Its supposedly the hardest modern game around. I say hardest 'modern' cause most people consider "Contra Hard Corps" on sega genesis to this day to be the hardest game of all time. This guy makes it look easy but believe me you will probably be cursing at the TV a few times before you beat the game. That Dragon Boss, I saw a guy die 36 times trying to beat on twitch and this guy did it like it was nothing. Speed runners usually tend to beat the games 100's of times
You know you gotta have a real gamer in the hotseat when they've memorised the stats for what their character looks like and each character is made of like 50 numbers between 0 and 255.
@@rainestar6781 I never even realised pontiff was a boss because everything in this area looks similiar and is annoying asf and i was busy talking to my cousin and just mauled through him on autopilot and there are people everywhere talking like hes the actual main challenge of DS3 ._.
Ok, but can we talk about the balls of walking into the Nameless Kings attack at 1:42:45 while chugging drank, having him miss by inches, thenending the animation in time to dodge the second hit and go in for the kill? That actually made my eyes pop out like an old school cartoon character.
What an awesome guy performing this great run! I think you are a very likeable person and you did a great job! One of the (if not the) most entertaining speedruns I ever saw! :-) best wishes to you!
Small lore correction: Lorian did not become crippled after fighting the Demon Prince. The dude is so gut that really only his sword was harmed. However, he became like you see him in the game after he decided to support Lothric’s decision to not link the fire and somehow “shared his curse”. It’s not exactly clear what happened, but for sure they share one soul among them. Maybe it was some final push from the royal family to make Lothric into someone capable of linking the fire, thus they fused his soul with his brother’s, making both of them crippled, but enough to be the Lord of Cinder.
Finally beat the game after discovering the Dark Souls series through GDQ. Now coming back to see how much I sucked through these 64 hours of gameplay.
The guy explaining time zones and there being other countries/places existing, having different time zones as well. Was probably talking to the Americans. Love it
"Depending on which of the two you kill first, changes the second phase of the boss fight. That's something we've haven't seen in a souls game yet" yup, never seen it before. Especially not in the most famous boss from the first game. Nope, never seen it. Demon prices was the first, totally.
Shrek glanced at the small white flower in his hand. It had been nearly 5 years since Fiona had linked the fire, and her sacrifice had saved Far Far Away from destruction. But the wound still hurt. However, the day was beautiful, and he knew Fiona would want him to enjoy the light she had fought to her last breathe to save. He glanced at the sunset, and let the flower fall to the ground. "What's wrong, daddy?" the little ogre said to her father, clutching his shirt. It was clear to Shrek that she could feel the quiet melancholy that had filled the room. "Ah, oh, nothin' chield. Just thanking aboot yar muthar. Say, do you wanna hear a story?"
i love it when the coach talks and knows the game makes for a great watch! so many times the coach just sit there silent or repeat the same joke over and over GG:)
3:32 Bruh! That is not an "L" it is a capital "i". Iudex means "judge" and gund is "battle". He is the "Judge of Ash Gundyr" in the japanese version. It's literally just a test battle for the ashen one.

Runner introduction starts at 1:32.
Run starts at 6:09.
I find myself coming back to this run consistently time after time. One of my favourite GDQ runs.
I was wondering which of the half dozen or so GDQ DS3 runs I should watch and picked this one bcuz of your comment. glad I did
This looks like a nice easy, casual game.
the kind of thing you e joy doing after a stressful day to calm yourself down
it's not hard casul
Nameless King: "Allow me to introduce myself."
Plus there's so many tutorials, it really holds your hand through most of the game

Couch commentary was fantastic, runner personality and commentary was great. Great fun to watch!
I love how Cole barely stopped smiling at any point of this run.
I just saw on the leaderboards that COLTrane got the world record a couple of days ago on 1h 16m 54s. That is real nice!
Cool!
Cool!
the bizzarre adventures of fiona: part 3: green crusaders
SONO CHI NO SADAME! FIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONA!
More like grusaders amirite eh
No? Ok man no need to push I'm going you just need to show me the door
Everywhere I go, a JoJo reference is found..

