Can't wait for him to change this mind again and go back to DeS just like he did with DS2
>>337926818
>go back to DeS
I hope so, dude still owes us a complete playthrough.
And it is his favorite Souls Games (not counting DaS III yet), even his 2nd favorite game over all.
>>337926818
Dude why you love him and hate him so much?
You are thinking about him way too much time, that can't be healthy.
>>337926989
I'm starting to think he can't even beat Demon's Souls
I mean how many times has he given up on a DeS playthrough so far?
How the fuck is Untended Graves the best area in the series? It's pretty cool to see an alternate version of Firelink, but that's literally the only interesting thing about the place.
Im watching Patrick KlepeK run, he is better.
Eceleb cancer
>>337928512
But it's so deep like miyazaki-san intended
The titanite shard in the regular firelink MUST have hinted towards the untended graves being the real firelink shrine
I mean we saw demons made of titanite, therefore titanite is an evil material. But Firelink shrine is a safe haven, a peaceful place. So how could there be a piece of a demon and how could Gundyr be corrupted?
That's simple, it's because it's not the real firelink shrine and the untended graves is the real one.
I mean really, in Untended Graves you can find an un-corrupted Gundyr and black knights: the servants of Gwyn. A LITERAL god.
And all that could be guessed from that simple titanite shard.
Miyazaki-san is a genius.
>>337928512
Because wow so deep lore
It's just the same shit as DS2 that he shilled all day back then

woah . . .
Seriously though, i Miyazakis name wasn't in the credits everyone would shit on the fanservice and most of the the game
>>337926989
>I hope so, dude still owes us a complete playthrough.
What the fuck are you talking about? He did a basically 100% playthrough before Dark Souls 3 came out.
>>337926818
>best area
I mean the implications of an abyss/dark world are cool but eh... Area literally had the lighting turned off. No new geography.
Plus it's just the workshop trick again.
CHAMP still a cool boss though.
>>337929580
Not DeS
We have never seen him complete the game
>>337929580
What the fuck are YOU talking about?
He started like two playthroughs, and never did he finish them. He always comes close, but somewhat about False King makes him never tackle him.
>>337929701
>>337929741
Oh yeah, you said DeS, sorry.
>>337928985
ENB would think like that
>>337929536
That goes without saying. Soulsborne fans hate change and only like references or flawed mechanics if miyazaki is credited as the director
Miyazaki's quote on the undead dragon is the single most bullshit thing I've ever read
>>337929741
I think he can't beat him
Or he gets ptsd from the de-leveling and gets too scared to do it
I wonder how many hours of failed attempts at King Allant he has recorded
>The greatest area
If there was some lore explaining what the fuck it even is I would be glad. But nope, we only have the generic "time is convoluted" shit.
Seriously, there isn't a single piece of lore explaining why there is a door near Oceiros that takes you through time in the past (because it is the past, as confirmed by the secret handmaiden dialogue).
>>337930070
Shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up

>>337930070
Especially he ENbs case. He loves some areas in DeS more than anything else, but suddenly he just loves a dark firelink shrine more than anything? He probably missed the hidden items too
>>337930070
>there is a door near Oceiros that takes you through time in the past
The entire fucking world is in the past, not just dark firelink, you moron.

What's with this piggy picture?
Is it another meme you're forcing /?
>>337930506
Fuck off. The untended graves are clearly experiencing an age of Dark but the rest of the world isn't? Are you fucking kidding me? Is "the age of dark" limited and well circumscripted around the Untended Graves?
At least you could've been snarky and said something like "Uhm... they are in the abyss, yeah!" but no no.
>>337930070
OK that is the past? Not a possible reality?
So the flame dies in one point? How is the player trying to stop that event if it already happened?
>>337930546
look ma', I posted it again!
>>337930721
No, it's the past. If you for some retarded reason go to the intended graves without ever talking to the Handmaiden in normal Firelink and talk to the one there, the "standard" one will lately recognize you. So yes, Untended Graves is 100% the past. "Where" in the past is probably during Ludleth's age.
There are tons of theories and not a single piece of lore confirming them so there you have it. For some people, Ludleth (a guy that burns to death immediatly after you get all the cinders) is some evil mastermind.
>>337930718
>The untended graves are clearly experiencing an age of Dark but the rest of the world isn't?
If you haven't noticed, the sun in the sky isn't the actual sun.
>>337930898
Well golly gee that just explains everything then
>>337930898
>The sun isn't the sun
Show me proof that the sun is fake. It's a different time of the story in different locations, genius.
>Normal day at the beginning
>Night arrives when in Irythill
>When you are back for Lothric, we are near the end and the sun begins bleeding as some sign that the end is there.
I know theorycrafting in this community has always been on the retarded side but I am fed up with this after five years. If there's a piece of cloth with some lore about the sun dying out then I'm fine with it, otherwise that dark sign in the sky is just some methaphor for the END.
>>337930971
It explains a lot more than thinking a hallway takes you to the past with no indication for some retarded reason.
>>337930391
Has he even gotten to the the dark firelink yet?
>>337931159
So you are telling me that "for some reason" the sun is "fake" everywhere... besides the untended graves. Which are just right next to the high wall.
Well jee, what an inconvenient magic. By the way, could you explain to me why the "fake sun magic" isn't working only in the graves? It sure looks like the sun to me in the Undead Settlement.
>>337931198
According to his twitter yes
>>337931142
The Profane Flame pyromancy and a bunch of otehr Profane Flame related items basically say the sun fell from the the sky during Yhorm's rule.
>>337931410
"The Profaned Capital was consumed by fire after Yhorm the Giant became a Lord of Cinder. The fire, born of the sky, is said to have incinerated naught but human flesh."
Bit of a stretch to say it's the sun innit? Could be a meteor or some sort of magic
>>337931410
Which just means that back during Yhorm's age we arrived at the age of dark. And when the age of dark comes, the sun falls from the sky.
>JEE, I wonder why at the end of the game, in Lothric castle, the sun is bleeding from the sky!
After you link the flame the sun stops bleeding. Occam's razor, please.
He hasn't even uploaded today's video.
>>337930506
No. Just untended graves.
That's why the firekeeper freaks out because she gets the eyes and sees what was about to happen with all the darkness around and then asks if you want the same to happen again.
It was probably another time when the world was close to being fucked up until someone linked the flame.

Untended graves is connected to everything else and there is no indication what so ever that time travel is when you walk through the cave leading to it, for one.
>>337931835
Not really to be honest, but now I want a Dark Souls game set in a world devoured by Angra Mainyu.

>>337932112
>and there is no indication what so ever that time travel is when you walk through the cave leading to it, for one.
"Magic".
I understand your point, but I just can't accept that the sun decided to go out only there and not everywhere else. Can you see Firelink from the Undead Settlement? By that logic, the Firelink one should see from there is the one in the Untended, right? Is it illuminated by light?

Lol at das3 having enemies made entirely of maggots. And like 25% of blood borne
I guess he drew the line at ocelotte though
>>337932306
>Can you see Firelink from the Undead Settlement?
It's on the opposite side, so no.
So what is actually the best area in a Souls game?
>>337931738
>Can't you instead try to convey the deep sorrow of a maginificent beast doomed to a slow and possibly endless descent into ruin
Well judging from the final design, no they couldn't.
>two separate instances where you can literally see a bonfire from a bonfire
Why?
>>337932306
>I just can't accept that the sun decided to go out only there and not everywhere else.
Time of day and weather are different in every location, why would you expect Untended Graves to be any different?
>Can you see Firelink from the Undead Settlement? By that logic, the Firelink one should see from there is the one in the Untended, right? Is it illuminated by light?
You can see Irithyll from Lothric High Wall during the day. When you move there, it's suddenly night. When you move past pontiff, it's suddenly day again.
>>337932447
From what I understand of the quote, it's mostly about it being a dragon than it being gross or whatever
>>337932501
Opinions differ, but mine is Latria or the Nexus
>>337931872
You can't leave because there's no other way except to climb the cliff which leads to the Ocerius chamber.
Why would you be placing Lords in the future version of firelink to save the world in the past if it was already fucked?
>>337932501
I like Sen's Fortress the most.
I also really liked Lothric Castle and the Grand Archives.
>>337932501
Boletaria Palace
>>337932501
Shrine of Amana
>>337932589
Every boss kill gets a bonfire, every new area gets a bonfire, sometimes one immediately follows the other.
It gets redundant in a few places, but it was that or break consistency.
>>337932447
YOU WERE BORN A CHILD OF DRAGONS
>>337932501
From a gameplay point of view? Probably Sen's, No man's Warf (scholar version with the new shortcut is better), High Wall. Also, the Catacombs in DaS1 because form a purely level design standpoint it's an incredible dungeon full of shortcuts and I love that shit.
From an artistic one though? Amana, Anor Londo, Dragon Aerie, That see of Brume Tower you get when starting DLC 2 in dark souls 2.
>>337932501
Duke's Archives
>>337932501
IMO Brume Tower
Atmosphere plays a lot into what each person's favorite is so it will differ person to person. There's no right answer.
>>337932501
Nexus for me
>>337932821
I never played any Dark Souls DLC, what is the new Wharf shortcut? is it where all that debris is on the wooden platform?

