- Can you beat Dark Souls remastered without souls? Meaning without leveling up, without weapon upgrades and without buying items and spells. Not only is that indeed feasible, but you don't even need to use souls to become very powerful in this Dark Souls challenge.

"Not any more likely than us getting a release date anytime soon." haha jokes on you we got one babey
@@augurofnyarlathotep5051 Yeah, this video is going to get those comments a lot the coming days I'm afraid. You're the 5th one already.
Regardless, I'm very happy we finally have a trailer and a release date :D
Remember kids, if any of the kings want to use their magic attacks on you, just say no, magic is concensual after all
And if they still decide to use magic, they're being awfully rude
@@PressContinue and if it hits you before you can react, that's them being an asshole
Otherwise, theyre required to tell all neighbours theyre a registered Hex offender
@@deusvult980 this comment is vastly under-appreciated
@@PressContinue just accuse them of spell assault and get them arrested for magical harassment
I love how he's coaching us on all these fights like we're actually going to do this
Actually if you check the comment section, you can see several people saying they want to try it for themselves.
My videos basically cater to 2 types of audiences. One is people who are challenge runners themselves and for them I provide guides for specific runs. And two are people who like to watch challenge runs but don't do them themselves. And for them I provide insight into how these challenges are dealt with.
Of course, this particular video had a higher comedy value than usual. Most of my other guides have a more serious presentation.
You forget 3: people that will never touch a souls game themselves, but still like the game.
@@luipaardprint I don't know how you could like a game you've never played and will never play
@@walesjedi9217 They probably meant "like the content surrounding the game but haven't played it."
Sometimes you head down some content rabbit holes and enjoy hearing the nitty gritty of something but never getting around to actually reading/playing/watching something. It happens.
Guys like PC and ymfah have made it easier than ever to enjoy the series as an outsider IMO. (Would still recommend playing them to anyone reading this that loves catharsis from doing something difficult.)
@@luipaardprint Sounds like you're robbing yourself of an experience my guy.
Not using a single soul, one of the most painful ways to complete the game -- and possibly the most moral way, since you're not basically eating anyone or selling them to be devoured. Great work man!
It's immoral. You absorb the souls but don't even use them, disrespecting the circle of life
@@BigDBrian If you don't use the souls, you can potentially figure out how to revive the people they came from, much like how Anastacia is resurrected. Turning somebody's soul into a magical binding agent for a sword certainly isn't a circle of life.
@@jooot_6850 Most of the boss weapons are subpar in Dark Souls though, so it even lacks the Chad "cool sword" element.
@@nightscout9979 Huh? Wtf are you talking about, nearly all the boss weapons are really cool and powerful, sure they're not OP compared to other weapons but nor should they be cause then the PVP meta would be only boss weapons, but just to list a few of the really cool ones: Quelaag's Furysword, has a really good moveset, good damage and scales with humanity, Dragonslayer Spear can shoot lightning and has amazing reach and because it is a spear can be used while holding your shield up, I'm not going to explain the rest in detail but the Golem Axe, Smough's Hammer, Moonlight Horn, Crystal Ring Shield, Greatsword of Artorias, Greatshield of Artorias and the Lifehunt Scythe are all really cool, Chaos Blade and Dragon Bone Fist are alright too.
@@nightscout9979 Anastacia can be resurrected, because she have a strong soul. Almost every enemy have weak souls, that can only be used to power up yourself. They do not contain memories or something like that.
And why would someone want to resurrect hollows, rats, blobs in the sewers, basilisks, crazy psychopaths like Mildred or anyone in this universe?
Criminally underrated, the edits and jokes in this one were so damn good
Almost 300k views, asshat, tf u mean "underrated." Go play in traffic.
@@anagramconfirmed1717 What is your fucking problem dude? When I made my comment it had around 2000 views.
Grow the fuck up and behave with some decency. No matter what's going on in your life, there is no excuse to behave like a shit human being.

I could not stop laughing this whole video! Funny and informative. This channel is criminally underrated.
