@Frozen Eucalyptus hahaha awesome, the other dude, McConnell, is his WoW buddy, he is a good heckler and gives him shit a lot but he seems to hate the stream chat.
I don’t think he knows how to kindle them at this point in the run. He did it once in Sen’s Fortress when chat guided him through the whole process of restoring humanity and kindling, and he noticed that he had 10 estus, but I don’t think it ever clicked in his head that kindling is what caused him to have 10 estus. So technically, I guess he knows how to kindle bonfires, but he didn’t realize why he should. Even though the game tells you at the beginning and he ignored all messages and tutorial notifications... props to him for staying true to the blind run and not looking it up, though.
@Frozen Eucalyptus lol why does something another person playing a video does annoy you anyways 😂 seems odd this would annoy anybody as it has nothing to do with your life
In my first playthrough I didn't kindle a single bonfire, 5 estus flasks were enough for me to get to another bonfire or to kill a boss (sometimes I used 1 humanity in a boss fight, but it happend only 2 times, with the gaping dragon and stray demon)
the room with the pinwheel servants and baby skeletons was way cooler and a bit harder than the actual pinwheel fight, i wish they made that the fight instead
Yeah kills me too, why is it so hard for him to understand. Another thing that kills me is he refuses to heal, always chooses to swing his sword and miss rather than heal...YOU DIED
Don't give up man, this is a game series that tests players to their limits, there is a reason difficult games get compared to dark souls. Perseverance, patience, pattern recognition, memorisation of move sets (yours and your opponents), situational awareness, and that's just the battling of the game. The souls management, levelling properly, finding your way through the game, nothing in this game series is easy, and nothing is linear, every single enemy in this game has the potential to kill you.
I agree, kind of, it's the learning curve that's hard. Once you know the game and it's mechanics it's incredibly easy but until that point it's definitely a struggle.
Some may already know this, but the black knights were blackened by the flames of demons during the war against the flame of chaos. The Witch who held the lord soul of flame tried to use it to create a new age of fire, but she lost control and it thus created the flame of chaos, spawning the demons. Both the Witch and her daughters of chaos were twisted beyond recognition, such a cruel fate indeed. Hearing McConnell bring up why the black knights were the way they are made me remember that part of the lore. It’s too bad Asmongold didn’t pay much attention to the lore during this playthrough. But it was entertaining regardless.
1:58:40 Nope, we just take our time to figure out what options we have available by learning what our stats, controlls and items do. We listen to what the game shoves into our faces. On another note, this has been his most exciting ds stream yet imo
@@yurilopes420 if by that you mean he plays like a blind person would, I agree 100%. His playthroughs are so blind he doesn't even read the ingame tooltips lol Thank you btw. You put me in the mood to rewatch the entire saga. It was some of his best content
Another fantastic arc! In former entries our boy learned that you can't always spam heavy attacks and that you must adapt to the situation, but here it is precisely that original stubbornness that led to him overcoming one of his toughest foes yet. After all, why use light attacks when heavy attacks do more damage?
A lot of the people in the chat saying he was overlevelled, but tbh he has lost like a quarter mill souls over the playthrough. He didn't even farm souls to level up or anything which suprised me even more cause I took like 10 tries to beat 4 kings in my blind playthrough@@jmkos86
@@jmkos86 i was just watching him rank all the souls bosses, and he mentioned "i always fought the kings with the guardian armor from the dlc, which made me poise through all their attacks and just spam them to death" i think he was surprised aswell and in normal playthroughs they're not supposed to be that easy? he was coerced into checking the dlc first by chat tho so 😂😂😂😂
@@yurilopes420 absolutely not. On one of my ds runs I did what he did and the 4 kings are indeed a joke. Also did a glitch on bed of chaos that makes the boss laughable. But on normal circumstances, they are by no means an “easy” fight. There is a certain way to go about the fights which make it seem easy though.
I always enjoy seeing people go into the catacombs for the first time, without bringing a Divine weapon and cut their teeth on the infinitely respawning skellies
Marcano asked him the right thing: how can he beat bosses like Artorius and loose against a common golem - because he never learned to fight properly. He knows to roll and hard attacks, but thats it. Nothing more. No blocks, no parry, no combos, no critical .... he plays like a WOW player - spamming the hard attacks in hope for a better cooldown - thats not going to happen
His strategy is to face tank everything, why bother learning patterns, dodging, blocking. When you can get the strongest weapon you can find, and put all your points in health, and just mash heavy attack.
@@mattd9881 Yup, no matter how thick your skin is, it will always kinda get on your nerves. Especially because these people act like they never got stuck at a boss or did some stupid stuff.
Chat question: Did you beat the flippy flippy knight (Artorias)? Asmon: Oh yeah I beat his ass, it was no big deal Also Asmon: Was on the verge of tears fighting him for about 3hrs, wondering why he has the jitters (even though he drinks an unhealthy amount of caffeinated soda), talks about having the shakes, and having died to him 61 times He does this all the time from what I've noticed, guess in this case, the false confidence filled answer was to mask his pain, and to try to erase the nightmare of having fought the Abysswalker from his memory, Artorias broke him so badly lol.
