The Ever-Upvoted Goldmask: you cannot pet the cat but you can (and should) talk to her all the time, she has a ton of dialogue and will say something new at every story advancement. also she moves around the room she's in, and sometimes scratches the wall.

every single person is capable of making a real difference in their own small way, for example I have convinced multiple people new to the series to start with Dark Souls 2

fascinating. as a ds2 fan i'm willing to hear arguments

I bounced off the first Dark Souls pretty hard, but I fell in love with DS2. the fact that enemies stop respawning if you kill them enough makes even defeat feel progressive while you're learning, and many bosses specifically reward exploration (e.g. turning the lights on the Lost Sinner's arena).

...just kidding. here is the actual reason why everyone should play DS2

A lot of love went into designing that cat. What a beauty 😻

She’s also the only NPC that you cannot kill or even damage, that’s true dev love in a Souls game

Awww! But you can pet?

Did DS3 have a cat? I disliked the game a bunch and I do not remember I did like Alvina in DS1

I remember I joined Alvinia's covenant in DS1 and went right back to farming her minions for souls, whoops. She Did Not Like That you can get the Silvercat Ring in DS3 but there's no actual talking cat, one of many reasons why it's the inferior Dark Souls. I haven't played all the DLC yet though

There’s none in the DLC either. But, DS3 takes place at the end of the world, so if there were cats the world would have enough joy to go on