There was a bridge you could kick down from the second half to the first.
>>337928340
Demon's Souls should be pretty easy for a Souls veteran, even if DeS wasn't their first game.
>>337932501
For me is:
Latria in Des
Catacombs in DaS
Sanctum City in DaS2
Grand Archives in DaS3
Never played BB.
Considering all the games I'd say Catacombs is my favorite.
>>337932867

If only Iron King wasn't full of enemies hidden everywhere in the ash and rooms full of enemies you have to jump into without really being able to escape.
>>337932934
Yeah, it's there. There are no more debries now, only a bridge you can kick. It's a really nice shortcut because now it's actually possible to reach the boss without wasting a repair powder, which is still really scarce in that point of the game.
Are these threads absolutely necessary every single fucking day?

Yes

>fake boss that takes away all your souls and humanity
You know you can go back and get your bloodstain, right? Or just use a ring of sacrifice.
>>337933139
YES
They're better than most souls threads anyway
>>337933110
Its certainly starting to be that way. The amount of redpilling he's done to himself to consider DS3 an amazing game is silly. The blind-reaching for lore, the over-looking of how bland 70% of the areas are, the blind-eye to all these gimmick bosses. The retreads going from criticism to acceptance because lol-anor-londo-lol.
Its just stupid at this point and I seriously hope that he wises the fuck up to how half-assed DS3 is.
>>337933139
You can.
You know.Stop entering them
Have a complementary anime picture, I know /v/ denizens are triggered by them.
>>337933232
Besides a couple people, it's what keeps happening yeah
>>337932334
It's almost like they're two different series with entirely different motifs and art direction. Dark Souls' setting is all about the world burning out and falling into decay, with once-noble champions and powerful beings going mad and losing their power. Bloodborne is all about blood and disease and people gouging out their own eyes to see the terrors beyond. It makes sense to me, anyway.
>>337930070
>Seriously, there isn't a single piece of lore explaining why there is a door near Oceiros
I'd just like to point out Lothric sits atop of Cemetery of Ash/Untended Graves. It at least makes sense geographically. If the Ashen Estus Ring is anything to go by, that pathway existed as an easy way for the Queen to visit the graves.
>>337930869
By this logic the standard handmaid should die when you kill the one at graves but this isn't the case.
>>337933097
>>retarded sequence where you warp to a new bonfire when dying instead of the last and attack through a wall to kill a snake with 1 HP
better than yahargul where they just leave the cell unlocked honestly
>>337933328
Oh shit
That artist has some nice art actually
>>337926818
Oh it's this SHIT thread again
Also, Untended Graves is one of the most boring areas in the game, it's literally one square meters big
>>337933097
Git gud lol
>>337933381
I thought it was impossible to kill her anyway? Whenever I tried to murder her she respawned after resting and said something like "Sorry, but I cannot die."
>>337933328
Man I love that artist.
>>337933381
The Handmaid is undead. If you kill her she respawns.
>New episode is not out yet

Dark Souls 2 is clearly the better game, gotta wait until the DLC for Ds3 is out to make the final verdict though
>>337933232
Ciaran is cute. CUTE.
So does he have a meltdown when he hears the baby crying in the Oceiros fight?
It's annoying to me how he calls the deserter at Firelink "crestfallen"
>>337933943
It's not news that his opinions are shit
What surprised me the most was how awful he is at the game
This guy wrote a guide for DS2 and BB and yet he plays like it's his first souls-game, dies to stupid shit, refuses to lock-on, he's slow as fuck, blind to obvious things while stopping to watch pointless details,etc
He lost all credibility to me
>>337933943
>muh "with us or against us" mentality!
Bloodborne fans are the fucking worst. Accept that peope have other opinions, cancer.
Wait, did he ever go back to that Oceiros boss to get to Untended Graves? Last video I checked he seemed to have completely forgot about the whole zone.
>>337934173
Fuck off PCuck
I thought the Untended Graves was a really neat area, particularly because I didn't find it on my first playthrough and it completely changed a lot of what I thought I knew about the setting. DA CHAMP is one of the most fun bosses in the game, and the atmosphere is just fantastic.
But I still wouldn't rank it that highly as an area in its own right, since it's a pretty easy trick, and they already did the same thing in Bloodborne (though it is admittedly done better here).
>>337934098
the only thing DS3 is better at is pure gameplay, which is the thing fucking me over, I got killed by Pursuer because I'm not used to the wonky rolls and ADP based dodge of 2 anymore
>>337934098
Considering how many patches DS2 got and + all the DLC I'm willing to wait to give Dark Souls 3 a chance
But I doubt they'll change the flawed mechanics. Hopefully they won't pull another "definite edition" that you have to pay for
>>337934140
Well he's basically the same fromsoft stock character.
>>337934174
He also just walked away from Demon Ruins and in the process killed Anri
He probably does all the optional areas after souls of cinder, for wahtever reason.
I don't get why he wouldn't go thorugh the optional areas right away
>>337934356
Because he'll get rekt.
No way in a 10000 years he will kill the Nameless King solo.
>>337934140
Come on. You don't even remember Hawkwood's name. Just because he has a little bit more to his questline than in previous games doesn't change that he's still the same old Crestfallen Warrior that's been in every Souls game to date.
>>337934258
I'd argue its done better in BB because it was the first instance of them playing with our perception of something known within the game. DS3's graves just comes off as a cheap reminder of the hunters workshop. I fucking love the Champ though, I wasn't nearly as impressed with DS3's attempt at subverting the player as I was with BB. Especially when you can get to the workshop early on in BB so at that point you have no clue whats going on and the context you get later makes the reveal even more crazy. DS3's feels like a retread in every way.
>>337934413

