I love how the music in the first phase goes "aww, listen to the sad choirs, aren't you feeling pity for whom you fight?" Like Sif in Dark souls 1 so the player think "Ok, this is the kind of boss that, as his health goes down, will become much weaker and will make me feel bad for slaying it, got it!", and then the second phase start, he sprouts wings, attacks much faster and in a completely erratical manner, can call lightning to cover the whole map, and the music suddenly become much more frantic, with psycho strings, as if Tsukasa Saitoh was saying "Surprise, mothafuckah!"

For something that just crawled out of it's dead mother's womb , this thing sure can fight

[@IronianKnight]

Well, I suppose it is basically a god baby, in a strictly Lovecraftian sense of "god." It's sort of like fighting the husk of Gwyn in Dark Souls (without parrying)... a challenge, to be sure. Now just imagine what they'd be at their full strength... It's a running theme of the entire soulsborne amalgamation. We are but parasites running through a dead world. Our battles are in earnest and amongst our kind it is a great endeavor, but the truth is that we feed on the congealing blood, the embers, the ashes, the dark after the light. We are the harbingers of what comes next, after all the legends are dead.

[@ethanchildress5871]

The weirdest thing for me was that it looked fully grown straight out of the womb.

[@IronianKnight]

+Ethan Targett Well, it's fully grown for a human. This is not a human though, in fact it's a being of a race known for its members each being completely unique. So the Orphan could look nothing like that come maturity, or it could be almost there already, as you're saying. There's just no way to know, no point of reference to differ to

[@ShatposterSupreme]

IronianKnight A bit late to say this, but, I want to put my own opinion in. Kos, as we see here, is dead, but dead by what? No Great One would dare attack it of they knew what ungodly abomination would come out of it. So, the answer is the Hunters, the humans. Humans were killing all the Great Ones, as we've seen and possibly done with Mergo, Ebreitas, Rom, the Amygdalas, and the Moon Presence. So, Kos's answer? Male her next kin of sheer hatred, make it the apex predator, make it a Hunter itself. This is basically Kos flipping humanity as a whole the middle tentacle. Saying that they are the true monsters of this story, not the Great Ones.

[@poego6045]

There's a theory that Kos is innately dead. Like, as in she's sort of a corpse god, floating on the water and dangling threads into yharnam that seep into people's brains (you can see Yharnam in the sea of that area). I honestly like that a little better in terms of concept. Sounds more interesting than "bunch of hicks harpooned a literal god to death".

[@quixoticfiend9274]

I like how in the lore the best hunters are trained, people taught over time to fight the beasts. But then you, some random foreigner, come along with a varying array of experience (veteran, troubled childhood, sole survivor etc. for experience, Milquetoast/WoS/Scion etc. for little to no experience). You, the Hunter, are the one that not only kills (almost) all the other Hunters left in the Night of the Hunt, the one that slays the biggest Beasts, kills Great Old Ones, and becomes a God. All because some weird little white dude gave you a stick and gun after you died to some creepy ass werewolf. Or snapped your fingers at a lamp.

This fight managed to disturb me in a way that no other in the souls series ever has. The fact that the orphan was just experiencing the world for the first time, and was given only seconds to take it all in before being forced to fight for his life is messed up. The way it yelps and squawks and flails around is bone chilling because it makes perfect sense.

[@jj0493]

Zack Smith I mean at the start of the fight he just sits their and looking miserably up at the moon. He only starts attacking when you approach him with a giant flaming sword. Also one theory is that this dream world was created not only to punish the hunters but also as a kind of safe space for the orphan. In the real world he might have been kidnapped and experimented on by people wearing similar clothes to you.

