Congrats on the sponsor
First Lemon, and now Press. I’ve been seeing other channels sponsored by this game as well. Seems the publisher is really trying to recoup costs from this commercial failure of a game. I’ve played it, and it definitely had a pretty big budget. Not quite triple A, but definitely double.
Wait, so you didn't break both of your arms irl for content? Oh well... let's see how this goes
Yeah I know that not inflicting massive physical trauma upon myself for the sake of content is a little bit of a cop out... but hey... that's the business we call show
@@PressContinue Fine, i'll let it slide this time. Just cause i hear you have an album to record and it would probably be hard to do without your arms.
Not playing with his feet on the controller either
I fr thought he had an accident and was using it for content
He doesn't live with his mom ,so why would he?
"Twinkle, twinkle, Titanite, all my scrpits start with 'all right'" dude I genuinely had to laugh so hard.
I thought at first he broke both of his arms and decided to make content out of it.
If I ever did, I probably would
@@PressContinuewhat limb would be the substitute in that case
@Gary_a_normal_human_being I'm guessing legs, but that's a bit too bland, maybe eye tracking
@@Gary_a_normal_human_beingThere's a brazilian dude who beat most of the bosses with his feet. Look Taticads derrotando nameless king com os pés up
I'd argue that Ocelotte is real, because when Oceiros slams his hand down in the second phase after his spin, it makes a small AOE that drains your FP. So something's going on with that hand of his, maybe he still had an Ocelittle clinging to it.
I had no idea about the FP AOE but the choice to make Ocelotte invisible apparently came from censorship. Because the baby model still exists within the cut content. It was apparently deemed to disturbing so they made it into a mystery whether it's an invisible child or whether Oceiros truly has lost his mind.
@@PressContinue Not just disturbing but there's a lot of places that don't exactly like violence being shown on children in Media, especially games. Which is also part of the reason why Children in Bethesda Games are normally immortal.
Well, yes, and there’s supposed to be something there it’s made invisible because from software doesn’t want to controversies from a Boss killing a baby in game.
It’s a testament to your penchant for insane runs that I clicked on this video fully expecting you to open with “Hey I broke both my arms the other day so I figured I’d turn it into a challenge run for fun”. I don’t know if I am disappointed or glad that you didn’t
i love how "pupa" has become a reoccuring joke in your channel
Extra well dones for the fear of the dark joke during midir
I've never once seen that mimic get killed by the demon in Catacombs of Carthus. every time I've coaxed those two enemies to fight the mimic wipes the floor with that poor demon and still has half a health bar left afterwards
Who would win?
A demon spawned from a perversion of a Lord's Soul who has survived untold millenia until the very flame that fuels him begins to fade
Or
A goofy ahh chest that knows karate
I loved the "Fear of the Dark" reference, it was so good, it's one of my Iron Maiden's favorite songs!
theres actually a lot of metal references in the video
Gotta hand it to you, I can't put my finger on it exactly, but you really nailed this one by going out on a limb and arming yourself like this.
Was really down to the knuckle but I knew he'd pull through
The moment Andre fired that sick "arms" pun, I knew I was in for a good time!
Aha, I was wondering if it would be a kicking-only run or something, but Wielding Arms is a clever way around that! Looking forward to it!!
Ah, I just love ds3 challenge runs ^^ somehow more satisfying than eldenring, as you actually have to work with a very limited arsenal, while in ER there is always something to make it more viable.
10/10 pls more :D
Usually long, tidius runs would cost one's arm and leg but this is indeed next level.
Hope you had a lot of fun with this one and your band you're gonna focus on for the time being!
Good job on the Backlogs bit, I hope that branching out your scripting style really helped shoulder putting out a new run. Really gotta hand it to you, it's hard to elbow in a new bit without eating through your existing material like a swarm of locusts. Fun run to watch! Keep on reaching and preaching.
You don't want to know how hyped I was for that Summoned Skull reference
I think you mean skull servant
Love your videos Press!!
I can't believe you did another video! Your channel is a comfort place for me so every new video makes a day instantly better🥰
perfect upload timing !! thanks for making my flu more bearable :)
The last time i was this early people still remembered the Furtive Pigmy.
Jokes aside, your content is amazing. I know that no matter how bad my day us, i can always put on your videos and clear my head. Keep up the good work!
49:29 the Iron Maiden reference was Fire
I like that you can work with what is handed to you
Super impressive stuff as always man. You deserve more credit than you get.