Do you even know what the buzzwords mean that you throw around?
>>337934663
Its a thread about the dumb shit he said on twitter so people are posting about it now. He basically admitted full on that he's an idiot this time.
>>337934356
Leaving Demon Ruins doesn't kill her, not killing the Chameleon'd guy in the Church of Yorshka does.
She just doesn't know what happens to her buddy if you leave Demon Ruins but that can happen if you kill Wolnir before going there to.
Did he actually write Untended Graves wrong or is it some epic meme?
>>337934737
The difficulty of souls game is a meme at this point
If he is doing fine in the game so far there's no reason he would get "rekt" in any of the optional areas (none of which are even that hard)
>>337934756
Yes, I don't understand why people blame him for not "getting Anri's quest right". Do people even realize how insane are the questline triggers this time?
>>337934749
Admitting to being retarded after almost 40 videos of him being retarded isn't exactly something to be proud about
>>337934832
Epic meme
>>337934832
he's trying to avoid spoilers i think
>>337934832
He probably doesn't want to spoil shit
>>337934756
I don't know if it is possible to save her if you don't do the Yoel/Yuria questline. I did the same thing he did and let Yoel die and never met Yuria and there was no hidden chameleon guy in the room with Anri. In another playthrough I did the quest and Yuria says someone is watching Anri and I was able to find the pilgrim.
>>337934897
IMO it seems like you are supposed to fuck it up first time because you need to put the pieces together that the dead guy has Chameleon and the statue in the corner isn't there anymore.
Or they expect you to find the dark ending and talk to the guy with Chameleon and then figure it out.
Either way I think they wanted you to get feels the first time through as she is obviously a character you are supposed to like.
>>337926818
>Complains about the games usually being too dark
>praises the darkest area in the series for being the best
Cant make this shit up.
>>337935069
Perhaps if Yoel dies before you get there the Chameleon guy isn't there?
My last playthrough I never spoke to Yoel but he was alive and the Chameleon guy was there.
>>337926818
>literally hunter's dream 2.0
>hating on bloodborne just because of his two dead fetuses
glass him
>>337934897
Yeah, the NPC quests are one area that people really need to give blind players some slack for, since they're really convoluted this time around. Hell, my first playthrough went like this:
>Ran right past Anri in the Catacombs without seeing her, so she never showed up in my game again
>Greirat died in a sewer
>Siegward's still in that well since I never went back there
>Patches just showed up in Firelink and apologized profusely despite never having met me before
>Yoel died, and Yuria never showed up, because I thought I was being smart by not accepting the suspicious free levels
>Bought Deep Protection from Irina, making her disappear never to be seen again
>Sirris goes aggro on me for reasons I don't understand and I kill her
>Murdered Leonhardt because I wanted his hat
>>337935463
Weird, Anri was in the church and I could not for the life of me find the pilgrim after striking all the statues multiple times. It wasn't until I did lord of hollows on another playthrough quest he was there.
Maybe my game was just bugged or something.
>>337935463
>Perhaps if Yoel dies before you get there the Chameleon guy isn't there?
Nope, the guy is still there.

If the whole game had an abyss variant where the sky is pitch black and you fight unspeakable horrors and to go there you would have to traverse the dark sign in the sky by jumping in the reflection of it in the surface of the big sea below Lothric it would've been the coolest thing, too bad fromsoft hates cool things and made a shoddy short "gratest hits" fan panda ring game.
>>337935641
I think they've added him in a patch.
I haven't seen him on my first playthrough and there were no messages at all around the statue.
Did another playthrough last weekend, 3 weeks later and this time the area had messages
>>337934140
What's annoying to me is how he didn't know Hawkwood's name for the entire game and then he found Hawkwood's shield and thought he was some new character and then found the summon with his name and figured that he had put two and two together or some shit instead of realizing he's a dumbass who missed Hawkwood's name the first time.

Oh shit I thought OP was joking.
maybe from a LORE and 2deep4u philosophical shit perspective, but visually it's boring like someone forgot to put a skybox in there.will he miss the eyes?

He tends to hit the walls that are actually not illusions, so there's a chance

>next level and far beyond
What a load of horse-shit. Its the exact same in every connotation. You encounter a location that you are familer with out in the world and its context sheds light on how dreams work and how Gehrman is involved in the entire mess.
Nothing but Hyperbole from him at this point.

There's no way...right?
I can't fucking believe he read the Sorcerer Robes and thought it was the Scholar Robes.
Is he playing on a fucking potato?

