What is your favorite piece of Demon Souls or Dark Souls lore?
Lord Gwyn in general.

I believe dark souls is better than demon's souls in almost everything.
>>282717156
and most of it is just autists making shit up
from has said they just put in stuff that seems cool
there's no deep meaning
>>282717694
Technically your post starts above the top line. Virgin.
>>282717694
If you used the word outside, you wouldn't be a virgin too
>>282717891
there is meaning, but it's subjective with some objective things, such as the item descriptions and the environment, you see skeletons burned on bridge, dragon aloft etc... the stories there you just have to piece it together.

>>282717891
Nah, there's actually a fair amount of evidence that links up. You don't have to believe it. Speculation is part of the game. That doesn't mean everything is a jumbled mess simply because of it's ambiguity.
Complaining that the lore is silly is more autistic than the "fan theories" you're citing.
The Maiden in Black is by far my favorite.

Pretty much anyone that hates the lore of the games lies and says "Miyazaki had no idea what he was doing."
I'd love to see how Latria was before the second scourge.
I can imagine this place being anything other than fucked up.
...?
>>282716097
I think for me it is Dark Soul's premise of world logic and history.
In the beginning there was fog, nothing but dragons and beings in the pits of nothing. Then came fire and we all know the rest, aspirations and such.
Cowardly acts and the eating of birds must not be the deeds of a Hero of Storms. If the one being judged displeases the Adjudicator's master, the Golden Crow, the deceased soul will be gnawed upon until nothing but their bones remain.
>>282719358
For Demon's Souls, this. It's just such a nice subtle slap to the face with spine-chilling ramifications once everything clicks in your head.
Dark Souls... I'd say the story of Artorias and his fall from grace/redemption. Favourite character, favourite boss fight, favourite lore.
>>282719358
this and the rivalry between sorcerers and saints
>>282718901
I also played FFX before FF7 that doesn't stop me from liking FF7 a shit ton more, I just don't believe demon's souls has anything over dark souls.
>>282716667
Just boletaria and the country its self interest me like what was it like before all this shit hit the fan.
>>282719716

DeS: As vague as this is, almost anything related to the Old One. It's such an interesting concept, even visually.
DaS: Probably the inner workings of the world. Humanity, souls, the fire, the dark, and how all those and other things connect to each other.
>>282719698
*disparities
>>282720106
There were 12 different kings of BOletaria.
Allant was probably the worst one.
Artorias.
His lore is sad, but his might is something to behold.
>>282720164
I just wish we got some more furtive pygmy lore :(

Finding the talisman of the beast is what all Souls lore should be like. No piece of equipment should leave you with more questions, or at least one piece should give you the truth.
>>282720368
Fuck it.
>>282720230
the furtive pigmy is manus.
he split his soul into pieces and created mankind.
then people did fucked up shit to him and he turned into a monster.
>>282720114
They're basically ring wraiths from Lord of the Rings. Not that I'm complaining.
the old one
>>282720368
Hold my zweihander i'm going in dry
>>282720494
I don't believe manus = furtive, manus is simply an ancient man not THE man, the furtive pygmy was meta as fuck.
Maiden Astrae's lore is pretty cool, so is the story of the entire Tower of Latria.
In Dark Souls I really liked everything surrounding Artorias.
Nito is the first of the undead right? what killed him? what did he look like before he was a big ass skeleton with shit attached to him?
>>282720674
He probably fucked so many women.
>>282719453
There is a musician, I wanna say Lennon, who when asked about the meaning to one of his songs, said something along the lines of "No that's not what it means, but most of my songs really have no meaning. People should derive their own meaning from my songs, that's what music is all about." And I think the same could be said about video games.
>>282720718
No one really knows. In order for him to get a Lord Soul, he must've been somewhat important.
>>282719334
DaS has stuff like this too. Talk to Qeelaag sister's a lot and she'll tell you that she enjoyed the conversation with you.
>>282720929
Yea, that sounds about right. It's just a little bit worse than that when you hear people say that it's all fan made theories. There is much more glue that holds together theories than just wild guesses.
>>282720338
I cosplay the coverboys of the series.
I like Dark Souls but I'm not sure how it got this reputation as 'such deep lore'
I could probably sit down and write you fifty item descriptions of 'here is thing, maybe connection to old thing/person, but lost in time'
I've barely seen anything concrete that wasn't either straight up told to you, or directly contradictory with something else. And the rest is unbelievable conjecture made up by crazy people

>>282721549
Want me to to come up with a ten paragraph hypothesis on the lore significance of 'nah'?
>>282721362
Demon's and Dark souls wasn't like that. It was Dark Souls 2 that started the "everyone forgot" bullshit. At most, Dark Souls had 1-2 items with similarities to "it's ancient and knowledge of it is dwindling" sort of items but they also gave you enough info to figure it out.

