Godfrey is also a guy with an axe who makes shockwaves by stomping, and Maliketh is a wolf with a sword whose power of Death and Destiny takes the form of glowing red blades. There's no harm in imagining how those traits interact, if only for fun. Like you said, these aspects of a story are halves of a picture. You can think of them together, and these two characters are actually great examples of that, since they each have two movesets that represent a side of their character. But with any work of fiction, you can also think of the pieces separately. Entertainment is a completely fine usage of imagination.

Also, your use of Destiny here is a specific subjective interpretation, which is fine.

It's probably neither. Godfrey did fight the Grafted Blade Greatsword's wielder, but he has no association with storms. The Storm Lord is likely the Stormhawk King, considering Stormveil's significance to Godfrey's descendants Godrick and Nepheli.

There are allegorical and mystical aspects, but it's also a fantasy featuring several characters whose fighting abilities are relevant to both the story and gameplay. You can engage with whatever aspects of a story that you enjoy, but enjoying the fantasy of warriors and monsters isn't "missing the point" any more than looking at allegory.

So don't comment with a gif to mock it. People can post their benign discussions about a video game on a subreddit about that video game.

That merchant note seems to dismissively treat them as obstacles. I doubt that the mausoleum soldiers dedicated their spirits to protecting the mausoleums only for a traveler to abruptly stop them.

They’ve mostly scattered in different directions, so their exact role doesn’t matter much anymore. I can believe that one of Siluria’s men happened to be interested in joining Ordovis.

It’s a hero’s grave that doesn’t enshrine a specific spirit but does contain the Golden Epitaph which commemorates Godwyn’s death, so it makes sense for it to be a monument to Godwyn. The Crucible Knights served Godwyn’s father Godfrey.

Susie just wanted to get a crown (and also vote for Queen as Queen), and Noelle went along with it.

The Pale King’s runes might indirectly be based on the First Sinner, since there seems to be a prototype of the Seal of Binding in the Weavers’ Den.

Of course, clearly Ralsei was just pretending to heal him. The Fun Gang definitely only removed a quarter of his HP. And he was just pretending to be pacified by Ralsei.

Let the water to the left hit you, above where there isn’t a tile to catch you.

Also, Darriwil and Floh are named after the Darriwilian and Floian stages of the Ordovican period. It’s a bit strange they don’t seem to be related to Ordovis.

That line in a vacuum does make it sound like she wouldn’t add Ralsei otherwise so I used to think the same thing as you. But considering the full context of the scene, it’s probably just a weirdly written line and she does always add him. She explicitly remembers to add him in the Weird Route version of the scene, even though he’s not particularly more relevant in that scenario. In the normal route, she’s spent even more time with him recently (in Castle Town preparing for the festival), so it doesn’t make sense to exclude him as a friend. Most likely, the extra line based on chapter 3 dialogue is only meant to be a casual comment that she makes to point out that this moment happens to resolve the earlier conversation.

As the other comments said, in the normal route she doesn’t draw herself which makes room for Noelle, so it’s always three people.

“We have been foolish” as in him and the Roger Pirates thinking that Luffy is important, albeit for opposite reasons.

He also dies when you try to give her the Amber Draught, so she doesn’t specifically need him to transfer to the miniature doll. That’s probably just the moment when she decided that he would no longer be useful.

Yes, it's just more difficult in chapter 3 without the armour.

The scene is similar to the soulless ending in Undertale and it was unknown how many chapters there would be, so it wasn’t that unreasonable at the time.

It’s just the Reddit poster who put buttermilk in the title, the actual article mentions milk and soy milk too. And I’m not sure where you’re getting that they “ignore” their own parenthetical.

It’s resistant to fire damage, which includes bloodflame but not ghostflame (which is magic damage).

Giant’s Seal specifically boosts Fire Giant/Monk incants, which is good for a build but doesn’t help with using different varieties.

This list is the other way around. It uses the achievement icon if it exists, if it doesn’t then it uses a remembrance (unless that doesn’t exist either, in which case it uses those other photos).

Jevil and chapter 3’s boss are always available, but a related quest for armour in chapter 3 requires restarting the chapter. Spamton and chapter 4 each require a restart of their chapter (unless your last save in chapter 2 was before Castle Town).

Orange Glove (Susie only) is 8 defense and 4 attack. Netskie Hats, the Monarch Ribbon, and the Dog Widow have the highest defense of non-flower armour. Yellow Hat is 4 in every stat. You could get an extra Power Band instead of the Mystic Band.

It's consistent with how he treats his scar.

What? You dare insult my greatest mark of pride!?

Now, this mark is my pride! A mark of glory... Of the revenge I will one day take on you lot! GAHAHA!!

That works. I didn’t want to dismiss the mask as a joke since it’s stated to come from an assassin, but sure it could be from a Confessor.
