I'm pretty sure in the lore it says smough wanted to be in the Knights of gwyn but he was so brutal and cannibalistic he couldn't make the cut I think smough is jealous of orensteins title, so without even checking if he's alive crushes ornstien to bits. Hell, he even laughs while doing it.
Cam gwyn had 4 knights, artorias the wolf, ciaran the hornet, ornstein the lion and gough the eagle. So gough was with gwyn and it was loyal till the end
Wasn t that hard, there are a lot more difficult bosses in souls games. This guy plays it terrible and still manages to win, even tho he facetanks so many hits for 0 reason and fails at dodgeing 24/7 cuz he panic roles. They re so slow and have predicable moveset, just get good when u struggle. should be super easy after u died 2-3 times, then u know how the fight works.
@Sewer Inhabitor ive played through dark souls maybe twice so far and ive only been killed by them once,it really is not a hard fight,but a really fun one imo
@@lolno8406 unless you’ve achieved something in real life, don’t try to be an asshole about a game. Every boss is different for everyone. So shut it and go outside and learn how to talk to people.
Was never a fan of giant Ornstein. I feel like he should always be light and elegant. That aside Ornstein is my absolute favorite dark souls character.
A boss fight should always strive to be difficult, but never unfair. Here, they did that amazingly along with the other things they did just so god damn well
I played this fight after playing elden ring and it was pretty fun and challenging, no need for summons tho, if you keep trying you’ll get it sooner or later.
Yeah, basically all the instruments were actually played but they were purchased in a sample pack and re-arranged via a audio platform. So this is all sampled instruments relayed over each other. It's still a great soundtrack, don't get me wrong, but it being played by living humans just adds a certain... crunch I suppose, to it.
@lightning crashes an old mother dies It's honestly pretty easy to avoid if you understand the timing (Or hide behind the columns), it's kinda annoying when you are running away to heal but not that much of an issue imo
No, Smough started his dodge animation so you saw amazing invincibility frames. Although there are many problems with hitboxes in remaster, just not in this case.
"Smough, where is the goddess?" "Don't you see? Gwyndolin made her with an illussion" "Then where's the real one?" "I'll go get her" * crosses to the chamber to find great chest ahead and realises it isn't real * "I see the problem..." "Oh do ya?!"

I have well over 500 hours in Dark Souls and played through it many times. But entering the O&S Arena and hearing the soundtrack always makes my skin crawl and my heart beat a little faster. In my opinion one of the best boss fights in any game ever.

Man fuck these guys. The clunky ass movement and bullshit hit boxes makes fighting two bosses incredibly unfair and frustrating. Then of course there's a shitty ass second phase

@@DoctahToboggan69Disagreed. This guy in the video plays like ass, but this fight was never unfairly clunky nor is it so easy to the point of being a joke. Out of all Duo bosses this is still the best, with the Demon Prince being a close second. After you fight Foreskin Duo in Faram Azula, you'll get what I mean.
I haven't gotten this far in DS1 yet. If Solaire dies in a summoned fight, is he dead forever, or can you just resummon him the next time you make a run at the boss?

I noticed recently that this fight has a subtle hint of dark sun Gwendolyn having most everyone as illusions. In dark souls 3 we know Ornstein had already left anor londo I'm search of the nameless king, and that smough was the last to remain on guard there. During the fight, if you kill Ornstein first, smough slams his hammer into him to power up, and Ornstein disappears while if smough dies first ornstein powers up but smoughs body is still there, indicating that Ornstein was a phantom cast by gwenevere as his body disappears when killed.
It's possible that these are not the real knights. But I question that as you are able to obtain the armor of one of them after this fight. Compared to gwynevere who disappears after a single hit, these would be unusual and inconsistent for an illusion. Only way I could chalk up ornsteins remains is him surviving this fight. He couldn't have had his armor here and there at the same time. Smough I assumed did not survive. As his armor is stashed away in the manor. Did ornsteins survive being smashed by his comrade?
Also after killing gwynevere have you noticed all the sentinels and that silver knight on the left heading to the boss room disappears, so there's allot of evidence almost any living thing in anor londo other than gwyndolin is an illusion
While I LOVE Elden Ring ( more than Dark Souls now) yeah, I agree that none of the duo battles came even close to the original Orn and Smough . The only one that was a bit close the Godskin duo but these guys were more of an annoyance than enjoyment.
