One of the reasons why I love Saint is that he likes the games I like. Most people playing the dudebro AAA titles, and Saint just chilling over here in the Ivalice universe.
Glad to know as the years pass steadily behind me and the ever growing weariness of work and life push me forward into later-adulthood, I can always rely on disconnecting hosts to exist eternally. Sweet serendipity...
Part of what keeps me coming back is the entwined nature of irony-poisoned Saint and heartfelt/sincere Saint. For the show of hands, I was unable to play VS. In my defense, I was really gated from consoles and games as a kid.
daaamn Vagrant Story was so good! When I first played Dark Souls, the atmosphere immediately reminded me of Vagrant Story. I was pretty young too when I first played it, but it was a hella fun experience! Also pretty tough to beat
@@saintriot a remake would actually be awesome, with dark souls influences even more so, but I remember it being kinda bad on sales in comparison to the final fantasy-series and that's why we probably won't see that happen. Anyway, cool to see you giving this gem some love!
I also played Vagrant Story as a kid, and yes it was complicated, mainly remember watching my dad play it. It is still one of my favourite games. Ah the music!
Hello Saint, i recently discovered your channel and immediately got hooked. Your videos are very informative and fun to watch, also, your "characters" are funny as hell. Love from Brazil
I love you and support you for everything that you do. I love your content and thank you for giving me something to do during quarantine. I hope you love and are loved by those you love.
The shield you use in this build is my favorite in DS2, and I love many of the weapons you chose. Very cool to see in 2021 Saint, you've always had good taste.
I really love your commentary, and those invasions were nice. The build looks sweet with those weapons also! I’ve missed the event I’d assume - but a character will be made, maybe. I failed to get back into SotFS too many times now tbh, but I’ll try.
“Happy Alphonse”, the str-vig/something? I swear I regret every playthrough without spells, but I’m feeling it. Not even picking explorer, straight up knight with the goldfish-est brain.
You can upload your save to the PlayStation cloud and download it when you're done invading to get your soul memory back so you don't even have to wear the agape ring lol Have fun ring swapping too!
Goshdarn it, your blush forces my hand. Paused at his build, with the wiki open. From what I can tell, this vagrant is wearing: no helm, Brigand Armor, Grave Warden Bottoms, and Throne Defender's Gauntlets. Just goes to show DS2's dedication to dizzying variety. Hack 'n Style.
I ended up making a 50str/30dex sl150/2.5M (didn’t have one) and those drakekeeper weapons are so good looking and nice. I was sad seeing the int/fth requirements for black knight weapons, though.
You should play Tactics Ogre, Saint. It's more Matsuno goodness. Maybe you have already though, because I've heard Nybeth's theme in one of your videos before.
Poise seems less reliable in DS 2 than DS1 but I am currently retrying to beat the game with a Quality Build. I got lost a few times and even wasted some Fragrant Branches on a save file. But this time I'm looking to get it right and beat the final boss. SL 100 already though. Strange. One of these days maybe I'll invade or try to be a Blue Spirit.
>DS2 strength build >Didn't use Gyrm Great Hammer Why you do this Saint? But seriously, the Gyrm hammer is great. I mean it's an anvil on a stick. What's not to love?
“Babe wake up, saint riot uploaded another video”
yes honey...
The ending of this movie was so good 10/10 will recommend again
"Nostalgic elderly gamer invades other people's personal space and murders them. More at 11."
Saint, your love for these games inspires me not to oof myself when I get repeteadly mercilessly ganked by the dorito dust crew in all four games
One of the reasons why I love Saint is that he likes the games I like. Most people playing the dudebro AAA titles, and Saint just chilling over here in the Ivalice universe.
oh god the end was sad
First Otz, and now Saint too?
Guess I'll have to try Vagrant Story.
Heh.

Got all the way to the end and was like “man, I can’t believe no one has DCed on saint yet”...
Nice work, thanks!
Hard swap riposte into DC true combo. Beautiful way to end the vid👌🏻
Dark Souls 2 - The game that always has new builds to try out.
That Randy Savage x Betty Crocker drip 😎
daaamn Vagrant Story was so good! When I first played Dark Souls, the atmosphere immediately reminded me of Vagrant Story. I was pretty young too when I first played it, but it was a hella fun experience! Also pretty tough to beat
While I was streaming it people were asking how it might look if it was remade and all I could think was it would just be dark souls.

@@MrMashroomThe game of my heart for all eternity...Holy win best weapon
That dc was uncalled for , you were soo chill 🤣
I don't think the host DC didn't he say invaders are on a timer?
@@cherrycola4476 The timer shows a different message, that was a DC. Never change, Souls community
Also, not gonna lie your videos have been a large part of what keeps me playing souls 5 years + (almost).
I also played Vagrant Story as a kid, and yes it was complicated, mainly remember watching my dad play it. It is still one of my favourite games. Ah the music!
I did play vagrant story years ago but like you I didn't understand it enough to fully appreciate it.
Your clips were cool, and the matching of music to the action on the video was excellent
Dude that ending was fantastic! 10/10 souls combat! I hope everyone sticks around to see it. They'll be sorely missing out if they don't!
I DID like it when the music synced up with that execution. Thanks!
I legitimately enjoy your videos.

