>your first born son betrays you by siding with dragons
>fucking banish him after striping him of names and deity status
>to right next door
is Gwyn super soft daddy or is this anotherdeeepest lore
>>335860663
he may have banished him but who said he wasnt allowd to build his own shit right next door?
le time is convoluted
le all zones are merging towards the kiln
le dark souls 3 isfucking pandering all over the place, from demon souls to dark souls 2. the amount of fucking straight up 1:1 copy is staggering and shouldn't be the way to end a series. 19 bosses only FOR THE FINAL FUCKING GAME. Complete rehashing of wolf sets, ornstein sets, havel set, smough's set, and other countless armor and weapons which i wont bother listing
and in the end the bosses are all the fucking same. abyss watchers are artorias lite, aldrich is a mix of nito and gwyndolin, yhorm is a giant killed with a des weapon and gimmick usage, the twins are the only OG fight
no seriously fuck me for thinking this game was gonna be GREAT. It's Pandering: the game.
Why didn't Gwyn's son just come back and beat everyone's ass? He was clearly more powerful than every other god in Anor Londo. Dude could have torn Gwyn in half with minimal effort.
>>335861192
cuz hes a good boi anon
unlike(You)
>>335860987
What elements of Nito does Aldrich deploy?
>>335860987
Nothing wrong with pandering.I kinda agree though. I expected more out of it but they just played it safe. Still fun but I can't see myself putting in as many hours as I did with Dark Souls 1.
>>335861192
>Dude could have torn Gwyn in half with minimal effort.
Why would he want to? He's still Gwyn's son. Hell, for everything bad Gwyn did to him, he stillkept his daughter safe
>>335861362
his sword.
>>335861369
I kind of dropped it already. The PvE is boring and it's the same damn game i've already played. I expected a proper ending to the series, something that would remind of DS1 because of how good it is, not because it copies DS1 in many aspects.
And one of the great things about ds1 was the world, this time around however it's the worst in the series in terms of advancement. It's so damn linear, you're on rails for most of the game.
Even ds2 gave you more option. Granted, ds2's world building was shit, but atleast it was more open. DS3 you can't actually stray from the intended path until Cursed(?) road.
>>335860987
I'm sorry you can't enjoy fun good things.
>>335861669
lol ok bud
how do you get there
i know you sit in the dragon pose for a second and it puts you there but HOW
>>335861707
i'm sorry you can't see how this is as lazy as ds2, i wish i was this blissfully ignorant as you. My tastes would be much simpler then.
>>335861808
You hear a sound after you sleep.
Probably gargoyle-bros
Also are the gargoyles available as enemies in the game anywhere?
he probably set it up with his dragon buddies, why else would there be prayer mats that take you to dragon mecca on the outskirts of a dungeon?
>>335860987
I really liked DS3, working on my third playthrough right now, but this is absolutely correct.
For all the shit DS2 gets, at least it tried to do some new shit.
DS3 is just fucking throwing everything you might remember from previous games at players. They even remade the fucking DS1 buttress greatbow gallery segment from DS1, despite that being widely regarded as DS1 worst part. They clearly just did it to say "Hey, remember that part in DS1 you hated? Haha, see we did it again. Prepare to die! haha."
>>335861808
you get the sitting pose after you beat an optional boss in lothric castle
>Might as well be the 5th game in the series
>Still no way to mark weapons, armor, and rings as "Favorite" and have them move to the top of the list, or even have a little star next to them so you can identify them
Gee, thanks From, I love cycling through 200 god damn weapons just so I can find the one I want.
>>335862174
>expecting improvement from japanese dev
boy, have you heard of capcom and nintendoo
>>335862174
you can just put any weapons you don't use in a bin
you've been able to do that since demon's souls
>>335860987
>the "Dark Souls 3" is pandering and references meme
3 is *LITERALLY* the last _Souls game being made, of course they're going to throw in as much as they possibly can, and explain as much as do compared to the other games.
That's what the third book in a trilogy does, why would it be any different for a game?
>>335862328
This. >>335862174
is a fucking idiot.
>>335862174
There's item storage in every bonfire you stupid ass noob
>>335862410
>>335862580
I realize this you morons, but you can't access the bin when you're not at a bonfire.
I don't use bonfires often, and typically just clear levels out. Also, any item you pick up while you're in an area just continues to clutter your inventory, adding spaces between the item you have and the item you want.
"Put it in the box" is not a fucking fix you dipshits. It's a poor workaround that severely limits your options.
>>335860987
>finishes the series with reference to unexplained bits/back stories to older games
>complains
What are you even looking for?
>>335861192
He didn't care enough to do so. When Gwyn burned himself in the Kiln the Firstborn went back to Anor Londo and left Sunlight Blade on the grave. He probably beat the entire military to do that.
>>335860987
they saved the best for the dlc.
From will make one to squeeze the last yen out of your pocket and souls fans who yearns for an 'actual challenge' will drop their spaghetti at the sight of the dlc pack.
Just like AotA dlc.
>>335862403
>Answers literally none of the questions in the previous games.
>"final" ending has you doing the exact same shit you did in the end of DS1.
It might have been nice if they didn't completely copy DS1's endings. I get that it's a fucking cycle, but that doesn't make it any more satisfying to relight the flame, again, or let the fire die, again.
They put themselves in a huge box when they did the whole cycle bullshit.
>>335862824
Yeah, nah, you're stupid. If you deposited your shit between your "rare" uses of bonfires, the "I love cycling through 200 god damn weapons just so I can find the one I want." wouldn't exist.
You're an idiot.
>>335863108
>answers literally none of the questions in the previous games
Nameless King was the first born.
>>335863108
the dlcs in 2 involved finding a way to break the curse
they should have done something similar with 3
>>335863151
You're missing the point. There's no reason to have weapons and items if you aren't able to equip them when you want. I don't want to put those in the box, because then I can't equip them when I want. I just want to have my favorites be at the top.
Stop defending this bullshit, you know that what I'm suggesting would be a good thing, and what you're saying doesn't fix anything. You're just being hard-headed.