>>282721746
You can do whatever you want. Saying that it's conjecture is laughable. There is plenty of good information that links up with enough thought and imagination. Refusing to believe it doesn't make you wrong, it just makes you sound stupid for thinking only "crazy people" are putting a puzzle together.
I find the Painted World pretty interesting. The Firekeepers too. I really want to know more about Lautrec as well.
>>282719789
While I agree DaS is a better overall game (and my personal GOAT) I think Demons had better voice acting, textures and atmosphere.
>>282721560
Saints and Sorcerors have been at odds (including their organizations) for fucking god knows how long. The talisman of beasts (worshipped as a symbol of god for the saints) is actually the Old One.
There is no other god, no benevolent saviour to balance out the Old One. There is just one god and he's always fucking hungry. He eats souls and shit out demons.
>>282719196
it's the land of giants, but the creature on the archstone really looks like a flamelurker.

The problem with Demon's Souls was that some of it's equipment was very clearly total shit and was not made to do any respectable amount of damage.
Aside from that it was pretty cool. Meat cleaver and blue blood are best.

Didn't know about world tendency at the time, saw random new door open. Explored, walked through another door and got chopped to bits by her.
Then she laughed that cute laugh. Also best fucking armor set in the game for a LONG time if you roll a female.
>>282722646
Allant's fault, though it's not specifically stated how or why. My guess is he was a greedy king seeking power, stumbled upon the old one and where it slept and woke it up.
>>282722683
Humanities are fragments of the Dark Soul. Every descendant of the pygmy (in other words, every human) carries humanity.

>>282716097
I really like the Witch of Izalith and her whole fucked up family.
She wanted to recreate the flame that brought about life and meaning, and ended up creating an endless bed of explosive, never ending life that was corrupted in the form of demons.
I love how all of her children ended up fucked up due to her mistakes. I love how Chaos combines both the imagery of lava and churning , scalding fire with the constant wild growth of trees and weeds. I love how the weapons of Demons all look like they were broken off of branches or were carved from wood or just grew on the damn vine that way.
I also love the idea that she tried to recreate the first flame, but instead created a sea of lava, an "imperfect" flame.

>>282723503
No... but Clerics and Saints consider it the likeness of God, the benevolent one that is at odds with the Old One (widely regarded as the Devil of sorts).
The thing is, that likeness IS the Old One, meaning there is no benevolent god and they've been worshipping Santans and drawing their power from him all along.

I don't know about Demon's Souls yet, I'm still trying to beat it. I'm at the Maneaters at the moment, though I've gone through pretty much every area a little bit, finishing a few of them.
It's weird, the two of them definitely seem easy enough for me to beat, but I always end up fucking up at the last minute. It's this FUCKING ASSHOLE PHANTOM on the staircase who always makes me rage and try a different world out. Seriously, fuck him. He's a non magic users worst nighmare.

That pinwheel was just some schmuck who was trying to bring his murdered family back to life by stealing nito's power, dun goofed and fused his wife and son in his own body. Then the player comes along and wrecks his shit while he's trying to figure out how to split them from him (as is demonstrated by his splitting move)
That and his theme has people whispering "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry".
>>282722114
If I remember correctly the painted world was the first level they did / tested on which is probably why it's so well made, I think that at the end of the day they had a level made and just threw that shit in there with vague lore

The only things left in the shrine of storms are skellies which suggests they ate birds and displeased the adjudicator. The other "heroes" must have moved on or died properly, with the exception of the old hero.

Hmm that would explain a lot, not least why its one of the least optimized areas of the game apart from Blighttown. That separate and self enclosed feeling works with the concept of the place though. A pocket dimension held within a painting that holds the things the gods find offensive.

What's the best Artorias weapon? I want to play as him but all his weapons sound pretty shitty
i don't quite understand why Miralda(DeS) calls you a''traitor'' when you fight her in 1-1.Are you supposed to be some kind of former Allant's servant?I don't think so because at the beginning of the game you clearly see yourself arriving in Boletaria,so I always assumed that you're some kind of errand knight-hero wannabe

>Game is called Dark Souls even though you only hear about one
Fun fact, the game was originally under a different title that loosely translated to Dark Ring (the accursed dark sign) but an office member mentioned a butthole and they figured too many people would link the name with anus' so they changed it to Souls to fit it into a series of games.
God created the Old One. However the God the clerics worship is not God, but the Old One. This is revealed by Talisman of Beasts, True Allant's dialogue and retroactively, the intro cutscene. Saying it's the same individual is incorrect, the clerics were merely blindly worshipping the thing that gave them "Miracles."
>>282724937
All of his weapons are god tier for people who level up. I'm level ~400 ish now and the true artorias greatsword has 685 attack power. It's fucking amazing. Cursed one is perfect for new londo ruins and the abyss greatsword has a really fun move set and I think powers up with your humanity?
>>282725128
I'm fighting him now but his sign doesn't show up even though I found him. Got the shield and all. But if he's not going to be much help oh well. Manus is fucking my butt anyway.
>>282724937

