Can you beat Elden Ring while over the max equip load? Wearing too much gear puts you in the "overloaded" state which prevents running, dodging, and jumping. Uh oh.

Imagine throwing this huge festival to give your lord an honorable death then watching as a tarnished pushes him in the deep side of the pool like an unwanted Sim.
No ladder can save Radhan now
Imaging falling into the deep even when you are able to use gravity magic 😂
I didn't know about this killing your Sim thing and just asked my GF about it. She replied: "well when playing the game you try all the ways of killing the Sims" like it was the most normal thing in the world. I'm dead xD
@@ROR5CH4CH So are the Sims
@@aidanyoung9133 stop it I'm already dead xD
“His attack only took half of my health”, spoken like a true dark souls player
"Yeah this attack's hard to dodge but it doesn't do too much damage, I still have 5% of my health left."
Lines like that always give me flashbacks to fighting EX deviants in Monster Hunter GU, with people stuffing their pockets with any type of full heal (or materials for them) that they could get simply because when you get hit you're either dead or hanging on by a thread anyways.
If its not a hitkill, then its all good.
@@GumshoeClassic Omfg I remember that. That shit was awesome!
"Ok he can't one shot me....alright I can beat this guy"
bro played dark souls without rolling, that's like eating toast without bread
why is that the absolutely most perfect comparison omg
I did my first ever playthrough of dark souls completely without rolling cause I couldn't get the timing right after trying for barely 5 minutes. I had a shield that absorbed all physical damage anyway so i just played it while blocking everything. Only way later I realised how much EASIER dark souls got by just rolling
Can confirm that i can now eat toast without bread
I rolled in Dark Souls until I could use Havel's Greatshield. Then I just stood there and tanked everything with it.
@@mylanmay Similar story, did the first two games that way. This clunky roll attack doesn't move me out of the way, how does it protect me? Oh... i-frames are a thing, learned way later.
Artorias first time around on NG+ was interesting.
Well, he did still roll, just less than the average player

Imagine how Torrent must feel being summoned for the first time in the entire playthrough just to ferry the heaviest tarnished alive over a single gap, and then be banished away. Poor Torrent.
radhans horse be like, "first time?"
@@diocalante1341 radahn's horse is a chad
dude he carried the entire playthrough of avg weight in that one jump, torrent can nap
Torrent: my master is so heavy
Leonard: First time?
@@diocalante1341 Radahn's horse doesnt carry anything really, Radahn uses gravity magic
The evil version of this: "So i went and got Bloodhound step, negated carry weight and beat the game in 30 minutes"
you cant cheese the knight cav with this build tho
How do you negate carry weight? Or do you just mean Bloodhound Step completely negates (most of) the movement penalties?
@@sabata2 Bloodhound step is super quick, moves a huge distance, makes you invisible for part of it, and has s the entire time. He could have just bloodhound stepped through the whole game and it would have been faster than running at a normal speed (without the horse)
@@sabata2 Its basically an upgraded quickstep, but its so fast that it outpaces normal running when spammed.
@@gabrielmelnik6796 using a horse is technically not against the rules as he said but he just decided not to use a horse to make it more interesting
Is there a vod of him just walking through the game while overloaded?
It'd probably be good to fall asleep to

Honestly I kinda want to try this myself. A real hero
I doubt he actually did it. would make more sense to cheat and just give the illusion he did in order to put content out faster

I love the refusal to use Torrent from an in-game perspective. Cursed with such tremendous weight he lacks the ability to even jump, this Tarished refuses to allow his noble steed to bear the painful brunt of his weight, marching stoicly across the land instead. Truly a hero. Truly an Elden Lord. Truly, our seed will look back upon us, and recall, An Age of Kindness.

