I had some people ask me where my VODs are for the streams. They are in a playlist on my channel, but I will be adding the playlist corresponding to the run in the descriptions so you don't have to go searching for it.
"Recently, a viewer asked me: can you tell me the time, kind sir? That got me thinking... Can I beat Dark Souls blindfolded and on fire, surrounded by a thousand coo-coo clocks plugged into a 4000 dB stadium grade sound system?" Edit: making dumb jokes because I think it's funny and to boost the almighty algorithm. You make cool videos man.
I'm big on Castlevania. The first thing I did was check the songs used in the description. Not disappointed, this is gonna be hype. (Oh and thanks for actually listing the songs in general. It's appreciated.)
Seeing as people have beaten this game naked, at level 1, with an unupgraded sword hilt, it’s safe to say any challenge run is possible. (Except for those miracle only style challenges)
Richter: "Look I defeated death and linked the fire." Simon: "phff ok chun lee I defeated death twice and linking the fire is for wimps who can't handle some darkness. Disappointed." Richter: "😢"
Thank you! I plan on doing all of the Fromsoft games. Currently I plan on focusing on DS1-DS3, but you never know. It's possible the dlc for ER will entice me
Another great video. Could you try "Can I Tank Dark Souls while wearing too much armour but I can't use estus or Heal and can only punch enemies in the face?"
by punch are you referring to bare fist bc I dont know if its possible to survive long enough with bare fist, armor, and getting hit non stop since I would only be doing 1 damage to most bosses. Now there is a spell in the game that retruns damge back that would be pretty intresting with a tank build
Cestus? But that spell sounds awesome. No rolling or strafing. Just a pure brawl. If impossible then maybe healing is allowed outside of combat so your ready to start again
Honestly, if you want to more closely resemble richter he is not only locked to miracles, he is specialized into sorceries and pyromancy, as he can use thise magics in the show and games, plus he regularly covers the whip with these magics, since the whip is already concentrated and imbued with alchemical power to fight demons honestly shouldnt need holy imbueification but dark souls so yknow.
The run was more focused on the challenge, the name came from a subscriber since I was struggling to come up with one at the time. I completely agree he would be using magic and pyromancy
I beat super ornstein so many times I fstarted to forget super smough. I die to super smough more than I die to super ornstein. I don't get why those attacks get you . They are very well telegrapht
I would have been ok if you had included the spiked whip into your arsenal and were allowed to wear clothes (No heavy plated or chain armor. Regular clothing or leather armor would have been fine).
One day, I need to make sure that's on the list. I have an official list on my discord where I take requests. I try my best to add all the ones from UA-cam but I forget sometimes to add them in
Hey, I have a question. (This is kinda long sorry) You mentioned that you wanted to 100% all of the games right? To get somewhat comfortable with them for challenge running right? Then I have some potentially frightening news regarding DS2 and what it takes to truly 100% that game. Have you ever heard of the Illusory rings? (If you have then I guess you can stop here.) Well there's 2 of them. The Illusory ring of the conqueror and the Illusory ring of the exalted. What they do is one makes your left hand equipment invisible while the other does the right. Anyways here's the scary part you get one by completing a run without dying. The other by completing a run without ever resting at a bonfire but you can still light them for checkpoints, you need to be smart though because some you need to come back to and may want to skip them the first time etc. Thankfully there's no trophy/achievements tied to these challenges if that's what you're going for but if you want to " Truly *100%* " DS2 then these built in challenge runs await you. Actually that could make for a neat Challenge run video in and of itself "can you beat both Illusory challenges at the same time?" The stakes only get heavier the deeper you go lol.
100% was just for steam achievements, but I definitely get what you're saying. I honestly have been thinking of just finishing the game once or twice and then start doing som challenge runs in DS2 and DS3. Also Do I need OG DS2 bc I have the DLC one
@@AccainGaming You shouldn't need OG they never removed the Illusory rings. I'd say OG was easier overall though. Scholar of the First Sin not only moved a ton of items around but also moved a bunch of enemies around as well as added more enemies to low populated areas. It's overall harder in my opinion. If Scholar version is the only one you've played/plan on playing you should be completely fine. Funny thing is since I played both versions extensively (the original massively more so) my memory of item and enemy locations are kinda scrambled between the two and it makes replaying it now just confusing lol.
@@AccainGaming Oh it wasn't the dlc that changed things. The original version had the dlc too. What Scholar of the First Sin is, is a "next gen remaster" moving DS2 from the PS3/XBox 360 to the PS4/XBox 1. It just happens to have all the dlc included in it. I believe what they wanted to do was spice things up and make the new version more worth it by changing most of the core experience. They even "integrated" the dlc where as the original version just gave you the keys right away (yes I'm talking in game keys to unlock the literal doors to them like you would any other locked door). Heavy Iron Key Dragon Talon Frozen Flower The Scholar version hides these keys in the game world and makes you find them before unlocking the dlc areas. Kinda cool immersion there. Ironically the dlc is the only thing in the Scholar version that has no changes at all, no new enemy or item placements, exactly the same as the old version.
@@tristanwelke7827 Oh interesting, I did not know that. It will be a fun experience when I get to play it. I don't think DS3 should take too long but I could be wrong about that.
I have a run that seems hard but cool and original if you wanna try. Can you beat Dark Souls without leveling health, no armor and equiping calamity ring ALL the run?
Interesting. The next run I am currently working on is cursed, no armor, broken sword hilt, calamity ring, and no estus but depending how the run goes I can add no vigor as well
@@AccainGaming Here's a few tips for the Fists Run when you do it: 1. 100%ing the Covenant Of Champs will give you a ring to make Unarmed Fists hit harder than the Caestus and also gives your fists more Scaling. 2. You're probably doing the Fists Run Armorless so I thought you would like to know that in one of the DLCs, There's a ring that makes being Armorless a good thing. 3. In another DLC, You can find *THE STRONGEST FIST WEAPON IN THE GAME.* Also Fists Only is Another One of Lemon's _"Ye Of Little Faith"_ Challenges
@@Mr.Jim248 thanks for the tips! I do believe two other challenge runners have done bare fist for DS2. Might be interesting to try it without the ring that boosts fist damage lol. I am assuming the other ring is Flynns ring, since it increased damage if your equipment level was low in DS3
@@AccainGaming Also (In technical sense) GamersWeekend is basically going to be doing Fist Only because of the Deprived having no weapons and that he's Beating DS2 as Every Class.
I appreciate your videos for the sheer challenge you overcome, but I think you might lean a bit too hard into sexual jokes. Still though, I enjoy your videos and the amount of editing that goes into them.
I, in general, just joke this way but since I was using the whip and it's connotation with sexual stuff I just made it a theme in this run. If it wasn't for the theme then I wouldn't be saying it as much bc there would be no need for it.
That's what I get for not double checking. I really wish the editing programs would spell check. I edit fast at times and just forget to check the spelling

