      The way I beat him (barely) is by rolling R1 his attacks until half way. Then when he has the ghost, he mirrors the ghost's attack, so you wait for ghost to make a stupid move and that's your chance to strike.

    Not only do the Cemetery of Ash and Untended Graves overlap, they are LITERALLY the same area, coordinate for coordinate. If you were to turn around at the start of Cemetery of Ash and jump up to the entrance (using hacks of course), you'd end up behind Oceiros. If you went back into the cemetery, it'll be Untended Graves. Going through the illusory wall into the area is what triggers the change from Cemetery to Graves. This is why Cemetery of Ash isn't connected to any other areas.

    About the Oscar like corpse:
    In Dark Souls 1, Oscar had an entire cut storyline where he was supposed to do the opposite of what you did. If you linked the fire, he'd call you a pawn of the gods. If you became the dark lord, he'd call you kaathe's servant. The untended graves with his corpse missing and the cemetery of ash with his corpse present is a subtle nod to the cut storyline.

    I like the idea of stars showing up at the last boss fight. Throughout the series it is really only emphasized that the sun and moon are the only heavenly bodies that matter to humanity's survival. Most times, when looking up form all points in the game, the anor londo, lothric castle, and even the sun is covering the sky, as if there is nothin else that matters. But here in the last twilight of the world, where the sun barely shines anymore, the stars appear, to come witness this last final battle between two nobodies, stuck at the end of of the world.

      It also somewhat lines up with what the firekeeper says during the end of fire ending, "one day tiny flames will dance along the darkness". Every night location in dark souls I can remember didn't have visible stars, but here in the end of the world, at the first flame's weakest and as the sun's light wanes, you can see stars. What are the odds it's a glimpse of the coming age of dark?

    Silver Knights leave corpses, Black Knights do not
    Silver Knights mimic Ornstien by using his two handed heavy attack
    Gael can be riposted, but only after a headshot from a throwing knife or arrow
    The Giant Archer uses the same voice lines as the Giant Blacksmith, just tone and pitch shifted back to it's more original voice
    Gargoyles with heads can be riposted, gargoyles with no heads can't
    The Murky Longstaff has a Murky Hand Scythe fastened to it
    Some enemies can be pushed back when you roll into them (Undead Villagers, Murk Men, Small Crabs)
    The scream of the Lycanthrope can be heard in Bloodborne
    Rotten Flies take double damage if they are flying
    There are numerous Berserk references: (Carthus Worm, Wheel Skeletons, Artorias' pose, Merc Armor and Watcher Armor)
    Gundyr is modeled off of King Doran from Demon's Souls; his armor even backs up this theory
    Ludleth has no legs
    Ludleth with dream of the time he linked the fire
    Ludleth, despite being on his throne, will warn the player and suggest they link the fire
    The Transposing Kiln is in the shape of the Dark Sign

    I can’t believe I’m still finding out new things about these games, this is really impressive. A few other weird things I’ve found: Many large bosses like Gael, Oceiros and I think Dancer can be riposted if headshot, Dancer also recoils if you block her long thrust attack with high enough stability, Lycanthropes can be parried, the camera automatically unlocks when Lothric finishes healing Lorian (really don’t understand why), you take no fall damage landing in the Dreg Heap swamp, and the Dragonslayer Armour in Ringed City has a unique shield charge move.

    • @LakeofMud
      @LakeofMud  4 роки тому +7

      Didn't know the Dragonslayer Armour thing! Also, I suspect anything to do with a boss unlocking the camera (like in Bloodborne with Gascoigne/Kos etc.) is usually because the boss "entity" has been switched-out with another one from below the map. In this case, presumably when Lothric is healing Lorian it is the Lorian-only model and it switches back to the one where they are together afterwards.
