I may be small, but I will die a colossus

Just like you do :)

He willed himself to be a lord.

He WAS the Soul Eater that his ring described. He devoured souls to gain strength and was burned alive.

Praythee, be careful.

The twin princes bossfight is also a top 5 fight in the series, great music too.

they hired actual actors for npc dialogue

I feel like Dark Souls 3's devs took inspiration from Dark Souls 2's nonstop buffet of armored humanoids and went "hmm how can we make these fights more interesting"

so he did what the tranny dude was doing to everyone? he ate people?

Gwyndolin was not Aldrich. Aldrich ate Gwyndolin.

Also not necessarily. Devouring a soul is not 1:1 with devouring someone's flesh. But yes, in a manner of speaking they're the same. Just like how you are a creature that feeds off souls.

The inspiration for the twin princes came certainly from the throne defenders boss fight.

>Gwyndolin was not Aldrich. Aldrich ate Gwyndolin
oh yeah. I had forgotten that detail already.

They were both lords of cinders, both feed on other people (one cnsumed flesh the other souls but it ends up being the same thing because both involve killing)

10/10 voice actor. The voice delivery in Souls games are so fucking memorable sometimes.

I didnt even fucking realize this NPC had lines until like 2 weeks ago.

Not like the player character is one to talk. You're just a monster killing other monsters

WAT

ds3 questlines are far too complicated and can hardly be completed without a guide

Yeah dude, he talks. Its behind the house with all the hooded thralls before you drop down to be carried to the moundmaker covenant spot.

To be fair that's true for 90% of the questlines for the series.

>ds3 questlines are too hard
Are you stupid? Most of them you can complete just following along. Especially when you're going to compare it to the previous games which have abysmal character story telling. You had to see every single character's story on the first run so you looked it all up didn't you?

>Most of them you can complete just following along.
That one darkmoon blade lady's quest structure is fucking abysmal for how it just has you expected to randomly go back to old areas.

Depends, following them till the end is complicated, but even failing some give consequences to the player that at least might force him to ask what the fuck did he do wrong for that to happen (Irina's questline for example, she goes corrupted if you buy any spells from her).

>be ds2 questline
>have to fall off some obscure fucking cliff onto a narrow ledge to talk to one of the most best characters in the game
although i admit
>be ds1 questline
>give 30 humanity to spider titties and open the shortcut early before sunbro arrives and kill the parasites to save him
can't think of a moment where it was hard to follow a ds3 questline though feel free to fill me in

>give dark braille tomes to irina
>description of said tomes say that they corrupt the person that reads them
>get surprised when she becomes corrupted after you buy a dark spell from her
hmmm.... yes...

yeah but i feel like siegward/patches/greirat is the ultimate clusterfuck alongside the londor people. correct me if i'm wrong but is it possible to fuck up siegmeyer's quest by progressing too far? solaire's quest was very simple until the very end if you want to save him using the covenant

no and no

i didn't really notice irina had a questline. i managed to open the door very late into my game

who was that ds2 character? i can't remember anyone except lucatiel of mirrah who was easy to find every time

The DSP school of vidya

you had to meet lucatiel in black gulch and after you talk to her, you get her summon sign to fight gravelord nito #2

>correct me if i'm wrong but is it possible to fuck up siegmeyer's quest by progressing too far?
Yes, extremely easily. If you go to a certain bonfire early you can fuck up both Siegmeyer's and Greirat's questlines.

Technically you only have to have her summoned for three out of four available boss fights so you can completely skip that one and be fine.

You can even summon her for a boss, ascetic, and summon her for the same boss to count for two on her quest.

Its crazy to think he linked the fire. Seems weak, but i guess it could be different if you haven't burned for an eternity. Should have been a DLC where you fight each lord in their prime

That quest is the Anju and Kafei questline of this game.

You either use a guide or simply won't be able to figure it all entirely.

fuck summons, never did that

siegmeyer is from DS1. DS3 siegward is easy to fuck up

You need to give them to her you retord.

It's buying the hexes that corrupts her.

Replaying a game enough often makes lines from a game memorable. Sonic the Hedgehog and Metal Gear Solid are proof of this.

I've never replayed the Sonic Adventure or MGS titles and their lines are still memorable to me.

>what about that one
What a great argument.

What memorable lines does Sonic have? Gotta go fast? First you say no, then you get outta there?

