about them.
>The Deep DLC
>Journey to the Dark Souls version of Atlantis
>Turns out there is some scary shit living in the Dark souls oceans.
>Fight not-Cthulhu, you can only put him back to sleep.
>Eventually he'll wake up again and bring the Age of Deep Sea and there is nothing you can do about it.
>>335677172
>people thougth those things are humanity going rampage
>From doesn't even explain them
nice.
>>335675848
definitely abyss related stuff with a serpent or too. Hopefully something that explains the firekeeper background, there's no way that the scene of her slowly picking up what looks like the Ivory Crown means nothing.
>>335677920
Because we didn't get to see them. It was cut
>>335675848
>Go back in time again
>Lothric is still a nice built up place filled with normies
>The challenging new combat requires you to interact with the normies and pretend the ashen one is a functional human
>Boss fights involve you meeting royalty and being properly respectful
One of the early screenshots showed the Dancer as a non-hostile NPC, so I'm guessing that one of the DLC would involve time traveling to Sully's takeover of Irithyll/Anor Londo and probably delve into the Deep as well.
There's plenty of dummied out stuff for them to use
>>335677172
>>335678921
Strange right. Both most marketed images isn't in the game.
That one with the dancer even have Wyrms flying around and some Lothric lookalike. Even the sky is not in the game.
>Yfw you slowly come to the realisation that the game was rushed
>The Pontiff's Eyes turning the Irithyll Knights into beasts was a slapdash attempt to justify the removal of the Dancer NPC
>You never got to see the Black Sun and the Abyss in full force
>The Kiln was empty.
>>335680136
>The Pontiff's Eyes turning the Irithyll Knights into beasts
What ?
>>335679714
is there a list?
i heard that files for a lot of unused weapons are still in the game
would like to know more if i could

Can somebody check this please.
I'd love something regarding the pigmy/serpents.
>>335680374
Read the descriptions of the rings.
Pontiff gave his Knights powerful rings and sent them away on missions far away. The rings Evebtually turn them into beasts. That's why Vordt acts like a dog and Dancer/Frost knights are partially beastial.
>>335682352
I think they touched a little about the serpents.
They were the first kind of Everlasting Dragons.
>>335682112
At least one of them are going to bring back the Abyss since Yuria mentions Kaathe.
The other might include Aldia.
>>335682723
CONFIRMED SOLARIE SON OF GWYN GET FUCKED.
>>335677172
I remember when Dark Souls 3 was first announced they were talking about it as an apocalypse more intense than what we have seen before. I think that whole last area was supposed to be big and filled with this shit as the whole world exploded and instead we just get a teleport to the boss.
I hope the DLC really expands on the deep, the whole Londor ending and perhaps gives a little closure? I hope they don't just add an irrelevant area.
>>335682943
Even though there's much more evidence pointing to Nameless King being his first born? Come on anon
At most this pendant makes the whole "Gwyn's firstborn is Nameless King who later becomes known as DaS2's Faraam, God of War' thing much more concreteI'll never understand people's blind obsession with Solaire
something about gwynyvere we never see her real self only a ilussion maybe something about velka and the serpents and of course aldia
>>335683280
What if Nameless King is Solarie? Looks like he survived Lost Izalith and helped the CU kill his father.
>>335683435
There are statues of her. Same thing as Gwyndolinn ilusions.
>>335683441
Well it's not NOT a possibility but there's not really anything to suggest that. It's an original idea though. Haven't heard of that
I'm going to flip my shit if the DLC won't have the Serpents or Aldia.
>>335677172
>>335677920
>>335679848
If you ever played Armored Core you would know it's FROM's specialty to show something awesome off on the cover/opening cutscene and then completely disregard it in-game.
>>335683582
I think you can summon him to fight Gwyn if you save him in Lost Izalith... so it's possible.
>>335683515
where in das 3?
>>335683582
>>335683441
Nameless King had already joined the Dragons by the time of CU. Everything about him was already stripped away from history.
The medallion is cut content. Stop clinging to it. Nameless King is referred as the heir of Lighting. He is Gwyn's heir.
>>335683716
Anor Londo.

>>335683679
I don't remember AC intros too well, but don't they all have Armored Cores you can actually encounter in the game as enemies? For example Nexus's opening has Evangel who is one of the major characters later in Last Raven. Or AC:FA's opening has White Glint.
>>335683732
Huh, you have a point. Sorry other anon, but Solaire couldn't have become the nameless firstborn of Gwyn if the nameless firstborn of Gwyn already existed
>>335682943
Ah, fan fiction
>>335683732
So who is the Nameless King? Maybe he just really is a forgotten King?
>>335683981
The Firstborn
>>335683981
Gwyn older son, his firstborn.
He joined the dragons during the War and his father erased everything about him.
>>335684025
>>335684079
So the Nameless King made the Warrior of Sunlight? And Solarie is just some random undead clingy to this?
>>335683981
Gwyn's firstborn, who is also the patron deity of SunBros covenant. He also most likely trained Ornstein.