GWYN DIDN'T BANISH HIM YOU FUCKING RETARDS
IT CLEARLY SAYS IN SUNLIGHT BLADE MIRACLE IN DS1 THAT NAMELESS KING LEFT THE MIRACLE ON HIS FATHER'S GRAVE BEFORE HE LEFT
GWYN WAS ALREADY ROASTING BEEF JERKY BEFORE NAMELESS KING EVEN LEFT ANOR LONDO.
>>335863151
>Have to deposit things in the box at every bonfire to keep it clean.
Yeah, nah, fuck that. They already added a sorting feature. They should have just allowed custom sorting. Problem solved.
>>335863431
Calm down senpai
>>335863108
>the worst ending you get for being a moron who does no optional content sucks!
No shit champ
>>335863352
Stop breathing through your mouth and only keep your favorites.
>>335863827
None of the endings were good. The lord of hollows ending doesn't answer anything, or do anything different.
They're all very empty endings, leaving you feeling like you accomplished absolutely nothing.
>>335863431
>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.
>The Nameless King was once a dragon-slaying god of war, before he sacrificed everything to ally himself with the ancient dragons.
>The swordspear is imbued with lightning, of which he was the heir
>The weapon of the God of War, who inherited the sunlight of Lord Gwyn, but had respect only for arms, and nothing else.
>When the eldest son was stripped of his deific status, he left this on his father's coffin, perhaps as a final farewell.
I dunno. Your word against From's word
>>335861192
Why would he do that, other than to just be an asshole? The whole city hated him when he was banished, for siding with the Dragon's, who they were still at war with, and after that everyone forgot who he was, except Gwyndolin. I doubt NK wanted to kill his brother, just for control of a dying city.
>having Anal Rodeo spoiled for you
I'll never forgive those assholes for the three week delay and giving early access to ecelebs who,proceeded to plaster YouTube with their fucking video thumbnails and click bait descriptions
>>335863851
Way to completely ignore every point I made.
>>335864010
He was banished, but not by Gwyn. That's what anon is saying. Gwyn was already clearly dead since Nameless left the miracle on his tomb when he left.
>>335864010
Nothing you posted contradicts me. It's never stated that it was Gwyn who banished him. Sunlight Blade's description clearly says that he left the miracle on Gwyn's grave right after he was stripped of his deity status and banished. So when Gwyn was still around, he was probably on good terms with NK.
>>335863247
that was ornstein you retard
>>335864087
your point is superfluous
>>335864087
Make a valid one and then it can be acknowledged.
>>335860663
I don't think archdragon peak is just some place nameless hid out in for thousands of years. He just showed up to fuck your shit because you rung his bell.
>>335864070
The castle was on the promo art.
>>335864305
I'm not falling for your memes, Vaati.
>>335860987
It's the same universe obviously there's gonna be some overlap.
I personally love the game because it's refined the mechanics from the first and second one. Combat feels to me a lot more fluid than Dark Souls 1.
>>335864389
>>335864380
It is fucking valid you complete dipshits.
>Oh hey, this guy uses a lot of fire damage. Better use that fire protection ring that I never use. Oh wait, I can't, it's in the box.
Having "favorites" be the only items to choose from defeats the whole fucking point of them being favorites.
>Literally being against a custom sorting feature
FOR
WHAT
FUCKING
PURPOSE?
Is it just too fucking user friendly to you? Does it just make too much sense to be able to sort items yourself in a game that throws hundreds of items at you? Explain to me WHY this would be bad? Go ahead.
>>335862038
Except it's much more fair in DS3 and manageable. It wasn't even a hard segment.
>>335864010
Literally says nowhere that Gwyn did it
>>335860987
How stupid can you fucking be to compare Aldrich to Nito when there's literally a Nito ripoff in the same damn game.
>>335863968
Lord of Hollows is the same as the Dark Lord ending but in the Dark Lord ending the hollowing curse ends and the age of man begins, but in the lord of hollows ending the MC artificially causes the curse to keep going by keeping the fire alive within themselves
>>335864770
Whos the nito rip off
>>335864070
Here's an idea. Maybe you should not go on eceleb youtube channels and not read their video descriptions if you don't want that to happen.
>>335864665
If you want an item, keep it, if you don't, get rid of it. Your ring analogy is highly situational, and considering a large majority of rings themselves are highly situational, you could just not clear out the ring tab, considering there aren't that many rings to the point where it would become overwhelming.
You're just bitching about a problem that doesn't exist.
>>335864826
He's saying Wolnir, and is stupid for it. There is no Nito.
>>335863108
>>335864521
There's statues of him all over.
>>335864305
nice meme baby
>>335860663
>one son betrayed you
>the other son is a fag
Gwyn had a hard life.
>>335865130
Well I guess so, dragons must have appreciated him switching sides.
>>335865237
But Gwyn raised Gwyndolin that way on purpose.
>>335865237
>the other son is a fag
That's because he specifically raised him to be so though.
>>335865237
Gwyn literally conditioned Gwyndolin that way.
>>335865092
Don't be dense and deny the obvious connection anon. Wolnir is just Nito with an added gimmick.
>>335865006
Everything is situational you fucking moron. If you use one weapon and one item throughout the whole game, good for you, but some people actually use the items we're given at times when they're useful.
I'm not going to throw everything in the fucking box, because then I would never use it at all. I might as well fucking sell it. I keep them items because I fucking DO use them, just not as much as other items. Items which are my FAVORITE items. Items which I use MOST. They're not the only items I use. They're the ones I use most. I want those items at the top.
How is this so fucking difficult to grasp? I'm really starting to feel like you're purposely not understanding the issue so you don't have to say "You know what, now that I think about it, that wouldn't be a bad thing to have at all".
You're being fucking hard-headed just so you can save face on a fucking anonymous image board.
>>335861669
nigger the question is, what the fuck do you play after dark souls, no good games out there.
everyone that plays shit like meme magic league of dota cancer should just off themselfs
>>335861808
Youmeditateyour way there
>>335865442
How is keeping the items you do use and putting away the items you don't so difficult to grasp?