Thanks :D
tHoS cHaNnEl Is CrImiNaLlY uNdErRaTeD
The humor is sorta ok but it was really informative
It doesn’t do well in UA-cam algorithm because it’s over an hour which is sad
Very true
"that doesn't sound less likely than us getting a release date anytime soon"
OOH BOY WERE YOU EVER SO WRONG, IT FINALLY HAPPENED
and we are very grateful for that
@@EstebanGuzman we certainly are :)
welp, now i need a mod of that hollow weilding the hammer in ds1 now lol
I like to think Miyazaki saw this video and considered that comment a challenge, thus we can thank this channel for Elden ring having an announced release date. Also, after Miyazaki seeing all the ways people broke Souls, I have a feeling Elden Ring will offer a whole new level of challenge for speed runners in particular.
Well guys. It’s great.
From all the references you're making, too your comedy style, and style of gameplay, you are a man of culture. The "Spunk Yes," was the cherry on top.
I know how to sweet up even the most sour of sour pusses :)
"Well, did he at least die with dignity?" "Define... dignity, sir..."
I see you are a man of culture as well.
I'm so glad he made multiple references to different kinds of abridged animes here, seriously bring back my favorite memories from the dead
"WHY AM I TOXIC" nice dsp reference
Ack ack ack
Spunk yes
What a rotten way to die
Skeletor
And Happy souls
How can one run be so based?
Because I feel so much better when I do something bad :)
"The armored pig is a bit of a boar." Dunno if that was intentional or not but it got a laugh outta me.
Could have been...
:D
Glad to see the Jagged Ghost blade getting some love. Ive used this for level 1 playthru's for years
Dark Souls then: "Prepare to die. This game is really hard. You'll need to upgrade everything you can, and search everywhere for every tiny edge you can get. Good luck and git gud."
Dark Souls now: "So I died 60 times for this overly complicated meme challenge run. It took me 40 minutes on the successful attempt. I was actually surprised as I was expecting it to take at least 130 attempts and 2 hours per attempt. A pleasant surprise. Anyhow we'll skip all these massively powerful items, since we can't use them anyways due to the challenge conditions. Though we will grab this mostly useless item here for later. Naturally I know it's location is here in this extremely obscure location completely out of the way behind three optional bosses and two secret passages in an optional zone that's filled with bullshit enemies. See you next time when we try it again, but blindfolded and on NG+7."
More or less, yes
When you save all your money because you're afraid of losing a penny:
I think it's cute how he pronounces "head" as "hat"
"So when he attacks with his hat, dodge sideways..."
I'm aware of my accent. By the way, whenever a Dutch word ends in a D you still pronounce it with a T sound.

This man: how to be OP in life without spending a single dollar.
Well, souls are the currency in this world. So yeah, pretty accurate.
1st step: be a pro at Dark Souls. Awesome once again!
Wyverns: have 2 legs and walk on their wings with their legs
Dragons: have 4 legs/arms and 2 separate wings
Drakes: have 2 legs and 2 wings
Nice to see that dark souls is keeping technicality in view
@@DepressedCrow Not when it comes to weapons though, the halberd/bardiche/scythe rotation of incorrect naming is consistent
wyverns and drakes are pretty well the same except drakes can't fly and wyverns can
@@King_Flippy_Nips uh... You've never been to the valley of Drakes I assume?
@@WlatPziupp and where is the bec de corbin?
Gwyn in this run walked into the Gwyn Group Therapy session with his fellow Gwyns looking like he was having Vietnam flashbacks.
Gwyn: Hey, buddy, you look like hell. Was it another parry/riposter?
Gwyn: Yeah.
Gwyn: Dude, I know, they always do that.
Gwyn: It wasn't just that. He kept firing at me!
Another Gwyn, looking really beat up, chimes in.
Gwyn: Aw, dude, I know. Those damn fools using cheat engine to hack in guns!
Gwyn: No, she was definitely vanilla...
The other Gwyns: ...?
Gwyn: And she was SL1... fire, all I could see was fire...
Gwyn: Yeah, we're like the Lord of Cinder, fire is our thing.
Gwyn, looking terrified: It was like napalm... Black smoke, black flame everywhere... Black Flame everywhere... I couldn't do anything...
The Gwyn Collective freaks out. The meeting was rescheduled for the following week due to the Gwyns having collective PTSD.

Wow. All the tips and tricks here are useful not just for this run, but for other more "normal" runs. Super useful video, definitely will be exploring it further
"it" meaning the channel lol
"And beware of the channeler enacting a part of the spongebob theme song" fucking genius commentary
I learned more tips for doing a SL1 run in this video than I have from any SL1 run guide videos.