That part caused my autism to go off the charts.
>>337936905
>Youtube comments are closed to avoid spoilers
Yet his twitter is still active, do you really think it's about spoilers and not about his fragile ego?
>>337937019
His twitter is being screened by a friend.
>>337937019
Direct tweets to him are also closed, so yes
He also loves discussion on his vids
>>337936935
Who gives a fuck? Honestly. There's nothing interesting on it.
>>337936935
They are very similar both in name and appearance.
>>337936935
>Venheim, eh?
>>337936905
Nah, he doesn't even read the comments to begin with and still reads tiwtter.
He just can't handle the criticism
>>337937182
He reads / read comments.
Even used some screens of the comments in one of his most recent Dark Souls / Demon Souls LPs at the beginning episode.
>>337937108
And he knows that ?
>>337926818
I almost wish, ALMOST wish that some asshole like that cunt Mattosis would come around and rip DS3 a new one so I can get rid of this blanket praise DS3 gets for some stupid reason. Its a bad souls game. No fucking clue why people are letting it slide when DS2 was ripped apart.
>>337936797
Well he's on 38 already.
39 is Lothric and fucking around firelink
40 is him "learning" Souls of Cinder by dying on purpose or maybe Demon Ruins finally
41 is struggling through Consumed garden
42 is Beating Ocerius and getting to the graves
I think he actually beat the game before doing the side areas seeing how he only posted about it now.
>>337937340
Yeah because he knows that game. But who forces him to read the YT comments?
He replies to twitter comments to that might as well be spoilers if he accidentaly read them
>>337937386
You sound like one of the people speculating what the episode scheme Jojo's will have this season.
>>337937182
Look, you can believe your opinion all that you want, but it doesn't make you right
>>337937379
people don't like to admit things
>>337937379
Why do you think it is a bad souls game?
Curious.
>>337934897
On my first playthrough I saw the pilgrim with chameleon where Anri died and assumed that there was a hidden guy at the bonfire.
>>337937386
maybe he'll miss it and he thinks its one of the coolest areas in the series because it's so lore heavy and well hidden
>>337937451
>He replies to twitter comments to that might as well be spoilers if he accidentaly read them
Like I said anon, he has someone screening his tweets.
He's not looking at them directly.
>>337937386
I think the same, the fact that we haven't gotten a tweet about Nameless is very telling. I doubt he's fought SoC either though to be honest, I imagine there will be an episode or so where he just flys around all the old areas again looking for shit.
Ah... the profaned capital of Vinheim Dragon School
>>337937576
He literally replies to people in less than a minute sometimes
Why does it take him so long to upload... FUCK!
>>337937674
Cell phones or skype anon.
People are in contact all kinds of ways and can do so in seconds.
Did he even give a shit about the hunters workshop?
>>337937697
chill out anon jeeze
>>337937564
Exactly, you at least need a second playthrough to understand the quest.
Although, ENB didn't seem to make that connection but in fairness the easiest way to understand is if you do the dark quest line.
>>337937576
>he has someone screening his tweets.
Why are Souls fags so autistic when it comes to spoilers?
>>337937871
Because some people enjoy experiencing the story in the game rather than hearing about it on the internet.
A concept I realize is far beyond your understanding.
>>337937379
With Dark Souls 2 people were starting to realise there were massive problems with it before the mathewmatosis video and the video was the tipping point.
I'm not sure what's happened to the souls community since then but almost no one except a few people on here and a few streamers seem to be criticising dark souls 3, even though it's arguably worse than Dark Souls 2 and at the very least has a lot of the same problems people slated DaS2 and even DaS for.
>>337938000
Couldn't he just play through the game and ignore his twitter?
He also replies to some people in less than like 10 seconds. I doubt those are screened too
>>337937663
Could that be where he'll find Crestfallen?
Guys guys guys guys guys
Just 8 more minutes
>>337938000
Checked
>>337938183
>few streamers seem to be criticising dark souls 3
Because Miyazaki
>>337938183
miyazaki can do no wrong
If Miyazaki wouldn't be in the credits everyone would shit on the fanservice and gameplay and rehashs
>>337938243
GET HYPE
So does anyone know if Echoes Night is any good?
>>337937561
Granted I'll throw opinions out here and if you don't agree thats fine, but here goes.
Over-reliance on previous games: 80% of the gear is from previous games in the series so the game itself lacks a real idenitity when it comes to armor/weapons/spells.
Too much pandering: Entire areas(anal rodeo), and concepts are reused to an extreme degree. Everything in DS3 has an analog to something from a previous game. Seigward, patches(I mean sure), Abysswatchers(artorias/sif), Aldrich is a pander-boss instead of a cool goop man.
Bosses are 80% gimmicks and the other 20% are great. Only real stand-outs are Sully, Nameless(kind of), Lothric bros, SoC and Dragonslayer armor. Rest rely on one gimmick too hard to be considered interesting.
Weapon balance is the worst its ever been, Straightsword class weapons are fucking disgustingly powerful and they somewhat negate other classes. You can certainly use other classes but you are just asking for a harder time.
Minimal viability of playstyles, Magic is fucking garbage until 60int plus 4 ring , an offhand and a crown. Pyro is usable but only one spell is good, faith is a fucking joke. Its physical or the highway.
Upgrade material woes, so you will have trouble trying out multiple weapons until breakpoints in the game, boss weapons are particullary egregious in this matter, where its impossible to upgrade a boss weapon fully until the end game.
Lore-wise its just mediocre, it has some cool twists here and there and a few cool NPC's but most of them are just boring. Sully, Aldrich and Yhorm are cool, rest are boring.
PvP is a complete mess this time around, mostly due to weapon balance.
I await dlc for a final look, but I have to say this is the first souls game ever that I've done only 2 playthroughs and felt bored.
No area or Boss made me go WOOOOOOOW in Das3.
the whole thing was just meh
>>337938334
>>337938280
Its really fucking sad that this is all it takes these days. DS3 is clearly B-team round two. And hell they've even admitted that Miyazaki didn't show up to DS3 til it was over half-way done, yet here we are. With people sucking up to a game that is worse than the rest.
>>337938183
Most streamers nowadays act the same like western politicians, always wanting to be political correct, even in fucking videogames.
No way they would sham Miyazaki for releasing this, they're scared of rabid DS fans.
Not to say the game is bad, far from it. It just feels like it got ripped apart at the end, probably just to sell them as DLC later this year.
>>337928340
>beats Flamelurker with a shield
>can't beat game
Would be fucking hilarious if that was the case.
>>337938590
Because it played it way too safe, tried no new things, not even a pvp boss like mirror knight or old monk. Every area is just let's try to make this one from DeS or DS1 again!
>>337938458
>Too much pandering: Entire areas(anal rodeo), and concepts are reused to an extreme degree. Everything in DS3 has an analog to something from a previous game. Seigward, patches(I mean sure), Abysswatchers(artorias/sif), Aldrich is a pander-boss instead of a cool goop man.
3 characters and 2 areas aren´t the entire game.
>Bosses are 80% gimmicks and the other 20% are great. Only real stand-outs are Sully, Nameless(kind of), Lothric bros, SoC and Dragonslayer armor. Rest rely on one gimmick too hard to be considered interesting.
Name 3 bosses that rely on gimmicks
>>337938000
If he cared that much maybe he could have beaten it in the first week like everyone else instead of dragging it out for two fucking months to make money off of it.
>>337938763
This is the first souls game that made me think it was a cash-grab rehash.
>>337938810
Wolnir, Yhorm, shitty plunge dragon
>>337938183
Except I disagree
I hated Dark Souls 2 when I started it because of adaptability and enemy everything.
No problems with Dark Souls 3 other than it feels a bit short and the horrible weapon balancing, but patches will fix that eventually.
>>337938813
He's busy having a wife, child and developing a video game on his own.
>>337938813
If he had wanted to make money, he would have played it before the release (Like what he did with BB and DaS2)
>>337938876
curse rotted greatwood and deacons also
>>337938813
He's married and has a child dumbass, not everyone has the time to play videogames all day.
Man what is with you autists?
>>337938876
I wouldn´t call wolnir a gimmick boss, but ok.
>>337938810
Yhorm, Ancient Wyvern, Wolnir
Arguably deacons
>>337929294
It's bullshit, not even remotely canon.
The normal Firelink Shrine we hang out at is the present. Untended Graves is one from an alternate future, and the one at the end of the game is from the real future.
>>337939065
Really, you don't think an attack the weakspot boss is a gimmick?
>>337938940
>>337939039
>a single video game that isn't even particularly long takes months to beat if you're married and have a kid
Keep being delusional ENB dickriders.
>>337939065
Would you call Bed of Chaos a gimmick boss?
>>337939136
Untended graves is the past you dumb cunt
>>337938810
I was giving examples.
Farron keep being blighttown/defilement, Catacombs being a rehash of chalice dungeons from BB, same with demon ruins. Every NPC has a direct analog to a previous one. Corwyx being like Laurentis of the great swamp, Karla literally being Yuria from DeS. Firekeeper is MiB lame edition. Andre of a fucking stora being literal andre.
As for bosses?
Yhorm, Crystal sage, Wolnir, Ancient dragon, Deacons, Curse rotted greatwood, Aldrich to a degree. So basically a ton of them.
>>337939136
They're neither anon.
You can put a message in either one and it will show up in the other meaning they are not different points in time.
>>337939178
And are developing a video game on your own.
>>337938763
>>337938846
Maybe we'll see some crazy shit in the DLC.
>>337939238
>Corwyx being like Laurentis of the great swamp
Of all the examples you could have picked, you went for the one that makes no sense
>>337939229
Then why is Andre and other characters dead?
Oh wait fuck me, there's no corpses are there. You're just looting free-floating items, aren't you.
>>337939229
Well yeah but wolnir puts up a fight, while the bed of chaos just feels like a puzzle
>hasn't even uploaded a video yet
>thread has 258 replies
our fucking guy
>>337939148
No, it´s just a regular boss that takes big chunks of damage when you break his shit.
>>337939187
That on the other hand...
>>337938940
>>337939039
I've been married for 6 years and have a son and still visit my parents often and i have more than enough time for videogames and i have a fucking job too.
It's not like me and my wife go on an adventure everyday and my wife takes care of our son too.
And he sleeps a few hours every day which is more than enough time to just sit down and play the games
>>337939285
>You can put a message in either one and it will show up in the other
Dude what? That's just a funky quirk of the game, and actually proves that they are the exact same place according to in-game logic. Only reasonable assumption is that they're the same place, different time.
>>337939442
Are you also developing a video game on your own anon?
I doubt it.
>>337939354
Pyromancer who gives you a flame who goes on and on about how the flame is dangerous? Nothing new or engaging about him, he's even a more lame version because you can't send him off to die. Every DS3 NPC is a less interesting version of a previous NPC.
>>337939335
I hope so, but even that won't change the main game and the fact that the DLC was announced before release looks even more than a cashgrab
>>337939382
Then why does the handmaiden remember you visiting her if you speak with her at the untended graves first
>>337939442
How's your sex life now that you're married?
>>337932582
underrated post
>>337939502
If they were a different time, the messages wouldn't show up both ways.
>>337938458
I can see why these would be frustrating. The only point I would disagree with is the bosses being gimmicks. I guess I am fortunate that most of these are very minor issues to me.
Except playstyle limitation (and to a lesser degree the upgrade material issue), completely agree on that and it sucks that the most viable build is to start as a Knight and never change any equipment for the whole game.
>>337939570
It's great when my wife's lover agrees to let me watch, but sometimes they get a little bit too intimate and ask me to wait outside.
>>337939573
What's underated about this post?
What's even good about it?
>>337939529
Laurentius didn't talk about the flame being dangerous.
>>337939567
Yeah, good point. I at first thought we were looting stuff like the Blacksmith's hammer from Andre's corpse, but nah he just had it sitting there.
>>337939618
Messages time travel. Dude, we seriously can't be using them to discuss lore.
>>337939238
Dark Souls 3 is a 7/10 at most.
You can see the DaS 2 mediocrity seep through.
Bloodborne and Dark Souls 1 will forever be the best games.
>>337939673
It's probably some faggot that got upset nobody replied to his post
Don't give him a (you)
>>337939667
Kek'd
So what happened to Priscilla in the painted world? Does she even get mentioned in the game?
>>337939529
Neither of them go on about the flame being dangerous
He gives you the flame because he's the pyromancer npc, how else would you have handled that? They're completely different characters other than that
>>337938846
>>337938763
>>337938590
Remind me of these CRAZY things that the previous souls games did?
>>337939667
kek
>>337939618
The soapstone transcend time, that was already established in Dark Souls 1 with Dusk literally using one to time travel and Solaire straight up telling you they do
>>337939515
Oh come the fuck on, now you can stop sucking ENBs dick
No i'm not developing a fucking 2d game, but i have an 8-9 hour job, visit my parent every second or third day and still spend enough time with my family and videogames
>>337939570
Not too bad, way more foreplay than before, but also not nearly as often as in the beggining. But after a few years sex isn't that great anymore to begin with
>>337939698
>Messages time travel. Dude, we seriously can't be using them to discuss lore.
Well, considering we're arguing over something that has no basis in reality in the game and is pure speculation I'd think anything would be important.
>>337939757
Eaten by Aldrich if anything
>>337939757
Very briefly
People will tell you she was eaten by Aldrich, but that's wrong
He dreamt about her while eating Gwyndolin and gained her lifehunt scythe as a miracle
>>337939761
Something called new ideas, weapons, armor, bosses and enemies.
>>337939761
Remind me of those crazy new areas that are totally different from DS1 or DeS
>>337939803
Sure you do, anon.
Sure you do.
>>337939859
Source?
>>337939859
>>337939840
Here we fucking go
>>337939859
He is right you know
>>337939956
Grow up kid.
Is having a job now something that is impossible, but developing a game takes up 20 hours of your day is totally fine?
>>337939962
The description of her miracle
Lifehunt scythe or something
>>337939962
The Lifehunt Scythe miracle description.
>>337939665
Glad you can enjoy the bosses, I end up disliking 2/3rds of the game because they don't get good for me until Lothric and after.
>>337938590
It didn't make me wow, but it was an improvement after DaS2
>>337939962
...the lifehunt scythe miracle
>>337939991
There's no fucking proof he ate anyone but mooks and Gwyndolin
Unless you have actual lore or item descriptions backing up these claims, then fuck off
Speculation and implications don't count
>>337939698
>I at first thought we were looting stuff like the Blacksmith's hammer from Andre's corpse, but nah he just had it sitting there.
But you do loot stuff from the firekeeper, your own and potentially the Handmaid's corpse.
>>337940069
>Grow up kid.
Where do you think you are right now?
Even if you do have a wife, kid and a job you don't have a life if you're posting here.

