Crazy how Julia went from "Doofus has magical luck" to "Her reflexes. She's done it. She is Dark Soulsing!" and now with the BKH it's like Kronk: "Oh yea. It's all coming together."
I realized at the start of this stream that Julia, Jacob, and Nathan could effectively embody the concepts of Hear, See, and Speak No Evil - Julia couldn't hear, Jacob can't see colors, and Nathan just can't talk sometimes. Karina is clearly just Evil, which she'd probably be pleased to have recognized.
What Julia was saying about sirens is exactly the theme of Quelaag. The game is trying to trick you into thinking she's an evil seductress when in reality you're coming into her burrow to kill her and her family and she just happens to be attractive.
Jacob talking about his goofy dumbass moments in the beginning made me feel so seen. Sometimes going on autopilot really goes wrong if you’re not running on a full tank
@@andrewfleenor7459 I came so close to brushing my teeth with my acne cream bc the tubes are the same shape. My life flashed before my eyes that morning
I worked at a restaurant for a while and one day after a very long shift with a tour bus full of very fussy people I went into the employee locker room and took my apron off and then my trousers. I just fully went into "oh I'm getting ready for bed." mode. I'm so glad no one else was in the room.
I've played dark souls through a few times and watching these vods has opened me to new areas I didnt know existed and ways bosses could die I didnt know. We are truly blessed by these lovely humans
Don’t pretend to know things you don’t know; I nearly got arrested in a bullfrog buying sting operation when I was 16 because I pretended to already know buying bullfrog tadpoles was illegal when the dude selling them asked me; turns out he was with Lands and Forests and investigated my parents house to make sure I wasn’t running a smuggling ring. Admit when you don’t know something, y’all.
I come back to this video periodically, scroll down to this comment, and just wonder at the kind of silly things that exist, like "bullfrog buying stings". Glad you made it out ok!
@andrewfleenor7459 glad I could give you a moment of my habitual absurdity. 😅 I am currently debating getting my jaw X-Rayed to see if I broke a chip of bone off my chin. You see, it turns out if a young child puts some tea in a metal water bottle, and leaves it on their bedroom floor for an unknown length of time, the water bottle becomes a high pressure explosive canister/lid cannon. It turns out when opening a metal water bottle of unknown contents, one should not brace it against the chest and unscrew the lid pointing vertically to the underside of your chin. The bang that thing made was insane, and I blacked out for a split second immediately after. Apparently "shot in the chin with a water bottle pressure cannon" is a legitimate cause of accidental injury.
@@danielled8665dude it’s been a while since this comment but i feel like you must have some kind of fascinating autobiography you could write if this kind of thing is normal for you
2:01:36 Can you imagine, you're an undead, hours away from completely losing your mind, any you've got a Ring Wraith that comes at you with a naginata, only to evade you and take the stairs.
Julia's granny playthrough inspired me to start up the remaster it's been years since I played the original and I'm proud to say my first death this run was falling on the path to ash lake
i'm gonna leave these timestamps right here, both for myself and anyone else who might have a fear of spiders/spider webs/general spider related imagery: 28:03-29:29 1:26:00-1:27:33 1:28:32-1:31:24 1:32:11-1:48:05 1:53:29-1:56:45
Julia laughing so hard that she just completely ignores and doesn't even notice the rotating and advancing evil tree, the unknowingly runs past it as it tries to attack her
That olivia rodrigo/ariana grande joke was basically they're on screen relationship distilled into 30 seconds Edit: Okay the purple moss clump part is also pretty on point
I have not watched the whole stream yet, just the start, but I need to say: Julia, you being Grumpy in blightown is not wrong or even poor watching, the area is garbage, you're just mirroring all of our feelings going through it. Its carthatic.
Not even looking at the screen, just staring, deadeyed into the webcam, as Granny speedrolls through the swamp, dodging every fight, waltzing up to Quelaag, and circle stabbing her to death.
Unknown bit of lore - Quelaag bought Quelaag's Domain years ago, and keeps telling herself she'll make a website one of these days, but really just pays the renewal fee every year just in case she ever gets around to it
I know no one is going to see this since it’s been a long time since this play through came out but I was an editor on the recent Olivia Rodrigo Disney+ documentary and back when this first got posted to UA-cam I was watching parts of these streams during my lunch break and this one lined up the Olivia jokes section perfectly with while I was at lunch. Needless to say it was both a blessing and a curse to hear what I was working on be referenced during my break lol but my co workers and I all really got a good laugh from the puns! So thanks Jacob, Julia and chat for that gift during a day where I think I listened to Good 4 U approximately 60x already lololol excited to follow Sleepy Steve in Elden Ring and continue to follow the adventures of Granny Smith!
@@meatworld4776 Thank you ! I didn't know who Olivia Rodrigo was so I didn't know where to look. Julia really destroyed this joke, and just seeing her laughing afterwards made my day.
I had never gotten into Dark Souls before - I always got to Firelink, never knew what to do, and quit. This playthrough made me give it another try. I've basically been keeping pace with the VODs - its nice to finally vibe with the game, and I'm enjoying watching Julia's reactions to things that I just finished.
I’ve been doing the same, except this is my first time ever playing. I agree, it’s fun seeing their reactions to the same stuff, and watching Julia trash every boss I struggled with, lol (Also felt bad for Julia struggling through Blighttown as I basically skipped almost all of it by stumbling across the Drake Valley shortcut before going to the Depths)
@@TaylorMatthew714 That's awesome - are you very far ahead now? I nearly gave up at Blighttown because I couldn't figure out I was being shot by toxic darts. Julia got a bit ahead of me there and seeing that it wasn't just constant toxic status allowed me to forge ahead - just beat Quelaag earlier today just before seeing this VOD!
@@YesterdaysPants Yeah, I briefly explored Blighttown and the constant toxic darts were enough for me to head straight down into the swamp! I'm a bit further ahead now, I recently cleared Sen's fortress which is where Julia is going next. I've also explored some locations they haven't yet, but I was either underlevelled or didn't have a necessary item to finish those zones
