Someone found these whilst datamining the game. Probably gonna be used in dlc boss fights in the same way some stuff from Arotrias of The Abyss was in vanilla Dark Souls' files.

Third one especially seems like final boss music. Battle against an angel maybe?
>>
sounds cool.

final boss of dlc is Velka
>>
>>336278428
What if it's The bearer of the curse
>>
>>336278898
bearer of the curse was already a boss though
>>

Gertrude? Would be nice.

"No"
>>
First one is obviously a fight of some significance lore wise and spectacle.
Second seems more toned down, maybe a mob type boss with multiple targets or a "sad" fight
3 is obviously some creepy shit that will surprise you with its appearance
>>
>>336279287
Wouldn't it be the final boss?
>>
>>336279416
Yhorm is a giant...
>>
>>336279437
that's what I thought too but the door to the cage is open and a trail of feathers leads there. the person in the cage is most likely one of the people worshipping her in secret, like the corpse with the winged set (who happens to be too small to be one of the actual fatsos)

Could be Kaathe/Frampt/The Primordial Serpents.

>boss 3
Aldia
>>
>>336279335
Wjolnir is the king of the "sand kingdom". He is not and never was the bearer of the curse. He conquered many kingdoms, destroyed their crowns and made himself king of everything.
>>
>>336279947
>the friend that Yhorm failed to protect

That was Siegward.

Aldia is definitely going to show up in the DLC though
>>
Anyone else hope the DLC comes out in the summer like 2 did? I don't want to have to wait till after college starts up again.
>>
>>336279287
>>336279324
>>336279335
Unless Aldia's ending is non-canon, then BotC was incorporated into the Soul of Cinder, like Gwyn and CU and other guys.
>>
>>336279909
first boss is Kaathe, then Frampt then the last boss is the creature with hundreds of heads at the base of all the serpents, the Furtive Pygmy
>>
>>336280239
>unless Aldia's ending is non-canon...
Aldia end is the canon end to DaS2, I thought we all agreed on this
>>
>>336280239
No he wasnt. Since he didnt link the flame. He left with that anti-hollow crown to find a new path between the Age of Light and Age of Dark
>>
>>336280321
Furtive Pygmy was Manus, you already killed him
>>
>>336278898
Final boss of the game was a fusion of the chosen undead and gwyn. So maybe final boss of an Abyss themed dlc should be a fusion of manus/nashandra and the bearer of the curse.
>>
>>336280440
No Furtive Pygmy wasnt Manus. DELETE THIS FANFIC
>>
>>336280167
Nah famygdala

Yhorm dropped his shield, like, midway through his career, but he only distributed the Stormrulers just before he became a Lord of Cinder. Siegward lived after the unknown friend died
>>
>>336280440
and then he came back as nashandra.
Might as well kill him a third time. It is dark souls 3 after all and he is the dark soul

>>
>>336279947
>Aldia being a boss
Why? He's a good guy. He was even mentoring Lothric.
I also see no point in him being a boss considering he's an immortal fuck, and he only fights you in 2 to test your might.
>>
>>336280448
I need this.
>>
>>336280643
>He's a good guy. He was even mentoring Lothric.
Uh? When?
>>
>>336280532
shut the fuck up, there is literally 0 reason to specify that Manus was the "primeval" human unless they wanted to imply that he was the original
>>
Reminder that there'll be 2 DLCs
>>
>>336280643
>mentoring Lothric along their path of pursuing forbidden sorceries and unspeakably evil experiments
yeah, what a good guy

1st dlc:

Lords of Londor

2nd DLC

Something to do with angels
>>
Velka please.
>>
Anyone care to explain why you only get three Lord Souls in the original Dark Souls but in DS2 you collect 4?

Gwyn and Seath only had pieces of a Lord souls when you fight them yet their souls resurrected count as Lord Souls in DS2.

Who the fuck was aldia again?

I platinumed das2 and then never touched it after that. especially not for SotFS
>>
>>336278159
2nd boss music sounds like a mix of church music and a darker tone.
Ludleth as a boss maybe?
>>
>>336280931
its an inconsistency that's been brought up since day 1 of DaS2's release.

just ignore it
>>
How come no one talks about why the hell Laddersmith Gilligan is in the Profaned Capital? What is the significance of that?
>>
>>336280983

Fires a torrential volley of souls.

but why?
>>
>>336281392
Honestly makes me curious about how some of these guys would do against Allant in Demon's Souls.
>>
>>336280983
He's the guy who found out how to turn hollows into dragons. In Vanilla DS2 you just go to "Aldia's Keep" and learn very little about him.

In SotFS you discover that he is the scholar of the first sin (presumably, the first sin is Gywn's linking of the flame, I think). With his help you also find a way to essentially break the curse of hollowing via the crowns.