>he never had Sonic’s brawl taunt embedded into his memory
You can stop posting now

Hey don't get assblasted, I just pointed out a particularly bad one. If you wanted to I could actually check a wiki and go into detail about how bad stuff like Siegward and Greirat were, or how inconsistent and lame Patch's questline is

I'LL MAKE YOU EAT THOSE WORDS

I love how pissed the Dark Souls 2 NPCs get when you just run away from them without quitting the conversation.
>Oy! Mind your manners!
>People these days...
>Done so soon?

ah i remember that, didn't cheese with the ascetic thing though.

>fuck summons
did ds2 ever lock items if you didn't summon a particular npc or do a questline? i think not summoning that benhart dude didn't give you the foam moonlight greatstick

I missed virtually every questline in my blind run of DS3 except maybe Sirrus and Hodrick's. I don't mind, the games are supposed to be like that. They rely on player messages and internet searches to function. It's extremely easy to miss characters and even easier to fuck up their questline by simply progressing in the game without checking some arbitrary spot and talking to them.

I'm pretty sure giving her the tomes dooms her, you have to wait and ask Karla to teach you the dark miracles if you want to save her.

You should play Demons Souls. They have unique angry dialogue when you try to talk to them again.

shut the fuck up

>I'm pretty sure giving her the tomes dooms her, you have to wait and ask Karla to teach you the dark miracles if you want to save her.
No it does not but you're required to give it for some reason I don't remember anymore.

She then throws them away without being corrupted and that's when you pick them up to give them to Karla.

But if you want every spell from the game you will have to buy everything from her at one point too. Which will piss her beta orbiter and make him attack you in one area of the game.

when will they learn?

the highlight of each of my dark souls playthroughs was being able to whack griggs for the first time and then hear him say "heavens!" in his stupid posh voice

Another nana disappeared. "And the grandson carries a caaage! He ever has his caaage!"

...and nana never comes back.

So come into the caaage and become nana's shaaade.

What were their names again?

you don't necessarily have to give the londor and the other dark tome to her, you can give it straight to karla. that's what i did for my 100% run. even if you did give it to her on accident, you can give her the good tomes and do as said here , and she'll drop the bad tomes to give to karla to sell instead.

>bullying Griggs
That cute twink did nothing wrong and just wants to be friends with you

>send greirat on a mission
>he finds stuff
>think his gimmick is spending time away on fetch missions that last for a couple hours in game time
>he dies in irithyll

you can kill him or complete his questline for the same shit sword

>Its crazy to think he linked the fire.
He didn't. The Lords of Cinder didn't link the fire. That's the whole point of killing them. They are the pieces strong enough to allow the fire to be linked, but the other Lords decided to continue hanging out around their throne rooms instead of fulfilling their purpose.

Ornstein and Smough

the "do x before triggering y or you fail" was bullshit.

I leveled up until Yoel died before triggering some zone, so Yuria never showed up

Sent Greirat to steal before visiting some zone ,so he died

Thats some bullshit that you cant avoid when doing a first run

criplric and neetrian

I can't take this...

hey man, i only ever hit him once per run to hear him say that particular line! i actually like griggs myself

The Brothers Rimm

so basically all of them combined are the power level of the chosen undead ?

You're full of shit
I never found Siegward in the well without a guide, because you have no reason to go back there once his dialogue triggers

who sent greirat on his last run knowing fully well that he will die______

He was really protective of his waifu.

Sit here if you like

actually you have to find and send patches to save him at irithyll but not before you solve the onion knight armour quest (pretty sure)

then when you send greirat to lothric he will die anyway

according to the wiki
"The Lords of Cinder are heroes who have linked the First Flame and prolonged the Age of Fire, rather than become Dark Lords."

pffffhahahaha

I had turds that were more colossal than this manlet lmao

Sorry rat, but I really need your arrows.

Total tsundere about it as well.

>He didn't. The Lords of Cinder didn't link the fire
That is only true for Lothric.

Short nigger who's name I can't remember, Yhorm, The Abyss Watchers and Aldrich (not by choice) all linked the fire.

yhorm's whole lore is that he linked the fire and burned his loved capital and killed everyone in it.

Mystery Niggas

>every lord of cinder embers up in their second phase
>including lothric who supposedly never linked the fire
how

yeah ludleth's backstory and motivation were both really interesting... what were those again?

The part where he comes in and talks about how she's in a place filled with degenerates always makes me laugh. What an autist.

>everyone still hated him and basically welcomed it just to get rid of him
>Yhorm knew it and still did it anyways
Yhorm was a fucking baller

that fucking line.

Lorian had fire magic in his sword from fighting the Demon Prince, iirc. I don't think Lothric ever actually "embers up". Its just the sword.

He was the Soul Eater, he became a monster to try and save the world. Just because you don't think about things doesn't mean they aren't there.

wasn't it just lorian in that fight