@@TaylorMatthew714 Nice! I just started Sen's Fortress last night. But I'm also embarrassed to admit after watching this VOD that there appears to be a lot more to Darkroot Garden than I first explored. I'm also debating exploring more of New Londo Ruins - I got cursed a lot in the Depths and tried to go find the healer - I did ok for a bit but then looked up where to get a Purging Stone because being cursed takes a lot of the fun out.
@@YesterdaysPants I did New Londo Ruins just before Sen's Fortress, highly recommend getting cursed before you go there or it's a real pain. But I couldn't get very far, I think there's an item you get later that's needed to progress fully. You can still get to the Healer without the item, but that's as far as you can get.
10:17 OOO! OOO! IDEA FOR A EPISODE! Give Jacob 3 colourful pictures to draw, described by the others, but Jacob only has a jumbled greyscale pallet, then when each picture is finished, the pallet is swapped to the colour variants of what the swatch actually is.
Alternatively he could have just a jumbled pallet of colours all with varying shades so he cant really tell. and everyone can giggle at Jacob apply the wrong colours, then everyone can view it in greyscale.
My new year's resolution was "make 'cats wearing wizard hats' more of a thing", which I have successfully done; I have drawn a LOT of cats wearing wizard hats, and I also asked for that on my birthday (at the end of January), so yeah.
As Jacob was describing his incidents with the coffee/tea and then the bowl, I was nodding along like yup, definitely sounds like something I would do too. I then spilled a bowl of rice all over myself and the ground not 10 seconds later.
Oh Jacob...honey...no. I gotta say though that one time when I was having a very bad day I dumped the cheese powder into the water instead of the Mac once. I cried.
I tried doing coffee tea just bc I still had a teabag, so it was basically murky water plus some coffee and my thought was: green tea doesn't taste anything that will upset coffee since it was just water. so I did got a very special drink that is recommended once in a bluemoon
love rewatching these and after having done my own playthrough, it's wild that Julia never found Power Within (and the very cool crimson robes which some are better than the gold hemmed outfit) because it'd be funny to explain how it takes away 1% of your health every second for 100 seconds for a 1.4x damage boost. It was a crutch of my playthrough and it's still so cool to me. Completely understand her not wanting to explore blighttown cuz it is a gross nightmare while she had an unupgraded weapon
@@ksdajkfahgdkhsdag I was wondering what you're problem is, but now I see/remember you're that weirdo who likes to randomly comment odd negative things to people. I can relate to his day very well, is all I'm saying.
Hot take: New Londo Ruins is my favorite area in the game. I spent so much time there farming for Slabs (the Darkwraiths can drop them) that it just grew on me.
As a Canadian who has been to both New York and Toronto… it’s really weird just how much downtown Toronto is modelled after Manhattan. I’ve been to Toronto a hundred times, and when I went to Manhattan for the first time it felt familiar, like I’d been there. It’s like New York is just a bigger version of Toronto. Anything I dislike about Toronto times 4. Also, what’s with EVERY SINGLE business in NYC not having a bathroom available? I’m convinced there are 3 bathrooms in all of Manhattan.
The bathroom thing is (I think) an anti homeless thing where there aren’t bathrooms available to keep away the people that businesses don’t like, or if they are available you have to be a customer. It’s super shitty
the regular halberd actually outdamages the bkh at 40/40. food for thought if you go quality. bkh is only used for speedruns because of how fast it gets huge damage, how easy it is to get early, and how quickly you can two hand it. but it weighs a shit ton and isnt actually the best weapon in the game, let alone the best halberd. theres a reason lucerne, basic halberd and great scythe dominate pvp and bkh is nonexistant
Jacob only feed Julia minimal information though. It's unlikely that he will tell her about quality build. So for someone first playthrough it's faire to assume bkh would be the best weapon to wield. Although it might be slightly too overpowered and make some of the bosses easier that they need to be.
This is one of the reasons that I really like Bloodborne and Sekiro, but I tend to not fuck with Dark Souls: the goddamn meta-game. I'd like to go in blind, but I always feel like I must be fucking up whatever is "optimal" and it's making the game harder.
@@mastermarkus5307 theres no hard rules and nothing from stopping you from going like sl110 or something on a first playthrough and just steamrolling things if it gets rough for you. these kinds of optimized musings are only thrown out for the sake of the guiding hand in playthroughs like these that might feel the urge to nudge someone in a less stressful direction in times of need. stuff like this even exists in bloodborne, with things like bone ash cannon, beast claw boss rushing, etc. actually i remember bone ash cannon getting nerfed into the dirt, but there was a time. 'wreck a fool' weren't no nonsense meme. dark souls 2 is the only game where its actually possible to kind of ruin a build in the literal sense. but thankfully, darksouls 2 also drowns you in levels and gives you reset items to completely reallocate every point in your build when you eventually learn that not leveling adaptability ruins your ability to roll good. the thing i pointed out about halberds is really only a tip worth mentioning because you can wear more armor with a less fuckoff heavy halberd and because BK weapons have less than great heavy attacks. except the axe. BKGA golf swings are my entire world. bless that fucking axe. but the knight halberd is still a weapon that can and does easily speed run the game, even if its not super optimal in a slower setting with more options available, its still going to delete anything you drop it on. but anyways. dont level resistance and stick to 2 or less damage stats is literally all you need to know to fly through dark souls ezpz. the rest is gravy
There is no misery to accompany with Blighttown. Blighttown's reputation came from the fact that it was like 5-10fps at all times... XD But it's reputation preceeds it these days.
Rewatching this vod and hearing that so many people hadn't seen the ass pores move just further confirms to me that I have the most bizarre forms of luck as Kellogg has used that in almost every fight I've had with her

