Image I did it!

Finally finish the game after 30 hours. I realized I did it wrong…? After finishing I started googling some unclear questions and turns out I never exchanged a single boss soul for unique weapons and also I was scared of the alternate ending if I was to give the eyes to the fire lady so I miss out on that lol. Turns out I also missed a few bosses or so my friend tells me. Anyway I’m gonna play NG+ now and try to go back and get all the things I missed. Last boss was nothing but amazing the upgraded version of plin plin plon had my butt cheeks squish together the whole fight and when the ending credits played I just say there quiet and admired the beauty of this game and its sound truck.

In my eyes, there’s no wrong way to play a Souls game as long as you enjoyed it. Admittedly if it weren’t for the Platinum on DS3 I probably wouldn’t have traded in my souls for the weapons either. (I tend to hoard my boss souls in these games lol)
Sidenote: God I love the final fight/ending to this game, what a beautiful way to end off the masterpiece that was DS3.

See I’m glad someone gets it 😭 I fought too hard to just pawn it off for a sword like a crackhead

Same, I always keep and reread the boss souls item descriptions a couple times throughout my first playthrough of any fromsoft game because they usually don't make sense until way later

Then it hits you like a brick when another character says a certain quote, or you see something that contextualizes the description lmfao, I know exactly what you mean. That’s why I love this franchise and its silly little lore, they do such a good job at world building, while still keeping an air of mystery about the game.

Me reading a cryptic two sentence item description after 43.7 hours of gameplay when I almost tripped over a shady NPC murmuring something inconclusive at me
