Darkness sucks ass, it makes life terrible for everyone. Plus, Kaathe's strategies are retarded and just result in people getting eaten by the Abyss. Not productive at all. Frampt is a dick, but at least civilization is possible in fire. Frampt > Kaathe.

>>
>>383732385
Neither are 'right'. Both options they are pushing towards have pros and cons. On the one hand the age of fire has been unnaturally extended, and as we learn in DS3 Gwyn is the source of the darksign and is basically responsible for all the shit that goes down with hollowing. The age of fire has to come to an end eventually, all one can do is prolong the inevitable. The dark on the other hand is also pretty fucked, and while it is the next step it isn't all roses like some of the NPCs insist. Still, maybe the darkness won't be all that bad, if everything just fades away to nothingness

The Primordial Serpents are Jews. They're lying to you. Kaath and Frampt are the same organism in fact, two heads on the same Hydra.

Link the fire and you burn your soul. You will die, and another will need to take your place, but wait. All the Gods are finally dead by your hand. What will come of the world when you're gone? You've ensured that the only powerful entities are now the serpents. Choose the dark end? The hydra reveals itself, the Gods are all dead, the fire is gone, and now the world descends into an era of chaos, again with only the serpents being all powerful.

In the era of the Dragons, the world was perfect. All was in order. The Dragons were a perfect power structure and there was stability.
The Primordial Serpents instigated the Lords into fighting the Dragons and begin the era of fire, which the serpents knew was doomed to fail.

Its literally: Fight for nothing and get Jewed: The Game

They're not actually the same being, although they are symbolically in a sense. They want different things, but in the end the cycle is going to continue, and nothing can stop the age of fire ending. Thus while they are different beings, the outcome from whatever you choose doesn't really matter, hence they are often represented as two sides of the same coin.

>>383733550
While Gwyn is a dick, I don't think that he was responsible for hollowing. The Darksign is what's left of Gwyn's attempt at stopping people from becoming Undead, and therefore hollowing. DaS3 makes it abundantly clear that the Darksign = fire's fading power. It shows up when something made by, or sustained by Fire, breaks down. So when Gwyn sealed humanity at the dawn of time, the Darksign is emblematic of this seal losing its' strength, which should be intuitive as the Darksign only happens when the flames fade, as opposed to when they're going strong. The Darksign appearing on you makes you incapable of dying for real, which implies that the seal itself was originally meant to force people to die in the first place. People aren't meant to die of old age, they're meant to be immortal like Gwyn and his buddies were. Nito had to actively expend his power to force people to die, and this is because it was going against the natural order.

Hollowing is just a side effect of the flames fading. The disparity between life and death breaks down as fire, which props up all disparity, breaks down, which means that things that die don't really die anymore.

While suppressing immortality to limit man's powerlevel is certainly a major dick move, he didn't cause hollowing. Unless, of course, you're one of those people who thinks that immortality is a curse, in which case Gwyn did humanity a favor.
>>
Kaathe, the age of fire was never meant to be extended. It was supposed to be the age of ancients, the age of fire then the age of dark (man).
>>
>>383734151
Yes, yes, keep trying to snuff out those flames. The dark is good for you, you won't become a hollow or worse, yes, good...
>>
>>383734120
Hmmm you definitely interpreted events in the game very differently from me. I thought that the darksign is like a ring of fire preventing the spread of humanity. The dark soul is obviously (to my eyes) the shadow cast by the light emitted from the lord souls (which are represented as fire). The dark sign is thus a barrier that stops the shadow from falling across the world, and separates the dark and stops it being unified (which Gael seeks to do in the end).

I don't think the darkling was what stopped people hollowing, I think it was what caused hollowing by stopping the natural progression into the age of dark following the light. Where did you get the impression Nito forced people to die? I'm not saying you are wrong, Im just curious.

Why don't you rise in-place (like skeletons do)?
Why do you respawn at the bonfire? It makes me think that you're somehow chained to fire, rather than simply being unable to die
Also, why doesn't the end of fire ending result in an age of grey?
>>
>>383734120
>>383734706
Just to be clear, I guess I disagree that the darksign is meant to be a failure of the original seal, rather it is just the remains of the seal (hence the ring of fire is very low). It has been corrupted and perverted, but it still does what it was intended to do, which is to keep humans in their place

>>383735042
There are some hints that there will be a new age of fire. characters say that flames will eventually return to shadow. But its not clear when. It probably has something to do when the painted world of ash comes to an end, it will all begin again.

There are several indications that the Darksign means a broken seal of fire:
>In DaS3, the Sun turns into a darksign when the flames get on their last breath. Since DaS1 we've known that the Sun is a construct powered by Fire, that's why it goes out when you kill Gwynevere. DaS3 just makes it more explicit. Construct of Fire -> broken/failed/corrupted -> darksign.