@@mihainiculae7433 lol
Fun fact: Torrent is 100% not necessary to complete the game, because you can't use him while you're invaded. So From had to design every area to be reachable on foot as well as on horseback. This is why there are long ladders right next to spiritsprings in Mt. Gelmir that lead to the same spots.
FromSoft has always been good with level design and what we’re seeing in Elden Ring is a holdover from their other games.
I’ve been going through Dark Souls 3 after beating ER and if you can see it in the level, you can get there. The problem is is usually figuring out where you need to go.
So they failed? considering a lot of host just sit in unreachable places and farm runes.
@@andsegcar what does it have to do with being able to finish the game without using Torrent?
Maybe it is true that you don't need to USE Torrent to finish the game, but acquiring him IS 100% necessary to complete the game without glitching/zipping. You need to visit the roundtable at least once to enter Leyndell and you can't do that without receiving Torrent first.
@@shamfyre Well yeah but that has nothing to do with Torrent himself lol. I'm talking about how good the level design is here
Such a nice touch that Alexander is immune to fire in this fight. Makes sense, he's seen just before it standing in lava willingly, and he is a fire hardened jar, after all.
The thing I regret the most, is that I killed him in the beginning not knowing what use he would have for me and what a nice jar he actually was...
@@renef.8468YOU MONSTER
@@renef.8468 randomly killing NPCs in a souls game is such a wild thing to do lol
@@acastusofastora8641 true but it's my first souls game so how should I know lol
@renef.8468 he wasnt attacking and was talking to you tho..
Keep in mind this map is 90 square miles... And he walked it... he was walking 2 to 3 a marathon's to get places... the distance from Limgrave to the Capital is nearly the same distance as Solitude to Riverrun in Elder Scroll's Skyrim... But your walking it, with all the enemies that can beat the shit out of you in like 2-3 hit's and your not walking it once no no no your going back and forth back and forth and then your going even farther... What a fucking madman
While most of your points are valid, and this feat is insane, once he had grace points, he could fast travel, reducing the "back and forth" but not entirely eliminating it. Still, crazy.
@@jonblanchard5453 Oh shit I didn't even think about that, it's still pretty fucking crazy though. I hate going through Caelid still and I got Torrent to this is pretty fucking impressive.
Wtf is is Riverrun?
@@InfantShredder69 riverwood??? Still though that’s pretty long, Solitude to Riverwood just slow walking. I might try that just put on the slow walk hotkey from Solitude gate and walk all the way to riverwood.

seeing that after struggle so much to kill her was hearthbreaking
how do people even realize that, just throwing random pots at every enemy to see what works?
@@jwanikpo i think it's because you can do the same thing against lady butterfly in sekiro with your shuriken so it make sense that we use something similar against melania in elden ring
I said the same thing lol. Freezing pot is the true hero of the game
I just have to say what a great video. So committed. Also. THE FREEZING POT ON MALENIA?!?! I died to her 75 times. First time I used summons in the game was to beat her. Admittedly the second I used mimic tear, it became a trivial fight and didn’t feel very good to beat her with. I’m using freezing pot on this play through!!!!
your good, first I used 2 other people and 2nd i used redmane knight ogha
Yeah, no it won't work that effectively now unfortunately. It looks like they actually made the windup faster. I'm saying this because I compared the windup speed from my recorded gameplay of Malenia to the one one in this video and the one in the video is definitely a lot slower
*Admittedly the second I used mimic tear, it became a trivial fight *

@@catodes1295 but it still works extremely well
Lmaooo that Radahn kill was unexpected 😂😂
As soon as I saw the ledge in the water I was like "no....."
Honestly, I love the idea of this run conceptually.
Imagine this guy, walking around with hulking armor and a huge shield, so heavy that he shakes the ground with his steps, just casually blocking blows from house sized enemies as he goes on a stroll.
It would be a magnificent sight.

This is so much more than just a meme run, it perfectly demonstrates the best part of the game.
It's a series of seemingly impossible obstacles that you need to adapt to by exploring and experimenting.
You can choose to beat your head against a boss with your current setup for hours or adapt your gear and strategy, the difficulty is truly optional.
this is overwhelming for most amd the achievements stats of how many have obtained each achievement does support this.

@@benshepherd2419 Well, maxed as in hard capped stats. So noth over 80

There’s something so relaxing about this run concept, the way walking everywhere turns the whole journey into a kind of lazy stroll through Elden Ring’s beautiful scenery.
The early game looked like hell, but it's crazy how more and more effective it actually became later on, you absolutely rekt Malenia at the end
This really proves how customizable of an experience FromSoft provides!
Their games are insanely well thought out.
I didn't even think of the freezing pot thing for waterfowl. I just learned how to perfectly dodge it every time through helping people.
Yeah insane

Using the butt stomp was such a smart idea to platform, and actually being able to platform under the sewers using it is genuinely one of the most impressive things I've seen done in this game, ggs
SUPER MARIO
He also could have used this at around 25:10 to climb the ledge

Being clever and being able to problem solve are different than tackling the architypical souls challenges. Like he showed you don't need much skill to easily kill Malenia, just careful planning. Trying to do this fight with like a typical medium load weapon based dex character for instance is a much different challenge and is much more of the typical souls expected challenge.
He's also bad at youtube guides

