What does no horse ahead mean?

[N o d L]

I like reading signs on the ground but no horse ahead is very common, I'm in a random cave right now and still saw a sign saying that so starting to doubt it doesn't mean Torrent

Doesnt mean aqnything specific.

Its just a user message that more often then not is a lie.

[Basarab Laiota]

its a chinese joke
"horse" and "mother" are the same word in their language
basically it's saying "the person who put a message down infront of me is lying and is a motherless *****" or something like that, i guess

That you have to horse around

There's a couple sections where the larger hitbox and slow starting/stopping makes it a LOT more dangerous to be on horseback as well (e.g. Divine Tower of Caelid exterior), the double jump safety net helps offset it but it's not gonna work 100% of the time

it makes sense if you are Chinese

[Vinnolo]

it means their mom went to the sky

[echo_ML]

It means no horsin' around. Stop goofing off OP!

[mpcgannon]

If it's posted in a clear no horse zone, I interpreted as "could really use double jump here."

[Paul Woods]

thought horse was suppose to mean who and res

[FreshlyGrilledPanic]

it means there is probably a dog ahead

[Madao]

is Torrent a horse or a weird looking goat

it means you should disable online messages because they are either lies, spoilers or bottom-tier humor and all-in-all a huge waste of time, and it has been since Demon's Souls. Alas, humanity has not improved since then.

Actually, people leaving those messages are trying to be helpful. "No horse ahead" is a joke among chinese users, because horse and mother sound similar. It's basically like saying "motherless behaviour ahead", aka "the person who left the message in front of me is a liar and a rat bastard". If you ever see "no horse ahead" just interpret it the same as "liar ahead". It's telling you not to trust the message in front of you that's encouraging you to jump off a cliff or claiming a random wall is a hidden path.

In Chinese, horse pronouces similar like mother. And it's an evil curse to say someone's mother is gone in Chinese tradition. (Yes, MOTHER suffers a lot of curses in games. lol) It means the one who left the message is a liar and don't believe an orphan's words, mostly in Soul Games.
