You can't avoid dying in Dark Souls for eternity, you know that, but sometimes death just strikes you so unexpected, so creative, that it's just ridiculous.
So I ask you, which were the craziest ways you died?
I'll bring in gladly some examples to start this:
- A day like every other day in the Great Hollow. Me jumping down one branch after the other without expecting anything to happen. But then I perform this very jump, a jump I made a million times before already... but what is it I will fall into?
Exactly, the rotten plant of a cursed player from another world, I slip and cave to death.
- Sen's Fortress. I'm about to face the crocodile which will be slapped away by the huge rock everyone knows just some seconds in the future. I'm like, let's tickle him quickly before he dies! So I run towards him, perform a run-attack with a Claymore... and of course get hit by the rock too. But which is the direction I get thrown in? Not the one the rock was facing (why would I, even?), no, I get shot into the direction of the abyss in front of me, no way of salvation available.
- Not certainly my death, but a funny one indeed:
The Catacombs. I was invaded by a dark phantom a while ago, but I literally gave a crap.
I was about to pull a lever to turn a bridge as this very phantom was standing behind me all of a sudden, willing more than anything to stab me.
This happens: He attacks me some frames before the pull-animation ends, so he is somewhat phasewalking through him, allowing -me- to backstab -him-, pushing my Divine Claymore through his heart and beyond.
I imagine his face.