Nice touch adding sexy party Solaire.

@@AccainGaming Btw I'm gonna headcanon that Richter eats floor chicken every time you use a healing spell.
Im not gonna lie Accain you and The Backlogs are my favorite souls tubers yall always make me laugh
Glad I could make you laugh!
The notched whip is an excellent off hand weapon in DS2, not for a challenge run or anything, it's just under used and underrated.
I respect the commitment to the "Beating Dark Souls with one weapon and no armor" series
Miracles only is actually a pretty fun run. You probably made it more difficult by including the whips.
im so glad i used headphones for this video, great video!
Thank you!
I'm not ****ing a Dennis tonight! (Sorry Dennis)
Can we all collectively appreciate that in the list for Pinwheel, it literally just says Pinwheel

This is the best piece of internet i have ever consumed.
I’ve been so excited for this video smh been searching “dark souls richter Belmont challenge run” every night for a week
Two handed R2 is how Franziska Von Karma uses whip
thank you for accepting my challenge, accain! i can't wait for the next streams and runs you'll do 👀👀
No problem Raffy, thank you for the suggestion!
Always looking forward to your videos! Keep up the grind bro!

Richter the whipter

But at what cost
You will die for what you have done this fateful day. Watch your cheecks at all time for they aren't safe while I'm still alive.