>>337940154
I said that >>337939859
was right you iliterate monkey
>>337940198
I know, but he acts like it's fucking impossible to have a job. But making a game is totally fne and true
>>337940261
You replied to me saying "he is right you know"
Didn't sound like you were talking to me
>It's another "wow, holy shit ya'll this boss is awesome" episode

I know, I can't believe people can enjoy things. If only they were soulless grouches like us.
>>337940412
>How dare he enjoy something I don't!
>>337940365
Alright fair enough
>>337940412
>every second DS3 boss
>WOW this is one of the most awesome souls bosses ever!
>>337940412
I'm at the point where I hope a 2nd playthrough will illuminate how shit his initial impressions are. But then again I think he will delude himself into thinking they are amazing because he turned down a shitload of money to play it blind.
NEW UPLOAD FUCKING WHEN
ENB GET THE FUCK IN HERE AND UPLOAD THE FUCKING VIDEO
>>337939238
Crystal Sage is a gimmick? Really it's just a caster fight, Aldritch has no gimmick he's just smash and magic and can't do a teleport AOE, Wolnir has a weak spot which have existed in every game ever for bosses,
>>337940134
Shame, can't even fix that with a patch.
I hope the DLC offers something more enjoyable for you.
>>337940487
Sorry I shouted at you
>>337940412
I don't understand the dislike for deacons
>>337940537
It has Miyazaki as director in the credits
He will never hate on it unless it's Bloodborne. Even though Miyazaki only joined DS3 like halfway thourgh development
Despite how much i hate the germanspy LP, he actually points out a lot of flaws
>>337940589
>Literally Pinwheel 2.0
>Wolnirs glowing weakpoints aren't a gimmick
I wonder if you even understand the meaning of gimmick.
>>337940624
They're piss easy if you're using a weapon witha wide arc
When will he upload the fucking episode?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>337940412
People shit on Borat of Boreal valley and I still like him.
>>337940624
Mob bosses are typically seen as lazy design.
>>337940668
Probably true, Might be time to stop watching his shit.
>>337940690
I wonder if you do
Crystal Sage may be easy, but he is by no means a gimmick
>>337932501
Shrine of Storms
>>337940668
What, he hates bloodborne now?
>>337940771
Good early game boss IMO.
He can also fuck your shit up if you get cocky.
>>337940607
No problem. I was rude aswell.
>>337940690
It's more like Fools Idol 3.0, but way worse
Every boss gimmick or gimmick boss introduced in DeS wasn't toppe yet, it's a shame
>>337940721
Still a nice concept, seems like a lot of people dislike the easier bosses
I guess they gimped the early game bosses after seeing gascoigne's stats in bloodborne
>>337940791
It was done in an interesting way, it's no congregation or royal rat vanguard, and I don't think the vanguard was that bad either honestly
Why is magic so SHIT in this game? Is it really just too strong of a reaction to Dark Soul II, in which magic was a little too powerful?
I mean, not only are spells themselves pretty weak, thus forcing you to use one of the only two viable ring loadouts, but you're also forced to have less Estus than a pure melee character.
On top of all that, From FUCKED Attunement. It's much worse than magic being weak. Let's compare DaS1 and DaSIII ATN:
>DaS1
>10 ATN = 1 slot
>12 ATN = 2 slots
>14 ATN = 3 slots
>16 ATN = 4 slots
at this point, you need one more point of ATN than last time, 2, to get a new slot, and this goes on until you have ten slots at 50 ATN.
>19 ATN = 5 slots
>23 ATN = 6 slots
>DaSIII
>10 ATN = 1 slot
>14 ATN = 2 slots
>18 ATN = 3 slots
>24 ATN = 4 slots
>30 ATN = 5 slots
>40 ATN = 6 slots
You also need 99 ATN for 10 slots, 49 more than you needed in DaS1.
Why did they fuck over all magic users SO FUCKING HARD in this game?
>>337939757
>>337939840
>>337939859
>>337939962
Ok so seriously, it's about time we admit Miyazaki probably forgot about her. Either that or she's in DLC.
>>337940624
I love the initial moment where you walk into the fight, but everything afterwards is a disappointment. They are incredibly non-threatening and their coolest attack(the curse channel) takes a fucking year to get up and running.
>>337940902
No, but he doesn't really love it either. More like neutral, but he dislikes some of the lore and story because of his wifes miscarriages and dislikes the dark tone
>>337937602
You guys think Lobos looked up how to get to the Peak? I'm not sure I buy his reaction to the area where you're meant to sit.
>>337940996
because magic is for shitters
>This thread will die before the episode goes live.
>>337940883
>Caster that teleports away every few attacks and creates clones isn't a gimmick
Go away child, adults are talking.
>>337940996
Magic was pretty strong in most souls games, but now it's pretty bad. I wish they would finally just balance all of their fucking mechanics
I never really use magic, but it's still fucked up that after 10 years they still can't balance their games for shit
>>337940953
I think a lot more people would be okay with vanguard if rats didn't cause curse in Dark Souls 2
>>337941027
But her Miracle has a direct reference to her in its description, on top of the existence of the Miracle itself.
Plus, Yorshka is the same type of crossbreed as her, so there's some funky stuff going on there.