@@panoskamp4324 I wouldn't say "disgrace" per se , but definitely not up to them. They were far FAR worse duo battle in Elden Ring than the Godskin Duo.
Strakee I presume this is a joke, but if it’s not than his armor just makes him look fat. He’s not fat he’s just very muscular and the armor makes him look fat.
I just love how the bossfight starts by Ornstein slashing him with his spear, followed by Smough smashing him against the pillar... all of that just to recover the souls and heal up. Classic Dark Souls :D
Yuukei That's the design. Ornstein is more apt to be in your face throughout phase 1 so many players are likely end up killing him first. You can even see that in this video. Shirakko's no noob, but even though he was almost exclusively targeting Smough, Ornstein got hit by a few fireballs. Then in phase 2 it's clear why Ornstein is harder to deal with, Smough only really gets additional lightning to his butt slam, whereas Ornstein gets said lightning butt slam, and grows as big as Smough, and generally retains his aforementioned aggressiveness.
solaire was so helpful during this fight, almost TOO helpful, i was trying to kill smough first, but he was hard targeting ornstein, it was like he was trying to race me to see which one we could kill first
Surely the hardest my first time around, took me some 70 or 80 attempts, and around 10 hours total game time just doing attempts. On further new game cycles I beat them usually 1st or 2nd try... Although I've also beaten Manus first try on NG+ I would say he is the hardest boss for me personally because of how unprepared I was. I did have 20 estus but I didn't know any of his moves and almost every attack I was getting hit, including the dark magic. I actually ran out of estus and consumed about 5 humanity to heal through the rest of the fight. I eventually got him down while being on a sliver of HP. It was the most harrowing fight ever because I knew the stakes were high. On my first O&S attempt I died in like the first 2 attacks, I didn't even get a single hit off, and the other attempts weren't that much better, I just kept chipping away at their HP until by attempt 20 or so I was on the 2nd phase.
Remember that crystal halberd you got from killing the mimic? Unless your weapons have been upgraded to +10 or something, i reccomend you use that, it takes away their HP pretty fast especially ornstein and remember to summon solaire, he'll make this fight a lot easier for you but you have to kill the giant sentinels outside the boss room first, otherwise they would take away half of solaire's hp (fight them one by one)
To hell with these current soulsborne bosses with a thousand combos and different stages, this feeling of weight of dks1 armor is indescribable until this day, Smough running in the arena and you can 'feel' the whole environment shaking; this fight is epic, unforgettable. I miss those heavier and simplified dks1 combats, every move was calculated so as not to zero your stamina and that's all you had to care about.
Yea. I fuckin loved Elden Ring and Ds3, but i noticed that in those two games, especially the first one mentioned, i almost never looked forward to bosses. It was all about the world surrounding them, and the mini-boss/mob icons (black knights, silver knights, crystal lizards, outrider knights, armored lions etc.).
@@mikeyswift2010 Most elden ring bosses are good. problem is there is a number of them that are just objectively not fun. theres a difference between actual difficulty (ornstein and smough) and bullshit "difficulty" (Godskin Duo, Fire Giant)
I always keep thinking about how Ornstein would have been an amazing boss 1v1. Ai and health like Artorias and voila. I feel like he deserves to be as difficult as Artorias since he is the captain of the Knights.
One thing I like about the remaster is how fire and lightning look now , but the light system is kinda meh , looks better at certain places and noticeably worse at others
Once we got the ability to render individual character's fingers, we've been suffering from diminishing returns. "Graphics" just doesn't mean anything valuable anymore. The level of detail that the newest game has today isn't much more advanced than the latest game that came out ten years ago.
Solaire with the Bell Gargoyles: - Tank. - Overpowered. - Deals most of the damage. Solaire with Ornstein & Smough: - Thinks he is a tank, even if he is not. - Deals normal damage. - Uses lighting against fucking Ornstein. - Dies.
when I tried to kill smough first in New game + solaire was fighting ornstein and I fought smough and almost everytime he fucking killed ornstein so fast that I couldnt even bring smough to half his life. But in Phase 2 he died instantly even with full health
It’s crazy because Ornstein was once allied alongside the Nameless King as a dragon slayer. Then he teamed up with smough but when smough died to aldrich ornstein went to find the Nameless king but then I believe he died at archdragon peak because his armour can be found after the Nameless king boss fight.