>>282724937
You technically need about 20 in Str, Dex, Int and Faith to properly use all of them, but as long as you have the physical requirements you can swing it fine

>>282725331
Sif is useless in that fight. If you've got the skill to beat Manus you can do it without Sif. If not Sif isn't going to help.
>>282725314
I'm pretty sure the lighting zwei has 500 attack power and a chaos large club has near 600 when you have humanity. 685 doesn't seem all that much for being level 400 comparatively.
>>282725613
demon's axe +15, 51 STR, soul level 100, ant that nigger still wrecked my shit.
Kalameet really was a cakewalk with a fast roll, but manus is a bitch.
>>282725532
Well, those are as high quality screenshots you will get from DeS, all it does is expose the lack of AA. Almost all console games have 2xFXAA, nothing great by any means, but it does blur the edges a bit. I'm pretty sure DeS has no AA at all.
it of course looks better in motion, probably sitting back from a tv
>>282725465
Actually fighting them head on two handed and staggering them is one of the best ways of dealing with them.
>>282725686
>685 doesn't seem all that much for being level 400 comparatively.
It's a greatsword, that's amazing attack for a greatsword.
Also greatswords are the best swords.

Player turns up in his office and says "I quit", kills boss, boss says "do you work here?"
>>282724937
Abyss Greatsword if you are 100~ because it actually scales up to 10 Humanity and has a higher damage modifier than it's AR suggests, much like the BKH. The other two are only really "good" with very high stats, but are still fun to use regardless.

Last time I played was when they put DeS on the PS store, it was also free for PS+, I think. It had a lot of activity then, a short revival. Lots of new players, lots of people who only played DaS. They had no clue what the scraping spear was. I'd invade the same people multiple times since DeS didn't have the failure p2p shit das did. They would message me asking how I broke their gear and to leave them alone. All they knew after multiple invasions was to turn their backs and run from me.
So many of them ran right into the exploding carts in stonefang.
>>282726000
Well, a lot of 7th gen games did have some form of AA. Especially those made 2010 and later. 2009 and prior, a lot of games had none.

I was actually right, DeS had no AA at all and DaS had 2xAA

Did a bit of fiddling with the char planner and I suppose you're right. Still seems a little low though.
>>282725907
Correct, once they begging to either do any of their attack animations they have hyper armor. If your first attack doesn't stun, train yourself to roll out of the way.
Usually running up from behind and backstabbing can give a good enough window to finish them off in a combo. Blocking is a death sentence.>>282725937

That one Praise the Sun guy is a total fucking homo
>>282727093
yeah, she can catch you off guard, considering you can't roll in the swamp.
>>282727124
I remember running into one and having no clue what it was. I approached it with shield up and it didn't do shit. If you stand in front of it, it will stick it's spear tongue through you
>>282726713
Even though it's split damage, it's high enough that it's well worth using. It's on a different level from a mere Chaos+5 weapon. I've pvp'd with Arty swords on max SL and that range combined with the sheer damage is fantastic.
>>282727002
I think I'm just overestimating the scaling and expecting more. I've never taken a char that high myself before, usually want to go experiment with a new build after the first NG+. I'm pretty sure in Demons the stat scaling never tailed off that much.
>>282727281
I did
I was shitting my pants so hard that I didn't even notice the stairs to the archers. I killed that motherfucker with the archers shootin me
>>282719358
Yeah, came here to say this.
Big spoiler though.
>>282727124
Seriously? Primevals are your main source of Colorless Souls each playthrough. Way more important than just shifting WT.
>>282727281
I did. Never got past the Flamelurker till after I completed Dark though, had no idea wtf I was doing and didn't understand the weapon stat screen.

HA HA-HA-HAHA
These games had lore? Felt like a bunch of random fantasy shit. Didn't really give a shit, loved the fuck out of the atmosphere.
>>282727727
Most boss weapons that are upgraded with colourless souls are pretty useless in my experience. It didn't even increase the weapon attacks power. I don't think I upgraded very much.
>>282716373
Lord General Gwyn is the best Warhammer 40 King.
best looking armor set in the franchise coming through
>>282727842
I fucking loved the Bramd but only the poison resist went up when you upgraded. It was bullshit

That's not ornstein's
The moment I realized the titular Dark Souls actually referred to Humanity. Or maybe that was really obvious from the start? I don't quite remember what item description I read that made it clear to me.
I tried playing Demon's Souls but playing a souls game on anything but mouse and keyboard with dsmfix feels like shit.
Flame Keeper Anastacia of Astora being a mute because her tongue was ripped out.Then consuming her soul to upgrade estus flasks
>>282727727
>not just using dupe glitch for colorless souls and stones
I got the platinum so you niggas can't get mad at me
A very large amount, if not the majority of people on /v/ at this point who play(ed) DaS/DaS II have never played DeS.

