Heilde knights vs black knights

[Hello darkness]

I can`t avoid the feeling that the heide knights in ds2 are like the black knights in ds1. What do you think, guys?

They have that aura of "i'm gonna beat your ass to death in the coolest way, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥", they are pretty tough, have an interesting set of weapons and armor to obtain, and are scatered across the land. The great difference is they usually ignore you, sitting there, lost in their deep "what the ♥♥♥♥ i'm gonna do without my kingdom" thoughts, chilling for all eternity

They're still weak, a rapier can break the poise without stone ring.

Except that as soon as you press the attack button the AI counterattacks it.

I wouldnt compare heide knights to black knights.
if anything that comparison is better made with the loyce knights and the DS1 Silver/Black Knights.
If you had to relate them, I'd consider heide knights the fraternal twin that got the quick reactions from dad and mom's dexterity.
just saiyan.

I'm going with Vinyl here. The Loyce Knights are essentially Black Knight, v2.0 lorewise. They followed their king to fight the Chaos and got roasted.
In terms of gameplay, the Heide Knights are almost nothing like the Black Knights. In DS1, Black Knights would routinely whup me left and right for a good, long while. DS2, I killed my first Heide Knight taking next to no damage. The difficulty just isn't there.

Heide is...well, just a brighter place, and home of the blues, it's not like Anor Londo.

I remember when i first found a black knight in Undead Burg. "Holy SHHHH what is that, it's not like the other undead soldiers. OMG there's no way i'm fightin... IT killed me."

Good to know. Not seen a loyce knightn yet ingame, but what i'm seeing in google is that they must have the most beautiful neck
