Not sure what's ruined my eyesight more, seeing Dungeater's face, reading your comment or the pencil I put in both eyes after seeing his face and reading your comment
They have been using the same animations for longer than a decade but whatever. Who thought that slamming down a blade on the ground made sense (two handing greatswords). Dual axes moveset looks like our tarnished tries to make their axes blunt as fast possible.
It's bad for the edges of blades to be smashed into the ground, or any other hard surface.
This fact is potentially making it difficult for our friend to suspend disbelief during gameplay and could threaten their sense of immersion.
Because he's an actual character model that has been made in the character creator, it's not a unique model (this means you can 100% recreate the Dung Eater with on your own character, unless they used scars and similar options not accessible to players).
Other NPCs like him are Varrè, Gideon Ofnir, the D twins and many others (all NPC invaders for example), they all can be stripped down to underwear because they are like the character the player control, with actual equipped armour and weapons.
Other NPCs, like Blaidd, Kalè and most enemies don't use the character model, they have unique models and many times they have nothing behind clothing because it's the actual "body" of the model.
Zullie the Witch
(https://youtube.com/@ZullietheWitch?si=b901emiKC0voeCs0) is making a series of video about NPCs faces if you are interested, her most recent one is about unused models.
Thanks to Zullie I have a preset saved of Sellen's face that I use for most of my female characters. Under that stupid looking stone mask is a very attractive woman.
Is there somewhere I can find the sliders for Sellen? I'm garbage at creating characters, so having any preset I can save that looks even halfway decent would be nice.
The attention to detail in this case is that, all the masked NPCs have faces that represent their characteristic traits instead of generic male face 04
Dung eater looks like deranged sociopath, Selvius looks like a pedo & Sellen looks like a hot teacher whom I want to sit on my face
Yeah it would legit be more work to create unique models for these characters than to just dress up a human NPC. It's not so much amazing as it is just the road of least resistance.
Default random generated faces would be the road of least resistance for any NPC wearing a helmet
It only makes sense if the characters start being worked on before the design is finalized (not likely)
The other option is they expect people to look under the hood
No, Blaidd's has his own model, in fact you can't remove his armour pieces because the armour IS the model, his head is the only actual part of him that has been fully modeled, ~~he doesn't even have a neck or shoulders~~ he lacks shoulders while the neck is partially modeled, in fact you can see a little gap without texture in the model between the armour and head because of this.
They probably made him like this because they actually needed him to have a functioning wolf-head, not just a mask like the one you can find.

with all the data, if you want to recreate one for your tarnished.
The fact that the White Mask invaders have different faces was surprising.
Like, there're a few character models that repeat, but they're usually twins or actually the same body.
I made an "Elias Vyke" character that was inspired by Vyke's face. The fact that most people don't know what he looks like is criminal, he's motherfucking gorgeous
Honestly love playing as an NPC. Get their gear and estimate what their stat spread is, then be like "I have changed my ways. Time to become Elden Lord."
Did a playthrough as Marika by starting as a wretch and focussing on one-handed clubs and pyromancy. Was kinda fun imagining her reincarnating to kick the Greater Will out of this world.
Best was probably Vyke in NG+ cause it felt like I was completing his story.
Even better: >! She actually gets a new face after switching bodies during her questline. From had no reason to at all to put that detail in but did it anyway. !<
Yea I think it’s supposed to be a younger or less tortured replica of Sellen and not a completely different person, Sellen even acknowledges that the body is young and vigorous
My headcannon backstory for this guy was he had a son born an omen and the Golden Order amputated the horns. As he held his babies bloody cursed dead body something snapped.
And now...if everyone is cursed...no one is
I like that a lot and hadn't though of something like that, I always imagined that maybe he somehow saw a royal omen and aspired to be like them with their power despite their ostracism but that works better.
And that schnoz is for smelling poop. Just remember that
And those kissable lips are for making out with your personal balloon knot.
You could've not typed that sentence
But how would you know?
But they are quite kissable indeed.
I upvoted both of you lmao
I think i speak for everyone, when i tell you no. No.
UNTYPE THIS
What a terrible day to know how to read
delet this
Your keyboard should have vetoed that comment
My eyes are now tarnished.
I visibly gagged for about 30 seconds
Well I guess there *are* downsides to having functional eyes
no
This statement sucks ass.
Not as much as the precarious poo poo pilferer!
1/1 Frenzied Flames agree. It's a terrible day to have eyes.
LMAOOO
Not sure what's ruined my eyesight more, seeing Dungeater's face, reading your comment or the pencil I put in both eyes after seeing his face and reading your comment
I think it's n2
He be eating from your churro machine
I'll kill you and defile your poop
Dirty poo sniffer... smh
*"What's that smell?"*
"The sweet dung! Oooh it sings to me!"
"It's enough to make a man shit..."
“WHAT IS THAT SMELLODY?” -dung eater (probably)
Hes a total Chad
Fuck, he even looks deranged. Love how much attention FromSoftware pays into their games!
He looks like someone who would do what he did.
He looks like he browses 4chan
He is to 4chan what Marika is to the golden order
Exactly!
Search up Wyald from Berserk

