>lol dude just parry
Is this the worst designed final boss in a From game?
Lol dude just parry
>Parry
Pathetic. First time I played DaS I tanked this fucker with a greatshield and just kept whacking him.
No. You fucking jiggers who think bosses should all be hard can just fuck off. You’re the reason this series has turned into a dodge spam fest every single fucking boss.
>t. 40 yo boomer with shitty reflexes
kys and make way for the new generation
You didn't know to parry him unless someone told you or you looked it up. If you parried him, you cheated not just the game, but also yourself.
I guarantee you did not find out on your own that Gwyn could be parried. Somebody had to do it, yeah, but I know it wasn't you user. So that means you looked it up or summoned help, doing either makes you a bitch
>using a shield or heavy armour
Why? It makes the game boring as fuck. Just learn to dodge you pussies
It's a mediocre boss in the worst designed From game.
You can literally just wear full Havels and facetank every hit, healing with your 20 Estus flasks. Like most bosses.
>You didn't know to parry him unless someone told you or you looked it up.
Literally all the soap messages in front of his fog gate are "try parry". The only way you'd miss those is if you pirated the game.
more like
>full havels
>grass crest shield on back
>two handing lucerne
>pop elizabeth's mushroom
>mash R1/RB
>face chug estus thanks to high poise
it is how I beat the game the first time
Sword and board is easily the most enjoyable way to play a DaS game. Rolling around half naked like a little bitch is for homosexuls who don't like fashionsouls.
So you're proving the user right, you only knew about it if someone told you.
Great job somehow looking dumber than an anime poster
In a world where Nashandra exists? no
>play the game the way it literally tells you to play it
>lol u're dumb xD
???
If you did at least one of the following:
>used the Master Key
>used summons
>killed the Gaping Dragon Channeler
>killed the Iron Golem Giant
>killed Ornstein first
>used Holy weapons on skeletons
>didn't face all 4 Kings at once
>instakilled Ceaseless Discharge
>parried Gwyn
then you did not complete Dark Souls.
Try booting up the game and give it another shot.
Not him, but the game didn't tell you. It was a message left by another player, not a dev. It would be like hopping into voice chat and them saying, "You can parry the boss." If you played only offline you wouldn't have known unless you used a guide. It really is because someone else told you. I don't have an issue with that tho.
Fuck off retards. You can parry the majority of attacks in the game. Why would yet another of the many "guy with a sword" enemies be any different?
The only way to know it's cheating, is if you cheated your self. noballsgang
he's good because some of his moves are fast enough to border on your reaction time in a game where every boss winds up their shit for 20 full minutes
>bed of chaos takes that award by a long shot whoever thought that shit was a good idea deserves to be castrated.
>if you didn't do a naked barehanded run and beat Gwyn with only parries where you do a 360 AND point down before each riposte then you did not complete Dark Souls.
Who are you quoting?
>lol dude just parry
No, this is
>the virgin Gascoigne vs the chad Micolash
Was going to quote what he was saying but I'm kind of tired. My point stands BoC is by far the worst boss in the soulsborne series. I've never met anyone who actually liked that shit.
Anyone that parried didn't beat the game
Maria's the best boss in that game, pleb.
no, people who use cheat engine for infinite health are cheaters
people who use game mechanics put in by the developers played the game as intended
It was hilarious parrying this bitch to death the day the DLC launched. This fight was hyped up and was easily trivialized.
you don't have to use it
>nooooooooo you can’t just say Maria is bad! Maria good!
>nooooooooo you can’t just say Maria is good! Maria bad!
that wasn't the game telling you, that was other players. you basically went to in-game gamefaqs
>Is this the worst designed final boss in a From game?
No, but you're retarded for not seeing the strengths of this fight.
Okay mr parry2win
Why are you such a liar?
You used a guide just admit it.
The game establishes that bosses can't be parried. There are humanoid bosses much smaller than Gwyn that you can't parry yet Gwyn is can be parried for some reason.
He’s a /bbg/ tard, ignore him and let him go back to his dead general
A question, anons. (and sorry for bad Engrish) At what point enemies stop gettign stronger? I know it's possible to have NG++(99), but they don't get stronger every time... Right?
I want to start NG+ in DaS2 asap, but I'm afraid enemies will one shot my sorcerer. Especially if I ''abuse'' bonfire a. for more Soul Spear spells.
it's not like this game doesn't rely on the community finding out shit since most sidequests require doing totally arbitrary shit and you get locked out of them if you don't do things perfectly
even accessing the dlc is fucking retarded
>Why are you such a liar?
Nothing in that post was a lie though?
if you parry, you cheated not just the game, but also yourself
if you looked up builds, you cheated not just the game, but also yourself
if you looked up where to find weapons, you cheated not just the game, but also yourself
if you looked up how to do sidequests, you cheated not just the game, but also yourself
if you looked up how to get different endings, you cheated not just the game, but also yourself
if you looked up how to get the dlc content you paid for, you cheated not just the game, but also yourself
People who keep saying that are, ironically, the same people who used some - if not all - of that, plus guides for trophies.
Just fucking google it, it goes up to ng+7 at which point you can still burn them but it doesnt get more difficult.
Sekiro > DS
They made parry right eventually and fully integrated this orphan mechanic into the game.
The Elden Ring will be glorious.
i beat him without parrying or solaire
it was a fucking nightmare though
>stunlocks you
Tch, nothing personal.
Isshin, Sword Saint > Isshin Ashina > everything else that isn't Nashandra and Aldia > Nashandra and Aldia
MAIROBE MAIRABURERU
bloodletting beast is worse.
just stay behind the aggro line and shoot him to death lmao.
>bloodletting beast
How is that a final boss though?
If anything it's the loran darkbeast
I literally never parried in Dark Souls. By which I mean the entire series. Including Demon's and Bloodborne.
>says we have shitty reflexes
>still seethes at Sekiro
ok
You can easily go through all the games without parrying, but you're clearly encouraged to in Bloodborne.
deflecting in Sekiro has nothing to do with parrying in Souls, also it wouldn't fit in a RPG game with different weapons and magic
In 500 hours I never found the timing to parry anything without tanking a hit and at that point I didn't see a reason to bother
You just go to the enemies in one of the first areas and practice until you get it. You'll have plenty of vials and they'll hit low so death isn't anything to worry about. I don't parry a whole lot but putting in 10 minutes meant I was considerably better off for the rest of the game. Combine it with the rune that gives you back health with parries also makes Orphan a whole lot more manageable.
DaS1 and Bloodborne are the only games where it's worth the risk anyway
Parrying is one of the core fucking mechanics of the game to the point it has a dedicated button for it. Why the fuck would I not try and parry a humanoid sword wielding enemy?
>lol dude just parry
>still pure ludokino and an amazing penultimate/shit ending final boss
What’s his name, Yas Forums?
it's the pvpfags, don't mind them, for them the only valid way to beat the game is with a broken straight sword
again, you're coming off worse than an animeposter
take a few minutes to understand your actions and how to better yourself