I think it's just one of Ornstein's knights.

Huh, the only related thing I can remember along those lines is an interview with Dick Valentine from Electric Six who said they had meanings for their songs at their conception but they forgot along the way.
>>282728443

>souls with a controller. They should have just hired the dsmfix guy to implement proper m+kb controls to every game they make. So much better than being forced to use a controller.
>>282728216
That's too bad for you then
Everything about Vinheim and magic makes my dick hard.
Logan's quest, why was he banned from Vinheim, is Griggs a spy, spying for what, what is everyone up to ?
And also the general story of magic in DaS' wolrd with Seath linking crystal to the souls and stuff is really great and could be expanded in so many ways
>>282728682
I still remember my first time against Tower Knight good times Demons souls will always be my favorite
>>282728682
The tower night shield was the shit, nothing like Havel's stuff.
>>282724215
I was a STRONK heavy weapon user and I could still sneak up on him for the backstab, you just cannot run or else your armor will clink and get his attention. Stay far enough away that you can just barely see him, then wait for him to turn around.The area after the Maneaters has two BP Mind Flayers that cannot be avoided and cannot be backstabbed since you face them in an extremely narrow hallway.

>fighting giants in swamp with tower shield
>panicking because fuck giants
>tower shield eats the fucking attack and leaves me with no stamina but zero damage
THE BEST SHIELD IN ANY GAME
----------------
>>282727920
virgin spotted but not only that you're a fucking nerd too
----------------
>>282728918
you mean this shield? I think you get this set after killing the executioner bitch in 1-1 with PBWT. You have to drop down all those rafters and if you slip, you're ded. Also, you better have that inventory load item.

Sure thing grandpa, drink your 970 and go to bed already

>>282724564
The japs just over-explain the joke in their comics, there's no point in reading them.
>>282729258
Don't even get me started on Pure black tendency, or getting the sword "Blind" from the swamp
>>282724987
Isn't it because you start becoming something of a demon yourself after collecting demon souls? I could have sworn an NPC mentions something about you being different after you acquire a number of demon souls.
maybe she sees you as a person slaying demons just to gain their power, becoming a demon yourself.
>>282729197
No, the legit Tower Shield that drops off the BP in 1-4 or under the bridge in 1-2. Has the highest stability of all shields and good resists, but the only thing heavier is Bramdt.
man this is making me want to play DeS again.
Blighttown or Gwyn and his children.
>>282724757
Yea it works but really there is little lore about ariamis and pricilla, though it makes sense velka's shit is there seeing as how she was basically che guevera of lordran
>>282729197
That's Biorr shield, the tower shiled is under that bridge in the screenshot, from where Biorr is found prisoner all the way back in the dungeon until you find it on the ground, iirc.
>>282728327
It's actually better.
>>282727281
I did. Pre-ordered that shit so fast because of some dude who used to make threads of his asian version playthrough.
>>282729390
that's true.
>>282729518
>>282729660
I remember now.
>>282729527
Latria 2 gives me the fucking creeps and Valley of Defilement is still a nightmare
>>282729492
Or it could be because she's BATSHIT INSANE.
I did like that little move they did by putting her Black Phantom on the other side of the door. First time I went in in pure black I raced around, swinging, but saw nothing. Then she oneshot me and that's how I found out NPCs could do back stabs too.
>>282729527
I left my computer at home, brought my PS3 to college.
Replaying with heavy faith build. It feels so dated and ugly. Especially after 60 fps DaS2 with mods.
>>282716097
Darkwraiths and Forest Hunters. Tying invasions to covenants with clear goals that fit into the setting in distinct ways was really cool. I'd say Darkmoons and Gravelords too except they never worked.
>>282729197
Also I beat the centipede nigger with havel's set. That was bretty gud, bitch couldn't slam me to the ground.
>>282716097
I don't know if it's real or not but supposedly in DeS all of the characters you meet are actually dead. They do not really understand that they are. You can find most of their corpses through out the worlds. Even Mephistopheles in 3-2.
Again I don't know if it's for sure or if it was just a fan theory I may have read.
>>282729648
There's that creepy crow that watches you every time you are in Firelink.