@FireFaxs woy
I love the problem solving required to make it through this type of run. It's like you're playing completely different game. I also appreciate your commitment to limitation, like not using torrent or quickstep unless you absolutely have to. Overall awesome run.
That's the beauty of challenge runs. It becomes less of reading attacks and figuring out when to do certain things and going "what shenanigans can I pull to survive this?"
Honestly, that was the best unique and creative playthough of ER ever done. Turns the game into something completely different, more of a walking sim and a puzzle game. And it makes you appreciate the vastness of this world. Like you yourself were there, carrying your weapons and armor. Thats exactly how the walking animation looks. Maybe that way of playing was intended after all. That's just how a normal human would fare with such weight. No rolls, no running, like hiking with a massive backpack.
Truly a marvelous experience, sir.
FYI Pineapple, on Radahn you can skip the ranged phase by going backwards away from him at the start, normally it takes three taps of the sprint on Torrent, so in your run it be a little bit of a walk; the skip despawns Radahn, and getting closer again makes him re-appear, only in his sword state.
I wish there was exactly one mimic in the game, somewhere really late like Leyndell or the Haligtree. You've gone dozens of hours without mimic chests and the only traps being transporters you can roll away from. You go to open a chest and BAM you got vored.
That mimic would achieve rockstar status immediately and forever be enshrined as a meme.
150hrs in and I had no idea you could roll away from those traps lmao
I have 302~ hours and I had no idea you could roll away from those traps lmao
They must be saving it for DLC. Even better, if it doesn't chomp you it becomes you then fights, to catch out all the dinguses who insist on making it fight nude.
Wait you're telling me I could've rolled away from them?? Bruh 105 hours in and I didn't even know lol... Now that I think about it I was able to roll away from a teleporter chest one time. It was cuz some dude followed me tried backstabbing me. I didn't even notice it until now huh..

Watching this was waaaay more interesting than I thought it would be! The new tactics forced by this restriction were super fun to watch and even teached me a thing or two of the game :D
With Radahn, if you walk backwards until he disappears then walk back, he won’t fire any projectiles and will just rush towards you (this includes spears).
There's two reasons that the release of elden ring has made my life happier. The first reason is the game itself, and the second reason is the abundance of iron pineapple videos

fantastic! also mad respect that you went back to prove the butt stomp could solve previous issues
“This encounter is a whole ass boss fight” yeah as someone who is playing ER as their first true fromsoftware game, I really did think that giant was a boss and was so disappointed when I got to the grace point and he just respawned backed in.
God yes lol. I spent like 1 hour trying to beat him, because it didn't even occured to me to rest at nearby grace, because why would i need it? I just keep dying and respawning here!
haha i know what u feel, event as an experience soulslike player, that first giant after the gate is pretty hard for me, because it's been a long time for me not playing dark souls lol
Same here although I wasn't disappointed at all. Quite the opposite. I thought "if that is just a normal enemy then what the hell else could they have in store for me,"
I've played all the FromSoft games and I was pretty surprised he was just a regular enemy as well. I had assumed he was at least a miniboss who wouldn't come back.
Very eye-opening for what Elden Ring considered a "standard" obstacle
25:08 probably this has already been mentioned but the butt slam ash of war gets you quite high and is relatively easy to obtain. It would have surely worked here, as well as for the Farum Azula ledge.
Edit : yeah alright I should keep watching the video before commenting
Happens to me too, haha.
Remember all the items that he had to jump for to obtain them? Will the buttslam destroy them or was this more of a "dayuyyyuyoum i cant get these usefull items it gon be haaaard" just to flex with that jump later on?
That was probably more like "do I need to use this, or do I just want to use it to get this item right now?" Note that he didn't go get the madness shield until he actually needed to use Ground Slam.
Absolutely amazing my friend! I cheesed the hell outta the game, mimic, insane bleed, glitches for more money etc and it was still hard for me lol mad respect on your skill level! Thats the thing I love about Elden ring, it's very much as hard as you want it to be.
Honestly I wonder what would be going through the enemies' mind if they could think. Just seeing this one guy, walk, not run, but slowly walk toward them, and then equally slowly but incredibly brutally kill them one by one without so much as going a step faster.
"If you're an impatient person, then attempting this run will be a nightmare." Man, you don't have to be impatient for this to be a nightmare. I wouldnt even be able to do fucking Soldier of Godrick without giving up on this challenge.

This looks so much fun, probably really allows you to soak in the world. I wouldn’t say you’re defying Miyazaki, but just solidifies his genius that their games are meant to be your own personal experience, they can be played however you want really, just some ways are better than others. Also, I say the horse would have been valid if you would have learned one gravity spell, then you could have been like Radahn.

