Does FromSoft realize that if EVERY single NPC sidequest has a bad ending it completely detracts from the impact of the bad ending? At this point it's completely predictable that the questline of any NPC will end up in one of these ways: - They fuck off and die somewhere (Thops, Millicent) - They go insane and you have to kill them (Blaidd) - Something terrible happens to them (Sellen)
If you actually didn't know if they're gonna end up OK or not it would have much more impact when something bad happens to them.
if you want a good ending for them then don't do their quests
Jason Lee
Nobody gets a good ending because you practically remake the world by becoming Elden Lord.
Nathaniel Hill
Plenty of npcs get good endings, and even some of the ones that die do so because they die happy, like Alexander. Compare that to DS1 where every quest boils down to "and then they went hollow, the end"
Christopher Jackson
>Does FromSoft realize that if EVERY single NPC sidequest has a bad ending it completely detracts from the impact of the bad ending? No and Miyazaki is a hack who won't change because his hackery keeps being rewarded, simple as.
Julian Young
You are talking about a world that functions as literal purgatory. There is no "good" outcome. There isnt even food or infrastructure.
Easton Lewis
What's their tax policy?
Samuel Powell
feet
Levi Price
I blame GRRM. That's his fetish. How bad can he make the world for his characters. He is getting revenge for his shitty childhood.
Brandon Collins
it's been like that since the first game, you just get used to it and completely ignore the quests
genuine chad. fromsoft dialogue is so fucking boring and substanceless, and the actors' delivery is so painfully slow. and no, i don't fucking have ADHD fromtards, i'm a kojimafag
John Jones
People can't imagine the idea that a video game has a world that's gone to shit and everyone gets a raw deal like they need some light at the end of the tunnel for their pixels. Sometimes there is no fucking happy ending. It's a souls game when are you ever happy? People are retards yet still play their games.
Luke Parker
They're not all bad endings retard
Zachary Martinez
At least nepheli loux had a good ending.
Luis Barnes
as a puppet
Zachary Gutierrez
spics projecting themselves on a image becuase in RL they are overweight oily and bad bone structure
Aaron Morales
or better yet - Their questline is just unifinished and doesn't get fixed (Kenneth, Patches, Tanith)
David Phillips
She literally always becomes the new ruler of limgrave unless you purposely go out of your way to give her the poison, retard.
Asher Rodriguez
They will never learn anything because their lazy rehashed shit sells and sells and sells. True creatives strive to do new things, From is just a bunch hacks that got lucky with Demon's Souls and are now going to ride the gravy train into the ground.
Zachary Allen
Nephelli, Rya, and monk guy.
Jacob Watson
Not sure what you're talking about user, at the end of my favourite NPC questline we got married and she saved the world?
Brayden Carter
Nepheli and Kenneth can technically get a good ending.
Didn't they fix that in the last couple of patches? I remember I finished Kenneth's quest, which was tied to Nepheli. And Patches can be found in that one castle where you get the valkyrie prosthetic for Millicent.
Evan Hernandez
I’ve jerked off to sorceress sellens feet on many occasions.
Hudson Green
patches is dead retard
Christopher Edwards
solaire has a good ending crabbro has a good ending dusk of oolacille has a good ending
Anthony Sullivan
He isn't. Once you find him at the The Shaded Castle, he only pretends to die. Sit at a grace and return, his body isn't there and there's nothing left behind. The implication is that he only pretended to die so he can leave without anyone following him.
Michael Allen
Nepheli, Kenneth, Rya, and Patches all have complete quest chains. I think you guys may just be retarded.
Christian Powell
Blaidd isn't even the protagonist of his quest, Ranni does have a happy ending
Ryan Lopez
My boy Boc is living just fine and is happy I called him beautiful just like his mum did
Cameron Richardson
another example of the souls formula being stretched past its limit. sad to see Miyazaki so creatively stunted ER would have been much better if not everything in the world was out to kill you. Add some comfy areas, add some towns, add some life to the world
Charles Thomas
I didn't mean to reply, I was using them as examples of "happy" endings.
David Reed
If every npc will have a bad end, what is stoping me from killing them? I dont understand some retard items will not stoping u being evil.