>Ring of the Sun's first born, who inherited the light of Gwyn, the first lord. The Sun's first born was once a god of war, until he was stripped of his stature as punishment for his foolishness. No wonder his very name has slipped from the annals of history. (Ring of the Sun's Firstborn)
>The symbol represents Lord Gwyn's firstborn, who lost his deity status and was expunged from the annals. But the old God of War still watches closely over his warriors. (DaS1 Sunlight Medal)
>The Nameless King was once a dragon-slaying god of war, before he sacrificed everything to ally himself with the ancient dragons. (Soul of the Nameless King)
>Crown of a nameless king who was ally to the ancient dragons. This golden crown, buried amidst long strands of bristling ash, is said to closely resemble that of the First Lord. (Golden Crown)
>The Nameless King, ally of the ancient dragons, fought beside the Stormdrake in countless battles. When the great beast fell, the king claimed his soul, as was the custom in the age of gods. (Storm Curved Sword)
>A dragon hunting weapon from the age of the gods. The earliest form of the cross spear, serving as both a sword and a spear. Its owner was the Nameless King, a deific hunter of dragons. The swordspear is imbued with lightning, of which he was the heir. (Dragonslayer Swordspear)
>Miracle of the Nameless King, ally to the ancient dragons. Calls forth furious bolts of lightning. Once a slayer of dragons, the former king and wargod tamed a Stormdrake, on which he led a lifetime of battle. This miracle is likely a tale of their bond. (Lightning Storm miracle)
>Ornstein was the first knight of the sun's eldest born, and his cross spear is said to have pierced scales made of stone. (Leo Ring)
>>335684185
Don't know if he MADE the covenant, but he is the deity associated with it. And yes, Solaire is just some nobody undead but who possess tremenduous Faith.
>>335677359
Old codger
Probably fucking nowhere, just like they did with the base game.
>>335683981
Gwyn's firstborn. But you also find Ornstein's armour there but not his body and he also uses Ornstein's moves. The whole thing could just be in your head though or an illusion, I mean just ringing the bell makes you cower and he completely annihilates his mount so there's nothing left and somehow you kill him? makes no sense really
Don't care about the story, but I want some more classic character armour, namely Ciaran and Gough.
>>335684689
stop with this illusion shit.
>>335684689
The description for Sacred Oath suggests Nameless and Ornstein are buddies, so that would possibly explain that.
>>335677172
isnt this kindle of the last flame...just look at the structure and the sun...all the same
>>335684415
if I remember correctly, there's an item in DaS3 that suggests that Nameless King thought the gods and dragons could liver together, presumably being the reason he was banished or "his foolishness". Do you happen to know what item it is?
Since this is the last souls game I would love to see the broken archstone from demons souls
So what exactly happens at the bonfire that resets enemies? Are you resetting time?
I know it's just a mechanic to repop the level, but what's the lore explanation?
>>335684729
How is it wrong? It doesn't matter anyway since we don't canonically kill him.
>>335684810
Yes, it's probably the Kiln and not some completely different cut area. The bleeding sun got replaced with Darksign in the sky, and both the picture and Kiln have similar warped landmass of buildings.
>>335684989
Time is convoluted is just Deus Ex for gameplay mechanics. There isn't one.
>>335685015
He's canonically fucking dead. Did you even play the game?
>>335685137
Gwyndolin was killed by Aldritch, not by DaS1 MC, moron.
>>335685214
Yea because he is a hiding faggot. CU never saw dark Anor Londo.
Ornstein turned into a dragon so NK can fuck his ass. Ornstein = king of storms. This is why you don't find a corpse, only his armor. He took it off before he used some super dragon stones.
>>335685394
Exactly
>>335685035
but i had a bleeding sun in my game..maybe it differs for what kind of ending you are approaching?
>>335685503
What if ornsteinis the dragon the NK is riding?
What the fuck is Ashen One doing in thekilling Firekeeper ending? Why does the game repeatthe opening movie's words?
>>335685731
what if ornstein is the dragon and smough nk?
>>335685805
He tries to trigger the DLC ending where the fire descends from the eclipse to fight you
>>335685731
What if Ornstein was Smough and the dragon was the Nameless King?
>>335682943
No? Everyone knows the firstborn is Patches.
>>335686192
What happened to the corpse-bonfire concept? When you stick your coiled sword in a hollow, remember that?
>>335683441
Solaire is the worm you find in Smoldering Lake anon.
>>335686286
What if Patches is the Nameless King and vendor Patches is the dragon?
>>335682562
It's bloodborne all over again
>>335686192
Smough is NK, he was just hiding in the Armor.
>>335686287
>>335686686
What if Nameless the Smough and Ornstein dragon was King was?
>>335678921
I remember how I though the game is going to be extremly dark with Bloodborne-like spooky places and everything going down, even more than the other games to the point that you literally see the world around you falling apart in the final stages.
But instead we got this.
>>335686356
is there any indication that that ever was a "concept"? Likely they just put it in the trailer because that looked cool.
>>335687253
I remember talks about a "sacrifice mechanic".
>>335687253
There was a ingame cutscene of the MC shoving a drilled sword into a white corpse, making it burn in the trailer.
>>335687454
talk by people who watched and interpreted that video. The devs never mentioned anything like it.
>>335675848
I want to fight my Dark Lord from DS1
>>335687541
That's what I was talking about when I said they probably just put it in to look cool.
>>335683231
I was really hyped when I saw that twisted wavy landscape. I really wanted to navigate trough those sideway buildings. I wanted so much more from the game.
>>335678921
that's a pontiff knight placeholder, same goes for the dragons flying, they became those shitty butterfly thingies
>>335684415
na na na cant hear you its solaire bro its solaire 420 praise it!!!!
>>335685503
actually he got bored and went to the beach to have a beach party
DLC will be beach party volleyball minigame
>>335683441
>>335683280
That pendant's description is just a copy of the sunlight medal description. Get it together.
>>335689474
but the sunlight medal description is different in 3.
>>335690039
So it's got the DaS1 sunlight medal description. It indicates nothing, just that a cut item has a placeholder description.
>>335690191
>le placeholder description
>>335690473
Nice retordt
If Velka was a boss fight I might get off my ass and actually buy the game.