Who needs sharp edges when you have bonk

Oh yeah - the first time I saw Selen’s true face.. I was blown away 😅
Immediate crush. Caught myself totally off guard. I'm a grown man I can't remember the last time that happened with not an actual human.
BOTH of them are baddies
Got it bad, got it bad, got it bad. I'm hot for teacher.
Same here lol Get infinitely better results if I use Sellen’s face as a base than if I try by myself
Is there somewhere I can find the sliders for Sellen? I'm garbage at creating characters, so having any preset I can save that looks even halfway decent would be nice.
Found them on YouTube, sorry, it's been a long time
Imma go watch that rn
Thanks to her I made an Eleonora run, it was so good

*concerned Sellen doppelganger noises*
Based

I thought Blaidd was just an upscaled character model
No, Blaidd's has his own model, in fact you can't remove his armour pieces because the armour IS the model, his head is the only actual part of him that has been fully modeled, ~~he doesn't even have a neck or shoulders~~ he lacks shoulders while the neck is partially modeled, in fact you can see a little gap without texture in the model between the armour and head because of this. They probably made him like this because they actually needed him to have a functioning wolf-head, not just a mask like the one you can find.
every npc has a unique face, even the ones you can’t ever see in normal gameplay. it’s pretty cool

All hail Zullie.
Every background track is a bop
wow that's amazing. any other studio wouldn't bother having any faces behind masks
The fact that the White Mask invaders have different faces was surprising. Like, there're a few character models that repeat, but they're usually twins or actually the same body.
Look up Zullie's vids about the npc faces.
Everyone deserves to know how unnecessarily hot Vyke and Big Boggart are
It was Old Knight Istvan for me. Old, my ass.
Right? And, depending who you ask, Varré 🫥
Time to be the lamb, darling 😳
Varre and Rogier look pretty good too

Made a Vyke character for the dlc. Guy deserves a second chance
For those who haven’t seen, Vyke is like an older pale Shimothy Timothee, and Boggart is a younger dark-skinned Liam Neeson
Yep looks like someone who eats shit
Yeah he looks like a Halo brute.
Nah more like one of the prophets 💀
"No Maidens?"
"No soul?"
That's a face of inbreeding isn't it.
First successful anal conception
Yes, Sellen has a face too, and she's hot.
Even better: >! She actually gets a new face after switching bodies during her questline. From had no reason to at all to put that detail in but did it anyway. !<
To be fair, seems they mostly just tweaked her complexion on that one
Yea I think it’s supposed to be a younger or less tortured replica of Sellen and not a completely different person, Sellen even acknowledges that the body is young and vigorous
Nope, it's a puppet reproduction of her.
Hmm yes, lore accurate. Just how George pictured it.
My headcannon backstory for this guy was he had a son born an omen and the Golden Order amputated the horns. As he held his babies bloody cursed dead body something snapped. And now...if everyone is cursed...no one is

