You need to kill the nearby skeleton wearing a funny hat to make it break

It destroys itself when it runs into a wall, i think, but I didnt understand what I did to make it happen

i think it just slowly destroys itself each time it hits a wall. i went away and came back later and it was dead

it will destroy itself the next time it hits the wall after the skeleton with the funny hat is dead. i think there's one hatted skeleton for each boulder rolling around in the catacombs.

I didn't mind Yhorm being easy because it was a great capstone to Siegward's questline and the experience was awesome as it was, but I wish Oceiros had more to him because there's not really a lot to digest or make the fight more meaningful or awesome other than that he talks.

Fun fact if you mess up and let Siegward die in that fight you don't get a second chance at finishing it properly, and dude's just dead when you next try the fight.

I've never felt worse about taking too long to kill a boss. Trust me Onionbro, NG+ I'll do it properly. You'll get to see your duty through.

it's still kind of a bummer that the early ones are over so quick, but its so easy to make things more difficult for yourself in these games, so i just do that

Man, the last four bosses of Nameless King/King of Storms, Dragonslayer Armour, Prince Lorian, Older Prince/Prince Lothric, Younger Prince and Soul of Cinder might be my four favourite boss fights, and all in a row to boot.

The people saying this game drops off after Sulyvhan are insanely insane.