>In DaS3, the Ringed Knight armor states that it was sealed by Fire to hold back the Abyss in it. However, the armor still retains it's own free will (something made explicit in it's description), something that's characteristic of Abyss-possessed objects. Were the seal still working properly one would expect this not to be the case. Furthermore, just by looking at the thing, you can see the Abyss proudly displayed on the chestpiece, the seal of flame has been pushed back to the perimeter by the power of Darkness. Seal of fire -> broken/failed/corrupted -> darksign

As for Nito, maintaining Death took effort on his part, as given by:
http://darksouls.wikidot.com/lord-soul
>The power of his soul is so great that it satiates the Lordvessel, despite the fact that much of its energy has already been offered to death.
And before you claim that Undeath was only a thing AFTER Gwyn linked the flame in the first place (which would implicate Gwyn in the creation of the Undead), know that there were Undead that existed in Anor Londo's heyday, before Gwyn ever linked the First Flame:
http://darksouls.wikidot.com/purple-coward-s-crystal
Which states that Undead fights were a popular spectator sport among the Gods. This leads us to conclude that the Undead showing up were not a machination of Gwyn as he linked the flame, but that his linking of the flame was a response to their sudden appearance.

These things hint strongly at the idea that the God's seal on mankind was to force them to stay mortal. When the seal fades alongside fire, it stops working properly and humans go Undead.

>>383734851
Skellies only rise in-place because Necromancers cast magic that force them to revive in place. You respawn at the Bonfire because bonfires are what your character identifies as "home."
http://darksouls.wikidot.com/homeward
In "theory," an Undead would spawn back wherever you call home. But an Undead has no home, save the bonfire.

Ending the fire doesn't result in a new age of grey because disparity isn't a pandora's box that you can close. Once the world is defined by pairs of "THING" and "NOT THING," the death of "THING" results in the dominance of "NOT THING," which is still disparity. Hence an age of dark, not grey.

>So, who's actually right, Frampt, or Kaathe?

>>
>>383735707
Either way, it doesn't exist when the flames start fading. Gwyndolin cast his spell -- and the distinction between illusions, golems, and constructs in Souls is VERY fuzzy -- because the normal Sun stopped working properly in Anor Londo after the Gods skipped town and the fires started going out. It doesn't function normally when the flames start fading.
>>
>>383735536
I agree it is broken, in that it is corrupted, I just disagree on its original purpose. I think Gwyn put it there to restrain humanity aka the abyss

Were the undead in Anor Londo already hollowing? I forget, but if not then it might still be that Gwyn's linking was part of the problem for the undead.

In any case you make good points I need to think more about it
>>
>>383735723
The abyss is the shadow that was meant to naturally come after the fire. The curse only occurs because of the unnatural extension of the flame, by Gwyn for example doing exactly what your image shows

>>383735431
Holy shit are you litterally retarded? The curse happens because the fire was going out not because it was prolonged

I don't think you'd respawn at your home without the darksign
I think you'd be completely unable to die

>Ending the fire doesn't result in a new age of grey because disparity isn't a pandora's box that you can close. Once the world is defined by pairs of "THING" and "NOT THING," the death of "THING" results in the dominance of "NOT THING," which is still disparity. Hence an age of dark, not grey.
fair enough
>>
>>383736009
The curse existed before Gwyn ever linked the flame. There were Undead gladiator matches in the original Age of Fire.
>>
>>383736043
A bit of an overreaction maybe?
The point is that the fire was fading and so the darksign was made to prolong it (that poster is saying, I'm not necessarily agreeing, but it is at least plausible). Gwyn was using undead and the darklsign to keep the flame kindled for as long as possible. If not for him there wouldn't be all this hollowing.

>>383736048
The corpse on Shira's weapon has horns and shit, anon, it's clearly not a normal man, or even a normal undead. People who got fucked up by mutations do what they want, the rules don't apply to them.

The curse was created with the ringed city, not when he first linked the flame. Linking the flame had nothing to do with this, it happened way later.

I still think that the biggest issue of all this is not the fact that "muh cycles"(the biggest asspull after parallel universes or time travels), but the thing that we actually didn´t get the real closure everyone wanted.

I mean the whole real question about "what is the dark souls" etc. was only answered in the last dlc and the real ending of dark souls is...that this world is shit, we will now go into the painting and make another world.

While I think Miyazaki really had a vague idea about this triology, I guess the reason that namco fucked from over, because of das2. He wanted to finish this asap.

Either he wanted to make continous stuff like he did in 1 and 3, or he wanted to make 3 new kingdoms each of them telling you the whole story.