Ethan Collins
Seethe more, tranny. You will never taste my gigacock inside your fake post-op pussy.
It does become tiresome and predictable when most quest end up in certain death. I mean, Blaidd goes insane and you have to kill him, Millicent dies because she wants do, Alexander dies because he wants an honorable fight, Diallos dies trying to be a hero, Darian gets killed by Fia, and then Fia gets killed by his twin brother, who also commits suicide, Iji and Selivus get assassinated, Irina dies and Edgar goes mad, then you have to put him down, Sellen either dies or becomes a ball etc.
Julian Sanders
Yeah but that's stupid, if there is evil then there must be good, otherwise the world doesn't make sense. Which is why I always make up my own scenario in my mind when I play soulsborne games. I always imagine that in the end I permanently fix the world.
Charles Sullivan
You always get something in return at the end of the quest, still them just dying because reason just makes them characters that inhabit that broken world with their own motivations, you may lend a hand but they essentially carve their own path.
It feels unfinished because you can't find him again and you don't get his bwll bearing. The only vendor you can lose access to.
Ian Wilson
The point isn't that you stupid nigger The point is its overused It's just like Fromsofts obsession with poison areas (which is a miracle there's barely any in Elden Ring) and bosses having slow attacks
Christopher Morris
the world is a complete shithole that seemingly has no remaining functioning civilisation if anything it'd make less sense if they had good ending because there's nowhere to go to live any semblance of a happy life until From stop being faggots and make proper settlements that will never change
Ethan Adams
what do you suppose she looks like under that mask
Charles Evans
Because she turns into an ugly rock.
Landon Williams
>become Elden Lord >still get smacked on sight by literally everyone great
I didn't even finish sellens quest. She gives a you a flintstone and then kills herself. Ok what the fuck am I supposed to do with a glintstone? I'm not reading a fucking guide
Angel Barnes
She's handsome bro, but in a good way. That's the kind of girl you want to marry because regardless of the sex of your child they're going to look better than your dumbass as long as they take after their mom.
>Didn't they fix that in the last couple of patches? no. They only fixed it for Nepheli and Diallos. > I remember I finished Kenneth's quest No you didn't. Kenneth's quest is clearly supposed to end with meeting him at Fort Haight and him knighting you and giving you the golden seed he possesses (which can currently still only be obtained by murdering him). But this never happens. >And Patches can be found in that one castle where you get the valkyrie prosthetic for Millicent. Yes and he gives you the dancer's castanets which you give to Tanith and then nothing happens.
So we still have quests that even a month and a half after release are still blatantly just not done despite the fact that i can basically count the number of total questlines in the game on one hand.
you have to come back and Jerren kills her body then you go to Pidia's warehouse and there's a body there
Dominic Bell
fuuark, mirin dem jawlines
Mason Lopez
>Kenneth >"I'm going to knight you for sure" >never happens, he never goes back to fort Haight >he still has a golden seed which he never gives you seems like you're the fucking retard.
>Patches >he gives you the dancer's castanets and then nothing. He doesn't even die he just sits there.
>Rya >I'm setting out on a journey to be like my mom >never see her again the entire rest of the game.
Zachary Clark
>literally just Morrigan with blue eyes, and is less of a ho Oh snap
Nicholas Smith
>never goes back to fort Haight Uhh.... user?
Hudson Fisher
He doesn't you fucking retard he just stays in the Stormveil castle throne room.
Parker Long
>too stupid to realize Kenneth is a charlatan >so dumb he doesn't know Patches heads off to do his own thing like every other game >mucho retardo can't understand what farewell means
Adrian Russell
Acquire test
Ryan Scott
>too stupid to realize Kenneth is a charlatan He has a golden seed. The obvious intention is for him to give it to you at the end of his quest. At Stormveil castle he says he's going to go back to Fort Haight so he can knight you properly and but he just doesn't What is so difficult to understand about this? It's clearly unfinished. If it was meant to end where it ends the devs wouldn't have given him a golden seed. >so dumb he doesn't know Patches heads off to do his own thing like every other game He doesn't though he just stays at the shaded castle outside the boss room. Play the fucking game.
