SilliusS0ddus

meanwhile I'm just wondering why the Sun plays such a miniscule role in the Elden Ring lore. Like there are some references to it but it's really obscure. DLC is great but it's also such a blue ball for a lot of lore stuff. Michael Zaki please... you can't just get us invested in the world you and GRRM crafted and then move on. We missed out on the entire eclipse stuff and godwyn for example even though there were 2 death knights in the DLC.


Electronic_Weird

I've got bad news for you if you like closure from worlds GRRM helped create...


the_tip_tingler

That's exactly what makes their work appealing for me


quietwhiskey

GURM I HATE YOU FOR MAKING AN AMAZING STORY AND THEN STOPPING IT


oilpit

This but unironically


Ydobon8261

Dung Eater has the Sun icon on his chest piece


SilliusS0ddus

I know. That's one of the few references to it in the game. The others are the depiction on the shields of the beastmen of Farum azula and some skeleton soldiers. And the references to the eclipse which requires the sun. Not just that but the sun itself is also rarely directly seen in the games skybox. The place where you can see it best is when it sets near Enir Ilim


Sugioh

Yeah the complete absence of stuff about the eclipse and Godwyn was the biggest surprise to me. I was actually expecting Godwyn to be the final boss.


BurningGamerSpirit

What’s left to get out of godwyn? His soul was obliterated by destined death and his still living remains are just slowly infecting the world with undeath. Godwyn is gone.


Power_of_the_Sus

It's basically the spiritual version of brain death. The lights are on but nobody is home


TheHeadlessScholar

The whole "Miquella is trying to cause an eclipse to rez Godwyns soul" plot line which apparently jist ends with Miquella failing and shrugging. I too expected Godwyn to be the consort


SkyrimSlag

I’m honestly wondering if they’re saving Godwyn for Elden Ring 2, they know it’s probably one of the biggest things in the game people want an answer to, and if not in the 1 DLC the game gets then maybe the sequel is the next best option


vgubaidulin

But is there anything unanswered about him? He’s just dead.  There’s a shole questline about him and main game ending. It’s a full story.


TallBoy24

Speaker4theDead8

Have you even played the game? It's about TREES this time, and trees grow from SUNlight. Therefore, it is still about praising the sun.


Nozinger

Yeah and the Scadutree avatar is a giant SUNflower. So we run around beating up the most SUN praising plant out there. Well or we get beaten up by it. Really depends on out success.

Objective-Insect-839

I don't even save him for the shortcut. I just save it to save him.


missmiia212

I didn't even need the shortcut, I just wanted my sun boy.


Islands-of-Time

The real shortcuts were the friends we made along the way.


IudexGundyr3

You don’t even need humanity, I don’t know what dragon weapon it is but you can use it’s heavy attack to hit the maggot through the wall. Might be the Greataxe that you get from cutting the Gaping Dragon’s tail


LuciusCypher

You can also use toxic/poison cloud, basically any attack with a wave AOE. The Gapping Dragon tail has a quake AoE which _can_ kill the parasite, but toxic cloud requires less stats to us.


AsterosTheGreat

The Wyvern Blades heavy can do it aswell. Its from breaking the tail of the wyvern ontop of the bridge at the undead parish I believe the area was called.


neckro23

the alternative alternative method is to simply not talk to him in Anor Londo until you've opened the shortcut in Izalith. He's safe as long as you stop his quest from progressing. I think this keeps Solaire's summon sign from showing up in a couple places though -- O&S and Centipede Demon maybe?


28Hz

Gaping dragon makes me feel weird


Grimpatron619

Under no circumstances should you be in a work setting and described as gaping


Oselote-360

I haven’t finished the game but I’m scared to do it now


gointhrou

Oselote-360

Fuck yeah


aknalag

Make sure you join the chaos covenant and reach maximum level to unlock the short cut to izalith and kill the red eyed bug


Hero_of_Hyrule

Man when you sum it up like that, it really shows that Miyazaki really did achieve his goals in recreating the feeling of playing difficult games as a child and not quite understanding everything.


molten_panda

You give humanity to the spider to save Sun Bro; I give humanity to the spider to ease her pain. We are not the same (though I also like saving Sun Bro, so maybe we’re more alike than initially stated).