Ornstein: gwyns most trusted knight and has earned an incredible reputation over his career as one of the four. Also ornstein: hehe me sit 4 times in a row
Bought the entire Souls series last month cause I've never played any of the Souls games before, and I've just made it to these two today and loved every moment of it and the game as a whole.
I defeated O&S for the first time today ( yes I started DS 1 RM a few days ago) and now I can understand why this Boss is so popular. Even though there are two Bosses, I never felt completely overwhelmed. There were always some situations where one of the 2 was alone. Awesome fight 😎💪
The most godly music I have heard in a game. But you are really getting handled here, doesn't seem like an optimum character build at all to tackle these two beasts.
Yeah, he made a lot of mistakes He let one of them out of his sight so many times I lost count. Entered the arena with only 10 estus Got greedy a few times. (this one's just my personal opinion) didn't seem to have humanity on the quick select as backup heal
Did anyone notice that the cutscene at the start only activates the first time you enter the boss arena but shirrako also picks up his humanity so that means he already lost to the anor londo duo
The way Ornstein and Smough work together and complement each other's weaknesses really makes you wanna root for them instead of the goofily-dressed maniac
Note to self: It is September 11th 2020. Pretty much 8 years ago to the day I stopped playing Dark Souls thanks to these two fine gentlemen. I had planned to try again the next day but never did. Let's see if I can finally beat them this year. Quarantine gave me the time and motivation. Good day Rudi.
@@m0beverythingk992 Yes, even twice including NG+ and Super Ornstein. I used the "Lock on with shield raised and slowly walk backwards the whole time" technique. Patience was the key.
I remember this boss fight literally had tears about to run down my face due to how mad they was getting me with that tag teaming shit lol. Damn I miss the Xbox 360 days 😔
My first run took me more than 100 tries to overcome this fight, at the end I was so into it that I won only receiving one hit, is funny that now is such an easy fight, but for newcomers is a nightmare.
Im playing ds for the first time and i beat them first try? I think i was overlevelled because by this point i had level 38 strength and a level 10 zweihander
Finally bought dark souls 1 since it’s on sale for half off til the 13th, and got to my most anticipated boss (and since it’s the first humanoid boss after 10 hours) took two attempts but I took the slow approach and fought phase two smough after I lost to bigger ornstein,love these two
When I was really little I watched my dad play this boss fight and it gave me the only nightmare I have remembered for my entire life and it wasn't even scary

He couldn't have had his armor here and there at the same time. Smough I assumed did not survive. As his armor is stashed away in the manor. Did ornsteins survive being smashed by his comrade?
Also after killing gwynevere have you noticed all the sentinels and that silver knight on the left heading to the boss room disappears, so there's allot of evidence almost any living thing in anor londo other than gwyndolin is an illusion
Well somehow Ornistein either is an illusion or survived this because he left Anor Londo to search for the nameless king
Only thing that leaves a whole in it is you getting Ornstein's Soul if you beat him last. Can souls be fabricated like that?
0:49 that theme tho
5:35 Luckiest and the most unluckiest Undead.
I like how Elden Ring tried to replicate this fight thousands of times; they all sucked.
Godskin Duo....F those guys
While I LOVE Elden Ring ( more than Dark Souls now) yeah, I agree that none of the duo battles came even close to the original Orn and Smough . The only one that was a bit close the Godskin duo but these guys were more of an annoyance than enjoyment.
@@Mil89GR the Godskin Duo is a DISGRACE to Ornstein and Smough's legacy.
@@panoskamp4324 I wouldn't say "disgrace" per se , but definitely not up to them. They were far FAR worse duo battle in Elden Ring than the Godskin Duo.
Touch grass
This is probably the most accurate scene to the quote, “This is getting out of hand, now there are two of them!”
What abomination is that fashion he's wearing
Crimson Robes
Strakee at least it's not full havel gear
Russell westbrook's fashion
Strakee The best kind.
Strakee I presume this is a joke, but if it’s not than his armor just makes him look fat. He’s not fat he’s just very muscular and the armor makes him look fat.
0:24, so I just need to get my souls back , and I'm good..... Ornstein: Heeaal Naw .
