DS III confirm that Ornstein in one is a illusion created by Gwyndolin. Ornstein levae his soul there and go to search his master, the nameless king. You can see his armor and weapon in his arena, with no body. That guy in ds ii is someone who admire him or is ornstein himself, after he left the nameless king too.
Except that makes no sense Dark souls 1 and 3 don't happen exactly the same Dark souls 3 is a different cycle with different events Ornstein in ds 1 is the real ornstein how else would you get his ring? Also him leaving his soul makes no sense either But hey leave it to brainless people to say the dumbest shit
@@some_shitposting_idiot3023only one who appears brainless here is you mate, pretty well confirmed that Ornstein in dks 1 is an illusion, only Smough remains in anor londo
For the Ornstein thing, lorewise I always pictured that since the ds1 character more than likely did the relight the fire ending, when they light the fire, they effectively lose all their souls to the fire. Obvious, I know. But in effect I think this means that all the souls they absorbed are "set free" in a sense, so perhaps they can go back to their old body or they can go find a new one. That's my head canon at least. That would explain why Ornstein was around in ds1 and ds2, and could also maybe explain why his armor set is at the peak in ds3, he was brought back to life again after the ds2 character presumably lights the first flame again. This could also explain some ds3 things like why aldrich seems to have absorbed gwyndolin and what seems to be nito's skeleton bits, and transposing their soul gives you priscilla's scythe as a spell. That could just be that the ds1 character never killed priscilla, but my resurrection upon relighting the fire covers both bases. They were all also effectively brought back after the fire being relit.
I love this! Scythes represent!!! I played my first playthrough of dark souls 3 with only the bow, because I was too scared to get close to anything, and kind of accidentally stuck myself in a build, then I got a hold of a side and loved it. I've been a side main all the way up until elden ring, when I couldn't find one that I liked. They are amazing, especially for pvp.
Also, I was looking back at some of your previous videos, and it seems like you came out of nowhere and started making videos that were successful out of nowhere. Do you have any advice for me as I am contemplating whether or not I actually want to start a RUclips channel more than just me streaming games I'm playing? Like programs you use, editing software, strategies for keeping audience attention?
@@ProtomanWasTaken my biggest advice would be to make content you enjoy doing but always look to progress each video, the "lets play" type videos didn't get the views id want but it served as a good stepping stone to learn how to record, commentate, edit, ect. i'm using the most basic of programs (clipchamp for editing and gimp for thumbnails) but basically start simple, stay dedicated and just brainstorm fun interesting video ideas that you as a viewer might find interesting.
@@heyimricky8311 thank you. I use gimp outplayed, and obs, but never clipchamp. I'll take a look. I appreciate itan, and good luck. Looking forward to part 3
For the four side bosses (Armor, RRA, Gargoyals, and Dark Lurker), I tend to fight them between Ancient Dragon and the DLC. Thus, they are usually cake walk for me (well, except for the Dark Lurker).
Damn not gonna lie just found your channel today but wow I love what you do especially dark souls stuff haha I love it man can’t wait to keep watching you stuff! Keep it up man! Also your music choice is damn perfect so good love all the games they are from especially ratchet and clank so good 😎
Concerning Ornstein...it's a mess. Basically: the one in Dark Souls 2 is plain not there. Miyazaki didn't like Dark Souls 2 and so ignored most of it. When it comes to Dark Souls 3, he retconned the Ornstein and Smough fight. Smough at one point became a knight. Like the 4 knights kind of knight. This happened because he was literally the only one to not leave Anor Londo. Ornstein LEFT the cathedral to look for the Nameless King, his master and general.
I love that you use runescape music and reference runescape and have the same energy and voice tones as SparcMac. If i didnt know better id say you were just SparcMac playing Dark Souls. Chill series while I play OSRS
Technically you’re correct on dragon roost island but it’s from Legend of Zelda: the Wind Waker 😅 I’m being nitpicky right now only because that’s my favorite game. Great video!
