When I saw those Gwyns killing each other as you stood in safety, collecting 70k souls for free on repeat. This run suddenly didn't seem so bad. Then I remembered you can't level up until Firelink Shrine....
The tenacity of the human soul to persevere and accomplish pointlessly difficult tasks in the face of impossible odds is a truly beautiful and terrifying thing to behold.
The fact that you recreated Gwyn's theme using the sound effects of all the times you died in the undead asylum really says a lot about just how difficult this was.
I love how the first analysis in the beginning makes it sound like he's being constantly hunted by a single gwyn and has to avoid his light and footsteps

Tell me why even though I laughed at other parts too, I laughed the hardest on 23:58 when he was like, "NOW, ALL THAT WAS LEFT WAS... t h e r e s t o f t h e e n t i r e f u c k i n g g a m e..." I laughed so hard, I couldn't breathe!
I saw this video before I ever fought Gwyn. I've never lost to him a first time. First try: Parry, Leo ring + Uchigatana+15=1500 damage. Second try: Parry + Divine Shortsword+10 + GLS for wakeup. Third try: Parry + Gravelord Sword+5. 4th try, yet to happen: Parry + Washing Pole+15. It's not hard when you learn how to parry.
@@alexhp1282 No he's not. Slow the videodown to the slowest speed and analyze each strike's positioning, recovery frames, what's visible on the sides and at one time he even opens the gesture menu. You'll see that it's not a repeat. It's just the each attack looks so similar that's why.
Thank you for making this guide on how to play dark souls 1 remastered. I will use this to finally play the game the way Miyazaki intended Edit: Took me 1 hour 47 minutes to get through the Asywn Demon
This whole time I was wondering why he didn't get the Gwyns to kill each other, then try to take the souls back to a bonfire to level up. I just realized that you can't actually level up until you leave the asylum. Brutal.
@@ChallengerAndyOfficial Is it a similar thing with Gundyr in the all Gael run? I think this is a decent case for savestates (if possible). You said the worst part is the massive wait time to get back into the arena.
@@finnlewis6207 For the Gael run, that is the reason I am using save states, especially since it's a similar lottery system to kill the Gaels before the arena

12:58 "at this point it seemed as if each shining ray of hope i encountered was actually flaming greatsword waiting to smash my spirit back into the ground" a laughed this so much i feel like i should apologize. sorry man.
@@windowsVD that's probably worse than all Gaels, not because NK is so strong, but because he has a huge wind waves that go through walls. He's really easy to outrun, but he'll shoot it nonstop, which may make some areas just impossible to survive. His wide wave only goes forward horizontally from him, but his narrow fast wave is actually aimable - he can aim it on you diagonally. I don't know why is it, considering NK's arena is flat and he doesn't need aiming, but it is his ability.
The part where you got so stressed that you had to step back and calm down to remember how to jump attack... that's one of the most relatable things I've ever heard. This is a momentous video.
My dude not only managed to beat the Asylum, but he got it down to a fine science and also kept track of the number of deaths. This is sheer insanity and I have nothing but respect for you.
Gwyn's "fast slash" as you called it, is actually so fast that when using a big boy weapon like the Great Club, your attack animation is slow enough that Gwyn can miss an attack and fast slash you before you can dodge. I learned this the hard way on my first playthrough, where I played naked with no health investment or shield usage. The Gwyn fight was far from impossible, but a combination of the fast slash taking away my safety net and his slash combo's thrust finisher being a near insta-kill that is near identical to his slash finisher while having dramatically different timing made it partially luck based.
"All Champion Gundyr Run" in DS3. I initially was going to say "All Soul of Cinder Run" or "All Slave Knight Gael Run" but since you can't parry those bosses, it would be a nightmare.
Seeing the glowing flames of Gwyn’s sword through the walls and pillars is how the Fellowship of the Ring must’ve felt seeing the light and heat of the Balrog in Moria
There’s something about the absolutely unbreakable dedication and perseverance in this video that’s really stuck with me. I’ve been coming back to this video for months now when life gets to be too much and it’s such an instant comfort. Keep up the good work man!
I laughed so hard when you mentioned you couldn't see his health bar so you didn't know when it was going to end. Like, you think it can't get any worse! Dark Souls is magical, lol. Perfect video, love your narration and style bro. Well done on the Wyn, Andy!
I don't know what's funnier, the eye searing bright light produced by Gwyn, the swamp ass boots sound he makes when walking that's louder than everything else in the game, that the frame rate plummets whenever there is more than 1 in the area, or you turning a corner only to be hit by a Gwyn shaped homing missile.
The guy literally made spreadsheets and analyzed the information he gathered from his training to find the most effective strategy. That is so much more than git gud

Harder runs are in progress. I have just recently completed a run more painful than this one (Horizon Zero Dawn: No Weapons). I would rather do this again than that run.
so I did a tiny bit of math if every ripose has a 5% chance of going into a grab and you need 837 riposes, then you'll have an average of 42 grabs that you need to dodge and immediately re-innitiate the PEGP if every grab has just a 3% chance of killing you, then your odds of success are just about 27%

This video... Is a fucking master piece, you have the respect from the entire Dark Souls Comunity
so I did a tiny bit of math
if every ripose has a 5% chance of going into a grab and you need 837 riposes, then you'll have an average of 42 grabs that you need to dodge and immediately re-innitiate the PEGP
if every grab has just a 3% chance of killing you, then your odds of success are just about 27%
This is great! Eternal respect for not going hollow after the damn tutorial area...
