games

i think soul of cinder is cooler

maybe of they made his moveset better

Well Sulyvahn went out a little too easy for how integral he was to the plot

lkke gave him multiple clones or something

and a more interesting moveset

also the deacons of the deep are actually bishops

I assume the clone thing was added later down the line

which is a rank much higher

A bit too many bishops

the clone thing is really cool

because it shows his next ayyackt

and sulyvhan is more of a pope than a pontif in japanese but

pontiff sounds cooler

I think he would’ve been good as a secret boss like gwyndolin was

Since they both end up serving as the puppet masters of the plot, they wouldn’t want themselves in the line of fire

its weird how he's guarding anor londo at all

I don't think he particulat cares about aldrich

he just used him to usurp the gods

If Aldrich was just a tool for him why is he in front of him

yes

DS3 is a bit wonky with the lore in general

also weird how you're supposed to beat him before

his two strongest eyes

or dancer atleast

i think it'd have better buildup if he was after dancer and vordt maybe even Aldrich

Put him in place of dragonslayer armor?

that's a lot of hype for one man though

I'm not even sure why he cares about stopping the unkindled

honestly it shouldn't effect him

He just wants power

yet he is one of the biggest hinderers of progress

And he pretty much succeeded at every goal he had set

blocking both exits of lothric castle

watching them

He believes in the deep doesn’t he?

uh

im not sure

I think he was an archbishop?

yeah i think he was

that's the lore behind his second sword

He really went everywhere, except farron

born in the painting too

Do carthus and farron have any confirmed connections to other parts of the world

farron was built on carthus

The running theory is that the abyss watchers destroyed carthus, which makes enough sense

but no it's unreleated to everything

They built a swamp over a desert?

uh

yes

i mean the road of sacrafices is built over farron itself

I’ve been meaning to ask, how do you feel about ornstein and smough

You know, not being dead

dumb but ornsteins storh is cool

smough is alibe though?

He died to Aldrich

In lore

o

It’s meant to be poetic, cannibal being cannibalized

I blame DS2 for the ornstein part

aldrich ate too much

But the entire first game feels decanonized

something something events repeat

I think that is true, Aldrich was still recovering strength after consuming gwyndolin

So you fight a somewhat weaker version of him

nito smough gwyndolin

what else

Nito is speculation

All he did was pull a scythe out of his brain

sure but its good speculation

he has a cut animation

Nito has no fucking lore

of nitos stab ability

stab ground snd and red bladew

Possibly because his lore wasn’t decided upon yet

his weapon too is nitos

It’s a bit different

staff sword

It’s a full on scythe while I think nito‘s was part of his arm

well

it's a sword spear staff kinda
