Hey guys, it's Shez. I hope you have fun with Seasoning Ash. This parody contains literally hundreds of hidden secrets (you blink and you miss them) and I hope you guys will be able to uncover them with time. You might think I'm crazy but, I honestly can't wait to start working on the third and LAST chapter of this trilogy. I've got everything ready to go, tons of ideas already written down. But I do have to take just a small break though, for my health. I went to the dietitian just today for a visit, and I'm alarmingly underweight (since you asked, it's because i was not sleeping regularly and skipping meals at times). But still, my motivation is sky high \o/ Thanks to you all, for the amazing support.

18:50 is _exactly_ how I beat this guy the first time. Okay, so maybe I _followed_ him off the cliff a second later, but the game still counted it as a win, so...
@@BlackKaiserDrake Yeah, up at this point in the game, Hostile NPC's became easy for me. But then, I tended to use very large weapons like the Lothric Knight Greatsword that just seem to cut right through their defenses. Havel was the only one that gave me genuine trouble.
@@BlackKaiserDrake Ah, well I was in agreement with you that at this point in the game the hostile NPC’s are mostly on the easy side. To the point that the beefier of the common enemies are actually much harder.
7:50: for those don’t know, Untended graves is basically a glimpse of what would happen if the World went dark. As written in the description of his gear, champion Gundyr was late to the firelink shrine, And he couldn’t link the flame.He was later best to buy a champion, most likely the unkindled one, And became a sheath for the coiled sword, Hoping one day someone would remove the sword and link the flame again
The Untended Graves seems to be your world's past, hence Iudex Gundyr not having a soul since you already took it in his past, leaving an empty shell inhabited by a pus of man. If you somehow never talk to the Handmaid but talk to the one in Untended Graves before talking to yours for the first time, she acts like you look familiar. Even if the fire isn't linked and things sink into darkness, it's fated to repeat in a cycle.
You even got ThePruld and VaatyVidia here? Congratulations! Great love from Italy! the comedy and animation skills really improved, I really appreciate all the effort you put on these videos, instasubscription!
Andrew Heumann lol (Still not that hard in my opinion though, but that's just me, I can get why people stuggle against him, big, tank and hits like a truck)

when i first killed his dragon i thought it was over when he started attacking me i was like"ohhhh this is gonna be a long ride"to this day i have never beaten him he's just soo fucking fast :(
And you deserve it. A near half hour of animation?! You're a mad man and I love you for it. Everything about this made me laugh to the point of crying. You rule!

Who cares? The animation is great for sure, but the jokes are hit and miss and they steal jokes from TFS from what I've noticed. Watch Happy Souls and you'll understand what happens when people give 100%.
The amount of detail in this is astonishing, yes of course i died laughing because the references are surreal, but i stop almost every couple frames to see the little details you have added, its a genius work and thats for all your effort.
No words can describe this masterpiece. I can't even imagine how much time and effort it took to make such an insane, fun, detailed and so good looking animation. Shez's channel is so underrated and deserves way more attention and support UwU
Just a flat out amazing video, had so many laughs watching it and the jokes/dialogue were spot on perfect. Seasoned Knight for the future finale is going to be epic. You deserve a well earned break, and to take care yourself. Thank you for the content! #TheDorkKnightRises
Your first dark souls video pushed me to buy dark souls 3. I remember just watching a little bit everytime I progressed, and now, a year later, after completing the dlcs and the two other games, I can say it was worth the wait. Thank you for showing me such a cool game, and thank you for this animation!
I just returned from my vacation and now this! Great work, Shez and all other Voice Actors. I am honored to be a part of it, even a very little one. Love this cartoon!
As of 4:16 I'm subscribing. I used to only have one video of yours I'd go back to for nostalgia, and to briefly wonder if anyone still plays DS3 enough to warrant playing it again in 2020. This video though has obviously had much more effort put into it... or rather, that's not right. This video perfectly showcases your animation ability in snapshot fashion compared to the other DS video. It's very apparent that you've picked up new animating skills, and it really affects your content. LOVED the video, keep it up please
Doubt you'll see this, but holy Hell you outdid yourself this time. That was phenomenal! I loved every second of this. I've been excited for this for so long, and seeing all the sneak peaks on Patreon was awesome! (and seeing my name in the video lol) You should definitely take a well deserved rest after this one. Thank you so much for all of your hard work, for our entertainment.
