      Had something similar in salt and sacrifice. I would join a session as a dawn light(pve co op faction) and me and a couple of my fellow dawn bros helped this one new player get the hang of the game when all of a sudden a chaos hunter "invaded"(I say this cause these kinds of players are unpredictable and can either help the player, kill the player or kill invading players and it's best to be careful when you see them.) coming in with a chainsaw sword and I thought "welp. We're screwed. He's gonna kill us" but he didn't. I guess he didn't he didn't find it fun to invade new players cause he waved at us, wanted to shake hands with us and help us. It's when a shroud alliance(pvp faction) player decided to invade the poor new player but was eviscerated by the chaos hunter's chainsaw sword. The rest of the session was us helping the new guy deal with the fire mage and he barely survived.

      My first time back to DS in the remaster, I'd forgotten a lot of the game, and a phantom showed up in Anor Londo who guided me all the way to O&S. He kept putting his sign down until we got there. It was so satisfying to get the chance to do the same for other new/returning players as I was farming souls at O&S after beating them.

I only watched this video and the Dark Souls one, but the were probably the best ones i've seen so far (and i'm watching a lot of those lately cause i'm revisiting the game).

I'll do it through the game, too, to help bring some levity after some hard/tense moments.

    @scrumpyswaggin 7 місяців тому +1

    I feel you big time bossman, with the entire section on why it took so long to make the video. I've been trying to make my first video for about a year and a half now and I keep on either restarting the whole thing back to square one half way through production because I started doubting my own abilities and thinking that "This is actual garbage, nobody is going to bother sitting through this" or because I got hit with a massive creative block for weeks on end and come back to go "I guess I have to start over now because the entire vibe of the video will be thrown off now that its been so long". I want to make something that will inspire other people to create something after watching from the passion and love I put into the final product, but I always end up feeling that it isn't enough. I haven't touched the project in about 2 months because of these feelings and cause other things taking up my free time, but the amount of love, effort, and passion for making something worth watching that radiates through the whole video has inspired me to give it another shot, I still have my doubts of course but seeing somebody make something of this level that's gone through similar struggles makes me feel that MAYBE I can do it.
    Tldr: You did good lol

    Just doing my part for the algorythm, me copying my comment from the last video:
    I fell in love with the Souls franchise after finishing Elden Ring (having played DS3 and Bloodborne before). Elden Ring was the moment it clicked, I fell into the good old rabit hole of going back to Dark Souls, replay evey single game, watch every 10 hours retrospectives/reviews, watch vaad lore videos. And you might be wondering what I'm cooking: Well, friend, your review is the greatest review of Dark Souls I have seen so far, and belive me - I have seen a whole lot. Your review would be the greatest way to explain to a newcomer to the series why this series is so special. Thank you very much and good job!

  • @howdyfriends7950
    @howdyfriends7950 Місяць тому

    oh! the reason he had the box on his head, it's the symbol of avarice, it's a helmet that's shaped like a mimic, it gives you extra souls and raises your item discovery, but it slowly depletes your health while you wear it.
    you know how it takes a second to get all the souls from beating a boss? if you put it on right when you beat the boss, you still get the bonus to the souls without having to deal with losing health during the fight, I'm not sure if the item discovery works, like getting the taurus demon to drop the demon greataxe, but it can multiply your souls and it stacks with the silver covetous serpent ring
    it does not stack with the gold covetous serpent ring, but it does the same thing as the gold ring, and, like the gold ring, it stacks with 10 soft humanity to give you 410 item discovery

    I am kinda late to the party, but I think the reason why your original video has now over 1 million views, is EXACTLY that it has no parts @26:06 . Seeing as follow up videos / Part videos (just like this extra one) usually tend to have far less Views and interactions.. I think what you've created here is an amazing piece of entertainment, both in a very objective and composition kind of way and yet also in a crazily funny and personal way. Embarking on this journey together with you, throughout both videos, I've not only grown to this channel, but also felt like sitting right next to you on a couch, enjoying some food n drinks while wittnessing you playing through one of my favorite video game series in my life.
    Thanks man. And if you do your follow ups or any future projects in parts- i'll be there to watch and comment on them. However: I really enjoyed having it in a longer format like it is now. Having watched this extra video right after I found the original just gave me a feeling of being part of the journey, and I think that's what made 1+m people stick to it. Thanks for this amazing piece of content and weirdly making me aspire to create similar feats

    Tyriel put the “box” (Symbol of Avarice) on his head to increase the number of souls awarded after the fight. If you’re quick enough, after a boss dies but before souls are awarded, you can put on the Silver Serpent Ring and Symbol of Avarice to boost the souls by +44%. I did it all the time when I was going for all the achievements in Dark Souls.

