Animations

Unused Gestures

Name	Image	Description
Proper Bow Gesture		A method of communication used since ancient times. Teaches the "Proper bow" gesture. Conversation need not be in words. Besides, words can be most hurtful, whether we wish to admit it or not.

Areas

Unused Areas

Unused Areas New locations to die in!

Unused Bonfires

Selectable Bonfire Areas

Name	Image	Notes
Old Akelarre		While both the Location and its Bonfire exist in-game this Area was probably cut due to the fact there would be only one Bonfire to select, making it redundant, so it was moved to the Shaded Woods.
King's Passage		While this location also exists in-game there are no Bonfires there, leaving this unused.
Memory of Vamaar		Originally the Memory of Vamaar was supposed to have 2 Bonfires located in it, as both of them were cut the same happened to the Area.

Individual Bonfires

Name	Image	Notes
Lord's Private Chamber		Corresponds with the Lord's Private Chamber area and listed after the Chapel Threshold Bonfire, possibly the name of the Primal Bonfire.
Sinner's Rise		Listed amongst Sinners' Rise bonfires, possibly the name of the Primal Bonfire.
Eygil's Altar		Listed amongst Iron Keep bonfires (not to be confused with Eygil's Idol), possibly the name of the Primal Bonfire.
Sanctum of the Scorned		Listed amongst Gutter/ Black Gulch bonfires, possibly the name of the Primal Bonfire.
Alva's Resting Place		An intriguing bonfire, while listed next to the Heide's Tower of Flame Bonfire's it is too far away from them (and any other bonfire) to be directly connected.
Bonfire		A placeholder Bonfire listed between Rhoy's Resting Place and the Rise of the Dead Bonfires.
Bonfire		A second placeholder Bonfire listed before the Gyrm's Respite Bonfire.
Last Rest of the Giants		Listed between the Soldier's Rest and Crestfallen's Retreat Bonfires.
Unused Last Giant Bonfire		A cut bonfire located inside the Last Giant Boss arena.
Unused Shaded Woods Bonfire		A cut Bonfire that would have been in the Shaded Woods, located out the left exit of the Ruined Fork Road bonfire, down the path to the blocked stone archway and the Shrine of Winter.
Unused Memory of Vammar Bonfire		A cut Bonfire that would have been located in the Memory of Vammar, just before you enter the courtyard.
Another Unused Memory of Vammar Bonfire		A second cut Bonfire, this one located next to the dead Giant at the end of the level.
Unused Dragon Memories Bonfire		A cut Bonfire that would have been located right next to the Dragon's corpse.
Unknown Bonfire 1		An unidentified Bonfire.
Unknown Bonfire 2		Not a Bonfire at all, but a Lord Vessel, seeing as it was possible to warp to the Lord Vessel in the original Dark Souls it would most likely have served the same purpose as one.
