I was watching this and I was thinking that they are quite a few instances in the game where I feel that it is just outright trolling me.
Not just being hard nor unfair; but outright trolling me.
This becomes significantly evident when playing the game in New Game+ where the enemy is so ridiculously powerful that they can one-hit-kill you with little difficulty.
But they are a lot of other moments in the game that really makes the presence of the trollface obvious
* Enemy projectiles can CURVE in mid-air to home in on you
Even though you are using the SAME weapon as they are, their version of the spell/arrow has homing ability to correct their trajectory in mid-air and hit you. This becomes mostly evident against the Silver Arrow Knight c*cksuckers at Anor Londo spamming you with the Dragon Bow - the most powerful bow in the game. Not to even mention the Bloathead Scorcerers in Oocile that can deal insane ammounts of damage with their projectile spell. Oh, and fuck the crystal archers in Dukes Archive too
* Enemy autoaims/glitchy hitboxes
Some enemies/bosses can autotrack you, which means that even if you dodge their attack they can WHILE swinging the weapon; autoadjust its swing so that it hits you anyway. This is particulary true to the behavior of some Dark Knights such as Rock Havel but also other bosses. It means that unless you are doing pixel-perfect timing when doding you are going to take a hit.
There's also some bosses who has some really peculiar hitboxes in the game. It means that even though you clearly manage to avoid its attack you are still going to take a hit. Ceaseless Discharge comes to mind; even if you manage to roll away serveral meters away from his tentacle
you are gonna get hit anyway and Ceaseless Discharge on top of that is one of the bosses in the game that can kill you in ONE hit.
* The Skeleton Dogs in Tombs of the Giants
They are the bane of my existence. These fuckers have a special attack that ignores both your shield and armor that one-hit kills you. Oh, and they use that special attack over and over and over again. The damage these fuckers output is larger than any boss in the game, oh and you are fighting SERVERAL of them... IN THE DARK WHERE YOU CAN'T SEE SHIT... AT ONCE... The troll is strong with this one
* Ornstein and Smough
'Nuff said.
Not only do you need to kill one of them, you will need to kill the other fucker that has enhanced strength and TWICE as much health as before, oh and they can one-shot you with ease.
People seem to think Knight Artorias is a bitch but I never had much difficulty with him nor Manus, nor with Blighttown except for the shitty framerate.
So, where do you think this game trolls you?
