'Please, avert thine eyes.'
It is actually so cute seeing Father Ariendal covering his eyes during 1st phase

[TheGamerApocalypse]

There still hasn’t been a moment in the series that matches the panic of discovering phase 3 black-flame for the first time. This is my favorite boss possibly in video game history.

Man I felt so bad fighting them the pain in the fathers scream desperately trying to bring her back to life man and the strength to rip those chains off the type of adrenaline fuelled rage I like to see in a game close second to Gael this one is

5:23 is probably one of the coldest shots in fromsoft's games. Over time they've really gotten good at cinematography in their games. Miyazaki loves his wide shots.

5:23 that’s some badassery right there

Her move set in the third phase is just stunning. She is so nimble, and each swing of her scythe is dramatic and deadly. It just looks so epic when she spirals up into the air and then slams down on you in an explosion of black flame. Spectacular boss design.

I remember this boss fight, took me literally days of play session to finally beat.
Easily my most memorable moment in this game.
Cool seeing it in 4K.

Black Flame Frieda is easily one of the top strongest lore-wise characters in the series, if not quite possibly, the 2nd strongest character in it, with the lowly slave knight surpassing her.

I love everything about this boss, learning to counter her invisibilty turns what seemed like an devistating move into her biggest weakness. The second phase is the best duo fight From has made since Orenstein and Smough. And the third phase is probably one of my favorite fast paced fights in the series, its a fight that seem so daunting and impossible at first yet after fighting her time and time again you learn each of her weaknesses and it becomes like a dance. S tier boss.

Can we just appreciate that little sliver of health at 2:40? Little guy really carried the fight.

[danielrobinson]

Ariandel had such love for Friede that forsook all of his suffering and dedication, allowing the flame to surge again just so she could be revived.

[redsol]

This boss fight takes on new meaning when you understand the lore, these lost souls long for the final winter so they can rest. They see you as the last ember to be smothered so the madness can finally end.

After finishing Elden Ring which I absolutly love, seeing this makes me relies that the ds3 bosses or at least a good few of them are some of the coolest experiences in games i ever had. <3

[marianvalkyrie]

Still my personal favorite boss fight in all Souls games. I love the Malenia fight in Elden Ring but Black Flame Friede is just 👌🏻

[gabrielbelmont]

This is the best DLC I have ever played in my entire life, love Ashes of Ariandel. Lady Friede will guide you.

Having played all the souls games including elden ring, I gotta say that Sister Freire may be my favorite boss from the entire series

[GawainW]

When I fought Malenia, I was reminded of Sister Friede. Both are duelists that can either be patient or overwhelmingly aggressive, but also can be staggered and punished. Although I have to say, I preferred Sister Friede just because the amount of damage she does is a lot more reasonable. That compared to how Malenia can just kill you with 2 or 3 attacks, which to me seems like a crappy punishment to add challenge. Some of Malenia's attacks are confounding in how you have to position and time your dodges. Her life steal effect I could deal with if that wasn't a problem. Malenia was just too unforgiving and unfair, even by Souls games standards. But Sister Friede gives you clear ways to understand the fight, and doesn't completely screw you over if you make a mistake since it's only her biggest attacks that will knock off most of your health.

[alasdaresineaeris]

Out of all the bosses in the Souls series/BB/Sekiro/ER, Friede is definitely the most memorable for me. The development of the ice cold phase 1 to the aflame phase 2 and then the Kindled Blackflame Phase 3 sold it for me.

[grimzen]

;0 for some reason, this kind of gave me Howl’s Moving Castle design, when Sophie wanders in her nightgown looking for howl and howl’s morphing into a monster and the flame being his heart.

[mickeycee]

God the frustration of this boss fight and the feeling of triumph in defeathing all phases. Good memories