I just love how the bossfight starts by Ornstein slashing him with his spear, followed by Smough smashing him against the pillar... all of that just to recover the souls and heal up. Classic Dark Souls :D
Can relate😅😅😅
1:50 GET DOWN MR.PRESIDENT!!!
Dunkstein and Slamough: Origins
4:01 "REMASTERED"
mery noko he dashed on to a pillar...are you saying that he should have hit it? Lmao what is the problem
Gadin534 that was a charge up attack, to which he collided with the pole hitbox and cancelled it.
i think ornstein can jump,but hey,i just saw that in the video XD
This game has more bugs than Prepare to die edition lol
remaster my ass
that bug is in the original and PtDE. it's a remaster not a remake. only so much they can do running it on the same engine
I always feel like the battle would be more intense if you kill Smough, makes it more interesting honestly.
Yuukei gotta kill fatty 1st
Yep you gotta get the Leo Ring
havel twink you do know smough isn't fat right it's just his armor
alvi syahri Just try Smough's armor in DS3. You can be skinny like you want but once you wear it you become a fat guy
Yuukei That's the design. Ornstein is more apt to be in your face throughout phase 1 so many players are likely end up killing him first. You can even see that in this video. Shirakko's no noob, but even though he was almost exclusively targeting Smough, Ornstein got hit by a few fireballs.
Then in phase 2 it's clear why Ornstein is harder to deal with, Smough only really gets additional lightning to his butt slam, whereas Ornstein gets said lightning butt slam, and grows as big as Smough, and generally retains his aforementioned aggressiveness.
*Space jam starts playing*
PICKLE RIIIIICK!

Ornstein: Fiuuuu
HAAHHAHAAHAHAHHAAHAHAAHAHAH
Smough: prepare for trouble!
Ornstine: and make it double!

That timing tho!
Liam Vonz He protected his friend :'(
(could be a Gif )
that "boom" sound at 0:05 when it shows Smough is so badass and terrifying at the same time
solaire was so helpful during this fight, almost TOO helpful, i was trying to kill smough first, but he was hard targeting ornstein, it was like he was trying to race me to see which one we could kill first
One of the most iconic bosses in gaming history and one of the few duo fights that actually works well.
Sif: The saddest boss to kill.
These guys: The absolute hardest.
Surely the hardest my first time around, took me some 70 or 80 attempts, and around 10 hours total game time just doing attempts. On further new game cycles I beat them usually 1st or 2nd try... Although I've also beaten Manus first try on NG+ I would say he is the hardest boss for me personally because of how unprepared I was. I did have 20 estus but I didn't know any of his moves and almost every attack I was getting hit, including the dark magic. I actually ran out of estus and consumed about 5 humanity to heal through the rest of the fight. I eventually got him down while being on a sliver of HP. It was the most harrowing fight ever because I knew the stakes were high. On my first O&S attempt I died in like the first 2 attacks, I didn't even get a single hit off, and the other attempts weren't that much better, I just kept chipping away at their HP until by attempt 20 or so I was on the 2nd phase.

Chosen Undead: my precious souls, gotta take them back.
Ornstein: Bitch please.
Remember that crystal halberd you got from killing the mimic? Unless your weapons have been upgraded to +10 or something, i reccomend you use that, it takes away their HP pretty fast especially ornstein
and remember to summon solaire, he'll make this fight a lot easier for you
but you have to kill the giant sentinels outside the boss room first, otherwise they would take away half of solaire's hp (fight them one by one)
To hell with these current soulsborne bosses with a thousand combos and different stages, this feeling of weight of dks1 armor is indescribable until this day, Smough running in the arena and you can 'feel' the whole environment shaking; this fight is epic, unforgettable.
I miss those heavier and simplified dks1 combats, every move was calculated so as not to zero your stamina and that's all you had to care about.
Yea. I fuckin loved Elden Ring and Ds3, but i noticed that in those two games, especially the first one mentioned, i almost never looked forward to bosses. It was all about the world surrounding them, and the mini-boss/mob icons (black knights, silver knights, crystal lizards, outrider knights, armored lions etc.).