"I use glasses"
Inteligence 100 achived
I only realized that this video was over an hour long after I finished it. This was fucking amazing.
At 23:15 or so, when you get that "Purple Moss out of nothing", it means that one of the Toxic Blowdart Guys (I don't know their actual name) has most definitely fallen to their death. Whenever one of those Toxic Blowdart Guys dies, you are at LEAST guaranteed a Purple Moss drop (which automatically goes into your inventory), but you can also potentially get a Blooming Purple Moss from them as well (which will also be automatically put in your inventory).
So yeah, you didn't get a Purple Moss out of nothing. One of the guys that shoots the toxic blowdarts died. Oh, and any killed Toxic Blowdart Guy stays dead permanently until the next cycle.
Did you type this before watching the rest of the video where he made this discovery himself?
You're obnoxious. Did you stop the video to tell him something he already found out on his own, seconds after he said what you commented about? Or do you want everyone to know how much you know about the game?
@@alecwerme739 The former.. but it's not like I would have known when I paused the video that he had found that out later. It was only after I had made the comment that I found out that it was kind of redundant.
I don't know why you assume snobby intentions by default for something like this.
@@boyishdude1234 I guess I came off rash with that reply. I assumed you stopped the video to correct him and quit watching because of that, as there was no edit to the comment saying he figured it out himself. I enjoy his content, so I wouldn't want someone to be interested in just criticizing his word choices.
so smart
Lol as soon as you played that 90's Spider-Man audio line I instantly hit like
to kill easily the channeler: use a bow from downstair where the firekeeper soul is even if you don't have the level. But IMPORTANT just make headshots.... If you do only headshots the Channeler will never counter attack and only wait for death.

I was actually quoting the pope there
@@PressContinue wait a damn minute
That Manus fight was gorgeous. Amazing how you can keep your cool in those circumstances.
Well I've fought him before on SL1 NG+7 with a caestus. That fight was three times as long as this one, so it was not such a big hurdle this time around.
@@PressContinue Jesus. That's effing crazy.
Dope, looks like I actually have something to do today.
Just found your channel and I love these challenges, they're so exiting! The Bloodborne no hunter's dream challenge you did in 2018 was amazing. Keep up the awesome videos
Thanks :) and welcome to the channel!
I imagine Nito talking to his skeletons "What are you doing? Kill her!"
"We can't, we don't have enough eyes to see her"(yes that was a Bloodborne reference)
Time for my regular dose of feeling inadequate. Honestly you amaze me every time with your new way of torturing yourself!!
“I wear glasses now so I have passive IQ boost.” Love it just love it
Oooh dude it is stoopid how underrated this channel is. Only 5K. Ridiculous
Thanks bro :) hopefully this comment won't age that well
So about that golden golem: gold as all metals has a cryralline structure
Also even more important, according to most definitions "Drakes" or "Wyvern" have five limbs (tail, two legs, two bat like wings) whilest "Dragons" have seven limbs (tail, two hinde legs, two wings and two forelegs)
AND also also, fluffy tail = best tail
I thought drakes were wingless draconics, with 4 legs and tail
@@Juni_0220 Yes and No
In D&D "Drakes" are wingless big lizards that can breathe fire and other stuff. In other folklore these would be called Wyrm or "Lindwurm" in Germany.
@@Stirbreich I also thought lindwyrm was a 2 armed draconic with no legs and serpentine body and a wyrm had no limbs at all, basically a dragon snake.
@@Juni_0220 Yes and No again
At the end of the day they all are dragons and neither of them is, they are fantasy creatures.
Someone with money went to someone that could paint and said:
"Make me look cool fighting scaly monster" and the artist made something that he hoped would get him a lot of money. And 600 years later two people are trying to categories all these "scaly monsters".
What about Long?
The Quoatle?
The flying thing from Alice in Wonderland?
At this point I'm literally not watching the videos because they are exceedingly good guides for challenge runs (something which I doubt I'll do...most probably not on Souls games, maybe on Bloodborne or Sekiro), but more for the memes and the dry jokes everywhere in this video. I love your sense of humor Press.