Thanks for making this content for us
Love you and your videos man, always full of puns that make my arms fall😂
Nice maiden reference, bro. Another great video! I appreciate you, man.
This video was hilarious thanks for the content
Idk if you already know this, but attack power (in terms of increases/reductions) only refers to the actual attack power of the weapon/spell, not the final damage dealt. All souls titles, including ER, have a fairly funky tiered damage formula that scales based on the relation between attack power and target defense. Attack power decrease can make you drop down a tier or two, which can dumpster your actual damage dealt far more than the AR decrease would suggest.
This was far more pronounced in DS1 lategame when even fully upgraded straight swords / daggers started dropping off dramatically compared to greatswords/halberds and above. DS3 formula is more forgiving, hence the straight sword meta, but when dealing with damage this low, you start feeling the effects.
Wikidot should have the formulas BTW.
TL;DR it's complicated...
Great video as always, you never disappoint until you do 🙂
Hey press have you not been streaming recently or have i just been missing it? Glad to see you posting!
I have not. But maybe soon(ish) again
This is my new favorite Press vid
I was not expecting Skull Servant in my Dark Souls 3 Challenge Run (TM) but I love it!
Great video as always 🇳🇱
Bro really is partaking out here 🔥
That was some gripping gameplay. I'd also like to point my finger towards your puns which where on point for sure. Give yourself a pat on the back.
I want that purple LTD so bad. Fantastic video.
Giyhomous is a great pun. This is good stuff matey.
nice another great video :D
Always nice to see Andre and the Firekeepers drop a new song
Zeg beste man , ge moogt ook wel normaal doen he haha. Lekker bezig man en ga zo door , zou ik zeggen
Zeker wel jonguh!
Damn, that emotional part with more arm jokes than hair on my palms hit me hard 😂😂
I was so wildly and inexplicably happy when you mentioned the Grasshopper. It's such a poorly known cocktail, but it's such a wonderful dessert drink :D
Nice sponsorship section, I’m actually gonna try this out since you recommended it. Looks awesome.
Fighting Ancient Wyvern straight-up is a feat worthy of respect
To be fair, he has like... 3 moves or something
36:40 Nice!!! Symphony X!! Paradise Lost is a goddamn masterpiece. Continue having great taste in music, my guy. 🤘🤘
I must hand it to you, that grey fox reference was really good
I think I've been watching you for about a year now and you never disappoint! thank you so much lol. I just imagined whenever you're thinking of a new challenge to do You're just like a wizard at his cauldron throwing random shit in there😂
Kudos for subverting my expectations with the vid title while simultaneously making it wordplay.
I could barely HANDle the amount of "hand" puns.Hands down the best two-handing hands video around.
Gratz on a sponsorship dude!
Ngl, that's the most creative challenge of any Souls title I've seen yet.
You never disappoint to give us the content we crave! :D
(Also congratz on the sponsor. Get that moneyyy :D)
Press Continue and Baron's Castle are (as far as I've seen) the champions of bizarrely creative FromSoft challenge runs.
I don't know what I'm more impressed by, the run, or the almost verbatim quote of the flavor text from the Skull Servant Yu-Gi-Oh card.
*comes back to Press Continue after months*
Ah. I see the Pupa still lives. Praise the Pupa!
Thank you for the “fear of the dark” reference😂 that was amazing 😂
Broken catalysts get half spell adjust and half scaling. Then THAT damage is treated as the new 100% total, then reduced by the armor. Because the scaling gets slashed AND the adjust, the damage can be affected by as little as 50% or as high as 83%
Another Press continue vid, day made❤️
Press needs to drop a vid every week icl
I'm glad you got sponsored PC.
11:00 ok so they don't get 50% "damage" penalty
but a 50% "attack rating" penalty
so the damage you output before factoring in armour and resistances
and due to the way armour works, a 50% reduction in attack rating will result in more than 50% reduction in actual damage
This this run cost you an arm and... another arm
Ahh, my favorite game and my fave song from Iron Maiden in one video by my fave souls creator? Lucky day 😂
This run (minus the broken part) was in my notes to do, my god am I glad I didn't do it lol
great video!
Well the funny thing is that in their normal state the preacher arms are broken in the metaphorical sense. Weapon art does as much damage per hit as a straight sword but you can spam it way faster and for spells it gets an S scaling. So it's a pretty OP weapon
Ey! Gratz for the sponsor!
