"Curse-Rotted Greatwood"

Dark Souls 3 fanart from 2022. Found this boss to be very cool even if the fight itself wasn't the best.

[sadlazzle]

idk man i think it’s been a very hot minute since ive played a souls game n i am jst. so lost and confused here

[slightly-gay-pogohammer]

I haven't played less of p, but can keep asking questions!

Do you have any propaganda for playing the game?

hi welcome to the lies of p propaganda

literally a mix of bloodborne and american mcgee's alice when it comes to aesthetic, vibes, themes and battle systems. if you liked either of them and are upset that bloodborne won't get a port and alice won't get a sequel this is a good alternative

the devs confirmed a sequel and a dlc btw. and they're indie so they shouldn't have many problems

INCREDIBLE soundtrack, and here's some examples of my favorites because i need to share quixotic, memory of beach, shattered memories, hall of fame and arche abbey everywhere

the boss fights are difficult, but most of them are very fair and easy to learn the patterns of. while some are clearly fodder... anyone who played a soulsborne game know that every now and then you have to deal with a curse-rotted greatwood or a witch of hemwick if it means you can have a pontiff sulyvan or a lady maria in return!! if you don't mind spoilers i highly recommend checking out the battles with the king of puppets or with champion victor

tackles themes of overcoming grief, different ways to deal with it, rebirth, what it means to be human, being your own person and honestly and lies, with the latter especially being the most prominent one and heavily implying that even if honesty is good, sometimes a lie is a much better option for everyone

INCREDIBLE visuals hello

i need to talk about how good the monsters design is because body and mechanical horror fans rise UP

you can actually mix-n-match every single weapons you can find around, not including very overpowered boss weapons, and you can have a cannon arm?? like yes it's far from being the fastest weapon but consider: i can either hit and dash or i can make the boss explode

Your Choices Matter you know when a game promises you that they don't. well they do they DOOO literally every single choice starting with your very first one matter HEAVILY in the end

i can't stress enough how good the characters are, they're all full of life and energy and Love. you get a puppet in love, a beautiful charismatic old woman, a spunky young mechanic, whatever the fuck venigni my dad venigni has going on, an actually pretty fun version of the cricket and even pinocchio, who like most soulsborne seems to have little to no personality, is way more human from the get-go, with a lot of characters noting that he's so easily annoyed by their bigger-than-life personality and dramatique

this game made me cry SO many times between the music the lore and the incredible writing and voice acting. it's weird to say i didn't expect that much from it, like when the first trailer arrived we all went haha bishounen pinocchio bloodborne game, but the various npcs and even some bosses feel so human that inevitably seeing them going through situation destroyed me fr fr

but seriously the small details fuck me up so bad. the fact that pinocchio starts by making heavy mechanical noises whenever he moves and occasionally twitches and makes no noise when he attacks and the more "good ending" choices you make the less mechanical noises he makes and the more he occasionally grunts whenever he's hit is so nice?? they literally change every single one of his animation if you aim for that ending and it's so!!!!! aaaa

and also you can play fashionsouls the clothes have no effect other than being fancy so you can literally wear whatever the fuck you want and i, personally, find it very fun. big fan of the workshop master clothes btw that was my main until i unlocked the white clothes

i could go on but it would fall in spoilers territory fnasdmg point is. play lies of p

[peppersfromhell]

curse rotted greatwood came on

[ember-amber]

One thing I generally find annoying about most dark souls mods is the insistence they have that non-npc humanoid bosses are the absolute best thing to put in any place ever.

Both convergence mods, which I like a lot, do this. You will not fight gideon, you will fight a weird crucible knight; you will not fight High Lord Wolnir, he will be one of those vikings guys from the dlc; Curse Rotted Greatwood? no you will fight the High Druid(that is a really good fight to be honest).

Now I'm hearing they will be replacing the Leda npc fight with something else and like....why?? This is a good fight, actually the best npc fight they ever made in terms of story and themes, the dialogue is great and it's not particularly hard but its still fun. What are you gonna replace it with? Leda's armor stretched over a zamor knight with some other moves?

From Software may not have made most gimmick bosses that good, but don't replace them with something less interesting. I know you do it because humanoid movesets can be mixed and matched, and I respect that, but at the end of the day I'm still just fighting a guy with a sword.

It's why I love Archthrones, specially the new Cathedral of the Deep.

Saint Klimt is just a godskin apostle with a one reborn as it's second face, no mixed movesets, but the way they changed the contexts of these two makes them feel like a fresh fight.

And Aldrich? I don't fucking know what Aldrich is but his fight is so pretty and atmospheric. It includes the deacons of the deep bit perfectly, as if this would have been the fight had you arrived before he left to vore Gwyndolin.

Just...you can make a fight that is meaninful and cool without it being another humanoid boss, and it's not that important that you trick me into thinking this isn't a reused moveset by mixing it, just use it gracefully and don't put in 400 dragonslayer armors in there like Cinders does.

Finally was able to beat the Nameless King in DS3. Had a friend over who wanted to see what Dark Souls was like, so maybe having an audience helped me lol Now I'm gonna do the 2 NG+ playthroughs I need for the plat. Already up to beating the Curse-rotted Greatwood again :P