I don't play elden ring infact I haven't played any single fromsoft game ever but why did he call the turtles, dog?
@@walkingtree2486
It came from the message system in the game, that only works is pre-made building blocks. Something like "Beware of Dog", "Hole Ahead", "Sun ahead, but fire", as examples.
But the blocks are somewhat limited on the different kinds of creatures, so in most cases we use Dog for any creature. Because of that, we even call them dogs, much to the confusion of others.
I'm terrible at explaining, but I hope it somewhat makes sense
Watching your character stroll leisurely through Caelid was a treat. That land is designed to make you always stay on your guard. It's a ruthless land, covered in threats, and you just walked casually through it to Redmane Castle.
I should’ve subscribed long ago. Your “playing souls-like” series is very entertaining so thank you!
That part where he's trying to give Alexander the kill and then getting owned by the fire giant had me rolling, that sums up how almost every fight goes when you assume you or a npc has the fight in a bag, the boss just says nope your going to try again lol

an NPC may one day rise to the status of Black Iron Tarkus from DS1.
I love the visuals of this. Just a man walking through this beautiful world. He’s not in a rush, he’s taking his time. I know the pain is felt hard but it just looks neat.
This was one of the most impressive self-limited runs I've watched so far.
I love how chill he sounds and relaxed he is, even doing the most hard challenges.
This is how we'd always walk around if our character didn't own a mysterious dimensional pocket where they store all those swords and armors we collect.
Well... to be fair, the tarnished would need to be hella strong, and would probably make holes in the ground while walking.
I believe the technical term is "hammer space"

No, what this truly showcases, is how effective anything you could want to do in this game truly can be. It feels like nothing is a wrong choice in this game and it is truly a thing of beauty.
It honestly reminds me of RuneScape in a way. People lock themselves to regions or to ridiculous restrictions on what they can do and still attempt to complete some of the toughest content in the game. Watching videos like this reminds me of Settled and his Morytania locked account, or Verf and his Karamja locked account, where they use obscure and ancient content to attempt to break boundaries and complete objectives. Elden Ring gives me the same vibe, and it's incredible
Elden Ring managed to achieve this for its PvE content. PvP is another story of course but I've never been into it very much, so it's not a concern for me. But still, not to undermine what they achieved for the (main) game, it's incredible. There feel like so many games where players are just shoehorned into using specific things and the experience feels very manufactured. Elden Ring has so many facets for story telling, all the way down to how your character overcomes adversity. In this case, you stare straight at them, walk forward at them intimidatingly, and then beat the shit out of them.
@@Chaosrain112 I feel like a large part of the PvP feeling is FromSoft's underwhelming servers. I have always despised Dark Souls PvP in general. But in this game, I actually enjoy when it happens. I get to just hurl a lightning bolt and one shot all the Katana folk and its so fulfilling.
I'd genuinely choose to do a "Can you beat Elden Ring while wearing electrified testicle clamps?" run over this.
Props for the run, man.
why are u shaming? there is nothing wrong with what u said
Somebody in Japan probably did that
I'm not gonna kink shame man, you do you...
@Deadpoppin soul's players are cruel jack. and i love minors! -moonupper
What about ranged weapons? Bows, crossbows, guns?
13:02 Ah, I see you thought about that.
17:20 You can also poison him, I did so at least.
If you want to do this challenge here's some tips:
*Use sorceries* and obtain *Misericord* and a *Medium Shield* for *blocking, parries, and high incantation/sorcery damage and stagger damage (Also put bloodhound step or quickstep on the Misericord for great dodging like in this video).*
Obtain the *Deaths Poker,* you only need *18-25 intelligence "(Stop at 25, you don't need more.)", 30 dexterity, 20 strength* for it to be amazing if you upgraded it at least *7 times or max.*
Acquire the *Great Epee* for better thrusting sword damage than the rapiers here and about the same speed of attacking.
Imagine if people had world records for how slow you could play a game. That would be hilarious.
this this needs to happen #turtlerun?
Allow me to introduce you to the Lowrun, where you beat a game by doing as little as possible, and as the world record for The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is literally a week long
This exist lol
There is active competition on some leaderboards on the main speedrunning place (you know the one) for games like Minecraft, to get last place.
Have you ever heard of the Zelda speedrun where you stare at Rupees for several hours?
Fun fact: you don’t actually need to climb the tree and use a bow to kill commander O’Neil. Instead, you can sneak up behind him and use poison mist, as it won’t aggro them when cast. In fact, any enemy you can sneak behind, you can use this strategy on. (i.e. draconic tree sentinel or one of the two tree sentinels in Altus plateau)
I have a feeling he probably didnt do it has he used this against the draconic sentinel in his lvl 1 challenge run and he doesnt like spamming the same strats
Your videos are quickly making me passionate about starting to make my own content. You're really awesome, dude
Dude ive been absolutely loving all your challenge content. “I was defying Miyazaki” is my favorite line.
I love how the gimmicks you pull are extremely useful to me who is seriously struggling though the game. Giving me ideas and strategies that I wouldn't have thought of on my own.
*cough* *cough* @malenia *cough*
Same
The speed that your character traversed the lands between in the context of a mission to save the world is a mood and I feel it
These runs are insane. The amount of patience is just incredible
This is truly a piece of art. Amazing work :) We can tell how much you appreciate and love Dark Souls and its amazing