*Praise the Sun, Shez is back* Always a pleasure to see all your hard work on display. The comedy keeps getting better & the animation more fluid, you ambitious fool I completely related to improving your craft *you've also inspired me to make my own animations* I hope to have made 2 videos by my birthday in March - wish me luck
Dude this is INCREDIBLE!!! As a fellow animator I can understand the patience and effort this takes!! Well done dude, your detail, colour, animation, voice acting, staging and sound editing is just AWESOME!!! Keep up the hard work, love your stuff!! ❤️
beclet Beclet, thank you very much for all the compliments. That's high praise. And I wish you good luck with your animations. It's a jungle in here on UA-cam for people like us but we have to walk tall.
Honestly I love these. As someone who never even played dark souls but my friends who have played them and them talking about it,you perfectly encapsulate how they describe it! In gorgeous animation too!
as if ez with the poison spell maybee but as a mele fighter nameless ist the ez just beat him hours ago in 2-3 trys close combat ofcorse. Gale is and stays the worst for me
Liqued the easiest of the three is midir, for sure in my mind, followed by nameless and gael is painful at sl1... I first tried midir even in sl1 so that shows he's easy as shit, nameless took me about 15 tries in sl1 and gael... I stopped counting at 30... Lol Gael is the hardest of the game for me, followed closely by friede...
Came to your channel as a fan of dark souls, left as a fan of your art. This is unbelievably gorgeous man. I love how stylized you get with some of the sequences too. The sheer density of each frame, and the number of them… it’s breathtaking, honestly. Animation can be an arduous task, but seeing stuff like this makes it all seem worthwhile
So a lot of the time, there are "Strong Independent female characters" for diversity points, usually to appease the more left-oriented audience. The joke here, is that Shezmen was about to make one of those jokes when Samus, the ORIGINAL strong independent female character, comes in, shoots the hell out of Friede, and tells Shezmen to suck her off as an indicator she is tired of that dumbass diversity-points acquiring joke. At least, that's how I interpreted it.
OMG YES!! ALWAYS WORTH THE WAIT!! I've only played Darksouls 1, I Bought 2 and 3 solely because your videos always made me laugh even though I didn't fully understand it. Now that I've played 2 and 3 I feel like you're videos are godsent.
starting from 6 minutes( for no apparent reason) these are the ones I found. 6:04 Cuphead reference? 6:39 Dead worm from the old Worms games 7:44 Insight from bloodborne on shelf 8:20 On the wall is ctrl c + ctrl v which are the hotkeys for copy and paste 12:14 he throws a saw cleaver from bloodborne from his inventory 12:12 dragon ballz (perhaps a trophy from the wyvern?) 14:50 you can see... meatboy?, in the top left? 16:08 in honor of siegward we have siegdog 16:44 kylo rens helmet 18:09 getting over it with bennet foddy cauldron and hammer 18:52 little chain chomp plant behind Matthew 19:17 on the right is a book about cainhurst, a location from bloodborne 19:43 don't talk about it 19:46 kinder egg (flashbacks) 23:15 the symbol on sheiks outfit is on the book on the table on 26:17 obviously samus (almost done with super metroid btw) well if I missed anything past 6 min tell me. (ALSO, super great job with the animation work this is really well done
Absolutely loved this, was worth the wait. You are awesome man, keep up the great work. Plus throwing this out there it was me and my brothers b-day yesterday, so seeing this the next day was perfect. Thank you :)
Omg man,it was brilliant.The animation,the jokes,the cast and of course the voices.I was waiting a long time for this cartoon and it was worth as always.Keep up the good woooooork!!![We are counting on you]
I barely know anything about dark souls other than that it's a really really REALLY hard game but, your animations and creativity makes it very entertaining to watch, as you animate your struggles throughout the game. Great work man!