Gerry Buckets heh, me too, I almost deleted DS2 after two hours into it, but decided to keep playing it a bit more.... Best decision ever! I went from serious skeptic of the series to a new, hardcore fan 😁 Souls games just have everything I like in a game, they're close to perfection

[@wallacesousuke1433]

Gerry Buckets yes! Same here! At first it may be frustrating, like you start in a place with no signs, map or anything indicating where you should go.. Then there's the combat, I had no idea when to dodge properly nor about the importance of using shield and watch out for the stamina bar.. Sometimes I would think that either my controller or the game itself were broken becaise sometimes I'd try to swing the sword at an enemy and my character simply wouldn't move at all.. Lol only later on I'd started figuring thinga out, especially during the Pursuer fight, when I finally equipped a shield and begun getting the gist of how stamina and dodging work. From then on, my love of DS started growing to the same level as my love of Metroid, Castlevania and other favorite franchises! Like you said, the game doesn't hold your hand or spoonfeed you with silly tutorials and clues. Every single battle is brutal and risky, and this prevents the game from getting boring to me! The vast number of weapons, shields, armors, rings, each of which having its purposes, strong and weak points, just like the enemies have weakness against a type of attribute, in addition to the interconnected locations with varying landscapes, overall design and traps, makes it seem like you are playing several games in one! You're stuck in a place/boss? No problem, take a different route, grind for more souls, find/upgrade new weapons and come back later when you're more confident and powerful, prepared to tackle the boss you're stuck on! Currently I'm stuck at the spider boss, so I decided to go back and went down the Gutter, beat the Rotten boss, then headed to Harvest Valley, beat the 3 Skull bosses, then I beat the Baneful Queen, had access to the Iron Keep, got my ass beaten, ran to the Drangleic castle, got my ass beaten again lol. So, there it is, 3 different routes to go through, which I can easily choose which one to go at any time I want, very very cool experience.. I still shake my head at how I missed out this great franchise for so long due to ignorance and prejudice of DS games.. Always dismissed them as dumb, boring RPGs..

There's something about this that... It resonates with "Horror genre done right." Indeed, the emergence of the orphan is visceral, disgusting even... But what's disturbing is the concept, the vagueness. It emerges, looking at the sky, weeping. It attacks, screaming what sound like desperate and painful screams as a solemn and angelic melody plays in the background. It's been a long time since i've been able to find something to associate horror and beauty together.

I love the idea that the Orphan is an Old One's attempt to understand humanity, by giving birth to a rough approximation of one.... or at least how it experiences it.

I’m seeing that a lot of people here feel bad for killing Orphan, but I want to point out that your actually kind of doing him a favor by killing him. Orphan of Kos is stuck in the hunter’s nightmare just like Ludwig and Maria are, trapped within the body of his dead mother. Hence when you kill him, the line “Sweet child of Kos, returned to the sea.” Your finally letting him return to the cosmos to be with his mother, and thus fixing the old hunters deeds and ending the nightmare.

By the time the DLC came out I was around NG+7 (I don't remember which NG+ I was at, but definitely where they cap the difficulty), and dear god I bit off more than I could chew. His attacks are so ridiculously hard to dodge, he is relentless with his attacks, it took me at least 100 tries before I beat this guy solo and let me tell you it was one of the proudest moments I ever had playing a video game.

Fun fact: Gehrman and the Orphan both use the same sobbing sound, and the Doll even tells you that Gehrman is a bit more at ease with himself after you kill the Orphan. This has interesting and terrifying implications.

[@dinorex3464]

The sobbing is merely a reused asset, the fact Gehrman is at ease after you kill Orphan is because his actions at the Fishing Hamlet have been haunting him since and knowing every Hunter (including himself) is now free from Kos' curse of course gives him peace.

Even now whenever I boot up a new game of Bloodborne, this is a boss that I do not *want* to fight. Not because it's hard, but because of how utterly distressed it makes me feel to just be in its presence. The fact that hunters like the player, in our lust for blood and knowledge, created such a cruel and tortured entity is a terrifying reminder of the horrors brought on not just by the nightmares of the Cosmos, but of the ones created by humanity itself. The only solace this fight brings me is knowing that I can bring its suffering to an end. After all, the one good thing a hunter can do is kill a few beasts. It's just what hunters do.