I'm not sure why you fight Aldia in the end, but whateves.
>>
>>336281393
I don't think a DLC 3 is planned.

But from should go all out and just make a full on expansion after the first two
>>
>>336281184

Fuck
>>
>>336280239

For all we know The BotC could still be fucking shit up, he could be the Skull Knight of Dark Souls.
>>
>>336281473
The references to it, such as Creighton in the sunless realm quest line would suggest it's the same place.
>>
>>336281559
That's fine, might as well challenge yourself and see how fast you get fucking destroyed.
>>
>>336281512
>I'm not sure why you fight Aldia in the end, but whateves.

Considering he talks in the cutscene after the fight I think it was some sort of trial.
>>
>>336281392

You're literally defending a mechanic that is actually broken

Fucking kill yourself
>>

There are only two DLCs planned.

It's going to be Londor and something else, no way they are going to waste the dlcs with boring ass locations

It's ok I guess.
I wish they'd tone it down with the bombast choir in every single theme. I'm definitely preferring BB's soundtrack still, while it also had those choir, it put them to better use in my opinion.
So soundtrack wise, my top three are still DeS > BB > DaS (on a good day, it might be BB = DaS but whatever)
>>
>>336281819
When I played DaS I and DaS 2 I just built up full heavy armor build with greatsword in one arm and greatshield in other arm. I was literaly unbeatable, since you could easily troll the bosses in DaS I, DaS 2
>>
>>336281837
you can see two locations in the distance when you look from where you raise the banner after Vordt. One is behind Irythill and looks like a smaller village and the other one like a bigger city on the right.

It's just a /vg/ conspiracy theory.

DaS3 Soul Stream
>Sorcery imparted by the first of the Scholars, when Lothric and the Grand Archives were but young. Fires a torrential volley of souls. The first of the Scholars doubted the linking of the fire, and was alleged to be a private mentor to the Royal Prince.

DaS2 Soul Geyser
>This blasphemous spell is a family heirloom of Lord Aldia's. It was designed to pummel foes until its power is entirely exhausted."

anon from /dsg/ also made a translation pastebin, and basically Soul Stream and Soul Geyser are spelt exactly the same in jap version and have the exact same meaning, but the english translation is different (probably because it's a mechanically different spell).

>http://pastebin.com/8SnskKPB
>Soul Stream ソウルの奔流 Soul Torrent ソウルの奔流 It should be noted that in Japanese, this is the same spell as "Soul Geyser" in Dark Souls 2. Also, the description of the spell in 2 calling it a family heirloom is erroneous; It is said to be An-Dil's (Aldia's) "legacy", suggesting that he created it.

There is also the Scholar Ring
>In Lothric, the Scholar has long been considered one of the Three Pillars of the king's rule, and is therefore master of the Grand Archives.

I personally think that Aldia being Oceiros' advisor sounds rather reasonable, besides after all Aldia was famous for his experiments with dragons, and Shanalotte/Ocelotte are, in fact, weirdly similar names.
>>
>>336281989
Interesting to see DeS at number 1. Which fight themes do you point to in order to help explain why DeS is numero uno? Astrae goes without saying.
>>
>>336281819
Das1 poise was broken yes but i am not defending it
das3 has DeS hyper armor which is actually balanced

I think DeS as a whole makes a better use of instrumentation than every other soul game after it. I feel like back then they were trying to create memorable songs, and not just aim to be as "epic" as possible. The instrumentation is a lot less clustered and there are more melodies, which is what I greatly prefer.
It's hard to pinpoint what theme I like the most, but I'll go with either the intro theme or Old king allant.
What I like most about Demon Souls' OST is that mostly every theme is different, which is something that the newer installments are lacking - they aim for being as bombast as possible and in return everything sounds the same and most of the OST is forgettable.

>SCHOLAR OF LOTHRIC
FOCUSED ON ALDIA, PROFANED CAPITAL AND YHORM. MOSTLY A FOLLOWUP TO DAS2'S PLOTLINES. MAYBE PURSUER SHOWS UP

>>336283921
But dark souls 3 tho
>>
>>336285069
I think this is worst in DaS2, there's literally nothing I remember. There's few themes of DaS3 that stand out, but the ones that do are pretty good. Twin princes, Aldritch and Dancer are among the strongest entries in 3.

*in my opinion, of course.

Looks like release dates have already been confirmed, first is in fall 2016, second is "early" 2017.

https://www.vg247.com/2016/04/27/dark-souls-3-second-add-on-wont-release-until-2017/

I'm glad they're putting that much time into them, they might actually be pretty substantial.

