>haha the final boss to DS1 was, like, totally easy bro lolllllll When will this dumb fucking meme die? Everyone that parried him did so because they heard about it beforehand/looked it up on a guide; NO ONE goes into Gwyn's fight without knowing about it beforehand and thinks "oh well I'm just gonna parry him lol".
If you don't parry him, which you shouldn't unless if you're a shitter, he's one of the most aggressive bosses in the game, and in the entire series for that matter. He's relentless, gives you very little breathing room, has a leap attack that pounces across the room. and will stay on your ass constantly. As far as final bosses go, he's pretty damn good.
I finished a DS1 NG+7 playthrough, and a DS3 NG+7 playthrough both, and did all kinds of challenges from +0 weapons to broken weapons to a specific bad weapon only.
What did you do, mr gud?
Daniel Allen
I had sex with women
Levi Carter
Who the fuck hasn't. If that's your biggest achievement in life, you've lived a very sad life
Bentley Nelson
Are you retarded or something because I learned how to parry him by playing the game and if you spent less time spamming r1 maybe you could actually get good
>i totally spent the entire game not parrying bosses and figured out on my own that you can parry the final boss No, you didn't.
Yeah, you got me user. Despite having a wife and a kid on the way, I'm coping about some random elitist shitposter having had sex once in his life with a woman (male)

Asher Scott
You can backstab him, so that implies that you can parry him. that's how the game works
Parker Martin
I did it without parrying cause I heard it trivializes the fight. Took me like 20 tries, Gwyn does not fuck around
Liam Murphy
I actually have 1k hours in DS1 and I had no idea that you could backstab him
le cuck maymay. Go back to fucking r*ddit

You are no different to the Royal Guard faggots in Devil May Cry. It's not skill abusing rolling.
>this easy boss is hard because I give myself artificial limitations Woah big brain alert
Parker Reed
>Everyone that parried him did so because they heard about it beforehand/looked it up on a guide you have to be a brainlet to not think of parrying immediately after seeing his attacks, also he's like 5 hits with the max upgrade halberd, this boss is almost as easy as moon presence
Kayden Gonzalez
Na, magefag here. was easy mode. Also a Greataxefag, and he was even easier with that.
Robert Jackson
I did it my first try without any parries. He was easy although he took 19 estus admittedly.

>Parry LMAO, full Havel set and gigachad black knight GS made the trick.

>Ah yes lemme use my literal ass blast to just instant win because I don't know how to just use trickster >Ah yes the boss is coming lemme just parry and get dump damage >Ah yes here comes an attack I can't guard normally lets use reflect and instantly nuke the healthbar Counters in action games piss me off why do they just snap them all in half?
Aiden Rogers
>There are unironically people who use parries on this board >There are unironically people who used shields on this board 2kat or git out
DMC's evade iframes and royal guard has a lot stricter timing than any if baby mode souls game mechanic
Matthew Clark
>artificial limitations >using a mechanic that completely trivializes the encounter and literally no one would suspect would work on the final boss of all bosses You're the guy that played the entire game with 2 summons and sorcery only then bragged about how easy the game was, right?
Nolan King
you wait for him to do the hand grab, then you get a hit in. until then you just dodge. you also are given black knight shields on the run to the boss, which has 100 fire defense so you can block him foreer

Christopher Sanders
>literally every other boss can't be parried >somehow it was obvious to parry Gwyn
Samuel Thompson
>a mechanic that works on all humanoid, human-sized characters >someone, typically a smart person, notices this as Gwyn is a humanoid, human-sized character >NO NO YOU DIDN'T KNOW! YOU DIDN'T KNOW! THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!!!! YOU CHEATED!!!! fuck off retard
Juan Williams
I had a lot of trouble with him on my first run. I think the reason he’s considered so sways is because he has one of the easiest boss runs in the entire game.
Logan Brooks
Bitch, is 100% allowed, the old man couldn't do anything but get smashed and slammed.
Thomas Campbell
>human enemy >all other humans in game can be parried >NOOOOOOO YOU CAN'T JUST PARRY THE BOSS sorry you've got such a low IQ
Brandon Thompson
If you used any guide for anything in this game then you havent beaten it
Colton Howard
Did you try to parry Ornstein also? Capra Demon? Quelaag? Priscilla?
Chase Gutierrez
People are such liars. You're not going to get most people here to concede.