You are absolutely correct I don't know if they're any differences between the original and the smash bros version but that's the one i downloaded so just incase i felt that was the best way to cite it (wind waker is a goated game though)
@@heyimricky8311 you’re absolutely correct!! I went listening and I think the main differences are in quality of recording… I apologize for being nitpicky nonetheless keep it up!
Due to a revelation in DS 3, the Ornstein in DS 1 is an illusion and Smough crushing it is the cannon way to end the battle. DS 2 the Old Dragonslayer is a different person and Ornstein shows up (in a fashion) in DS 3.
I played DSII very late and there were tons of videos on how to get rid of Mytha's poison. But I didn't and just brute forced my way to victory through the poison pool😅
12:50 if we think that killing 1st smough or 1st ornstein are both canon then there's definately both souls present but guess you can only get one cause 2 of them get the soul before you. It is also possible that both of them are illusions made by Gwyndolin, using their souls, to test us before giving us soul vessel. But there's no real hint to that, I would think that way cause why the fuck would they defend illusion of a woman or maybe they just defend the vessel the only definitive info though is that both souls are present when you arrive
Hey man just finished watching this video onto the other two really enjoyed this challenge and now i really feel like replaying DS2 again it might not be the players first choice in the series but it definiteky has some fun moments and fun bosses! Especially with the SOTFS edition 😊
Ornstein in Dark Souls 1 is likely an illusion conjured up by Gwyndolyn. In that fight, Smough can bleed but Ornstein can't. (No idea how we can get his soul though, maybe he bequeathed a part of it to Gwyndolyn before leaving?) The Ornstein in Dark Souls 2 is just another Dragon Slayer, it's quite literally someone cosplaying as him. In Dark Souls 3 we learn what really was of Ornstein: he followed Gwyn's firstborn, abandoned his armor and very likely became the nameless king pet parrot. At least, that's my interpretation.
That’s a pretty solid interpretation I never realized Ornstein can’t bleed that really backs up the illusion theory I’ve seen from a few different sources now
Who doesn’t fight skeleton lords that way? Isn’t that how it’s done? As for old dragon slayer, it’s a difficult thing to explain over a comment, but basically drangleic is a long losing its own image through hollowing. In drangleic, what is remembered by others is what exists. Someone either very much thought of themselves as ornstein, or the title of “dragonslayer” warped the perception of this warrior into the dragonslayer of legend that people recognized. It’s all a convoluted mess, but if you let your imagination wander a bit when thinking about it, ds2 lore becomes so frickin cool
Everybody tells me to take 1 skeleton lord at a time, and that's a super interesting take on Ornstein Ik some people are strictly by the facts "even if that fact is an item description on some random piece of equipment" but like you said if you let your imagination go a bit you get all these cool scenarios
I explained this poorly I meant in this challenge run it’s the only save file he lived (I made 8 files because I kept failing the majula pit skip at the beginning)
Hey, nice video. Do you have any social media like instagram? Also, humbly disagree with darklurker. Probably my favourite boss with one of the worst run ups...
I love darklurker, and I agree with you, but in context along side Sir Alonne they are top bosses for dks2, fairly average souls series bosses in general
Honestly after my last few playthroughs of darklurker i've come to appreciate it more and more the run back is absolutely dreadful and i will never change my mind on that but the fight itself is actually really fun... even if i spent 3 minutes of it literally panicking As for socials i don't have any as of yet but its been something i've been contemplating beginning and when i do ill be sure to make a post about it!
@@heyimricky8311 It is but this last run I did I got invaded by forlorn as soon as I entered each new area, so sometimes that random seems scripted, and I not 100% but I believe being hollow increases the chances as well
You are right the song is originally from Wind Waker, but believe it or not the 2 games have slightly different versions of the song and the one i used was from smash bros.