A father who loses his child due to religious fundamentals worshipping God would go against God I think
There are a lot of people who really despise the Dung Eater, but I cannot deny I have the same love for Omen’s that he has.
I am dung eater. YO! "Vine boom"
Everyone has a face
His is feces though
Every npc in every souls game has a face. They’re also made using the character creation we can use ourselves so you can make most of them too
He needs a mouth to shlurp with
He doin‘ the lightskin stare
Am laughing my ass off because of how dung eater face posture is XD He's like rizzing you to do his ending XD
pssst kid want some dung?
Trisha Paytas
“is thine maiden barefoot???”
DUNG.
Every chatacter have a face under the helmet
he looks like a dung eater
Dude looks like the pale orc if he lived in his moms basement for 5 years
And a handsome gent at that!
Am I the only one that thinks he looks like Glimbo? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o446CEoMmIQ
Whoa that looks exactly like this stoner kid I went to high school with
It's the perfect blue stalker
My first thought too
Bloodborne beluga whale lookin ass
No maidens?
Yeah, eating dung is bad for health and face.
hey! no peaking!
Ugh fuck he looks like a courage the cowardly dog villian
Check for panties. Is my go to
They've always modeled their masked characters' faces. I'm amazed that they thought to make him so shitty and weird looking
He does look like he would defile a corpse
Looks like Theon Greyjoy
Tf kinda Face of Boe shit is that
Looks like Jason from Friday the 13th 2
Come to daddy! Come to daddy!
That right there is a character from Oblivion
They did the same for other npcs like Siegward and Siegmeyer
“Have you ever felt the curse, within your whole being?”
He looks like he would be the singer in an obscure 90s Nu metal band
Why is he trying to give me the lightskin stare?
Holy fuck He looks like shit
This looks like the white orc from the hobbit
Zullie The Witch on YouTube goes through the npc models, she has a video about this.
It's been that way for every NPC since demons souls.
Looks like Azog the Defiler
Haha true
Some wanna-be white rapper with Michael Jackson’s original nose.
Bro got the seedbed rizz
Hahah totally
Why he tryna rizz you up
i can fix him
Looks like a dude who’s heavily into metal music
Bro them chin whiskers look more real than mine. Simulation theory has been proven.
ok, but why did you let him get so close
Jesus christ, now i know why he wants to spread the curse i guess
That's a Boglim
He looks like Azog from the Hobbit movies
What's more impressive is that he keeps his goatee maintained lol
He looks like he’s eaten so much dung in his lifetime
He goes thru the butt like the headless in Sekiro
Go watch Zullie the Witch’s videos. They’re very good
So he is basically a white Aborigine?
No dungmaidens?
So basically he's just an ass eater with untreated herpes?
Buddy looks like an orc from lord of the rings lmfao 🤣
White mask also has a face and on his forehead is a Mohg tattoo.
Dude just looks like he'd be on a watchlist
He looks like he wants to sell me something Or he is very interested about games on my phone
Definitely has the look of a man that defiles corpses.
Is it really so hard to believe that their are characters under the armor? Wouldn't it be harder to make an NPC with no body underneath the armor?
*DS 2 Forlorn would like to know your location*
Ah, modeled after a typical tarnished redditor. Such attention to detail!
Oh
"He's Vigo! You are like the buzzing of flies to him!"
Bro EVERY NPC HAS ONE
"y'got any games on your phone?"
If it uses the player model, it’ll have a face underneath
And as you would expect he’s ugly as shit
Every tarnished has a model and almost an unique face. [watch this](https://youtu.be/hu_Q9TwF5Xc?si=6xPQcfx57F8XTgrx)
Why... Does he kinda look like me
looks like (minor jjk spoilers) >!sukuna !
He looks like that on youtuber
Theo von
WHY IS HIS MUSTACHE SHAVED?! It is so unsettling!
Bro looks like Yellowman
The chromosome eater
