the ending boss was pretty fun and a good example of phase changes done in an interesting way, until he does his second health bar and just goes banzai, that was stupid. but prior to that, i thought it was cool how they tried to implement all of the different play styles into an encounter. also, for the ending, i figured out like 75% of the usurpation ending on my own before finding the rest of it on fextralife, so by that point i figured what the hell, might as well do that. i hit all the steps, got married, etc. and of course the guiding NPC at the end of the process is like "when the time comes you'll know what to do". when i had finished the final boss, my options were to "link the fire" or "summon the fire keeper" with no real third option to take the fire for my own hollowed rear end. i summoned the fire keeper because that was the obvious not-linking-the-fire, but of course that got me a different ending. what am i supposed to do to get the usurpation ending? i take it i shouldn't have given the firekeeper the eyes from the bizarro firelink shrine in the untended graves nor summoned her after the final boss, but what was i supposed to click on to actually get the hollow ending? was i supposed to just walk out of the arena?

^For whatever reason the fire still says "Link the Fire" to pick the third ending. A different cutscene plays though.

You were supposed to use the link the fire prompt. This labelling is unforgivably dumb. Summoning the Fire Keeper is a more satisfying ending though, imo, so it worked out in your favour.

turtlecrunch posted:^For whatever reason the fire still says "Link the Fire" to pick the third ending. A different cutscene plays though. this fuckin' game. NPC quest triggers will break if you breath too quickly while thinking about an NPC, and when you do try to set all the pins up, the best instruction you get is "you'll know what to do". no yuria of londor, i am clearly too dumb to know what to do. if you don't spell it out for me, i will assume that what is literally written on the button prompt (link the fire) is what will actually happen, because that is true for every other scripted interaction in the game. edit: it'd be like if there was a button prompt in front of a closed door that said (A: open door) and when you clicked on it instead of opening the door, your character warped to the beginning of the level and their current health was set to 1 and your estus flask count was set to 0 and all of your bonfires were reset to locked.

Robo Reagan posted:"Princess ahead but be weary of trap" in a certain zone that's a throwback has gotten me lots of upvotes. My "Moon ahead, therefore Praise the trap!" message saved my life during the Aldritch fight, and I find that rather fitting. I'm a sucker for messages, and rate nearly every one I see. I also like to leave cheeky ones whenever DS references itself, but none of them have garnered nearly as much attention as "could this be a hole?, Praise the thrust!" in front of a corpse bent over a railing. DS players are weird.

turtlecrunch posted:Someone asked One comment, I don't know that the End of the Fire ending leads to an Age of Dark. Dark is attributed to the disparity brought on by the flame. The firekeeper also goes out of her way to describe the coming dark as being "different to what is seen when stripped of vision." It's a metaphysical dark, so maybe she's just saying "you won't like bump into every table ever," but it's possible that the reason Kaathe changed its mind about just letting the fire die is because they realized no flame means no disparity means no darkness.

Most concepts in Souls are like that, having both a physical and a metaphoric form. She does say it's different to what is seen when stripped of vision (i.e. a pure sort of darkness), because in the same phrase she goes on to mention those tiny flames in the distance. And I think that's a good conclusion, that Kaathe realized there is no true Age of Dark without also having Fire, and the matter would just go on and on forever.

Man, you can't roll through the dancer's grab attack? You just have to actually be physically far away from her when she does it? Probably died to it at least 10 times now.

Bass Bottles posted:Man, you can't roll through the dancer's grab attack? You just have to actually be physically far away from her when she does it? That's how most grab attacks with most souls bosses have worked, which is why grab attacks are so nasty. Hell, in fighting games the whole point of grabs is they go through blocks In DS2 it was the worst because even if you got physically far away from it, it'd still grab you. The hitboxes on grabs were really huge and hosed up and could teleport you 20 feet. In DS3 at least it feels way more fair, if you got hit you got hit, if you didn't you didn't, but yeah, you just need to GTFO if you see or sense a grab coming.

Or was there another of those guys... I think it was a different guy but I can't remember.

Bass Bottles posted:Man, you can't roll through the dancer's grab attack? You just have to actually be physically far away from her when she does it? her grab is pretty janky and it seems like the hitbox for it is much larger than her animation would indicate. i could never avoid it by rolling towards her or to her side because she steps forward and grabs in an arc when she does the grab. the only way i could avoid it was to roll backwards 2x as soon as you see her start to do kind of a snake slither dance move. it's the only tell i recognized that the grab was coming; she also doesn't do anything with her sword arm when she goes for the grab. it's basically a one-hit kill "try the fight again " move unless you've been stacking health like crazy and you're embered and you're also at full health when she grabs you. if you have a phantom with you and they get grabbed you're pretty much guaranteed that they are dead.

And make sure you get the hairy chest. Feels like he should use a rapier or an estoc, maybe the acid (rain) pyromancy. Oh god I've thought about this too much.