We might actually see two expansions that each individually rival The Old Hunters in scale
>>
>>336285447
Vordt's soundtrack is literally the only one I can remember, and that's just because of the vocal chorus that kicks in during the second phase.
>>
How would you feel about a new ending in the DLC? Would you be mad that you had to pay to unlock the "true" ending, or would you be happy for something with a little more closure, assuming it's like Scholar?
>>
>>336285447
I really dug Soul of Cinder, but that was mainly because of the callback to Gwyn's theme catching me totally off guard.
>>
>>336286321
they also just combined everything they had planned for bloodborne cause they have a lot going on
>>
>>336285763
It's a shame really, I'd be interested to see what DaS3's OST would be like if you removed some of the choir samples.

off topic: what is up with these changing captchas holy shit
>>
>>336286521
That's not relevant. The smashed the two planned DLCs together and allegedly this let them actually fit MORE into it. But ignoring all that, they still had all the content ready for Fall. If the first DLC is aimed for fall, we could still see something as big as ToH. Each zone and set of bosses seems to take about a month to make once it's DLC. So if we're waiting until November, we can probably expect 3-4 bosses and 2-3 zones.

I'd love to see more of the Profaned Capitol. Was def my favorite area in the game, really felt like an old, lost city in ruins. The bonfire in that ruined tower was so fucking cool looking.

>>336285792
I really hope so, was disappointed with the lack of DS2 references in 3. I was hoping to see more reference to the Crowns and the BotC, but I was also hoping for some reference to Alsanna, too.

She was probably one of my top favs of the whole game, I found her intriguing. A shard of Manus who actually seemed GOOD, but in her dialogue making reference to how powerful your soul must be, there was an unmistakable greed beginning to creep into her voice. I loved it and her.

I'll probably end up playing it all again at once in a few years rather than buying the DLC at release.

It was underwhelming. Like literally the cutscene was like 5 seconds long. The path to unlock it was disjointed as fuck. Why do I need dark sigils? For what purpose? Why not just give me more dark sigils via "draw out true strength?" Why kill and absorb them from anri? How the fuck does my character even know he is supposed to impale her fucking skull? No one told or mentioned that detail to him at all. Everyone just said "oh hey, its a wedding!" and then all of a sudden you are just murdering her out of fucking nowhere. Crazy ass shit. If I knew that was going to happen, I wouldn't have done it.

Its the equivalent of if Andre asked you if you wanted to go get some drinks together, and you choose "YES" and then you go to meet him and you instantly get a cutscene of you smashing his skull in and then drinking his blood. Its just WTF out of nowhere shit that forces your character into doing something you never signed up for. I was playing as a noble paladin faith build trying to protect the innocent, next thing I know, I am killing Anri for no reason with no explanation or warning or even the slightest idea that this is what is going to happen.
>>
>>336293932
I noticed that the third phase of the Demon King seems to also pluck some notes from Gwyn's fight. I actually really loved that moment. I haven't really delved deep into the lore but I was always under the impression that he was a descendant of the Old Iron King, who himself was descended from Gwyn's Soul. So that was a cool moment for me
>>
>>336293862

Memeing aside, its honestly worth it

Bloodborne feels so much more well designed compared to Dark Souls 3.

I'm not saying 3 is bad, but I don't feel the love poured into the game if there was any.

>>336294236
you need dark sigils for the necessary power to be a vessel for the Flame

you can only ever draw out 5 from your own body.

you stab Anri to steal 3 from her, supercharging yourself. It's honestly no biggie since you're both undead, and she's there bowing to you in the Usurpation ending, next to the Yuria ladies.

Spot the poorfag NEET

Buying a console for a game you really want to play is fine, because you'll have the console for the next 5 fucking years. There will be shit you'll want to play on it, and there is also probably shit on it you would like if you tried

But this is /v/, where most anons scrimp and save their mommy's allowance to afford things, so I don't expect most of you to understand that concept.

Cool, how does my character know about this though, its not explained, you are never told to stab her in the face with the thing, or that doing so will give you dark sigils, or that you need dark sigils for power to be a vessel for the flame.

Kill yourself.

>>336297223
Cool, thanks for explaining that again, but you are still ignoring my question. How do you know any of that.

From your characters perspective, its just Yuria saying you got a wedding because you cant be a lord without a wife. But she found a wife and she is waiting for you here. The pilgrim gives you the Vow item, which I assumed based on the item description and the pilgrim dialogue would work similar to wedding rings- you exchange vows.

But then you get there and stab her in the face without explanation or warning. Then she very much appears to be dead- you gain souls from the affair, she is laying there motionless impaled in the skull, and doesn't move. You can come back at any point in the game, and she is still there, dead and motionless.

Yuria or anyone else never says anything about this helping her or saving her. She only congratulates you on the wedding and thats it. Then if you frame by frame the last 5 seconds of the game, you can see her there in the background so I guess SURPRISE you saved her but with no explanation or understand of how or why, or why you character did that or how he even knew that was what he was supposed to do.