I think everything about magic in this game would be fine if they just tweaked the numbers slightly. I have a lot more int than str and I'm still better off swinging my sword, what.
>>337941148
Every single boss is a gimmick
>Dudes in armor are a gimmick
>Shit ton of dudes in robes are a gimmick
>Gwyndolyn 2.0 is a gimmick
>Big Ciaran is a gimmick
>Artorias wannabe is a gimmick
>Crazy dragon is a gimmick
>Gay brothers are a gimmick
>Soul of cinder is a gwymmick
You can´t prove me wrong
>>337941226
But why on earth did they go out of their way to fuck it so hard in this game? So few spells are actually good, and most of the good ones require multiple slots, so there is literally only two viable full magic builds. Sorcerer and pyromancer.
You have no choice as to which rings you want or anything
>>337940996
>Other games it's overpowered
>In this game it's underpowered
It's almost like From needed to actually attempt to balance magic instead of just nerfing the numbers. In Dark Souls 1, magic would literally break the game. Enemies wouldn't respond to getting hit with magic, or they'd start attacking the air. It's STILL like this in Dark Souls 3 sometimes.
>>337941072
Its a real shame too, because for everything he praises about any of the other games BB has it in spades. Sucks he'll never come around on it and instead will continue to cling to a shittier game forever.
>>337940953
I like deacons it was an interesting fight, just offering a possible explanation.
Every DaS2 boss (base game I didn't play the DLC) was boring or tedious for me. Very forgettable experience. Vanguard was either really hard or easy depending on whether or not you had a ranged attack to kill the toxic rats.
>>337941578
You're thinking of royal rat authority
>>337941561
See, I'm kind of okay with the spells themselves being pretty weak. It's not that big of a deal, but the Attunement thing pisses me off to no end.
If a general nerf is getting hit with a bat, From called the fucking Yakuza to teach magic a lesson.
>>337940996
The problem with attunement is that it is linked to FP.
They must have felt that having access to lots of spells and a large FP bar was too unbalanced.
>>337940624
Not hardcore enough for the tryhards.
Also they are trivialized by a couple of alluring skulls because they just aimlessly wonder to it leaving the main dude open for you to bash.
I liked it. It was nice for taking out frustrations on. I also liked playing bowling with the fat guys.
>>337940910
Wanna grab a bite or something
>>337941765
Just give it a stronger softcap on FP, then.
>>337941094
just watched it and it felt a bit forced yeah
>>337941802
Sure
>It's a painted world of the Abyss episode.
>>337941741
I am. Vanguard was okay, Authority was ass.
>>337932501
in terms of what? level design? atmosphere?
for me
des - latria
das - painted world
das2 - brume tower
das3 - grand archives
bb - fishing hamlet
overrall best level design - grand archives
overrall best atmosphere - fishing hamlet
I almost wish he would've done a blind run on Bb just to see how he likes it. He clearly was kinda bored since he made the guide and just disliked too many things without any reasons
>>337932501
I fucking loved painted world and duke's archives, brightstone cove tseldoranot even jokingand undead settlement was really fun to play through for me.
Where do you want the DLCs to take place?
I want one in Londor, where the Hollows welcome your arrival and you protect them from Way of White clerics, while uncovering more lore about the Deep.
>>337938183

Inherently, no, but Agility is horrid and Adaptability increases it.

>>337942425
The guys that did that DS2 video that suddenly made everyone hate DS2
>>337942532
>literal dreams
Fuck off
So is there a place in the world of Dark Souls where people just live their lives? Like driving cars and shit?
>>337942620
No.
>>337931709
No seath fucked gwynavere
Learn the lore
>>337942620
Probably some convoluted time bullshit dimension
>>337942543
I love DS2, if I watch the video will I hate DS2 ?
>>337942524
I don't think agility is horribly, it's just unintuitive when you come straight from DS or DS3 but it gives you more control over your playstyle.
>>337942620
Maybe
>>337942685
I thought Miyazaki was based but he's not creative enough to create a place where creatures go out to buy food or fix their house or some shit? Damn son.
>>337942828
Nah, i watched the video and DS2 has it's flaws. But it's still pretty good, DS3 feels a bit mre poilished, but tries literally nothing new in terms of gameplay, areas, weapons, armor, bosses etc.
>>337942828
Agility is horrible because it lets a fatass fatroll in full Havel's with more iframes than me at 30% equip load.
Wouldn't be too much of a problem if Soul Memory didn't match me up with grossly overleveled players all the time, but it does.
>>337942532
well from a level design standpoint i would choose research hall, but fishing hamlet is my favorite area in bb visually, plus the level design is solid too boot.
>>337942871
At this point Miyazaki just relies on the souls fans to figure out the lore and story for him
>>337942952
b-but muh weapon arts
>>337942952
My problem with DS3 is that gameplay and graphics aside it's a straight downgrade from 2, there is what, half the content, 1/3 of the weapons and armors, half the spells and gimped magic/miracles
>>337943065
Same with the Archives in both 1 and 2 and I think Bloodborne.
What the fuck do these fucked up creatures need books for?
>>337943160
But because miyazaki nobody is saying shit.
>>337943196
To read
>>337943160
The DLC will hopefully add a bit, but it was clearly cut. The fact that it was announced as a full addon like Artorias and Old Hunter before release is such a fucking cashgrab
>>337943223
>all the games with Miyazaki at the helm including Bloodborne have terrible covenants and online
coincidence ?
also I miss the ascetics system
WHERE IS THE VIDEO REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>337939761
Remember when they threw two dragonriders at you insted of one? Or blue smelter demon, completely different from the red one? Or gargoyles boss with FIVE gargoyles instead of 2 like in first dark souls. Good times.
>>337943340
How are they gonna read these books with either huge hands or whatever they have though?
>>337943405
Remember when DS3 tried anything new?
Me neither
>>337943160
Yeah, it's not like DaS2 had 3 DLCs or anything.
>>337939761
The Anor Londo archer in DS1 alone was crazier than most things they tried after.
They memed development too hard
>>337943423
What huge hands? In DaS1, Seath had the Channelers read to him, and the Grand Archives in DaSIII is inhabited by normal sized people.
>>337943496
even in the base game DS2 has more content than base DS3, or are you going to try and deny that ?
>>337943475
Soul of cinder switching fighting styles on the fly is new.
That's really it tho

The game is not bad but it's pretty clearly the Skyrim of Dark Souls
BEEENUSWEEENUSOF COURSEE XDDD
>>337943546
hmm I guess so...
Still they should add cars and supermarkets for realism. It's just absurd to think the monsters don't ever go out to buy food.
>>337943658
Can't wait for dying against the boss on purpose

Who are Yorshkas parents?
>>337940135
Nope, DS2 has better bosses.
The DLC is DS3's last hope to not be bottom tier with DeS.
>>337943756
I don't understand what you're talking about. Huge, impossible castles are okay, intricate mechanical elevators are okay, but books are not?
>>337943793
>he has a point but better tell him it's a reddit post
for what purpose
>>337943616
It was cool at first but just like all things in the game, it HAD to have a Ds1 reference and was just Gwyn for the second part of the fight. Hearing the Lord of Cinder piano start to play in the second phase actually triggered my autism. I get it's a sequel but even at the end it's just relying off the other games hype too much
>>337943809
It's just another case of
>let's try to make this BB/DS1/DeS area/concept again
Which is 99% of DS3
It's a kiln of the first flame episode.
>>337943873
most enemies have like 20% chance to drop them, I farmed the Lothric knights a bit for their spear in High Wall and got like 35
>>337926818
>Elevator retread from earlier in the game
>What a neat piece of design! Miyazaki obviously did this
Fuck off ENB, its gotten to be too much at this point.
>>337943935
According to a cut item Yorshka is Gwyndolin's sister.
>>337943809
Well it has a lot of really cool loot, so nah
>>337943947
I agreed with ouy until bottom tier DeS
DeS has some of the best NPCs, visual level design, gimmick bosses, dude with sword bosses, boss designs that no souls game tried again, best hub, actual good weapon variety without having 30 weapons with the same moveset
>>337943809
I wish it were the first area desu
>>337944091
...well she calls Gwynevere her sister, and Gwyn her father, so I don't think cut content is really needed here.
>>337944070
>random titanite shard
>just a fucking titanite shard
>NEAT MUST BE MIYAZAKI AT WORK AGAIN
Yeah ENB as if Miyazaki developes the game all by himself
>>337943952
nah your crazy for suggesting any of these creatures has anything of intelligence left if the first thing they do is try to kill you
>>337944185
DeS gameplay and bosses are garbage, it will forever be bottom tier.
>>337944280
Yes, but the item out right stated it.
>>337944365
Who says they're still reading the books?
>>337944365
maybe because you're a trespasser
>>337944369
The gameplay barely changed and the bosses are better than most of the bosses in DS1 especially teh gimmick bosses or shit like old hero and old king
>>337944091
>>337944280
But why is she like fucking Priscilla?
And you could argue Gwyn fucked a dragon or something, or that the Firstborn fucked a dragon maybe?
But why the fuck is Yorshka NOT Priscilla? Why not put priscilla in the game instead?
>>337943809
The boss is cool even if it is Gundyr 2.0
But more than anything, it ruffles my autism about how you get there. An illusory wall after the King's Garden. Why the FUCK is it behind that random wall? In Ds1 and BB you go to the secret areas by returning to where you started the game and then picking up some kind of key. It would have made a lot more sense if you go back to where you start the game, get back in the coffin, and wake up in Untended Graves. Just an idea off the top of my head but ANYTHING would have made more sense.
ENB I know your here and why the fuck are you torturing us with a 1 hour long video?I still love you though thanks for making the vids
>>337944318
He really does act like that, I hope some design doc comes out for DS3 revealing that Miyazaki did minimal work at best on it because no way in hell he contributed as much as people let on.
>>337944518
>But why is she like fucking Priscilla?
Because that's probably just what perfect crossbreeds look like.
>>337944426
How the fuck are those books still there and not burned up by now from all the fires and crazy shit that happens? The little shitheads flaming claymore must have burned some cloth at some point in time, right?
>>337944483
Hmm that makes sense in a game that totally doesn't.
>>337944280
I'm guessing Yorshkas mother is the same as Priscillas.
>>337944703
>How the fuck are those books still there and not burned up by now from all the fires and crazy shit that happens?
Who's to say their curse doesn't protect them?
>>337944703