"Ariana grande, what are you doing here" is best joke ever uttered.
My sense of humor is also the comedic equivalent of kicking someone down a flight of stairs.
I realized at the start of this stream that Julia, Jacob, and Nathan could effectively embody the concepts of Hear, See, and Speak No Evil - Julia couldn't hear, Jacob can't see colors, and Nathan just can't talk sometimes.
Karina is clearly just Evil, which she'd probably be pleased to have recognized.
this is the best comment you win
Karina is fuck no evil, since she is ace.
Sometimes the monkey figures are depicted with a fourth actually, "Do No Evil". ...Yeah, still works. XD
What Julia was saying about sirens is exactly the theme of Quelaag. The game is trying to trick you into thinking she's an evil seductress when in reality you're coming into her burrow to kill her and her family and she just happens to be attractive.

I laughed really hard at the second one both because it was hilarious and also because I've done things approximately that dumb before.

Edit: Okay the purple moss clump part is also pretty on point
rewatching b/c I have no life and I still laughed at this part while drinking my coffee it made me choke and cough/laugh for a solid minute.

honestly, if julia got to blighttown and just breezed through cheerily, it would be deeply alien
Not even looking at the screen, just staring, deadeyed into the webcam, as Granny speedrolls through the swamp, dodging every fight, waltzing up to Quelaag, and circle stabbing her to death.
Already watched the stream. Now rewatching the VOD. Julia's "joke" at 49:40 still caught me so off-guard. Its my favourite joke ever I cant
Jacob's silence for a few seconds after just makes it so much funnier for some reason omg
I just got to that point and I've been laughing for at least 5 minutes and everything hurts
Unknown bit of lore - Quelaag bought Quelaag's Domain years ago, and keeps telling herself she'll make a website one of these days, but really just pays the renewal fee every year just in case she ever gets around to it
This gave me a good chuckle
Julia’s comment of “I did everything for the Onion boy” when Sen’s gate was opened really hits different if you know
Just the whole bit starting at 1:32:27 was living rent-free in my head all day
Jacob's "Hey Google. How it's always night time in garden?" activated my phone.... it also did not understand the question.
I'm so glad these vods exist. absolutely living for this dark souls playthrough :D

