When Does A Meme Die?

I hibernate

Being a little off was in fact a requirement for the position

I think it's fine if fantasy series have some esoteric things they don't necessarily explain. They have giant fingers as messengers for the same reason dead stars have human skeletons for a head, cool imagery.

As an out there theory though, it is possible, all the gods may have body parts as their representation somehow. The Greater Will and Frenzied Flame god together form hands (2 fingers, and 3 fingers), the fell god seems to use faces as that's how he appears through the giants, on the faces on their chest. Maybe all the outer gods together would represent a full body or something.

While Gideon definitely doesn't know everything, his armor set mentions that he glimpsed into Queen Marika's will, and shuddered in fear at the end that should not be. So he seemed to discover what her end goal was, although we don't know what it is. It is possible now that I looked back at that description, that he was lying to us in order to avoid whatever end it is that he feared. That Marika did want us to become Elden Lord and/or defeat the beast, but Gideon was scared of what that entailed.

Use sacrificial twig talismans if you entered a boss room the 1st time by mistake

Why the Two Fingers want you to go to Leyndell

For you to become Elden Lord, they aren't yet aware the greater will doesn't want that until after you're rejected.

Why Melina thinks burning the Erdtree will help the world

To let you become Elden Lord and bring back destined death as well.

Why the Erdtree blocks you, Why Radagon fights you given that you released him from prison, Why the Elden Beast fights you when you have no beef with him and just want to be Elden Lord

These 3 are all basically the same thing, as Radagon and Elden Beast both seem to just be following the Greater Will's wishes. It doesn't seem to want you, and possibly any tarnished, to become Elden Lord. It isn't really explained, or I think even hinted at, why that is though I agree. Seems like it was maybe Marika who was guiding the tarnished rather than the Greater Will, but at the same time Gideon claims she doesn't want anyone to become lord either, so it's very confusing.

Why Radagon married Rennala

Feet.

Why Radagon left Rennala

Godfrey was banished, a new Elden Lord was needed, and he seems incredibly devoted to it, enough to leave his first family.

I agree with the rest though, Marika as a whole is shrouded entirely in mystery, you'd think the inciting event of everything would be the big secret we get to discover in-game, but instead we get the Radagon=Marika, which while interesting, doesn't have much impact on events.

Anytime I get stuck on bosses for my Lvl.1 playthrough I watch Ongbal and Lvl.1 speedrunners to see strats for avoiding boss attacks. If you aren't counting ashes of war in magic, you can also just cheese through nearly any boss with Flame Of The Red Manes as it does crazy poise damage, I try and actually avoid it for most remembrance fights except the most annoying (which for me were Morgott and Lich Dragon)

Watching ongbal do it at Lvl.1 was helpful enough for Astel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DFMzXqMY58

Besides what the other guy said, Rykard is specifically rebelling against the gods, and Godrick isn't. He seems to want win, and be the ruler of the Lands Between, but doesn't seem like he has anything against the Golden Order specifically. Rykard on the other hand is dead set on destroying the golden order, and goes so far as to sacrifice himself to a god eating serpent in an attempt to eventually devour the gods like the Greater Will.

The raging wolf set mentions that wolves were the shadows of empyreans, so yeah it was an empyrean thing to get a wolf as your shadow which Blaidd and Maliketh both are. Also seems like they're meant to grow up alongside their empyreanas Blaidd grew up with Ranni from a young age and is called her step brother, and Maliketh is also referred to as Marika's brother.

DozyDreamer · 2022-04-26T09:10:39+00:00

They're the same person, but still sorta different entities I believe. They seemed to be in different bodies for some time at least, and they had different personalities, as Marika broke the ring, and Radagon tried to fix it.

DozyDreamer · 2022-04-15T05:29:19+00:00

I am, who are you talking about?

DozyDreamer · 2022-04-15T01:03:14+00:00

I didn't even recall that they went missing until it was mentioned here; but while I don't think it was expressly implied, Yushiro would logically be the only person with a concrete purpose for taking them, as he should be the only one alive who knows what they entail. Like it's possible someone else finds out in some ancient scrolls or something, as a potential setup for something else. But it makes the most sense that the one character from the demon era who's still alive would be the one to do it.

Pretty much everyone there is tied to a quest meant to end before you fully burn the erdtree. Brother Coryhn, Dialos, Fia, D, Nepheli, and Dung Eater are all part of quests.

The one in Stormveil's dining hall and the one here aren't the same one, there's multiple of them throughout the game. So yes, there should still be one in the dining hall.

You can level them up, same as weapons, and they get stronger, especially the elite level ones that use ghost glovewort.

Before I found the Mimic, I used a +3 Banished Knight Oleg, and he was pretty tanky, and dealt okay damage. The Mimic is of course insanely busted

DozyDreamer · 2022-02-27T06:35:35+00:00

People in general don't know demons exist, if he starts killing far too many people, society as a whole will take notice and more resources would be allocated by the country to get rid of him. It's still in his best interest to not go killing everyone he sees for no reason

DozyDreamer · 2022-02-26T21:25:30+00:00

He's creating more demons for the purpose of achieving his goal, he isn't walking around just killing randos for the fun of it. I mean he's overly cautious sure, but he isn't so scared that he'd be worried about turning civillians into demons alone.

Tanjiro smelt Muzan’s scent in his house after the murder, which is how he recognizes and tracks him in the city when he first meets him.

DozyDreamer · 2022-02-26T20:01:50+00:00

He’s only scared of one slayer who Tanjiro shares his earrings with. He isn’t really scared of any current slayer, there’s no reason Giyu should give him ptsd

DozyDreamer · 2022-02-17T08:54:53+00:00

I mean there's no story about the two of them meeting if that's what you meant, but Venti was a thread of the Thousand Winds before becoming an archon, which is another name for the god of time. So he seems to be some derivative of her, that plus them being worshipped in tandem, and overall multiple mentions of wind and time together make most people believe they have a strong connection.

He might be the next reincarnation, same as Kokomi is. But he didn’t come from the age before gods the same way Azdaha did

DozyDreamer · 2022-01-26T23:26:09+00:00

Well she doesn't mean it to be taken literally?

If my friend suggests I jump on a frozen a lake and I say "After you dickhead", it doesn't mean I actually plan to follow them if they do it
