I've never played DSIs this guy cool lorewise?
>>719850829He dies in the first 5 minutes.
eh kills the monsters and doesnt afraid of anythign
>>719850829he gives you estus flask in tutorial area then dies
not really but he's the knightliest knight of them all
>>719851037>>719850885Wut, I thought he is the protag
>>719850885>>719851037Still cool tho>>719851091Protag steals his armor so he might also be
>>719851210Is the protag cool?
>>719851256That depends. Are you cool?
>>719851256ops pic is as deep as it goes. hes a blank slate silent protag
>>719851364Sound pretty cool
>>719850829He dies 5 minutes in. However, everyone and their mother uses the armor when it's obtained later in the game, so in a way, the character in the OP is (you).
>>719851531Name a better alternative in its weight class
>>719850829there's an old saying in my family"Thou who art undead art chosenin thine exodus from the undead asylummaketh pilgrimage to the land of ancient lordswhen thou ringeth the bell of awakening the fate of the undead thou shalt know"well now you know and I can die with hope in my heart
>>719851732Who are ancient lordsand undeadis it related to our world?
step aside
>>719850829nobut Ostrava, of Boletaria is
>>719852042This guy looks like he's a homosexual man. is he a homosexual man?
>>719851256Being able to facetank light hits is cool and that armor helps you do that so yes
>>719852064nope>Alva was once a knight who searched many lands for a cure for Saint Serreta's "sickness". Upon learning of his dedication to the saint, Zullie the Witch used all manner of tricks and deceit in an attempt to ruin Alva, but ultimately stood by his side.
>dies 5 minutes into the game>before dying tells you a half-lie because he was also lied too since he’s a pawn just like you’re about to become>his armor is alright>his sword sucks after early game>his shield is pretty good
>>719850829He's the literal Chosen Undead, and inheritor of the sacrificial bloodline that ends with Lothric.
I fought midir today with shira's help. She made the fight harder desu but I still won
>>719852492Is Lothric cool?
>>719852706He’s disabled and rides around on his big brother and just caused trouble because his brother and him wanna end it all.
>>719851091So did he! He passes the mantle onto you when you find him slumped against a wall, dying.
>>719850829it's another one that had a cool thing and then fromsoft cut it but left him on all promo stuff. Happened with like every fucking one of their games.
>>719851629A better question is why use medium armor at all? Light armor lets you fast roll with lower equip loads while higher equip loads have giants for general use and Havel's for magic resistance. There is also stone for level SL1 players aiming to cheese The Four Kings.
>>719850829Dies like a cuck
>>719853349because that's what the game is made around and fast rolling ruined the series
anyone playing dark souls lately. i've been playing ng+ in 3 with all the weapons. its comfy.
>>719853349It has alright negation and poise while also having access to medium load with low endurance. Yes the negation isn’t nearly as good as the heavy sets, but the elite knight set kinda gets outclassed by other medium sets after O&S anyway. Even before then if you wanna spend a thousands on Domhnall.
>>719850829What drives him?Is it a sense of duty?brainless following of orders?something else?
>>719852261>Elite Knight>alrightEK is in the running for one of the best medium-medium heavy sets
>>719852261a half what?
>>719851256Its a fucking silent protagonist, how cool can they be?
>>719853978Silver Knight is betterOrnstein’s is betterFavor armor is betterBrass set is betterArtorias set is better
>>719854157most of these mark you as a total weeniearmor's all about fashion, baby
>>719854237You’re not wrong but the point still stands. Actually, I’m willing to bet if Oscar was wearing any of those sets, he’d have beaten the asylum demon. JUST SAYING!
>>719854089Silence is cool
>>719851256Bad ending absolutely notGood ending yes very
>>719852064He's like one of the few in the verse that gets laid and even has a kid
>>719855537he had a kid? i thought he just fell in love with the witch
Wasn’t that story about twisted irony or somethingLike she wanted to stop him at first, but she eventually supported his cause and loved him which turned out to be mutual and by extension, stopped him.
>>719854547>bad ending>good ending
>>719855628Karla in DS3 is their kid. You get Alva's amor set just outside Karla's cell
>>719855719i think so yeah he was trying to save this sick princess but the witch was being all tsundere fucking with him but eventually supported him but he failed his quest and shacked up with the witch
>>719852492I don't think there's a blood relation.
>>719852242>>719855537If he's not a homosexual man, then why does he look like one?
>>719856987What does he look like under the helm?
>>719853639Holy fucking trvth pyromancy
>>719857084If it was pulled off would he die?
>>719851256John Dark Souls kills everything in his ways inlcuding the old gods that shaped the world.He fights off the Abyss threatening to fuck up the world but some other bum gets the credit for it and in the end nobody remembers John Dark Souls
>>719857296It would be extremely painful
>>719856129Where else would Lothric's sacrificial bloodline come from?
>>719852064canonically smashes a goth witch
>>719859834he's gwyn's descendant, his mother is gwynevere
>>719859926>>719856987
>>719857731Really wish his sword wasn't absolute shit.
>>719850829Souls games are the equivalent of yearly sportsball games for nerds.
>>719852042
dark souls man is pretty cool. eh rolls and doesn't afraid of anything.
>>719850829You're not missing much. It's jankier than an eastern european RPG.
>>719860148Was it?I wouldn't know as I always a battle toothpick.
>>719863492It has comparable stats to a Divine Longsword but can only upgrade five times as opposed to ten, so it's an okay weapon if you want to do Catacombs really early but otherwise it's junk.
>>719860606humanoid skins on the bird are retarded
>>719854157SK set looks stupid with the reoccurring thin helmet designs Fromsoftware is fond of. Ornsteins set can’t be upgraded period. The Favor set looks ugly. The armor you get from the Darkmoon chick is cool but you gotta either attack her outright or cause Anor Londo to go dark. Artorias Set is alright when upgraded and aesthetically, but the leggings are too skinny. Honestly the best sets are ones that go for simplicity and manage weight/upgrade paths. Heavy Armor I’m not sure I only ever really liked Tarkus’ set and the Steel set and last time I played DaS1 I was medium rolling with just two of each piece in the armor slots.