I just recently found your channel, but i love your content...especially the commentary. You deserve at least 5 million subs more! Keep up the good work. Greetings from bavaria :)
As soon as you said "Why am I toxic?!" I immediately heard Phil's voice in my head, and it made me cringe. Thanks for that.
“WHY AM I TOXIC” is probably the most relatable thing I heard all freakin day
I assumed you had way more than 7k subs since it’s obvious how much time and effort goes into these videos. I’m impressed and keep it up.
Dude your videos are getting better and better by every new one, your editing is insanely fun. These videos are a perfect mix of entertainment and guide, the gameplay is solid af and damn that intro was amazing! Keep up the amazing work, i would love to see this for Ds3 :D
PS: Priscilla is the best Souls Waifu, she is perfect :)
Thanks, but already did this run for DS3. That's what inspired me to do it for DS1.
ua-cam.com/video/zNjRTd-wBns/v-deo.html
@@PressContinue Oh i didnt notice that, well thanks, more content to watch i guess :D
Hell yeah, spitting facts, Priscilla is best, shes my Waifu XD!!
14:00 the game doesn't actually keep track of which mimics you've killed so far to give you a garunteed drop on the last one, it just keeps track of how many times a mimic head has been rolled for. It takes 7 rolls for the garunteed drop (seven mimics in the game), so by using 4 talismans and killing 3 mimics, the drop is garunteed.
im not sure why but the editing in this video seemed like a cut above the rest, you are improving every video, very good video
I just started watching this and I already know it is going to be amazing. I love your content and I wish that you got more recognition. Keep up the great work!
Great video! I have 1000s of hours in soulsborne games but you still taught me a few things! (quite a few actually). Subscribed! 😆
gonna try this run with actually levelling up. OP PVE RUN BABY
21:20 _this is truly the breast game_
Hahahaha, neat
Bro you continue to amaze me with what you can pull off, keep up the great work!
These types of runs remind of how amazing Dark Souls 1 is. The sheer variety in approaches you can take is amazing. Doing these challenges causes you to find loopholes in the game to make the run easier. This is the true endgame of Dark Souls. You start playing ds1 while being clueless. Many hours later your beating the game without using souls. Masterpiece
OMG those first 30 seconds.
I wish I could like this video a million times.
Informative, hilarious and ultimately ENTERTAINING!! You earned a subscriber!!
Awesome :D welcome to the channel!
Didn't knew that the ghost blade even existed. And that ladder where you got the red tearstone ring blew my mind
I wish i could like your videos multiple times. You seriously need to make a compilation of your challenge run jokes, they’re all so goooddd
You can use Covetous Gold Serpent Ring from Sen's Fortress to be more sure with finding Symbol of Avarice. And humanities ofc.
Dodging Nito's sword-from-underground is even easier: just block while 2-handed. It changes characters hitbox, so this attack will miss you.
I think to prevent Nito's stuck, you may want to go slightly to the left after entering the arena, not to the rigth.
P.S. SIf is a wolf, not some miyazaki dog :D
dogs are like wolves but very good boys(/girls). and sif is very good so doggo
"christian values... NOT CATHOLIC, NOT CATHOLIC"
dead deceased on the floor sent to the sun this is so fucking funny
1:14:24 so I can find it again. literally re-watched the video just for the timestamp lmao
also "the breast way" lol
23:55 you literally made my brain short circuit from pun overload. I had to stop the video just to be like “he did not!”.
Man, you play very well, have nice vid ideas, very good info, good edit and a nice spice of humor. You deserve more suscribers, without a doubt. Keep up the good work
Rest in Peace, Priscilla... Best Souls Waifu!!
we were all playing dark souls while he was playing dark
Finally watched it all (been watching in shifts) and this is one of the best Dark Souls videos out there.
Wow! thank you :D
Really love these types of videos, keep up the good work bruv
I’m a simple man. I hear Happy Souls reference, I like
ok so basically how to be OP in DS without spending Souls: GIT GUD!!
I watched one of your Dark Souls 2 videos the other day and I quite enjoyed it. I clicked on this video, watched the beginning, and then once you started talking I realized who's video I was watching and I immediately subscribed. You got me with the Mentos commercial.