    Priscilla calling the inhabitants of Ariamis kind and the land being peaceful I believe is just her talking about the past Ariamis when it wasn't rotting, or maybe just talking about a completely different group that we didn't meet. If she really meant what she told us, then Ariandel probably wouldn't exist, because it is required to burn Ariamis in order to move to Ariandel or Ariabeforedel. Priscilla would've been against burning the peaceful land and the kind inhabitants, no? The painter in DS3 is most likely a descendant of Priscilla, further suggesting that she was simply ignorant on what was actually going on when we visited, because the painter's existence in DS3 is a possible proof for Priscilla's involvement to the burning of Ariamis.

    I hollowed, I gave up on my journey in dark souls one. But after watching both of these videos, I'm coming back and I'm beating that damn game.

    Ever play Armored Core? I know everyone's doing it now but it's fun watching people find out the similarities to other FromSoft games. One of the emulators has mouse look if you're scared of janky digital controls.
    edit: You make good videos, with quality like this people will keep coming back no matter how long it takes, the only thing telling you to make more things quicker is UA-cam as a faceless corporate entity. Take as long as you need and whatever you make will be good.

    I found your channel recently while I was on a Subnautica kick, due to another youtube duo doing a blind playthrough (one of which has thalassaphobia), and Im genuinely glad that I found you. Your commentary and humor really gel with me and has gotten quite a few chuckles outta me. I can't wait to see what else you do in the future and perhaps I'll pop into your twitch stream to lurk and have a few laughs.

    Having watched the original video several times, I DID notice the lack of finger discussion.
    I, however, didn't want to be the "UMM AcTuAlLy!!" individual in the comments as I figured others were going to anyway. Glad that wasn't the case. 😄

    Funny you should bring up the reputation the games have for being hard. For years I would casually watch lore videos because the world of Dark Souls just seemed so interesting! However, I felt due to their reputation that I would just become frustrated and that they wouldn't be for me to play. But when Elden Ring came out I figured I would jump in and I was dragged in. For the majority of my 1st playthrough in ER it felt tense, like I was afraid of every shadow and thought I was going to die at any moment, and I did die a lot. But then the deaths stop being something you are afraid of and really ER gives you so much that its like you can tailor how hard of a time you have just by your in game choices. I thought eh maybe that isn't how they were in Dark Souls but no, I am now working my way through the last DLC of DS3 (The Ringed City) to finish up the trilogy since I pretty much bought all 3 DS games after I finished ER. The tools are still there for sure and as I played more I used them less and less.

    Thank you so much for such an interesting and well thought out video. It may have taken you a while but it was well worth the time you spent on it. A true new addition to the Dark Souls fandom and lorethru's, and I found your take on environmental storytelling truly enlightening. Stay safe and give yourself the credit you deserve :)

    I'm not joking when I say that I've easily put 100 or so views on your DS1 video all by myself. 😂 It's one of my favourite Dark Souls videos to watch right now, whether I need background noise or I'm just cooped up on a rainy day. And you honestly came the closest to explaining just... what it is about Dark Souls 1 that's so oddly alluring...
    I love your vids, I've been watching some of your streams, and can't wait to see what you make next, Seth. Especially that little idea of making more Dark Souls vids like this! 😁

    The difficulty debate is one that I find mentioning good points that end up fitting a lot more to the experimental aspect of FromSoftware's games than anything. It's also where the reason I still haven't finished Elden Ring for lies: The incredible leaps in open world design that the game took made the boss design suffer greatly. The best analogy I could find was this: If you aren't using magic or overpowered weaponry, then most of the bosses end up becoming Sonic duplicates while you're still playing slowly. Now given, part of that is just that I love going for hard hitting weapons while sacrificing my defense and speed, but I still feel like a mandatory boss like Morgott should be giving me ample time to get a hit in between his combos without risking a hit myself.

    Weird commont, with the whole explination of the "Git Gud" part at the start, it kind reminds me what happened in math school when I was little(trust me I am going somewhere with this)
    We had been starting to learn multiplication and everyone had a school agend which had a chart attachted to it which gave the results for a good chunk of the multiplication problems that I had in my assingments. When my mom saw me using them she asked "Is that cheating?" And with the logic that I had at the time, while we were banned from using calculators, the teacher said nothing about our agendas being used. So I said, with confidence, "It's not cheating, it's using your resources." And even with that chart, I still eventually learned a good chunk of multiplication to get by, and my teacher never brought it up as a point of contention beacuse they still wanted me to learn and keep learning.
    In this example, using magic, great shields, summons, they are just more resources for you to use. The game never out right says that you can't use them unless maybe you don't have the resources or stats nessisary for them, so in reality it doesn't cheat out the experiance of the game that you still need to learn around it. It's not cheating, it's using your resources.