FUCKING WHY!!!!!!!
>video uploaded 8 mins ago
>people already complain

>>337945106
DS3 isn't quality either
It's "Hey let's copy this area of DS1/DeS/BB again and let's have no new ideas at all" The Game
>>337932804
Okay, then why is it that you get a bonfire in the room where you beat the Abyss Watchers, then go down into the Catacombs of Carthus and there's no bonfire? There isn't a bonfire in Catacombs until you're halfway through the area, and it's a nonissue because the Abyss Watchers bonfire is literally one staircase away from the beginning of the Catacombs.
There's no reason the Crystal Sage bonfire couldn't be the first bonfire of the Cathedral of the Deep, especially considering there's yet another bonfire very shortly after the one right after the Crystal Sage. There's no reason that the Dragonslayer Armour bonfire couldn't be the bonfire for the beginning of the grand archives.
>>337945067
"This sword, one of the rare dragon weapons,
came from the tail of Seath the Scaleless,
the pale white dragon who betrayed his own.
Seath is the grandfather of sorcery, and this
sword is imbued with his magic, which shall
be unleashed as a wave of moonlight."
-Moonlight GreatSword
Seems unlikely.
There's a theory Velka is the mother, maybe Velka was a child of a dragon?
I really hope there's some Velka DLC for DaS3.
>>337945191
Read the thread
>>337945106
most of DS3 is pretty average desu, the game picks up in the settlement, peaks at Pontiff then it's all downward with a spike in the optional areas
>>337945276
What I can't wrap my head around is that FROM suddenly chooses to introduce a new sibling of Gwyn and that she's a copy of Priscilla no less.
Either there's a grand revelation or it's just shitty fanservice like Siegward of Memerina
>>337945106
aside from some of the later areas and bosses das3 is bland as fuck
with the dlc das2 trumps it in terms of quantity and also matches it in quality
>>337945302
I've been reading the thread though are you literally figuratively retarded?

He should've taken his time and actually design some more armor sets and weapons instead of reusing 90% of the old ones
>>337945562
can he just say the game is trash or something? he literally never talks about it. i want him to make a video where he just says wtf he thinks of the game at this point
>>337945784
>Thinking Memezaki would let a chance to push more Ds1 references in his game slide
Expect the DLC to be New Londo Ruins or ruined Painted World
>>337945562
but ENB loves dark souls 2?
>>337945894
I still want to see him play the DS2 DLC since he never played it. He will probably hate it for no reason
>>337930070
i think false firelink is just a safe haven, since npcs just teleport to there somehow. like patches ends up there but you dont actually see him teleport in like other npcs you talk to
>>337946040
His twitter was fucking shill central back then
>>337946040
Hopefully he'll stop being a retard and realize the hyperbole he's been spouting about DS3 is the exact same reaction he had when he was first playing DS2.
>>337946262
wow finally someone with common sense said this.
Just watch his first few DS2 walkthrough vids, he was all happy and shit when he started playing it. Kept liking the game way until the end. He probably realized midway the game is shit but has to keep up this act to not lose any viewers. Isn't his youtube channel his main source of income or does he have an actual job? I doubt, if YT is his income, he could just go out and say the game is bad, since most people who watch him are souls fans.
>he didn't fucking see it's the Undead Parish wrapping around the first flame
>I guess Lothric would be there
what the fuck
>>337946529
>Isn't his youtube channel his main source of income or does he have an actual job?
I don't think it was during DS2.
Those Princes had his number. He panicked about it all along
>>337946262
Yeah his reactions to bosses and stuff does feel quite forced
Most of the time he sounds bored, I think he's not exploring areas like Demon Ruins, King's Garden etc because he doesn't like the game and just wants to get it over with
He also might just want to do a second playthrough but second playthroughs where you try to see the game from a different build/playstyle are where this game REALLY falls appart
>>337946863
I think you are projecting a bit with the wanting to get it over with. But he certainly will see all the games flaws magnified upon repeated playthroughs. Then again he's an idiot so who knows. He might forgive all the bullshit of the game because m-muh miyazaki
>>337946529
If you pay attention to his early walkthrough videos he talks about how shitty the fanservice is concerning Andre being in Firelink for no reason.
He also acts weird when he finds Siegward, another shitty fanservice.
Then he realizes he has to please the majority for those $$$$ and since then he's been lying about how much he loves the recycled areas over and over again.
BTW he missed Izalith, the Garden, Archdrake Peak and Untended Graves.
I just dont believe he's playing blind at this point. He never seems to miss anything for some magical reason.
>Everyone shitting on ENB using tears of denial
>Actually saves him in a boss fight
>tears of denial actually saved his fucking life for once
Holy shit, that was actually pretty amazing.
He literally beat the boss while having 1 hp and no estus lol
>>337947037
If he would play like a person that actually played all the souls games for 10k+ hours he would never even need tears of denial
>>337946621
are you stupid
its lothric, why would it be anything else
reminder that an anon watched ahead on vessel and saw that liam tells pat where the invisible bridge to darkmoon is, and woolie reading guides for a certain ending, and that pat isn't actually playin blind
>>337947262
People are still watching that shit?
I unsubbed from their shitty channel because of the Demon Souls stream.
They all suck ass.
>>337947234
can't tell if you're being ironic
>>337947132
Let's be honest.
ENB's never been a PRO souls player and never will be, and that's okay. That's not what he's here for.
His passion for the game's mechanics and story are why people watch him, and what make him a great member of the community.
So fucking what if he's shit at the games, he always beats them and then takes the time to piece together the story as best as he can.
To me, that's far more interesting than someone who just makes PVP videos.
He completely forgot about the garden, didn't he?
>>337947478
Looks like it.
Any leaks for DLC yet? I know you fuckers are hyped for that even if the maingame is a little disappointing.
DLC seems to have fixed every single Soulsborne game.
>>337947380
they definitely went to shit in the past year or two
when hegets to the second phase of Lord of Cinder and starts manually playing Gwyn's theme over his own audio
>>337947478
And Old Demon Ruins
And Archdrake Peak
And Untended Graves of course
If he somehow now gets back to them there is NO WAY I'll believe he's playing blind
>>337947386
>shrine overlooks lothric the whole game
>at the end you teleport to future abandoned shrine that overlooks ruined lothric
what is there to fucking get? its lothric.
>>337947463
I just expected a little more form someone that played this much, that's it. I'm not saying he has to be a souls pro
LOCK. THE FUCK. ON.
my gripe is the game is short like bloodborne. even shorter if you count old hunters.
shorter than ds1 with sequence breaking
>>337947553
He probably didn't even notice the piano notes because he plays with music almost turned off to "help him concentrate" better further proving how tunnel visioned and unfocused he can be.
>>337947660
Well you gotta realize he's an old man now with a wife and kid.
He's just not gonna be that good, sorry.
>>337947594
He just said at the end of the last episode that demon ruins is up next.
But it seems like the obvious next place to go would be the garden, since he literally stopped ten feet from a boss fog.
>>337947553
in his first artorias fight he removed the boss music and added in ash lake music over it
>>337947771no he blurts out *gasp* GWYNS THEME??!?! and then starts playing Gwyn's theme for like 5 minutes.alsohes going to demon ruins next episode so i guess he didnt forget
>>337947927
Doing content when you're past the level curve is boring as fuck.
>>337947553
I thought you were memeing jfc
>Oh wow now he uses chaos and miasma
>Power that he uses mirrors powers of the Lords
Maestro of Lore, ladies and gentlemen, can't piece 2 and fucking 2 together, and instead goes for some conveluded shit. I bet Velka is involved too.
>>337947594
He saw all those places except Archdragon. It not surprising at all if he goes there in fact.
>>337948018
demon ruins is boring as fuck anyway
>>337947594
i would be impressed if anyone found archdragon peak on their own.
>>337933310
Why so mad thou??
>>337948098
He's going to out level all of the optional areas though at this rate.
>>337948018
>Doing content when you're past the level curve is boring as fuck.
This. That's why the playstyle of rushing the main path leaving optional areas for later is shit.
>>337926818
>Rehashed moment from a previous game
>LOL BEST AREA
I loved that whole thing with the abandoned workshop because it was creepy as fuck finding it and it made you start to question what was happening in the game. I mean I get that you can easily explain the whole two fire link shrines in DaS III but it just left a bad taste in my mouth and it felt forced for some reason.
>>337948098
How would he know that? You talk like he already knows what all the areas are
>>337948113
I did, it's really not that obscure as there is a developer message telling you to try gesture
>>337948021
Yeah I'm questioning ENB as a whole with this playthrough.
From the Dark was impressive but now I'm wondering if ENB is that smart at all or if he just read all the lore online and did a playtrhough readind that.
If you like lore I recommend Hawkshaw, he's relatively new and only has 2 videos but they're great
>>337948021
>His reaction to SoC as the player character isn't that of joy like a rational person instead its lame because its not Gwyn
>Later its Gwyn so he squeels and plays the music over the fight
He's everything wrong with the fanbase, rather than focus on a legitimately great boss fight he focuses on the meme-fight that is Gwyn 2.0
>>337948312
>developer message telling you to try gesture
No there isn't
Wait, did he not realize that Soul of Cinder is pretty much chosen undead?
>>337948320
BB broke him
>>337947732
Why does this bother people so much?
I play locked off for some enemies, typically big enemies, mobs or when I am on a tight ledge because the camera can get you killed.
>it's a runs around in an area looking at nothing interesting for 7 minutes and not cutting it episode
>gets the buckler out
>fails parry and die
>then abandons SoC to go to demon ruins
what a pointlessly long episode
>dies to old demon king and never goes back/skips demon ruins/doesn't even attempt to kill the worm

