This has got to be the strangest, most bewildering, most out of order, most nerve-wracking first playthrough of any game I've ever seen, and i love it. For perspective, you're still roughly 2.5 areas away from beating the base game, while still having dozens of sidequests, optional areas, items and upgrades you haven't found. Respect for the sheer balls of pure adamantine, man, it could never be me.
I've beaten the DLC since the last episode ! I got back at Elden Ring being rusty on how I should approach the game and its bosses, so seeing you play Elden Ring refreshed my mind. I got more observant, more patient and it helped me all the way until the final boss of the DLC ! Now I can enjoy your prowess in the Shadow Realm with peace of mind, let's go ! I find it funny that Messmer phase 2 transition changes meaning because you didn't finish the base game. It's like he wants to prevent you to become Lord instead of stopping your reign. The writing was clever there.
Nice! I was wondering how far in you were. I'm glad I was able to indirectly get your head in the game so to speak. I hadn't even considered that about his phase two. Pretty cool.
Having played through the full game numerous times and almost being done with the DLC, I am amazed you have done so well doing what you've been doing. Having only +3 on flasks and just being able to hack and slash through bosses with pure skill (and some trial and error) is so entertaining, I watched every single ER video over the past week just so I could catch up. 15/10 will be watching the rest of the play through
@@gabebowman9590 Wow! Thanks man, I really appreciate you watching my stuff and I'm super glad you're enjoying it so much. It's nice to get props from you veteran players 😁.
Haha i remember my first jump slap from them golems. Had about the same reaction as well. You taking out messmer was crazy. I used npc summons on him. Couldnt imagine doing it without
I wasn't expecting it at all lmao. I love how enemies and bosses in this game just do things that make the most sense to do. Big iron golem with a halberd? Stamp you like ant with it 🤣🤣. Messmer was tough as hell. He felt pretty fair though imo.
Imagine crying about "wah wah DLC too hard" when this absolute giga chad whose never played a souls game does it with no fragments and a +3 flask. You sir, are the epitome of skill and perseverance. Just as father Michael Zaki intended.
Michael Zaki made me legit laugh out loud lmao. Thanks brother, I'm feeling the pain, but still determined(stubborn) to get through it all regardless 😂.
Lol, love the complete fucking confusion at shit happening around you. Welcome to the beauty of non-linear as all hell exploration. Messmer can be a very early boss or a very late boss depending on route, good job beating him this early bro!
@@FaustusGraticus It's a ton of fun. I thoroughly enjoyed it in Breath of the Wild but Elden Ring feels even more likely to be done out of order 😂 Oh and thanks!

🤣 I'm just glad you're enjoying the playthrough despite how odd it's turning out. Thanks for the praise homie 😁.

Holy caga.. dude! That boss fight.. on the edge of my seat! You make it look so easy! No blessings and crappy flasks.. dudeeeeeeee 😮
😁 I like to make things harder than they need to be lmao.
@@Thryfe hey it’s how you like to play.. I think it’s dope! I can’t do it! 😆
a lot of people running into messmer by accident, i think. this library makes you go insane
Good to know it's not just me then lol.

Messmer is only the second main boss. You're good

The fact that you're beating bosses with +3 flasks and while purposefully nerfing yourself is actually CRAZY dude, mad respect for that!
@@stubb3dto338 😄 Thanks man. I'm determined as all hell, I play most games by imposing my own rules on myself. Sometimes I curse that lmao.
I'd watch way more of this content just to enjoy that accent.
@@wyattthealchemist 😄 glad to have you around. Thank you.
