>>172228593
It's a decent, not amazing, it would have been much better if Gael wasnt dlc only but ALSO in the base game and we accompanied him through the whole game with him helping us with bosses, and giving us stuff while looking for something (like solaire), he never mentions it, just says he is in look of something then the 1st dlc comes out and we find out what it is, the dark soul of man.

now THAT would be hype as fuck.

It's both good and bad. Unlike in DaS1, you can more readily restore spell uses, and unlike in DaS2 it isn't trivialized by farmable consumables that ensure that you don't even need to go back to a bonfire if you don't want to. It's more flexible in that you can cast however many you want as long as your FP holds out, instead of being restricted to a certain number of casts of CSS or CMW and then having to waste a consumable while having several casts of CHSM still ready.

The execution is not so good in that the game limits your total amount of Estus (so unless you're a healslut you're not getting as much healing), which kind of breaks invasions too.

Would you ever resurrect [From Software’s long-dormant first-person franchise] King's Field or has the Souls series rendered it superfluous?
>I feel that King's Field and Dark Souls are two separate entities. For starters, yes, the perspective is different, but also they are guided by differing core game design concepts. As for a revival of King's Field, that’s a very difficult question. This is because King's Field is the brainchild of From's former president [Naotoshi Jin], and if I or anyone else were to attempt a revival of the series, we would run the risk of creating a pale imitation. On a personal level, the first King's Field was one of my favorite games when I was just a gamer myself, and I believe there would be fascinating ways to bring it back, but all of these ideas would be contingent on Jin serving as director.

Natoshi Jin was fired in 2015.


There is. No. King's. Field. Remake. Stop spreading false rumors. If you want a king's field remake, go spam bandai namco's twitter and community reps until they pass the message along to From.

Technically you can make your own Blessed Mail Breaker, it's shit for anything that isn't off-handing for regen though. You can also outright kill Sirris once she shows up in Firelink and get her set and talisman that way.

The major things that get locked out are Silvercat and DSA. Otherwise, Creighton's set and Hodrick's set are meh, and Sunset Shield isn't even that good anyways.

He stepped down as president (replaced by miyazaki) and was removed as an employee. As of 2014 he was an "advisor" but he wasn't credit on DS3 in any capacity. If he's not fired, he's being kept in limbo until he quits.

>>172229912
Two sets of armor, Creighton's and Hodrick's. Again, you can just kill Sirris once she gets pissed, and pillage her corpse for her talisman and then buy her set from Handmaid.

Sunset Shield appears at Firelink after you kill Hodrick. It's a meh shield, only good for fashion.

Stormbringer is on the level of the God Hand, maybe even beyond it. Plus he can ask for the assistance of every elemental under the sun and even Arioch if he thinks he wants to wrap it up quick.

Possibly but don't forget that Schierke's magic as a conduit of the elemental forces. Elric can summon the elemetal powers directly. And Stormbringer is far more powerful than even the Lords of the Higher Worlds. when it's fully unleashed.

Base Guts > Base Elric.

Powered up Elric with assistance> Powered up Guts with assistance.

Get him to chase you outside, he'll follow you quite a distance and will usually go for a running attack and then he'll try to walk back into the building where you fight him. Keep him away from the building and he won't do shit.

So what exactly is the deal with this Silver Knight NPC? Anons were saying he has the new hammer, but wears the plain Silver Knight set?

But I remember seeing item info pics of a set that looked like a unique Silver Knight Captain. Please for the love of Christ tell me they didn't cut it...

Just from the one pic I saw I could already tell it was top tier fashion.

Does the order in which you kill the beetle demons change what the prince is like?

That's the UGS bread and butter play.

Swing #1, bait and stall on #2, quick follow #1, easy 800+ damage combo on anyone.

Is it safe to go to Smouldering Lake before killing the Deacons of the Deep without upsetting Anri's quest line? Like, can I go to Smouldering Lake, get what I need, then go back and kill Deacons and Anri will appear in the Catacombs as long as I don't kill Wolnir?

As a shitter who enjoys DaS2 the most, I'm happy with the closure of the series.

>>172231840
On your side yes but if you're asking if you can be a cheating shit and use buffs without them showing up on other people's screens then no.

>>172231784
I mean besides CE

>>172231893

would guts be guts without his canon arm and dragonslayer?

still, i'd put my money on Guts. Elric has a lot of power, but Guts has bean similar ilk before.

literally just page through the infusion screen and look at which one does the most damage

Splitleaf Halberd deflects arrows, bolts, and throwing knives when you're spinning it. Try it out!

Is it a bad idea for me to be using Valorheart for the dlc? I don't know how much stamina the enemies and bosses in the dlc will consume, if I get guard broken they get a free counter hit etc.
It's a very fun weapon in the arena but I haven't used it that much in pve.

So Fillianore is a corpse on the side meant to seal the Pygmies, did they even know that? Heck how did Gael even get there before you do when she's still sleeping.

>>172232346
Really needs to take a dump on Velka by having her show up as a corpse killed by random Hollows with a soul/items that still says nothing important about her.

>>172231897

10/10 if that is true.

>>172232256
>It's nigh impossible to lose
Yea because you're talking about 2 extremely slow weapons which can be avoided on reaction forever. "Outspacing" in this situation involves backpedalling forever and hoping the other guy does something moronic and gives you a free whiff punish, because you literally can't afford to swing.

>Is it a bad idea for me to be using Valorheart for the dlc?
No. Why would it be?

>>172232616

It is very true. I tested it on the crossbow/thief hollows in the Dragon Barracks. The crossbow dudes in that area use exploding bolts, too, so this means any type of ammunition can be deflected.

What will we do when that happens? the real world is gone

It feels like you take less damage and deal more against multiple phantoms right now.

>>172232586
It will be a challenge, but a fun one. Going through the base game with that weapon was fun as fuck. Fun moveset, but weak damage so every boss got more challenging.

I'm fairly certain that the painting wouldn't rot because of what the painter girl mentions. That someone who is of fire should not make a painting, and Ariandel was of fire, which was why the painting "burned out" essentially. Just my way of looking at it.

After all, the scrap of painting Gael hands us looks burnt, not rotting.

What's the lore behind this dlc?

That pygmies were cucks of Gwynn?

Why the fuck do ringed knights have dragon weapons?

Why are there no silver knights in the Ringed City if they're all friends?

Why must every pivotal character like Velka, Kaathe and Frampt, or the Furtive pygmy be fucking dead or dissappeared?

Because its been literally thousands of years since the first kindling and gods dont live that long very well without their main power source. Why do you think theyd survive to this point? Why would they want to meet you?
This game is like Eva Genesis at this point. A big fuck you to people who wont stop asking stupid shit and cant accept that things just wont go answered, because ultimately they arent important or pivotal. This game wasnt meant to revolve around gods, it was meant to revolve around their downfall, and the downfall of everything. This game doesnt get a happy ending. It gets an end.

>>172232980

The MLGS has been in these games 'for no reason' all along, though. Ludwig just continued the reference.

If you played the game you would see that Ludwig is not a literal who, but is one of the more important characters in the lore and you can also see that he wielded the MLGS so badass that the church made shitty Chinese replicas of it to cosplay as him.