For all y’all who don’t like spiders or spider related things such as spider eggs they are in the spider lady’s area at around 1:26:00 to 1:27:34
Julia's perfect deadpan "it just is." Slayed me.
I tried doing coffee tea just bc I still had a teabag, so it was basically murky water plus some coffee and my thought was: green tea doesn't taste anything that will upset coffee since it was just water. so I did got a very special drink that is recommended once in a bluemoon

"Its Poodle Out Here" :) That's amazing. best reaction ever!!!
40:19 “In 2022, I vow…” my brain: ‘as a scientist and businessman, that my duties to human kind will be fulfilled! Thank you… Thank you…’

the regular halberd actually outdamages the bkh at 40/40. food for thought if you go quality. bkh is only used for speedruns because of how fast it gets huge damage, how easy it is to get early, and how quickly you can two hand it. but it weighs a shit ton and isnt actually the best weapon in the game, let alone the best halberd. theres a reason lucerne, basic halberd and great scythe dominate pvp and bkh is nonexistant
Jacob only feed Julia minimal information though. It's unlikely that he will tell her about quality build. So for someone first playthrough it's faire to assume bkh would be the best weapon to wield. Although it might be slightly too overpowered and make some of the bosses easier that they need to be.
This is one of the reasons that I really like Bloodborne and Sekiro, but I tend to not fuck with Dark Souls: the goddamn meta-game. I'd like to go in blind, but I always feel like I must be fucking up whatever is "optimal" and it's making the game harder.
@@mastermarkus5307 theres no hard rules and nothing from stopping you from going like sl110 or something on a first playthrough and just steamrolling things if it gets rough for you. these kinds of optimized musings are only thrown out for the sake of the guiding hand in playthroughs like these that might feel the urge to nudge someone in a less stressful direction in times of need. stuff like this even exists in bloodborne, with things like bone ash cannon, beast claw boss rushing, etc. actually i remember bone ash cannon getting nerfed into the dirt, but there was a time. 'wreck a fool' weren't no nonsense meme.
dark souls 2 is the only game where its actually possible to kind of ruin a build in the literal sense. but thankfully, darksouls 2 also drowns you in levels and gives you reset items to completely reallocate every point in your build when you eventually learn that not leveling adaptability ruins your ability to roll good. the thing i pointed out about halberds is really only a tip worth mentioning because you can wear more armor with a less fuckoff heavy halberd and because BK weapons have less than great heavy attacks. except the axe. BKGA golf swings are my entire world. bless that fucking axe. but the knight halberd is still a weapon that can and does easily speed run the game, even if its not super optimal in a slower setting with more options available, its still going to delete anything you drop it on.
but anyways. dont level resistance and stick to 2 or less damage stats is literally all you need to know to fly through dark souls ezpz. the rest is gravy
I love Jacob's very real "what are you talking about? why did you ruin my joke with nothing?"
That story about the coffee and the bowel... Fuck, that got me. I've so been there, man.
2:03:00 made me fucking cry laughing he said it so fast
There is no misery to accompany with Blighttown. Blighttown's reputation came from the fact that it was like 5-10fps at all times... XD
But it's reputation preceeds it these days.
Oh God, the swamp. Good luck.
this has been my favorite game that y'all have played.
You're poisoned! RIGHT! *NOW!*
Julia is truly the chosen undead.
The Darude Sandstorm joke was powerful
Rewatching this vod and hearing that so many people hadn't seen the ass pores move just further confirms to me that I have the most bizarre forms of luck as Kellogg has used that in almost every fight I've had with her
julia just dropped a soulja boy reference im here for it
Dapolite Sandstorm...
Was watching the Livestream and wondering why I was so lost. Didn't realize this one takes place after Blight Town 😅

54:58 I was singing “with or without” you from U2. Her’s was better.
1:32:25 Sienfeld moment
I want a relationship with myself, like Jacob and Julia have with each other. They're adorable!
I googled baby snoopy and the sleeping one almost killed me it was so cute