I really appreciate all the extra commentary, explanation, context, etc. from the couch dudes.
>makes ogre
>skips swamp
:c
I died to the dancer about 500 times. And then I watch him walking through the spin attack. OK.... Instantly mindblown.
i swear i almost threw my pc outside becasue of that boss AND pontiff. Also, side note: The first time i fought yorm i didnt know about the sword....
That boss kicked my ass, but Pontiff was kind of a let down. Beat him on my first try.
man i have to say that Dancer of the valley and Pontiff were so easy to me. Buuuut in my first gameplay i died like 10 times to ludex gundyr

@@dsadsa726 ah yes i casually did not notice the music or the massive health bar on the bottom did i make it obvious enough that im good at this game
You know, I wasn't too sure about this run.....and then I saw her face.
Now I'm a believer....that this run was going to be a trip from the start
Tremendous respect and admiration for all Soulsborne speed runners. I love watching them all, regardless of strategies or skips.
"AND THAT WAS IT, LET'S GO!"
"That was not it..."
Must say, this is an epic reboot of Shrek!
I didn't know Illumination had it in them
the pure joy on his face at 1:16:40 when he does that impressive vine skip is so damn wholesome.
Props for the respect to Distortion.
legend.
loved the run but the prize guy at the end stole the show for me, went to make a coffee once the run was done and come back to this legend
37:10 Itharyll of the Robeal Llavey.
Thank you! I thought I was the only one who caught that haha
Here half to enjoy the run, half to enjoy the sight of people stuck together without the worry of covering their faces.
First try Wilhelm, what a beast of a runner
late congrats on the PB, holy moly :0
Wow, those skips execution!
I wasn’t going to watch this as I thought I’d seen every run of DS3, boy am I glad I didn’t miss out.
This is truly the Dark Souls of Speedruns.
I love how he looks happy all the time lol
Who the hell PBs during a GDQ? Amazing.
I remember seeing someone get a WR in a GDQ once, cant remember who or what game tho
@@cazza710 There were a couple, if I'm not mistaken. I believe whoever did the Minecraft run got WR? I might be misremembering.
NasIsLike Personal Best
No, it's peanut butter
@@RekiWylls GDQx 2019 got WR for Breath of the Wild shrine run. The runner was like "Thats a PB for me...and WR"
Such a fantastic, humble runner. Great couch, too. What a solid run.

Runner's casting was better than all casters' combined

I almost thought he missed crystal sage at the end, but nope, it just went by too fast for me to realise.
Gravastars1 literally me too I came in the comments to see if anyone called him out lmfao
Omg I loved the character creation :) Princess Fiona rocks! The run was also really good :)
Man the commentary is gold with this run.
Never played before but after watching. I bought it. Seems like a good time

