i was playing the DLC earlier today and got this dialogue from Gough. i've never seen it before, he's never said this to me on previous playthroughs. so i looked it up on the wiki, and i'll link the page below for convenience. the wiki does list it, but says that this is the result of answering "yes" to a question. but gough had not asked me a question here. i just walked up to him and he did his usual intro and then i hit "talk" and he came out with all this! so i'm wondering what the criteria for this dialogue actually is, perhaps someone on here will know? the only thing i did differently on this playthrough was that i hadn't talked to ciaran. in fact, ciaran had not spawned in at all since i beat artorias, then did a full run around township and chasm without getting killed. normally i'll get slaughtered by those dark magic bolts at least once, but this time i was lucky. since the area never reloaded, ciaran hadn't spawned by the time i went up to talk to gough.

I've played this game many times, and i never skip the dialogue because every now and then i discover a new line that i've never heard before since in game circumstances can trigger NPCs to say different things. i do not remember Oswald ever saying "thou art a friend, for thee a warm welcome" so i was wondering what would have caused the game to include this line?

I've been trying to think about what i might have done differently during this run and can only think of two things:

1-my character is a member of the way of white. i don't join this covenant on most playthroughs.

2-i summoned Lautrec for the gargoyle fight, which i don't usually do.
