He had a purpose and believed in the firelinking psyop and still went hollow because he fell down and sprained his ankle? How do people take this seriously?
>>737614142He got hammered through a roof by the asylum demon
>>737614142Its a fucking video game first, theatrical story second. Go read a book or something.
>>737614208He could have fallen into a lava pit and still should have respawned
>>737614142community won't like this take but dark souls takes place the same exact time as demon's souls, meaning, no one there had been familiar with demons or how to fight them except for witch-tiers entities like quelana, maiden in black, monumentals, shit like that. So, when the demons showed up normie-tiers like oscar, crestfallen, siegmeyer, etc. they were basically thrust into some kind of bullshit japanese silent hill scenario where they get raped by demons and can't do shit except go insane with cosmic alzheimers. Basically all miyazakiverse stuff is the same, you had turbo normies, "elites", richfags, and machine elves and then the fucked up stuff just showed up and made everyone more of what they were already, so shitty people became demons and good people became lorefags
>>737614142He believed in it but also realized he is too much of a shitter to make it
>>737614142>>737614315>Plan was to find the Chosen Undead at the Northern Assylum>Get there>It's completely abandoned except for stray demons>All the undead have hollowed out>Except for one guy who listens to himTalking to the CU is the only thing he had left and having fulfilled his purpose there was nothing to keep him going after that.
>>737614142>>737615518Also in the original draft he actually did leave the assylum with you and had his own subplot right up to the end of the game, but it was deemed too shit to implement so it got cut.
>>737614315Do you even play the game or are you just fucking LARPing. Permanently dying was never the issue. He goes hollow. Crazy. It shows you this if you go back and he attacks you.
>>737614142This >>737615592His death on the retail game makes no sense, how come he become a hollow while dying with hope(???)There's still some files with unused cutscenes and dialogues of him in firelink, he was supposed to have a bigger role but since the game had to be pushed out of the door unfinished they didn't had time to make it good.