It's a fucking sequel what were you expecting?
>>335865579
You're so fucking dumb.
I mean. Are you actually being serious? Honestly. Was that a serious question.
Did you REALLY just ignore everything I just said, so you could say the same thing you said in your other post? Really?
I'm going to spell it out really clearly, so hopefully, as stupid as you are, you can understand. I don't keep items I will never use on me. I sell them. Everything I keep on me are things that I might use in a level, but that list of "things I might use" is a long one, and the ones that I use MOST is a short one. I would like to have those items be at the top.
I'm done though. Not carrying on this conversation any longer. You're clearly trolling, because no one on /v/ is legitimately this dumb.
>>335863151
Holy shit Fromdrones get triggered easily.

>>335865297
>>335865332
>>335865338
well he was worshipping the moon like a fag. that's like if your son started sucking cock so you made him wear dresses as punishment.
>>335868360
He wasn't worshiping the moon. He was born with an affinity to it, which to Gwyn meant he was supposed to be a woman.
Why did the Ashen One even kill him?
>NK has been minding hisown business for fucking ever except for that one time Ornstein showed up and got wrecked
>Suddenly you just invade his place on a whim
>Then you kill his ancient wyvern
>Then you ring his bell despite there being several messages explicitly telling you not to
>>335864903
Here's an idea: it's called the fucking YouTube front page and related videos section, where they show you a dozen dark souls 3 videos just becausnyou watched some trailer three months ago
>>335868717
Because he can and he really want that bitching Swordspear. There's no other explanation.
>>335868583
alright so he had an affinity to the moon like a fag
>>335868717
because he's a dirty dragon lover
>>335868360
Man, how retarded are you?
>>335868717
His snakeman buddies, the Ancient Wyvern, and he himself all attack you first.
If I delay going into NG+ can I go later? Or do I only have one chance to do so? I want to go fight Lord of Cinder but, I am not sure if I've any loose ends I've missed.
>>335864690
this just proves hos shit Ds3 is.
Ds2 had 2 archers and it was a lot of working getting through them, here you got like 6 of them and you can just run straight past them without much effort.

