Dark Souls II isn’t just about dying, I swear. There is actually a lot of lore, and strategy, and moments of glory. Of course, there is also a lot of dying, and stats are showing just how you all are failing to survive.
Beyond the Bonfire shows off the glory of Dark Souls II. It’s not just about total deaths – there are stats on what kills people, what inventory items are most used, and which enemies have been killed the most. I’m going to start with the most depressing figure – 7,256,041,471,781 souls have been lost. That’s right, that’s how many times people had souls, died, and then died again. You all really need to work on that. Of course, when almost 34 million of you are dying simply from falling, it seems death is just around every corner.
It appears that the most hated enemy is the stray hound – with 80 525 493 of them killed, that a lot of howling. Have you killed the Tseldoran Settler? Well, you’re one of very few; only 643 871 of them have been killed. In fact, only 190,482 characters have made it to the end. That’s really not that many. Although, how many people honestly finished Dark Souls?
Are you equipping the Heide Knight Iron Mask? Of course you are – it’s the most popular helm to wear. I just can’t believe how many of you are wearing Havel’s equipment. You must be a slow and steady tank.
I’m still enjoying the game. It’s hard, there’s no doubt, but the co-op is making it a lot of fun. Praise the Sun!

The Shrine of Amana is the best. Watch people joyfully walk through the water and then suddenly disappear beneath it

You ruined The little teapot for me, so I shall ruin Sleeping beauty for you!!!
In one of the very earliest versions of this classic story, published in 1634 by Giambattista Basile as Sun, Moon, and Talia, the princess does not prick her finger on a spindle, but rather gets a sliver of flax stuck under her fingernail. She falls down, apparently dead, but her father cannot face the idea of losing her, so he lays her body on a bed in one of his estates. Later, a king out hunting in the woods finds her, and since he can’t wake her up, rapes her while she’s unconscious, then heads home to his own country. Some time after that, still unconscious, she gives birth to two children, and one of them accidentally sucks the splinter out of her finger, so she wakes up. The king who raped her is already married, but he burns his wife alive so he and Talia can be together. Don’t worry, the wife tries to kill and eat the babies first, so it’s all morally sound.
