Dark Souls - What happens if you kill Ornstein and Smough at the same time?

I owe an additional special thanks to thefifthmatt, who was also partly responsible for the snippet of DarkScript shown in the video. That's not the raw code, it's been compiled in a more accessible manner thanks to Matt's work.

"what if we made ornstein faster?" i have nightmares now.

So Super Ornstein is canon and Super Smough is fanfiction.

Smough is slower, yet he dies faster. Ornstein is faster, yet he dies slowly. Ironic...

Clever idea for a video, and the perfect person to make it!

Funny story about this actually, on my first ever playthrough of Dark Souls, I fought these guys a few times and would usually end up dying on the second phase, so I tested myself if I could skip the second phase by killing them both at the same time. I was using a claymore and the swing was wide enough with a 1H attack, just had to lower them both down to low enough then swing at the right time to hit them both. I thought I had outsmarted the system so hard doing this, but alas it didn't work and I got my ass kicked anyways lol. The good ol' days of Dark Souls.

Now do this with DS3's Demon Princes and see who gets to be the new demon king

Ornstein is the intended second phase confirmed lol

Very nice!! I remember working on doing this a long time ago, but I had some coding knowledge so I assumed something like this was the case. Very cool to see the details laid out!

Super Ornstein: "I am... inevitable."

Were you expecting Elden Ring to be the secret boss?

I actually expected this to be several years old when I saw it in my recommendations, but I guess no one has tested this (and made a video on it) until now, almost 10 years post-release

this music in background gives me conniptions

Viewers: wait, its all Ornstein? Zullie: always has been.

i still can't believe people are still experimenting with the game, it's a nice cozy community in here.

The "layman" programming simplifications (both stages of it) are really really cool.

The music in the background is just beautiful. One of the best tracks in the soulsborne series. Can't wait to play the Demon's Souls Remake so that I can listen to this gem non-stop...wait...something isn't right...

This makes me think even more that super smough was added later in development, the intended phase 2 was super ornstein If we look at it , super smough is just smough but with lighting damage while in super ornstein the fight change a lot and he also gains new attacks thats why I think it was the intended fight

the biggest shock for me is Dark souls is coded in English

Zullie, you are an absolute godsend. Showing all three levels of the code like that, raw, simplified, and more simplified, really nice touch for people at varying depths of knowledge on coding. This was really nice. I always enjoy your videos and appreciate the content.
