    I finish most games I play but only rarely play them more than once. Between the DS series, BB, Sekiro and Elden I must have done about 70 playthroughs, just damn good games

      That’s an impressive number! 👍

    Couldn't have said it better myself.

    Great video, as always 👍
    Now I think about replaying DS1 and finally finishing it 😂

    Was the first game since Ocarina of Time that gave me a true sense of an epic adventure - but I think people tend to forget that the unintuitive nature of the first playthrough is what made it really special. The expected trial and error, the countless deaths, managing your build wrong, screwing up quest lines or stumbling across a secret that made you feel like you're the only one who ever saw it.
    I have enjoyed every Fromsoftware game after Dark Souls 1, but none gave me the feeling that DS1 did. Elden Ring came close, but even with that game there is so much streamlined that there is less trial and error.

      Exactly this. It’s such a great sense of accomplishment.

    My first souls game was DS3 and by the old gods of lordran it was magical.
    Took me a full year and a half to finally beat it, due to giving up for a half a year.
    Once I came back, i was hooked forever.
    So by the time i played ds1 i had already gitted gud, but man i still love ds1 and have done so many different playthroughs now.

      DS3 is probably my overall fav. I started with Elden Ring but still love them all 😊

    Yes I remember quitting the game when I was being constantly killed by the intro Dragon 😂