@@mikeyswift2010 Most elden ring bosses are good. problem is there is a number of them that are just objectively not fun. theres a difference between actual difficulty (ornstein and smough) and bullshit "difficulty" (Godskin Duo, Fire Giant)
@RAYHAN REHEMA PUTRA raime, trone watcher & defender (I think)..
I always keep thinking about how Ornstein would have been an amazing boss 1v1. Ai and health like Artorias and voila. I feel like he deserves to be as difficult as Artorias since he is the captain of the Knights.
There is a fight with him in Dark Souls 2. Though it is not very hard.
One thing I like about the remaster is how fire and lightning look now , but the light system is kinda meh , looks better at certain places and noticeably worse at others
Once we got the ability to render individual character's fingers, we've been suffering from diminishing returns. "Graphics" just doesn't mean anything valuable anymore. The level of detail that the newest game has today isn't much more advanced than the latest game that came out ten years ago.
Thalanox Tell that to God of War or Witcher 3 on pc with max settings.
Sycotic Forever Or DS3 lol.
These boss’s are smart first objective: Make sure player does not get souls back
I've been stuck on this boss fight for months, the music is stuck in my head
Everyone was stuck on this boss.
It took me 53 trys to beat them the first time i played this game.^^
Solaire with the Bell Gargoyles:
- Tank.
- Overpowered.
- Deals most of the damage.
Solaire with Ornstein & Smough:
- Thinks he is a tank, even if he is not.
- Deals normal damage.
- Uses lighting against fucking Ornstein.
- Dies.
Still makes the boss a lot easier but i think everyone should fight them solo they are designed so and perfectly at that
Well solaire in NG making alot of damage to the boss tho
I trying to kill smough while solairr make oisnter health lost so fast :v
when I tried to kill smough first in New game + solaire was fighting ornstein and I fought smough and almost everytime he fucking killed ornstein so fast that I couldnt even bring smough to half his life. But in Phase 2 he died instantly even with full health
@@officertenpenny9792 i find this fight alot easier without Solaire tho
At least their took lesson
and in Dark Souls 3 most npc are usefull in their intended boss fight
It’s crazy because Ornstein was once allied alongside the Nameless King as a dragon slayer. Then he teamed up with smough but when smough died to aldrich ornstein went to find the Nameless king but then I believe he died at archdragon peak because his armour can be found after the Nameless king boss fight.
Ornstein: gwyns most trusted knight and has earned an incredible reputation over his career as one of the four.
Also ornstein: hehe me sit 4 times in a row
I thought Artorias was Gwyns most trusted knight.
@@orb9760 Ornstein is the leader of the four knights

"Ay yo hol up gotta get my sou-"
*NO*
I changed the comment so u don't know how I got likes
Lol
Best comment
Smough: Oh nooooooooo
Ornstein: I'm not letting you die
And what thanks does Ornstein get? He gets crushed by Smough's hammer when the player kills him first
this is one of those memes that just make me close my eyes and smile because it's just dumb lmao
Bought the entire Souls series last month cause I've never played any of the Souls games before, and I've just made it to these two today and loved every moment of it and the game as a whole.
It is easily the best DS fight
@@vivaldireal1741 couldn't agree more
Doing the same right now. Got them in my third try. Really good boss and really excited to continue playing.
Everyone talking about 1:50 ,but no one talks about 2:55
Same bro
Ornstein-the kind of guy who'd cry after a funeral
Smough-the kind of guy to hit on the widow during the funeral
Correction, who would hit the widow.
Claudiu-Mihai Puiu HA HA
Smough actually hits the deceased in this case
Smough would eat the deceased, that’s kinda his thing.
Still one of the best fights in the entire franchise! This fight opened an era in soulsgames
Is it me or i heard smough laughing/mumbling?
Seems the rumors were true
They looks so much more detailed now. I love it.
nope, the lighting is way better, BUT it not justifie a $40 price
Barely...
HayaMark Creations I mean the floor looks better ish 😉
looks exactly the same to me, except they arent as yellow now
Nicolhime change youtubes resolution, because it's definitely more detail.
I was today years old when I found out smough has a laughing sound and that it is actually used during the fight
02:56
Smough: Uh-oh!
Ornstein: I've got your back!
#teamwork
Their armors looks a lot more rusty here
Scout Relic i missed you scout relic
Makes sense if they’ve been guarding that area for gods no how long, this story is about there age of fire coming to an end,
Just Smough as Ornstein is an illusion created by Lord Gwyndolin, he is just as Gwenevere.