>>335869364
I'm just asking casually. You know, like seeing an ugly dude dressing as a fag, you just can't help asking that fag, "are you retarded?" kind of way.
Understand, fag?
>>335865237
Gwyn was a fucking faggot who couldn't handle the fact that one day he wasn't going to be the top dog anymore just like what happened with the dragons.
Gwyn's firstborn was right in betraying his dad and Gwyndolin was the only god worth something in that entire fucked up family.
>>335865332
>>335865297
>>335865338
We have purposely raised him as a girl, as a joke.
>>335868717
Mad from power? Why wouldn't you fuck them up after wrecking everything else, nothing can stop you!
>>335868717
He wasn't your enemy Anon.
He was testing you. That's what the Path of the Dragon is about.
Doubly true if you're a Warrior of Sunlight, then you're his warrior, and he watches over you.
But who was Solaire really?
>>335870813
Some random dude.
>>335870813
rando
or an alternative deity of war that was also stripped of his power
more likely that he's a rando from astora
>>335870813
A knight from Astora of exceptional ability and perseverance who linked the flame.
But most importantly,he was your friend.
>>335868717
really just wanted an interview but he attacked me
>>335870813
Going by his armor description, just an ordinary man with a lot of determination.
>>335871110

So many lore problems would be solved if anyone would just fucking talk to you
>>335871274

Nameless King was a hollow no? His head looked too much like Gwyn's head when he was already hollow.
>>335871438
Oh man
Straight swords are still OP, magic is still fucked, and t poses are everywhere.

>>335868835
Well personally when i go on youtube to find a video i don't read the titles and descriptions of all the ones on the front page, but i guess that's just me.
>>335871624
Yeah, go fucking figure with that.
No precedent for gods hollowing by their own account. I've honestly stopped trying to make sense of it, it doesn't add up.
>>335871790
>No precedent for gods hollowing by their own account
Everyone was a hollow before they found the lordsouls. Including Gwyn and friends. There's no reason a god couldn't go hollow too.
>>335871750
>censor nig
>all knights are censored
>censor a harmless word like rump
censoring is fucking retarded and we should go back to the good old days where you could name your diablo warrior 'nigger rick' and no one would hassle you
>>335871950
The darksign inherently only affects humans, hence the name of the "dark" soul.
Gwyn pulled some magic fire shit, gods aren't supposed to hollow on their own. Gwyndolin and Priscilla didn't, nor did Yorshka.
>>335872085
Yeah, the undead curse and darksign are human-exclusive. But gods were still hollows during the age of fog. When the world is falling apart like that as the flame fades, it's just a likely some gods could start hollowing. Gwyn was hollow when you fought him, and Nameless King is obviously hollow too by his appearance.

Why is it so bad for Firekeepers to have eyes? Wouldn't them seeing the future where everything goes to shit motivate them to not let the flame die?
>>335873591
the eyes you give her are basically usb sticks that play a movie showing what happens when you let darkness, your old pal come through
she begs for the sweet release of death because that's a shit ending and she doesn't want to be a part of it
Does anyone have some decent female faces they'd be willing to share? The sliders are the hardest boss in the game.

Its a shame you don't know how to have fun anymore anon, maybe you should stop playing video games.

How much can you alter your appearance at Rosaria, anyways? Is it just a tiny bit? Or can you redo EVERYTHING?
All of the areas in DS3 aren't literally right next to each other.
If you observe, they're all kind of phased in atop of each other. Most noticeable in Undead Settlement, how everything is just kind of structurely overlapping on itself and kind of just atop one another.
The regions of which the Lords of Cinder all reside converged through space and time so the Ashen One could retrieve them.
There's 3 different Firelinks too.
>Firelink in Untended Graves - the real FIrelink
>Firelink you visit - an illusion
>Firelink in Kiln, probably a result of the illusion fading and real Firelink being converged into the Kiln, along with the rest of the nearby regions crumbling apart in the process
Time and space is utterly fucked in 3 because of everything going on. Even time itself is just sort of shitting the bed.