DaS1 -> Introduction
DaS2 -> what is the curse
DaS3 -> what is the dark souls and the flame?
>>
>>383735871
Humanity is not the Abyss. The two concepts are distinct. The Abyss is wild, chaotic, mutated Humanity. It isn't "normal" humanity, it's what happens when your normally-docile humanity chimps out and fucks your shit up, which it normally doesn't do. In fact, literally the sole reason the Deep even was introduced, as a concept, was to make this distinction explicit.

As for New Londo, they say that it was once an Undead City, but whether it became a haven for the Undead before or after Gwyn linked the fire is never stated. While the Undead certainly existed during Gwyn's time, before he left for the Kiln, whether they had moved en masse into New Londo before he left is never said.
>>
>>383736404
The unnatural extension of the flame was not only the linking of the fire, but also the separation and segregation of the dark soul (shadow/abyss)

Abyss is what happens when humanity gets restless. Because of the unnatural age of fire. Humanity yearns to be united, and its separation via the darksign causes it to corrupt, leading to the shit in oolacile and stuff

Humanity doesn't spontaneously go wild, though. You have to force it. It's not like Manus' humanity went kaboom one day on it's own, Oolacile sorcerers had to first revive him from the dead, and then fuck with his soul first. You find Pus of Men everywhere in Lothric because Oceiros' sick experiments got loose, and the Pilgrim Butterflies are Londor fuckery. Those blacksmiths in TRC had Abyss samples like they were wielding the Abyss version of Chaos Embers, Oolacile probably learned their "drive humanity wild" techniques from them since they had missionaries there. Bottom line, it is in no way natural. You only ever see it show up as a result of men messing with their own souls through spellwork.

Abyssal humanity isn't rotted, quite the opposite, it's growing wildly out of control and ever-dynamic. Rotted humanity is stagnant, which is why it's associated with the Deep. If the Locusts are the product of abyssal humanity, they were not the product of rot.

As another poster says, it looks as though they are discovering the corpses of the snakes.

Let me try to be a little more clearer
>The Deep is associated with Rotten Humanity, Water, and Insects
>The Rot of Ariandel is associated with Rotten Humanity, Blood, and Flies (Bus/Insects)
>The Locusts are Insects/Bugs
>They live in a swamp = stagnate water
>They spend their days eating the dark souls of undeads

We do see Abyssal enemies in the Ringed City in the form of Gael and the Ringed Knights as well as in the base game in the form of the pus of man, both bear little resemble to the Locusts.

>Would you claim that the Chaos Flame is stagnant and not the all devouring force of consumption that it is, because Blighttown exists over Lost Izalith?

Its been a while, but did the Chaos flame ever threaten to spread beyond Izalith?

It was all part of Kaathe's master plan

Neither. Both. They, and everyone else in the story of Dark Souls are powerless. The series is a monument to existential despair.

>>383747363
So getting killed was part of Kaathe's plan?

He's gets quite a few things wrong and he plagiarized someone's bloodborne lore essay.

Not that bad, to be expected

>he plagiarized someone's bloodborne lore essay.
thats a dick move though, you got a source?
>>
>>383747509
None of his ideas are really original, they are simply popular/common theories that he repackages.

Now, if you want to see a real good lore video:

Don't the twin princes follow the angelic faith, which is basically a Londor ruse?

Why do Aussies love Dark Souls

Weren't the angels considered heretic? That's why you got that lady imprisoned in a cage.
Either way, There's still this urge and responsability over the princes, they raise them to be heroes who link the fire. Whoever they worship is not that important, they still what the old jew snek wants them to do. But we should also consider how the princes rebel against this shit and wait for the world to die. So basically, they're turning heretic.

Because they're used to living in a hostile hellscape

There was some sort of civil war that occurred in Lothric that was probably sparked when the princes refused their duty.
Also, Gertrude was (if I'm remembering right) the prince's half-sister.

>Perhaps that someone is you? Did you not arise from the Abyss, and did you not resist drowning in the Age of Fire?
Is this talking to the player? What does it mean by this? Especially that second part with drowning in the age of fire.

Its one of those weird item descriptions that feels a lot like dialogue.

I just 100 percent the game and it feels so good. Who else knows this feeling?

Dark Souls, 2, or 3? How was grinding for covenant items?
>>
Hard to tell but i find it extremely unlikely that Frampt is in the right, he lies to you telling you that liking the fire will undo the curse. The fact that a second game exists proves that Frampt is full of shit.

Dark Souls. The covenant item farming wasn't that hard since crow people dropped them like crazy. Already had a good stock of sunlight medals from summoning solaire a bunch of times and it taking 2 and a half playthroughs to finish.

Great work! Congratulations.

Didn't bother with DS2 and DS3 achievements because it required you to play quite a lot of online for certain magic/pyromancy/miracles and get all the gestures and rings.