When I see gael movements I can't stop remembering guts in berserk armor...
Love the dude doing the voice over. Great voice and great personality
I was sure you gonna miss old demon king - didn't expect him to go down so fast lol. Great run
Think I need to get me some sellsword twinblades
Without tumblebuff they aren't all that OP as they are in this run, still solid weapon choice but I personally prefer a Greatsword
"Depending on which of the two you kill first, changes the second phase of the boss fight. That's something we've haven't seen in a souls game yet"
yup, never seen it before. Especially not in the most famous boss from the first game. Nope, never seen it. Demon prices was the first, totally.
I was wondering how he could forget that. One of the most memorable and infamous bosses of DS1.
Yeah seriously, WTF. It's not like O&S was one of the most (in)famous fights in the series or anything.
It's such a specifically wrong statement that I can't tell if he was joking or not
i think he was obviously being sarcastic folks.
This is the first DS game i ever finished. Watching him burst him through is bringing back every memory i had at once lol... so many deaths...
this is the best couch commentary i’ve seen
Is that Big John hosting? That’s awesome.
How much flex tape is needed to fix those enemies? That's a LOT OF DAMAGE
Flex tape can fix ANYTHING. Just spray it on and let it dry. If it's not fixed, put on another coat!
have patience
@@ILiekFishes It can even fix marriage, it's proven to work better than placebo!
After working on the Soul of Cinder for a year, seeing it done in a minute hurts.
Should have called it All Bosses, lore% run
I usually skip to the start of the run but then I heard Big John
I died to dancer about 30 times before beating her. I don't know how they make it look so simple. So Impressive
Fantastic run, love the category. Congrats on the PB!
As someone who has always wanted to finish Dark Souls 3, this was inspirational.
Kratos and Atreus good for you. There are tons of other people out there that are fans of the game but don’t divulge into as much as others can.
If Shrek's stories were written by H. P. Lovecraft, they would be like this!
53:12 Oh look, it's the bane of my existence
As if it wasn’t enough to speedrun the game, he does it with keyboard and mouse
I think he only uses it in specific moments to set up some of the tougher skips.
Would’ve loved to see someone explain more lore on the couch but good run nonetheless!
Great run. Love the chill commentary.
hes 22 minutes in and hes at the same place im at after 45 hours. did i waste my time XD
You're all good xD speedrunners probably have 4500+ hours on the game.
Love that he got a pb on this run
The game: the age that holds everyone you ever loved is coming to an end
Coltrane45: 🤠
This dude is actually insane!
I never got past lothric and lorian.. can't believe how easy this guy makes it all look
The pain Trane coming for dark souls! That’s what I’m talking about baby! Esketittt!! Woooooo!!!!!
IGT PB while not doing all the IGT save quits, really nice
Gael must be pissed. A green ogre just came in with no armor and punched him to death.

This was a fantastic run
Wow, I watched someone die 36 times to that dragon boss on twitch and he did it like it was nothing.
That dancer fight was perfect
not the fact that he speedruns this amazes me....but that he speedruns with fucking mouse and keyboard
PRAISE THE SUN, ANOTHER SOULSBORNE RUN!
Is it just me or does Slave Knight Gael have attacks that are the same as or that look similar to the ones that Knight Artorias from Dark Souls 1 has?
David Croft it’s not just you, Gael was a throwback to Artorias
@@dennisr6718 That's awesome!
Creating a good looking character in a FromSoftware game is almost impossible, but creating Shrek is a piece of cake. xD
Nice run, BTW
Those were a lot of deaths :c Poor Colt. But watching this was very entertaining.
You can open that door in ariandel. The door inside the chapel with this glitch ? Normal it opens from the other side. Trough the basement
One of my favorite franchises
1:46:00 wow the new Monk from Diablo Immortal looks really badass to play
This is just like DARK SOULS
This guy man, Ludex Gunyr and Ithyryll.
it's not gael fists only, you hit him with a soul arrow :^)
does anyone know what the item in front of him after the second partake skip was? (the one immediately before midir fight)
The fact that I struggled on dancer for 3 days and she was defeated here in 30 seconds is slightly worrying for me.
took me 21 attempts.
Shame they didn't have the music for that last fight ;-;
*Dog teleports behind you* Nothing personal kid
Princess Fiona sherks the land of lorian
lmao these guys' jokes man...
theyre like onions!
They stink and make me wanna cry.
Shreks* the land of Lorian
They should have checked themselves before the shrekt themselves.
i love it when the coach talks and knows the game makes for a great watch! so many times the coach just sit there silent or repeat the same joke over and over GG:)

Even if it was an L, why would it be lowercase? Lol
Fiona in Shrek 4 was just LIKE THAT though lol, this is plot confirmed
hell yeah, jazz tribute in the username
Is that GameJ06 on mic!? Awesome man, perfect for the job :3
damn this dude killed it!
I will one boss for hours and fail
Watches him casually beat all the boss in less than 2 hours
Could not get passed the abyss watcher… tried 100 times and gave up 😅
Awesome run
is it me or did he not do Soul of Cinder boss? or maybe i just fell aslep. idk.
meanwhile nemz with all weapons xD still a good run
Ahh... You should show off interesting game design when fighting Old Demon King.
In short, when ODK hp reach about
Does the lord of cinder not count toward the bosses?
No nameless king?!
really nice run, COLT
is he using mouse+keyboard only or controller also?
