After some consideration I think I may have to conclude that Wolnir is the worst fucking bossfight in the entire Souls series. How do I hate thee? Let me count the ways.
1) He's a huge, slow punching bag. He hardly does anything, but when he does do it, he's so big that it's almost impossible to tell. And believe me, I'm not locking on to this motherfucker.
2) Much of the fight is spent waiting until he puts his stupid arms in a place where you can attack them.
3) The fog that kills you has to be one of the worst pieces of visual feedback in the series. There's always some right underneath him but you can kind of stand in it? But then he does the big breath attack that covers way too much space and it's immediate death, pretty much. Yeah it has a huge wind-up but also I've just spent 30 seconds just waiting for him to put his damn arms in a place I can attack them leave me alone, you've all been killed by it too, don't lie.
4) He summons skeletons but they're just minor aggravations, usually he just kills them immediately, or sometimes he doesn't even get to that part if you get good RNG and his patterns are favorable.
5) Nothing about this fight is interesting, fun or an actual challenge. You get killed, you didn't learn shit. you beat him, gg, thanks for the good RNG. Whenever I beat him he usually doesn't even get his damn sword out.
I fucking hate Wolnir. He sucks, he's boring, he's cheap, and dumb. I've killed him 4 or 5 times but I always die to him at least once for some stupid shitty reason. Yeah, Bed of Chaos sucks, but you know what, at least it's reliable. I can do that shit in one almost every time. Wolnir doesn't even have that going for him.