Butcaru Hristu That's the real Smough, only Ornstein and Gwynevere are allusions.
It can be as you also find Smough armor in dark souls 3
I defeated O&S for the first time today ( yes I started DS 1 RM a few days ago) and now I can understand why this Boss is so popular. Even though there are two Bosses, I never felt completely overwhelmed. There were always some situations where one of the 2 was alone. Awesome fight 😎💪
Now play DS2 and have fun with the Belfry Gargoyles. It's the fairest boss fight in the series, trust me bro
@@marcelovieira519 that was one of the hardest boss fight for me in that game lmao
0:00 now thats an intro
1:49 can we talk about the absolute cinematic moment this is? Ornstein casually dashing to protect Smough from the fire spell
Man, this weird sounds is Smough laughter. It took me ages to figure this out.
Hands down the best boss fight in the game. Duo fights are always badass when FromSoft is behind the wheel.
Say the same thing to godskin duo in elden ring XD
@@mr.motionless7245 or any duo/trio boss fight in ER
@@obambagaming1467 or any duo fight ever because that’s just the nature of two on one
Honestly almost all duo fights that Fromsoft makes fucking sucks. They’re almost always tedious, they just caught lightning in a bottle twice in DS1
The most godly music I have heard in a game. But you are really getting handled here, doesn't seem like an optimum character build at all to tackle these two beasts.
Dark souls remastered, ornstein and smough boss fight 1080p, 60fps
Gets pwned first 3 seconds
Yeah, he made a lot of mistakes
He let one of them out of his sight so many times I lost count.
Entered the arena with only 10 estus
Got greedy a few times.
(this one's just my personal opinion) didn't seem to have humanity on the quick select as backup heal
Piotr Napora most importantly he rushed to get his souls back several times and got pwned for it. Such a classic rookie mistake.
Did anyone notice that the cutscene at the start only activates the first time you enter the boss arena but shirrako also picks up his humanity so that means he already lost to the anor londo duo
Huh... Clever editing I guess
in that first cutscene, the first few seconds of music gives me nostalgia for something that i don’t even know about
Now this is Fashion Souls at it’s finest.
3:40-Ornstein: Smough give me your power to smash this undead ant
Defeating these two was one of my greatest video game achievements.
I’ve seen the meme version so many times I kept expecting the music to break out into 🎵 “COME ON AND SLAM” 🎵 💀
I found myself talking to the screen as if I were playing.
The way Ornstein and Smough work together and complement each other's weaknesses really makes you wanna root for them instead of the goofily-dressed maniac
Ah, the memories of me dying...
What the Godskin duo should of been
Note to self: It is September 11th 2020. Pretty much 8 years ago to the day I stopped playing Dark Souls thanks to these two fine gentlemen. I had planned to try again the next day but never did. Let's see if I can finally beat them this year. Quarantine gave me the time and motivation. Good day Rudi.
Have you overcame it?
@@m0beverythingk992 Yes, even twice including NG+ and Super Ornstein. I used the "Lock on with shield raised and slowly walk backwards the whole time" technique. Patience was the key.
0:01
Me:ah shit here we go again *battle starts*
I remember this boss fight literally had tears about to run down my face due to how mad they was getting me with that tag teaming shit lol. Damn I miss the Xbox 360 days 😔
Q U A N well that's just sad.
Now u get to enjoy it on the ONE
They wuz
Ornstein eyes seem to have not adjusted in the remaster. I dont remember those dud spear attacks
My first run took me more than 100 tries to overcome this fight, at the end I was so into it that I won only receiving one hit, is funny that now is such an easy fight, but for newcomers is a nightmare.
First time I played the game it took me around 15 attempts
Im playing ds for the first time and i beat them first try? I think i was overlevelled because by this point i had level 38 strength and a level 10 zweihander
Finally bought dark souls 1 since it’s on sale for half off til the 13th, and got to my most anticipated boss (and since it’s the first humanoid boss after 10 hours) took two attempts but I took the slow approach and fought phase two smough after I lost to bigger ornstein,love these two
When I was really little I watched my dad play this boss fight and it gave me the only nightmare I have remembered for my entire life and it wasn't even scary