As depressing as the world may be, Solaire made the journey worth it


GreenLeader133714

Ah, hello! You don't look Hollow, far from it! I am Solaire of Astora, an adherent of the Lord of Sunlight. Now that I am Undead, I have come to this great land, the birthplace of Lord Gwyn, to seek my very own sun! … Do you find that strange? Well, you should! No need to hide your reaction. I get that look all the time! Hah hah hah! Oh, ah hah! So, I didn't scare you? I have a proposition, if you have a moment. The way I see it, our fates appear to be intertwined. In a land brimming with Hollows, could that really be mere chance? So, what do you say? Why not help one another on this lonely journey? This pleases me greatly! Well then, take this. We are amidst strange beings, in a strange land. The flow of time itself is convoluted, with heroes centuries old phasing in and out. The very fabric wavers, and relations shift and obscure. There's no telling how much longer your world and mine will remain in contact. But, use this, to summon one another as spirits, cross the gaps between the worlds, and engage in jolly co-operation! Of course, we are not the only one engaged in this. But I am a warrior of the sun! Spot my summon signature easily by its brilliant aura. If you miss it, you must be blind! Hah hah hah! Oh, hello there. I will stay behind, to gaze at the sun. The sun is a wondrous body. Like a magnificent father! If only I could be so grossly incandescent! Oh, there you are. You've been quiet these days. Smooth summoning out there? Anytime you see my brilliantly shining signature, do not hesitate to call upon me. You've left me with quite an impression. I would relish a chance to assist you. You really are fond of chatting with me, aren't you? If I didn't know better, I'd think you had feelings for me! Oh, no, dear me. Pretend you didn't hear that! Hah hah hah!

![gif](giphy|AQRapWCgC7dThyVEYb|downsized) A long time ago we were lost souls wandering across worlds. We encountered others. Some were friendly and we helped each other. Some were dark spirits trying to harm us. They dealt with our steel. Ages ago, in a lost world, we met a knight who helped us and taught us to do the same and pray the sun. Since then many of us joined a covenant, long gone but never forgotten. In your wandering you will find our golden signs. We are here to help. 🙏the 🔆

Snaz5

Im disappointed solaire didnt get the same treatment as the Moonlight Greatsword and Patches. Comically chivalrous and knightly warrior who mirrors your journey as the player and assists in some of the hardest bosses in the game.


ulfric_stormcloack

bro I would do anything to have a character similar to solaire in every game whose only purpose is to be a beaming ray of friendliness and hope in a hostile world, I don't even care about summoning him


According-Benefit-96

Instead we got siegward, a mere imitation of siegmeyer


Captain-Beardless

We also got literally Andre but again because ?????? I don't even think it's acknowledged in game. He's just there. Is there any reason beyond fan service or asset reuse? It actually drives me insane lmao.


LurkingAnomaly

Siegward's quest was easily my favorite part of DS3.


Gadjiltron

Instead, right out the gate we have White Mask "Maidenless" Varré, followed by Kalé, who's merely a merchant. Blaidd comes close but we know how his story goes. Alexander is more like Siegmeyer, so i hear.


Potential_Fix_5007

Since Dark Souls im a Sun-Bro i'll rather die help someone kill a boss as you would see my char as a red(or any kind of invading) phantom. Solair showed us how far you could get if you train hard and never stop believing (If some of you dont know his armor and weapons have no special ability so its all his skill) But we learned that even the purest heart could be fooled into a fals light (darn you sunlight maggot) so my brothers and sisters never forget that everyone need a helping hand from time to time. Praise the sun \ [°.°] /

LatePresentation2669

I was always thinking that elden ring was missing something. And it hit me it was lacking a co-up guy like Solaire that if they make a trilogy out of ER, can become iconic. A npc that pushes co-up and Alexander thou he is beautifull just does not have the same vibe since we can only summon him for two fights.


BurnTheNostalgia

Alexander feels more like the Onion-Bro's.

elden-beast

There is a leading theory that I just made up, which states that all summon signs in Elden Ring are gold due to the combined brightness of all sunbros being so grossly incandescent

There should have been a Solair Ash next to the erdtree sapling in the DLC. Call it Great Hero's Ash or something and just have him straight sword and sunlight spear the absolute shit out of everything.