For all 61 deaths he made the exact same mistakes and never learned lmao, even when he enters the room and goes for 2 swings of heavy atks he never learned that it doesn’t hit the 2nd time round. I honestly think he killed him over pure luck and rng in the end 😂 and yes it fully broke him ahaha 👌
I've actually watched you get better and better at these games, there my absolute favorite and If your not passionate about these games no way you'll beat them, good job buddy
lmfao he is not learning he's beating his head against the wall till he gets it finally 😂 his dodges are really all that have improved not being toxic it's just so funny to me
I'm amazed that what goes trough his head in a time he has like 15% HP left. He had time to heal, but he decides to put one more hit to the boss that he knows wont kill him. Like WTF.
The problem with wow people is when you grow up playing wow those same skills cant really transfer over to other games. Especially console games. Do not treat non mmorpg games like an mmorpg game.
I've got it! He is Soul Challenged - He's just like a Gambler once he got them and he doing well he loses them and refuses to believe he is ever down in the first place. He is LEEROY Incarnate!
Remember my first Nito. Didn't know you could stop the skeletons resurrecting so I just armored up, buffed my weapon and powered through them all. Worked out pretty well.
Nito was pretty brutal at first. I died on the first 7 or 8 attempts. I just put on more armor and rushed him and beat him during that attempt. He was a bit of a pain in the ass though.
McConnell trolled him again. That bonfire doesn’t appear until after you kill the boss, it’s the exact same with the other late-game bosses. McConnell is a great troll, he sounded very sincere.
When he said Gravelord Nito was one of his favorite boss fights ever I was so utterly amazed that someone had such an opinion. Nito was easily the most disappointing boss for me.
@@yannbanan6982 Bro you literally see him in the opening cutscene and youre like damn what a badass dude he unleashed a miasma of death. And then the only hard part about his boss fight is the fact that there are skeletons

Imagine actually having to figure out a boss fight for yourself. No wonder he brags about classic being “easy”. Anything is easy when you know everything due to looking it up and have guides on what to do every step of the way. Imagine playing classic wow blind.
very entertaining but also a little turn off when you catch him playing badly for content for example 1:29:27 , he's skipping the mobs to rush to the boss, at 1:29:30 when you stop you can see the entrance to the boss fight pretty obvious and also you can see his eyes moving to the right side of his screen spotting the entrance but then decide to stop going up to the entrance and runs in a completly wrong direction as an act to entertain the chat who find it hilarious when he misses the complete obvious and goes very wrong ways. He knows very well about this and purposly does things like this because he knows that is what keeps the people invested into his stream, making fun off him. There is a chance I might be wrong of course but things like this are just very weird and that's my personal guess. I don't blame him for it, it's his job to entertain as a streamer or atleast he decided to do that as his content, still very well played pretending/acting.
2:41:27 Actually not right McCool.. Theres still almost all bugs present in the game, many cant be fixed cos of the engine and many werent event addressed.. Unfortunately this is one of those worse lazy remasters we ve seen so far.. Anyone who says otherwise is either stupid or didnt play the original and then remaster himself..
@@slinttu1378 How did I miss this.. you re right it does seem to me more like a sarcasm now.. I remember I was new to the channel back then I failed to recognize it as a sarcasm
@@NotEvenDeathCanSaveU Yep, can't really blame you, i kinda fell for the shit he used to say back a few years ago aswell when i was new to the channel haha.
Everyone says he doesn't learn, doesn't block, and doesn't dodge. That is PATENTLY wrong. He blocks by standing taking the hits. He dodges by walking away from the attacks, backward most of the time.
i like how aroun 55 minutes or 56 minutes he asked if he was going the right way but bitches at chat bc they were telling him where to go and stuff, but they are like its the same thing... no he asked him not the peanut gallery
Nah, that's a weapon that forces you to learn that you can't spam it. If he had stuck with the Longsword+6, he would've never stopped spamming one-handed light attacks.
i realize how many boss mechanics i skip watching asmon lol. i'm like...gaping dragon can do that? this dude does that? whaaa they always dead before i see it :P
44:53 The best part is that despite all he says and what he does, Dark souls still is treating like a VIP, dude got the skull lantern on early access 🤣🤣🤣. When it was my 1st playthrough I wasn't so lucky, I never felt bothered by the concept of darkness until I visited the tomb of giants, that dark is so dense, so overwhelming it is almost maddening, each step was a suffering so great was de void of light. 1:01:50 My god he's so dumb and blind that even be tricked by Patches is out of his reach. 1:32:14 Dude doesn't even read his donation, now he's lost because of the stream, what a patetic sample of an excuse. "I need to please my stream, therefore I deserve a map" 1:52:32 Gentlemen, I would like to remind you all that Artorias had 3500 HP, Nito has 4300, while Manus has...6665 2:04:28 Well, he didn't lie, there's no hidden lever in the arena that will dispatch the skeleton that he didn't see. Bringing a divine weapon to make things easier, but it's not properly necessary, everything else is nominal. 2:23:10 Well, yeah, the thing is...You're not, haha. Dark souls won't give you the most ideal circunstances to fight, it's on your own to evolve your adaptability 2:25:50 "The problem is that he jumps, I can't get behind him" said the guy who fought Artorias with all his leaps literally last stream...Iearning deficiency 2:33:43 He just killed any interest I could have in wow
My favorite part of this play through is that he refuses or forgets to kindle the bonfires.

