TheCzarsHussar Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 @BigBossBalrog Also while I love Old King Doran, he's kinda a mixed bag when you stop to think about it. On one hand he's a fucking badass demi-god who casually brushes aside your attacks (after proving yourself worthy) until he decides he feels like accepting your challenge then precedes to two shot your ass with his (false?) Northern Regalia. But all this begs the question, why doesn't the mythical founder of the kingdom actually go out and punt the demons himself? He's charged himself with protecting the kingdom yet spends all his time in the mausoleum guarding a fucking sword. You have a (lesser) Gwyn like figure who's even more useless then Gwyn.

I mean it's a pretty awesome sword...I prefer it's counterpart though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBossBalrog Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 I always had this little head canon he's guarding the sword so the False King can't forge the Northern Regalia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the lore of Demonbrandt where its supposedly more powerful the less demonic it's owner is. And the more our character levels up, the mote demonic we become so in theory it'd lose it's power over time. Edit: Despite what the crestfallen warrior says about our character becoming more powerful and demonic through gaining souls (and leveling) the sword is effected by character tendency.

TheCzarsHussar Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 @ColonelKillaBee @BigBossBalrog The newest version of the emulator is finally well optimized. I get an average of 30 fps throughout the game...had to restart as I lost all my saves though. Only had that tower prison left and then straight to Allant.

TheCzarsHussar Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 @BigBossBalrog @ColonelKillaBee @The Good Doctor Demon Souls has the fucking scariest areas of the series. I haven't finished it yet and I can only imagine how much worse (in a good way) it gets. World 3-1 is straight up Bloodborne Lovecraftian where you have to navigate a prison guarded and patroled by squid headed mages who are basically the forefathers of the brainsuckers. They even have the same magic that sticks you in place. The world ends with an interesting boss... Haven't gotten far in 3-2 but this place is legit fucking scary. @ColonelKillaBee It feels like what the Nightmare of Menis would look like if it was left unchecked forever. Plus you have fucking demons you can hardly see flying around the darkness (this place is very far up from the ground) who you can only really tell are there by the red eyes. Haven't reached it yet but there is even something massive that's all chained up and pulsing in the center. Kinda looks like an organ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCzarsHussar Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I am fully convinced that I am within a Nightmare (from Bloodborne). This nightmare merged with the physical world and is literally being anchored by this heart at the center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCzarsHussar Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 JESUS CHRIST I uh... reached the bottom. This place is nightmare fuel. The enemies down here actually make me uneasy, it reminds me of a childhood fear of this certain H.P. Lovecraft book cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCzarsHussar Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Sorry for the spam. This place is some of From's best work. Only place in the whole series to actually scare and startle me several times, not only with jumpscares but the environment too. 3-2 is just Anxiety Souls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCzarsHussar Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Old King Allant is dead first try, pretty fun boss fight but honestly if you don't parry Gwyn, he's the harder boss. I was a little annoyed at times because the game wouldn't pick up me hitting the circle button some times during this fight, only ever did it during this one.

TheCzarsHussar Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Also, officially beat Demon Souls. Damn good souls game for sure. Highlight of the game was the entirety of world 3, which was my favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBossBalrog Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Maiden Astrea is still my favorite "boss" You go in a swamp to murder a knight and his lover, who are innocent people trying to bring light to the abandoned and poorest people in the world, all the while she screams, cries, curses to God, and begs you to spare her love. And if you kill him first, she kills herself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's literally the filth and shit of the entire world. The boss itself is just the player going into a swamp to murder an innocent woman and her lover, but the dialog is absolutely chilling, (Another reason why I love that FROM writes first in English ) It's one of the most unique fights in the series.
