Pretty difficult with how hideous Souls characters tend to be. Not kawaii at all.

Elden Reddit changed the game more than Fury Road in that regard:

How about an entry where dying makes you more furry?

After every death, your body slowly grows more blubbery and rotund due to the effects of putrefaction & you gain new abilities such as spewing noxious gas from your orifices.

All medieval fantasy gayms end with you in a helmet, rendering all that precious facial customiation moot.

Deaths before Anor Londo are fairly rare for me anyway.

Stupid fucking rooftop snipers.

I was thinking of the famous Wombo and Combo noob trap 2vs1 boss. I usually lose a life to wheel skellingtens in the painted world too. Sen's Fortress (just prior) can also take a life easily if you're going for all the treasure.

Smounstein & Orgh are overrated, and I found the skellingtons to be perfectly survivable if you know where the block button is.

But DSP CAN'T BLOCK!
I believe on his very first time in DS1 he summoned every available (NPC) phantom to beat Orny & Cunt because I've never seen any fail compilations of him trying to defeat them.
Think what you want about DS2 but the series really needs more bosses like Looking Glass Knight (or failing that, Old Monk).

I beat those faggots solo because the one time I used a phantom that guy got killed instantly.

The skellingtens sometimes meme you even when you're blocking. If they manage to wedge you into a corner, they have this thing where the wheelspin hits on every single frame (or it feels like that.) It drains your stamina instantly and then kills you. If you stay away from corners then this usually doesn't happen, but there are a couple of spots where you can get memed. Sometimes a skelly will hit you from behind and stunlock you for an entire lifebar, while other times you'll get knocked away and take almost no damage. Painted World probably has the meanest wheel skelly spawn location too.

Unga and Bunga aren't too bad, but new players fighting them without summons will have a rough time if they haven't learned how to use the lock-on camera to watch two enemies at the same time.

The ones that surprise me when I hear about dsp or some other scrub dying to them are the super easy bosses like Cleric Beast. Unlock your camera and you can dance on top of him while he's unable to /cope

>Cleric Beast

What's next? The Druid Monster? The Wizard Creature?

I dunno, Cleric beast isn't the most unusual boss name in Bloodbahrne, I feel. I like Ebrietas because it reminds me of sobriety (which I don't have).

DSP is showing that constant lock on for giant bosses isn't always such a good idea as the camera always pans way up and he whines "CAN'T SEE" and panic rolls into a corner and then cusses out the developers for intentionally putting a tree or rock in this place just to get him killed.
Expert Dark Souls player, dood.