Also him leaving his soul makes no sense either
But hey leave it to brainless people to say the dumbest shit
@@some_shitposting_idiot3023 He left the ring there, and souls are in this universe what eyes are in the Naruto universe.

@@some_shitposting_idiot3023ornstein’s soul description literally says it was gifted to him by gwyn. nothing about the original comment is dumb
@@some_shitposting_idiot3023 whole anor londo is ilussion its so obvious you cant be that slow to even question it
talking about clueless ok buddy
I like the way you edited the soul level and weapon upgrades over the gameplay. Also this is a cool run idea for replaying these games. Good vidya 👍
This is well done Ricky, you deserve all the fame that's coming, love ya man
I appreciate that

i havent paid much attention to any ds2 walkthrough so i have no idea what you said... but the ratchet and clank music slaps
Dude you just watched static for 1 hour 16 minutes 💀💀💀
@@emanuelstornello8009 colors were pretty and also M A J U L A
This is something that I've always wanted to do. Thanks for putting in the work mate, cheers.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO JUST FOUND THE FIRST ONE AM+ND I DIDNT REALISE IT WAS IN PARTS THANK YOUUUU
that darklurker fight got me on edge
Can’t wait to see part III man keep it up.
i usually dont sub to smaller channels but this is some great content! cant wait for ds3
lol the very end was so funny, you actually went back to kill everyone in iron keep. Dedication.
wow that dark lurker fight was AMAZING to watch
DS2 lacks so much creativity compared to DS1 it’s insane… your commentary made the video bearable to watch, good work 🫶🏼
I never thought I would have heard "Amazoness swordswoman" in a ds2 video lol
Due to a revelation in DS 3, the Ornstein in DS 1 is an illusion and Smough crushing it is the cannon way to end the battle. DS 2 the Old Dragonslayer is a different person and Ornstein shows up (in a fashion) in DS 3.
i love how in DS1 this build was incredibly strong and in this game it absolutely sucks. amazing video
im looking forward to your dark souls 3 play through
Dude your carpet is an acid users worst nightmare
The second darklurker was like if I dieing your coming with us but failed 1:13:17
Yeah, I mean I did casually, strength faith op
Always make great fun builds until i overlevel and can use everything
glorious video.
THE LONG-AWAITED SEQUEL
I love this game
Awesome video
Counted the push-ups. Can confirm 80 push-ups.
Edit: might of done 81 unless they counts when their down instead of up
I have a bad habit of losing count when i workout sometimes... 🤣
Liking because of the Jak X music
Fun fact ,You can summon am npc to burn the windmill
Edit: I actually like the shrine of Amana too
Oh wow i didn't know that
True DS2 Expirience
I played DSII very late and there were tons of videos on how to get rid of Mytha's poison. But I didn't and just brute forced my way to victory through the poison pool😅
5:59 4 hours=60 moonlight butterfly’s 😂
17:14 "Super Smash Bros. Bawl" 🤣
2 minutes in and I already know you can beat ds2 without estus or lifegems so I’m confident it won’t be too much of a problem lol

Despite its flaws and the opinion of a lot of the community I'll always enjoy playing DS2... except if it involves the frigid outskirts 🤣
37:30 they can't shoot they only heal, so yeah even if you come up to them they won't do much
I would have accepted Drangleic armor too

That’s a pretty solid interpretation I never realized Ornstein can’t bleed that really backs up the illusion theory I’ve seen from a few different sources now
Ornstein can bleed it just takes more hits and does less damage
I thought there was a 4ing in da4k souls 2 that returns the roll from 1?
Part 2 lets fucking go
5:13 huntsman’s COPSE not CORPSE 🫣
Nah fr tho i had been waiting for ds2
Who doesn’t fight skeleton lords that way? Isn’t that how it’s done?

This video is approximately 19 moonlight butterflies long
how many moonlight butterflies did the blue demon take?
about 38 😂
although the pushups for the comments was unnecessarily, they are greatly appreciated. All sins have been forgiven.
🙏 :)
I wanna do this now, but as an added restriction, im gonna use a build i dont like! So I'm thinking longsword and shield, your basic quality knight.
Gg
"Only safefile where Mauglin is alive" Huh, never used boss armors then?
I explained this poorly I meant in this challenge run it’s the only save file he lived (I made 8 files because I kept failing the majula pit skip at the beginning)

1: 43 Torch is in the 3rd DS game
yeah but not in dark souls 1, rulez are weapon/armor/item that exist in all souls games.
80 deserved pushups xD
I am fairly sure that all three Dark Souls games have torches 🤔
DS1 doesn't It only had the lantern and the sunlight maggot
@heyimricky8311 Well, I stand corrected fair enough
Forlorn invades in each area
I thought it was a random chance though?

do 50 pushup or else imma be under ur bed (next vid do them)
Why not the rose blossom shield in DS2? It fits the aesthetic more
I didn't know about the stam regen effect until after i got the slumbering dragoncrest shield 😅
@@heyimricky8311 ahhh ok. To he fair, i missed the rose one until NG+2 then i found it 😅
Its huntsman's copse, not corpse. I want my pushups.

Would've liked if you didn't say the dragon roost theme was from smash bros. Better luck next time.
You are right the song is originally from Wind Waker, but believe it or not the 2 games have slightly different versions of the song and the one i used was from smash bros.
Bro you only did 60 push ups not 80
make this on elden ring after ds3
;)
I HATE THIS GUYS A LOT 42:11
The spider is called Freja, not duke
Duke is probably that hollow guy in the room after the fight
Please, don't do push-ups for this one
I've played this game for over 10 years and i never pieced that together... I'll just do a few off camera pushups for this one XD
Just pretend you did it to avoid the discourse on how to pronounce her name 😅