It's rather difficult, but you can't go in expecting not to die. You definitely will. Alot. But, every death is a learning experience. You learn more each time. What to do to such and such boss, when to do it, etc. It's an AMAZINGLY well made game series. If you haven't played any of them, you should look in to trying one. You'll fall in love with it. I've made new characters on DS3 about 4 times, and logged AT LEAST 100 hours on each character because it's so good.
Hey Matthew! Wonderful job you did there! I hope we will see another episode next year :D this was really amazing! The quality of the animation is astonishing :D Can't wait to see how you"ll do the Ringed City DLC :D
That was very funny. Although, I found the nameless king easier than frida. If you thought the first DLC was tough, just wait until the second one. It will kick you ass. Can't wait to see that parody.
Hi Demons in Pain and from Below! (Dies from burns) Hi Half-light! (Dies to Spears of the Church) Hi Midir! (Dies to darkness beam) Hi Gael! (Just dies)
Keep forgetting to mention that you missed one on the burned alive counter. There were 7. You're still awesome Shez! List below: Dancer 3:56 Demon Ruins 7:24 Arch Dragon Peak 12:03 and 12:51 Ariandel 14:0924:18 and 26:16 (even if it was Friede and not really burned alive but you counted it)
I will always be supporting this channel because of the effort that goes into these videos. No matter the cost we -your fans- will follow you to the end of earth to see you complete your dreams of animating. ^~^

I remember just watching a little bit everytime I progressed, and now, a year later, after completing the dlcs and the two other games, I can say it was worth the wait. Thank you for showing me such a cool game, and thank you for this animation!
I just returned from my vacation and now this! Great work, Shez and all other Voice Actors. I am honored to be a part of it, even a very little one. Love this cartoon!
Gameomat Es ist der große Gameomat!
xD
Gameomat du hast wohl genauso gespannt drauf gewartet 😁
Thank you for all the effort dude! Cheers ;)
Alles falsch in Dork Souls 3??? =D
18:44 the animation on that fire is really good
This is honestly some how way better than the first. All the little things put in were just great. You are an absolute legend for making this
thanks man, i do appreciate this one better than the first, i've put more hours in it after all too.
man! this animations are just PERFECT! great work man... totally worth the wait
thanks ^^
This isn't even the true hell of dark souls.
The ringed city calls for you Matthew
The archers, they're waiting
The onion ring city.
I was warned about the ringed city... the only tough part are the damn angles
@ETHAN CARTER luck is useless in dark souls
ETHAN CARTER unless you have a bleed build but who even uses these
As of 4:16 I'm subscribing. I used to only have one video of yours I'd go back to for nostalgia, and to briefly wonder if anyone still plays DS3 enough to warrant playing it again in 2020. This video though has obviously had much more effort put into it... or rather, that's not right. This video perfectly showcases your animation ability in snapshot fashion compared to the other DS video. It's very apparent that you've picked up new animating skills, and it really affects your content. LOVED the video, keep it up please
Doubt you'll see this, but holy Hell you outdid yourself this time. That was phenomenal! I loved every second of this. I've been excited for this for so long, and seeing all the sneak peaks on Patreon was awesome! (and seeing my name in the video lol) You should definitely take a well deserved rest after this one. Thank you so much for all of your hard work, for our entertainment.
thank you SO much dude! :) Never doubt that i will read an awesome comment like this one. ;)
*Praise the Sun, Shez is back* Always a pleasure to see all your hard work on display. The comedy keeps getting better & the animation more fluid, you ambitious fool I completely related to improving your craft *you've also inspired me to make my own animations* I hope to have made 2 videos by my birthday in March - wish me luck
Good luck dude!!
Dude this is INCREDIBLE!!! As a fellow animator I can understand the patience and effort this takes!! Well done dude, your detail, colour, animation, voice acting, staging and sound editing is just AWESOME!!! Keep up the hard work, love your stuff!! ❤️
beclet Beclet, thank you very much for all the compliments. That's high praise. And I wish you good luck with your animations. It's a jungle in here on UA-cam for people like us but we have to walk tall.