>dies in garden and leaves 80k souls and never goes back
>progresses even though he is obviously at the final boss
>>337945209
Anor londo, thats it.
What other area now?
>>337948320
From the Dark was probably like his 10th playthrough of course he would know everything.
He did started piecing together lore pieces from when the game first came out himself without any wikis.
All the lorefaggots now are trying to imitate his style.
>>337948461
Because usually people that play like that actually hit the enemy and know how to dodge
>>337948409
He lost all credibility when he said he didn't like it as much as the others. For being a lore-fag to the core he ignores the game that has the most cohesive and consistant, along with the best thought out. No bullshit "time is convoluted" bullshit. Just everything having meaning and fitting together.
>soul of cinder
>I guess you could be the last boss...

>cannot figure out what to do for 20 (TWENTY) MINUTES
>this is even when he is not in the fight just pondering what to do
how you play demons souls and not put 2 and 2 together?
>>337948620
>doesn't notice him wielding the FUCKING BONFIRE SWORD
>>337948359
B-but he needs LORE and answers for everything in DS1 or else the game is just pandering with meaningless references.
>>337948589
Yeah but he seems unusually retarded on this playthrough.
I dont blame him for not figuring out DaS 3 lore, but I do blame him for not remembering a fuckload of stuff from DaS 1 that is quite clear in DaS 3.
It's like he's slow or of low intelligence or something.
>>337948461
Being locked on makes strafing easier.
>he isn't hard enough to be the final boss
Compared to what other final souls bosses ?
>>337948747
it's a shambles
>>337948747
He does that sometimes. He didn't notice the double spears on the npcs in Anor Londo too. I don't even know what he's looking at playing.
>>337948620
>'I don't want to beat the game yet'
>'If I see anything that looks like the final boss, I'm 'peacing out''
>Continues to rush through the game
And it still isn't' the worst DS3 playthrough on YT, but it's a close 2nd.
>>337948663
I'm starting to suspect he's kind of a fraud.
In the sense that he's not that bright to start with and can't really figure out lore or remember stuff any other fan of the series would instantly remember.
Also notice how he stopped complaining about rehashed unoriginal content when his audience started accusing him of not liking DaS 3.
He's just there for the money like the rest it seems.
>>337948406
No, he literally didn't. This is the problem with ENB. He looks so far into things he can't even understand the obvious.
>>337948917
>OoK is widely considered the best boss in the series
>Never mentions it once, or any of the old hunter bosses for that matter
Fuck him
>>337948620
Dude.
Dude!
DUDE!
I think this might be the last boss.
>>337948856
Noted and agreed but surely it isn't 100% required all the time? Like I said, in tight area it screws the camera up and gets you (read: me) killed more often than if I play locked off.
>>337949074
He never played the DLC because BB sucks lmao
>I'm a little bit worried that that's the last boss
Are you fucking serious? It has a form for every build!
>>337948917
I have a feeling I can't shake at all that all Souls final bosses are gimme fights tbth
>I have a feeling this could be the last boss
>It's like an overpowered player character with moves it shouldn't have
>this could be the last boss
this is terrible
>>337948663
But he immediately realized that this is the way to kill him because of DeS.
This is the only weapon that has a charge on the L2 in the entire game. It's not really that obvious.
You are being kinda unfair now.
>>337949181
He's mentioned he's played it, just didn't record it.
>>337949227
Gehrman was fantastic
>>337949297
Remember how he was hyping up that huge Bloodborne lore video that ended up never happening?
What the fuck?
>>337949297
He wrote a guide for it, no?
Either way, seems dumb when you have a youtube channel to not record everything you do if you think people might want to see it.
>>337949324
Love the fight, it's easy though.
>>337949324
Gehrman isn't a souls boss
>>337949279
He also probably should have remembered how it functioned in demon's, no?
>oh in that game you sliced the air and made big cuts
>perhaps, just maybe, this one does the same thing?? no let me spam r1.
>>337949382
He'd rather play DS2 than BB at this point
He also always says that BB has no build variety and replay value, yet he always plays the same fucking build in every souls game and doesn't give a shit
>specs into Deep Protection
>Won't use it because it erases his crutch of denial
what a fucked up build
cant wait to jump back to Bloodborne after finishing the series from DeS again.
parrying in Bloodborne never gets old
>>337949009
He still remembers a lot of shit from DS1 though like npc names and location most people would forget.
>He's just there for the money like the rest it seems
If he was there for the money he would've taken the early game copy which he explicitly refused to do even though he later said he could've made 3 times more cash if he had.
It's the only reason I still have respect for him because he does like the game, he just has extremely unrealistic and high expectation from them, especially after meeting with Miyazaki and hearing about their design philosophies. He now thinks everything has a deep reason behind it.
>>337949227
I liked Gwyn
It made sense that you could parry him and cheese him lore-wise as he was weak. He's still difficult if you dont parry.
However this Soul of Cinder is utter bullshit. Reincarnation of all previous souls? come on FROM, what the fuck? Why must they fuck up all the lore? Why can't they say the last boss is the Chosen Undead?
This was also the perfect chance to include an online-type of boss like DeS, where the boss is controled by another high level player that has beaten the game for the second time.
>>337949669
I wish he'd go back and finish the Witcher 3.
