    I will always have a special attachment to this boss fight. I was in the middle of the 3rd stage of this fight when i discovered my house was on fire. Now every time i watch this fight, i think only of my old house, now burnt. The last thing i ever did in that house was this boss fight. True story

    Just realised that Ariandel only reacted after you "killed" Friede because Friede told him to cover his eyes.
    He didn't see you fight Friede and, since there was no sound of fighting anymore, started peeking hoping that she had won only to see her dying on the floor.
    That's why he didn't intervene sooner.

    But after that scream, oh man after that scream
    He goes from a twisted human to an inhuman monster in seconds, all because of that bone chilling scream, and his erratic, jerky movements, not to mention the continued shrieking.

      That animation has been around since Dark Souls 1, Fromsoft just rarely uses it. It was used with bosses and enemies with ridiculously strong hits that could still be blocked.
      The only three I remember are:
      The Taurus Demon enemies from DS1, all their hits forced you into that animation making it hard to tank them because you kept being forced to back up.
      Kalameet's flying charge knocked you back like that, with not a lot of stamina cost.
      Sinh the Slumbering Dragon has the same flying charge with the animation as well.

    Honestly my favorite boss in the series. The gentle intent of snuffing you out in phase one. To the combined rage of Soup Man. Then finally he sacrifices everything to resurrect her one last time. Friede in a final effort tries every maneuver she has known to stop you, combined with the rage of her now dead father. Absolutely beautiful fight. Soup man was to me worse then Phase Three just because I was on New Game Plus Two, and his damage was massive. Amazing fight though, almost makes dying in it a gift to play it again.
    Edit: I'm currently making a game, and I will surely have a boss equal to this. This fight is too fun to pass on. I am currently writing lore on this right now. Also thank you to whoever read my rambling this far. I'm grateful that some would take time out just to read my weird comments. ❤

Someone said the Hollowslayer Greatsword worked well on her. I was able to beat her 2nd try with that and Gael phantom's help. Gael was finally able to last the whole fight, we got Friede trapped against the wall and gang-banged her with stunlocks. May have been luck, because Gael is usually dead before 3rd fight, but Hollowslayer seemed to work.

    I have never played any of the Dark Souls games but I can tell these are ridiculously difficult boss fights. Watching these Souls boss fights, the likes of The Orphan of Kos, Nameless King, Sister Friede, etc. feels nothing less than enjoying art. It feels all the more beautiful when you know that beating these bosses was so damn hard. Add to it the amazing characters that these bosses are and the all the beautiful soundtracks playing in the BG.
    Souls games are pure art.

I have genuine respect for some bosses due to the sheer amount of stress they put me through during my first encounters with them. Only makes me want more bosses to learn the movesets of. hoping elden ring has this level of skill and character.

    For me definitely in the top 5 of Souls (only dark, haven't played DeS or BB) bosses.
    Everything about this boss is so cool.
    First phase is like getting to know her movement, not too hard if you learn her attack patterns
    Second phase is a GOOD gankfight - nearly impossible to achieve, but they did it.
    and third phase is like "get rekt m8". It's really the most challenging part and you better have some Estus left

      I mean, the camera lock is there for you to actively focus enemies. So enemies that actively make an effort to ambush you unlock the camera. I think that makes sense. You'd have to look around as a person as well, if your opponent randomnly teleported away. I have no issue with that.

      Well, its not him "sacrificing his flame" . In the painted world of ariandel, the flame would be used to burn the world once it starts to rot, so a new world could be painted.
      But father ariandel and sister friede wanted to keep the world, reguardless of the rot. Ariandel was using his own blood to keep the flame low, to quench it so it would never burn his world, which is why he asks for his flail.
      He knows his daughter is ash like we are, and knows the power of the flame can bring her back. So, he sacrifices his world by fanning the flame back to full strength, and unleashing its power, all so he can bring hsi daughter back.
      He sacrifices a world that he was harming himself to keep, all for his daughter.