Matthew Shezmen You're very welcome! Thank you for bringing us such good content :) and you're not wrong! Keep grinding :)
I died at the Sailor Soul transformation. As a child of the 90s, YESSSS, PRAISE THE SUN (AND THE SOLAR SYSTEM MAKE-UP!)
Your first Dork Souls video was already good... but this was even better! Really good job!
A "the pruld" cameo! I love you boy!
OMG thank you so much for this!! You worked so hard! Now its time for me to enjoy this master piece. May the flames guide thee.
sarah p Lady maria's hat 23:23
Honestly I love these. As someone who never even played dark souls but my friends who have played them and them talking about it,you perfectly encapsulate how they describe it! In gorgeous animation too!
Now for The Ringed City
UnbrokenBrony If he isnt ready for Nameless he isnt ready for Gael and Midir.
Gael is more easy than nameless on my mind but midir...
as if ez with the poison spell maybee but as a mele fighter nameless ist the ez just beat him hours ago in 2-3 trys close combat ofcorse. Gale is and stays the worst for me
Axel Genestoux I had zero Problems with Nameless King but i had many problems with Gael. I died 136 times to Gael.
Liqued the easiest of the three is midir, for sure in my mind, followed by nameless and gael is painful at sl1... I first tried midir even in sl1 so that shows he's easy as shit, nameless took me about 15 tries in sl1 and gael... I stopped counting at 30... Lol Gael is the hardest of the game for me, followed closely by friede...
Damn, Lady Elfriede is really badass, just like this animation
Thank you dude and yes, Friede is fucking awesome.
Matthew Shezmen You're welcome and yeah, she's one of the best characters. Waifu for laifu
Sunlight Prince
Yeah her face is actually pretty beautiful.
Sunlight Prince so fucking funny
NCR Elite Riot Officer I wish there was a marry system
HOLY DUDE, WOW, YOU ARE GREAT TO ANIMATE THIS VIDEOS
and...PRAISE THE SUN! Bella thePruld!!
Ma chissene del terzo epispdio!
Came to your channel as a fan of dark souls, left as a fan of your art. This is unbelievably gorgeous man. I love how stylized you get with some of the sequences too. The sheer density of each frame, and the number of them… it’s breathtaking, honestly. Animation can be an arduous task, but seeing stuff like this makes it all seem worthwhile
Samus coming in out of nowhere as a middle finger to the "Strong Independent Women" joke cliche was honestly the cherry on top.
thanks man : )>
I don’t understand this reference. Can you explain?
So a lot of the time, there are "Strong Independent female characters" for diversity points, usually to appease the more left-oriented audience. The joke here, is that Shezmen was about to make one of those jokes when Samus, the ORIGINAL strong independent female character, comes in, shoots the hell out of Friede, and tells Shezmen to suck her off as an indicator she is tired of that dumbass diversity-points acquiring joke.
At least, that's how I interpreted it.
That were some A+ animation skills and A+ cameos, even though I didn't saw Stan Lee in there
man this is so good xD
a wild dopatwo apeared.
oh no, i've fucked up! it's an enemy stan!
*"Dendi is just a number" - MMR*
Enemy Hammod plsssssss
When you're Italian and know what he's saying at 15:27 🤣🤣
What did he sayd, I NEED TO KNOW
@@generaminutemenow676 turn on subtitles and you can find out
21:01 I didn't know you got Tarantino to do a shot for your animation, that's so cool!
SNOW SOS Dude I'm so glad you got that reference
Need some explanation..
when the game said you are not rddy that was the perfect moment for kratos to pop in there and say 'boy'
so true
oh god
OMG YES!! ALWAYS WORTH THE WAIT!! I've only played Darksouls 1, I Bought 2 and 3 solely because your videos always made me laugh even though I didn't fully understand it. Now that I've played 2 and 3 I feel like you're videos are godsent.
That's so kind, thanks man!
Rasean Dilligard you used the wrong you're lol your*

+Abused Lady Maria esattamente
Absolutely loved this, was worth the wait. You are awesome man, keep up the great work. Plus throwing this out there it was me and my brothers b-day yesterday, so seeing this the next day was perfect. Thank you :)
Seeing an upload from him is a great present, every time.