I mean any one that managed to beat this game with just the skull lantern is kind of good at the game so makes sense
Cool channel, glad i discovered your vids
Kink shamed those gargoyles into oblivion
What a legend really good video
Thank you!
No WOG yet Richter has an attack where he summons crosses around himself as an AOE.
Richter: "Look I defeated death and linked the fire."
Simon: "phff ok chun lee I defeated death twice and linking the fire is for wimps who can't handle some darkness. Disappointed."

havent even watched it yet but i already know its a banger!
i feel a little hot under the collar now thanks to all that whipping
😂
Sexy solair intro🗣️
I think Simon was the most naked Castlevania protag in Super Castlevania 4
Finally a video I can eat my snacks to
The list of bosses got me good.
You deserve more views and subs. These challenge videos are great. Ever thought of doing stuff like this in other souls games like Elden Ring?

The final fight was so painful live
Indeed it was lol
14:40 she ain't wanna be a ho. Makes it even sadder to see her die!! 😭
Wake up babe, Accain uploaded a new video ❤
Honestly, if you want to more closely resemble richter he is not only locked to miracles, he is specialized into sorceries and pyromancy, as he can use thise magics in the show and games, plus he regularly covers the whip with these magics, since the whip is already concentrated and imbued with alchemical power to fight demons honestly shouldnt need holy imbueification but dark souls so yknow.

Great video! If you want an idea for another challenge video you should try beating dark souls with the straight sword hilt
Yup, that's my next run and I will be doing it with no armor, no estus, cursed, and calamity ring
Honestly, I always wish that Konami made a souls-like Castlevania game and this is probably the closest we will get haha 😁
Praise the pain
AYO LESS GOO
The Strongest player in ds1
Someone needs to make a mod that makes some breakable walls with meat inside
Indeed
u gotta be enjoyin this shi fr 😭
yo, you got a typo in the keys description at 1:42
Lol yup. Down side to typing in the editor it doesn't let you know if a word Is misspelled or not
Skully scares me
You can beat dark souls in your underwear on level 1 with just your fist so yeah you can probably beat it like this
I agree
The Adventures of Richter "The Freak" Belmog
bro the backlogs put you in a video
Yup lol completely caught me off guard
How about a video where you do the opposite? where you try to get as overpowered as possible and beat everything in 1 or 2 hits if its possible
honey how did you make this entire amazing video but misspell miracle in the title at the start omg
Typing to fast and tunnel vision lol I am usually rushing to get the videos out so I end up missing a thing or two during the review process
SKULLY MY B E L O V E D 💀🖤
Don't worry 4 games later and whip still can't back stab or repose.
Wait even in ER it can't? I know In DS 2 you can backstab with them
I beat super ornstein so many times I fstarted to forget super smough. I die to super smough more than I die to super ornstein. I don't get why those attacks get you . They are very well telegrapht
I could say the same thing about Smough killing you lol
W another vid🎉
OG Dark souls enjoyers truly are a different breed 😂
I would have been ok if you had included the spiked whip into your arsenal and were allowed to wear clothes (No heavy plated or chain armor. Regular clothing or leather armor would have been fine).
Yeah, I just wanted to do no armor. I personally just like playing the game with none
Wait, why is Petrus the one that shall not be named ? lol
Should have named yourself “A Belmont?!?”
Dark Souls but
Dragon tooth only
no estus
no roll
no armor
cursed
calamity ring
dusk crown ring
you cannot kill enemy except bosses ?
🥺
👉 👈
I can add it to the list
But I will say I don't know if no roll is possible bc of Artorias but if I one shot him there might be a chance
With rtsr + power within + gold pine resin im pretty sure its free but since the ring slots are taken idk
I'm just curious to see how do you do with heavy weapon you don't use them much
yeah I prefer fast weapons in general, but I am up to plan it out
That boob song killed me.
How you teleported from Anor Londo without killing Fat and Skinny?
Been a min since I made the video but if you give me a time stamp I can check it out and see what you mean
Day 2 asking for the chaos blade with lowest life base (no estus) run. Great run!