the room with the pinwheel servants and baby skeletons was way cooler and a bit harder than the actual pinwheel fight, i wish they made that the fight instead

I don't blame him for it, it's his job to entertain as a streamer or atleast he decided to do that as his content, still very well played pretending/acting.
Yea, it's his shtick to play dumb he does it very well.
Ahhh, ahhhhhh, ahhhhhhh sums up this entire playthrough
Nothing makes me happier than watching asmon sink right to the doorstep of depression and listlessness over and over again. PRAISE THE SUN! 🌞
I love 11:40 - 14:13 he looks so hyped
Lightning zweihander damage op
McConnell is so moody, he can dish it out but he can't take it. I've never seen such conspiratory sabotage before...
2:41:27 Actually not right McCool.. Theres still almost all bugs present in the game, many cant be fixed cos of the engine and many werent event addressed.. Unfortunately this is one of those worse lazy remasters we ve seen so far.. Anyone who says otherwise is either stupid or didnt play the original and then remaster himself..
Are you actually taking Mcconnell serious here? It's obvious sarcasm. Cmon man and you are saying he's stupid?
“Ackchyually”
@@slinttu1378 How did I miss this.. you re right it does seem to me more like a sarcasm now.. I remember I was new to the channel back then I failed to recognize it as a sarcasm
@@NotEvenDeathCanSaveU Yep, can't really blame you, i kinda fell for the shit he used to say back a few years ago aswell when i was new to the channel haha.
2:33:05 lol finally he said it. Jesus. I love Asmon but holy shit is it insane watching him play this.
Everyone says he doesn't learn, doesn't block, and doesn't dodge. That is PATENTLY wrong. He blocks by standing taking the hits. He dodges by walking away from the attacks, backward most of the time.
1:10:10
What did McCool said? You are not ....... (cut out?) for the catacombs.
If he said that, what does mean cut out in this phrase?
hes making fun of asmon, basically making the implication that he cannot complete it because he just isnt good enough.
1:23:35
5 years later and the part with FAP and Havel's ring made me so angry I had to reinstall the game.
1:14:51 when Dark souls player graduates
I've never seen scelly blacksmith.
Drops a cool hat
i like how aroun 55 minutes or 56 minutes he asked if he was going the right way but bitches at chat bc they were telling him where to go and stuff, but they are like its the same thing... no he asked him not the peanut gallery
How do I run and look in the other direction? LOL!!
I'm only at 1:31:22 and he's already lost 50k souls. MY EYES
wait but if he swings and the npc moves out the way and dodges then it shouldn't hit them?
LITTERAL DEAD GOD.
Why doesn't he ever kindle the bonfires?
His friend should have never told him to get the zweihander, it just encourages his brainless playstyle
Nah, that's a weapon that forces you to learn that you can't spam it. If he had stuck with the Longsword+6, he would've never stopped spamming one-handed light attacks.
I wish I could give a like for each death.
The Eye of the Asmoooon! Lol
i realize how many boss mechanics i skip watching asmon lol. i'm like...gaping dragon can do that? this dude does that? whaaa they always dead before i see it :P
44:53 The best part is that despite all he says and what he does, Dark souls still is treating like a VIP, dude got the skull lantern on early access 🤣🤣🤣. When it was my 1st playthrough I wasn't so lucky, I never felt bothered by the concept of darkness until I visited the tomb of giants, that dark is so dense, so overwhelming it is almost maddening, each step was a suffering so great was de void of light.
1:01:50 My god he's so dumb and blind that even be tricked by Patches is out of his reach.
1:32:14 Dude doesn't even read his donation, now he's lost because of the stream, what a patetic sample of an excuse. "I need to please my stream, therefore I deserve a map"
1:52:32 Gentlemen, I would like to remind you all that Artorias had 3500 HP, Nito has 4300, while Manus has...6665
2:04:28 Well, he didn't lie, there's no hidden lever in the arena that will dispatch the skeleton that he didn't see. Bringing a divine weapon to make things easier, but it's not properly necessary, everything else is nominal.
2:23:10 Well, yeah, the thing is...You're not, haha. Dark souls won't give you the most ideal circunstances to fight, it's on your own to evolve your adaptability
2:25:50 "The problem is that he jumps, I can't get behind him" said the guy who fought Artorias with all his leaps literally last stream...Iearning deficiency
2:33:43 He just killed any interest I could have in wow
1:54:52 ZEUS
29:01 for futur me