36:40 love symphony x! who knew these people who played games about mythological creatures and demons and dragons would also listen to music about mythological creatures and demons and dragons
thats the best iron maiden refrence ive heard in a while
After that bit of fear of the dark, the following solo started in my head. But since you said it slowly, the solo was actually the bardcore version...
30:01 ... is this... an AronRa reference?! I thought I couldn't love you more! omg
I did not expect anyone to catch that. But yes I was indeed paraphrasing Aronra there
@@PressContinue omg! no way! Mr Continue, please marry me! 🤗
"Midir ate all the dark" followed by a "Fear of the dark" reference was beautiful
Why did I think you were going to play the game with two actual broken limbs
Try as you might, you cannot escape Champion's Gravetender and Gravetender Greatwolf. It is the thing that follows you in the dark that makes you think you are crazy.
55:55 what the bloody?
I've never seen that attack before.
In fact, I don't even recall SOC ever trying to heal. XD
but the latter I knew about, but that stab attack I did NOT.
Hitting the gym to this one
Don't break your arms
It always makes me dizzy when people lock on for the Midir fight. Anyways great video, I loved it!
Stuck watching ads but thank you for your sacrifice❤
Time for some epic gaming.
25:36 an easy way to tell with snap freeze and any frostbite is the enemies have a bit of frost on them and some snowy Particles, granted I usually use Snap Freeze in conjunction with pyromancy because, ya' know, fire resets frostbite, snap freeze does a boat load of frostbite.
Well given how subtle that effect is, I honestly can't see tell the difference unless it's from really up close
@@PressContinue Lol, fair enough. It's pretty easy for me just cause I use this cheese so much. XD
FreezerBurn strats go mad brrr, especially since you can spam proc frostbrite with freezing mist and fire based attacks (Preferable combustion), but that doesn't quiiite work for a run like this.
Still though, you made quite excellent use of the spell and I commend you for even being able to beat the game like that. Quite an impressive repertoire of completed challenges under you belt, good sir. V^_^V
FEAR OF THE DARK
FEAR OF THE DAAAAAAAAAAAAAARK
FEAR OF THE DARK
probably the most random challenge run but it was fun and i watched it all
Great video. Always a pleasure when you upload. Just one thing to say: Elden ring! Elden ring! Elden ring! Without further a do, ciao
Well... if Fromsoft would finally announce the damn DLC already that would be nice 😒
Smacking the wall like inosuke in Demon slayer chilling his katana.
Glas to be here early man!
Incredible 🙏🏽
This is so random, but I really want to see you beat Final Fantasy XV as Dark Souls.
To be honest I have never played final fantasy at all. (other than a little bit of the very first one on NES)
@@PressContinue Might be right up your alley then, who knows! 🤔 I specifically say XV because its ridiculously easy to abuse the combat system and is way more fun with limitations.
Man I haven't watched your stuff in a long while.
I definitely miss your cheesy ass puns!
Lol... release armageddon.. that was a good one. 😆
Good to know press is an Iron Maiden fan, good taste
Like always, Press is just disarming with his ideas...!
Underrated comment
You son of a gun, you got me xD
Press, my boi, I miss your posts!
Like you're not getting it in your subscription feed you mean?
@@PressContinue kinda. I'm manually searching for your posts sometimes. Are u working on a new video?
@@Clescivan Well that's not good, but kind of telling if that is happening to a lot of my subs.
Yes I streamed the final parts of the new run last weekend.
Yes, indeed. The pupa
Maiden reference, fucking love it!
Let’s get some broken handed claps in chat for this victory. I am assuming the hands are broken along with the arms.
This one definitely took some elbow grease.
To be fair, you dont fear the dark. You fear that there is someone in it.
I wanted dat pun
Wanted dead is fun
O press continue
I have missed you
i never would guess thhat thhe firekeeper is suchh a good guitarrist
I'd argue that snap freeze doesn't have a cooldown period, it has a warm-up period.
good video press, however cant say i agree with the ending choice...
That was the 3rd Wanted:Dead sponsorship I have seen today
You mean armsageddon?
The 69 damage against the nameless king is a nice amount of damage.
Why did you do this to yourself lmao, great stuff as always Press.
Of course Midir has ears, how else would he Darkeater midhear you?
Hey Press , are you planning any livestreams in the near future? But like your edited video's with a handfull of puns ofcourse !!
Probably. The coming weeks I'm doing recording for my band so I'm kinda forced to take a UA-cam break. But I might do a stream in the weekends
You have a band? @@PressContinue