Absolutely fantastic video, brilliant jokes and edits! Your channel helps me wind-down after I finish work ❤️
Thanks Nicholas :) and glad it helps you unwind from a hard day at work. That's always very important
We need a poll to determine which is best. Priscilla's Feet or Gwendolyn's cross dressing.
Oh boy, don't give me any ideas :p
Priscilla's Fluffy Tail
How about both
Though i have to agree that bare feet are cute, not sexy, and I'd say the same about crossdressing (if you subscribe to the textual reading that Gwyndolin is indeed a feminine guy and not something more complicated, as the subtext there is a bit vague and up to interpretation)
@@anarchistangel2314 It really isn't vague or complicated. He is a boy raised as a daughter because of his moon powers and being miserable because of it according to his item descriptions.
In DS3 he comes out as a man and becomes the new allfather, a male-only title (as stated by the Japanese description of Pontiff's soul).
@@StephanuSneed I'm not super familiar with the Japanese descriptions, so i didn't hear about that. I just know there's been a lot of different interpretations of Gwyndolin's character (and honestly i don't think them taking a masculine title necessarily precludes them from being something other than a man, but that's, as i said, up to how you interpret things)
Thanks for the content. Btw love the DBZA references.
LOL that DSP “WHY AM I TAHXIC!!”
Love when I find detractors in the wild
Just got into dark souls, and started watching. The edits are fucking hilarious, and the information is perfect.
I love how well DkS1 is designed for stuff like this.
Hahaha The mentos Intro killed me! !!
Pretty cool! Not that I would ever manage this! 😁 Its also cool that you explain the details of the boss fights.
This video has more PPM (puns per minute) than any souls vid I’ve seen, and that sir is quite the accomplishment! Thank you for being brilliant, and you’ve got a sub in me! Also I’m going to subscribe to your channel.
that elden ring joke aged fast, see you guys in january
february...
Darn it, well atleast we get a Closed Network Test
@@eliascuenca5056 And more than likely longer in the states if you want to buy a physical copy because of the supply chain issues. 😠😞
love the TFS reference at 14:45
Thanks for the inspiration I've thought about doing this plenty of times before and rediscovered this so I'm probably gonna do it too :)
Darksouls is my all time favorite game, i really dont know why, maybe is your style of playing and commenting the walkthrough of your run that made me have a blast watching you, thanks for kindling the flame once more, keep it up and praise the sun❤( sorry for my english, not my main language)
I know how I'll spend my evening
This mad man did it
Lol love the way you put the vegeta team four star saying mine over and over sound effect in when nito does his grab attack even when you sped up the video made my day lol
This is video i was searching for. Thanks man
48:30 for Instant Gratification.
I think the taurus demon right after that is even more satisfying
Wait, bein OP without spending any soul and doesnt use any glitch holly f*ck
Yeah it's pretty crazy how powerful you can become just from what you can find out there in the world without leveling, upgrading or buying anything
So underrated man... this channel will blow up soon with this kind of quality 👌
An actual good and entertaining content creator! Keep it going🔥
Dude stop with the content, there’s too much!
Awesome job with this as always; I was thinking about if this was even viable and it very clearly is
Guess I know what my new DS1 run is gonna be...
This went from me watching a tutorial giving up on my build and coming back because just how entertaining and hilarious this was 🤣
idk if i ever said this but your videos got me back into dark souls i thank you so much for that you showed me so many tricks over these two years
Used this run as a reference for my no upgrades run, thanks!
Great content, good comedy and a Dutch accent as thick as the sludge in blighttown, what a grand combo
This is my favorite intro I’ve ever seen. The quick change to the smile emoji was so funny
Expert use of the Desertphile clip. i applaud you good sir.
This video is epic. The Marcel Vos of Dark Souls. Love it. Don't ever stop.
Haha, you're the second guy comparing me to Marcel Vos. I actually didn't even know him, but he's Dutch as well, so we do have a similar accent.
@@PressContinue well, you're both awesome youtubers!!! X
I can't belive i watched the whole vid 😄 I really liked it, well done !
Thank you :)
Thank you for all the info and laughter. The Dutch accent is magnificent 👌🏼
You earned my like by saying “well, what js it?!” Is the best gesture in the game cause thats just the truth
I didn’t know about the jagged ghost blade in gonna use that on my pyromancer run thanks. Oh and also great video so far.