7.62 x39mm indeed
I always knew Vaati was Velka in secret
The Ashen Hollow is talks too much of Velka to actually be Velka. Vaati is way more suspicious.
This is not only insanely entertaining but also insanely accurate! The best way to see these is right after beating the game :D
You know you're not ready for the boss when the fog wall kills you.
Khang Le i was just saying that
Made me laugh.... so true.
Omg man,it was brilliant.The animation,the jokes,the cast and of course the voices.I was waiting a long time for this cartoon and it was worth as always.Keep up the good woooooork!!![We are counting on you]
I'm glad dude!! ^^
OMG you're so amazing
*I'd just wish you put more ad rolls. You really really deserve it!*
Well, his Patreon seems healthy.
ILLuminated Onxy I'm supporting him with youtube red
Mr.Death uh what?
the detailing and editing for this series, is out of this world! thank you for all of these
21:34
"Hey, don't worry buddy, I'll take care of her."
*She's strapped, fires, and he ducks for it*
"...what!"
And they say Infinity War is the most ambitious crossover ever.
You got ThePruld and VaatiVidya in one video!
Beautiful animation as always. Your work is a fucking inspiration and you should be very proud of it.
Aww dude Thanks!!
Matthew Shezmen No problem!
I barely know anything about dark souls other than that it's a really really REALLY hard game but, your animations and creativity makes it very entertaining to watch, as you animate your struggles throughout the game. Great work man!
It's rather difficult, but you can't go in expecting not to die. You definitely will. Alot. But, every death is a learning experience. You learn more each time. What to do to such and such boss, when to do it, etc. It's an AMAZINGLY well made game series. If you haven't played any of them, you should look in to trying one. You'll fall in love with it. I've made new characters on DS3 about 4 times, and logged AT LEAST 100 hours on each character because it's so good.
Man you're spoiling us with this quality animations
Hey Matthew! Wonderful job you did there! I hope we will see another episode next year :D this was really amazing! The quality of the animation is astonishing :D Can't wait to see how you"ll do the Ringed City DLC :D
That was very funny. Although, I found the nameless king easier than frida.
If you thought the first DLC was tough, just wait until the second one. It will kick you ass.
Can't wait to see that parody.
Hi Demons in Pain and from Below!
(Dies from burns)
Hi Half-light!
(Dies to Spears of the Church)
Hi Midir!
(Dies to darkness beam)
Hi Gael!
(Just dies)
This is pure gold man. Cant believe i haven't seen this sooner. Absolute gold my dude!
"Porgs: A Far Worse Story"
I laughed so hard at that. lol
22:32 Probably the best animation Ive seen
Waiting was worth of every second
Thanks ^^
8:57 champion Gundyr mad AF.

DarkFate Inc Well, see you in 8 months then :)
RINGED CITY INCOMING KFKSFMLFLCÑWF
Pruld! My lord and savior has appeared!
Keep forgetting to mention that you missed one on the burned alive counter. There were 7. You're still awesome Shez! List below:
Dancer 3:56
Demon Ruins 7:24
Arch Dragon Peak 12:03 and 12:51
Ariandel 14:09 24:18 and 26:16 (even if it was Friede and not really burned alive but you counted it)
What if it's freezer burn?
Samus roasted him and that's what the burn counter was for. Not Friede
I am so very glad we get to understand ThePruld’s rant
The plurd is italian im italian
Non so scrivere in americano
25:32 Exactly my face when I realized this is not the end
I will always be supporting this channel because of the effort that goes into these videos. No matter the cost we -your fans- will follow you to the end of earth to see you complete your dreams of animating. ^~^
Thanks man i appreciate it so much.
I like how everything's so accurate, keep on the great job !!
Have to admit.... Your Animation is pretty damn good !
thank you so much!
Amazing art. Amazing sound. Amazing quality. Amazing detail.
That's really kind, thanks!! :)
25:32 this is actually the face made by all the players with that boss (at phase 3)
I love how the altered music tracks still sound great.