All the build up for the ending of the video was worth it, damn
Finally got a PC and just started playing through DS2 on it. I really hope I get invaded by Saint during my playthrough
Great video Saint!
Starting the event slightly late. Hoping to catch up to Saint soon.
The last clip was gold
I legitimately enjoy this content
Yes, Dark Souls 2. I feel like an obese child while playing, but goddamn it's fun.
Thank you Saint! Have a good day or evening aswell.
I knew the last player would be one of those, but I tried really hard not to think about it, so when it happened I uust busted out laughing
Never heard of vagrant story but now i want to try it since your taste in games is commendable
40 Str / 20 Dex is my favorite build in this game. You get a massive variety of weapons across almost every class that all scale well with strength.
Ashley "Saint" Riot is here to break risks. Yeah, I am the guy asking for more DS2 content in 2021.
Never stop making videos. I need them in my life
i fell in love with the commentary
I'm not surprised in the least that you called it the Rob Flynn ring at first. I always called it the Rob Flynn ring.
I really love your commentary, and those invasions were nice. The build looks sweet with those weapons also!
I’ve missed the event I’d assume - but a character will be made, maybe.
I failed to get back into SotFS too many times now tbh, but I’ll try.

Hey saint.... That was a darn good clip
Keep it coming my dude i love ds2 content
Hearing Saint rambling is the salve for my burdened soul.
I can only hope I run into you saint I've been playing ds2 for weeks now making new builds and shit. Love the build let's go
Ewww
I really hope that we get a vagrant story 2 one day that game is amazing
me too 🤙🏻
praise the sun! Saint Riot Vid
You can upload your save to the PlayStation cloud and download it when you're done invading to get your soul memory back so you don't even have to wear the agape ring lol
Have fun ring swapping too!
That last one really had a long wind up but it was worth it. Never change Dark Souls.
The music score has to be the best part of that game for me.
I heart you saint. I comment on video.
Rob Flynn is the frontman of machinehead
i really wanna know what armour he using, like ds2 is fashion souls 2, and saint's game's on point😳

Oroboro once said that the invasion timer in Dark Souls 2 was around 30 minutes, so you don't have to worry so much when you're invading
I've played Vagrant Story. It was an... interesting experience.
Saint Riot, swapper of swords
I love me some DS2.
Vagrant story is THE BESSST
Will you make something about bloodborne this march?
8:20 money shot
You should play Tactics Ogre, Saint. It's more Matsuno goodness. Maybe you have already though, because I've heard Nybeth's theme in one of your videos before.
5:03
Saint, I think *you're* cool.
never played vagrant story, but it sounds cool!
also that last clip is painful to watch lol
Pursuer sword makes drake keeper sword appear small and flaccid
Powerful proccing poisonartisan
Saint man please man you gotta open that patreon I have so many things I wanna complain about
Bruh how did you actually manage to get the drake keeper long sword at that level? I had to farm the hell out of it
Agape Ring, Champion's Covenant, gold serpent ring, rusted coin, watchdog parma, prisoner's tatters.
ohshit it's Ashley Riot.
got to 8:41 and realized, is this insecure saint a new character or something?
A vagrant story is a final fantasy side story right? Like GTA liberty city and Vice city stories?
Yeah kinda. Final Fantasy Tactics, Vagrant Story and Final Fantasy 12 are all set in the same world.
Poise seems less reliable in DS 2 than DS1 but I am currently retrying to beat the game with a Quality Build.
I got lost a few times and even wasted some Fragrant Branches on a save file. But this time I'm looking to get it right and beat the final boss.
SL 100 already though. Strange.
One of these days maybe I'll invade or try to be a Blue Spirit.
DS2 has a million stats, is long as hell and isn't stingy about giving you souls. SL100 before end game is about right.
@@saintriot
I dunno wtf to do. Maybe Adaptability or keep upgrading the stats.
You can make a Ashley riot in elden ring?
Connection Error Receiver,
The Box Puzzle Pleader
I should really finish vagrant story, i still have the saves on my ps3
Is that a Machine Head reference hahaha
Saaaaaint saint!!! Elden ring my man elden ring leak!!!
We jump button now!
@@saintriot Yeee! YEEE!
We need a How To Ashley Riot on Dark souls 3
Wait is ds2 back online? It was offline for consoles for the past few days
it is back online mow for ps4 :)
It wasn't offline for me the first day but it was yesterday. Then late last night it came back.
@@saintriot That's awesome that its back. I was pretty surprised that they we're doing server maintenance this late in the game's life
vangrant story was the first souls game
Please, do more meme videos like the invading in the swamps.
Thank yee
B O X P U Z Z L E
What are you playing on?
PS5. It shares player base with PS4 and PS4 Pro. No difference that I noticed.
@@saintriot Sorry I found that out from watching the rest of the video. Thank you.
@@saintriot Thanks for the help getting my ps3 rolling. I been getting my Vagrant Story on. Much appreciated.
What if you wanted to farm the drakekeeper's sword
But RNGesus said: Dragon Charm
I just got blue balled
hello saint riot
More ds 2!!!!
Hey Saint Riot
Speaking of obscure ps1 games probably not for children, you ever play Koudelka?
Never even heard of it.
Invasion timer is 30 minutes
Do people still pvp in the first and second game??
I can speak for DS2 on PC, the arena always has traffic and you can invade pretty consistently
U can't invade much in ds2 cos of "soul memory" ds1 pvp is broken beyond belief.
@@chainbomb bs.
@@JohnDoe-pu5gk I literally got invaded twice while i was cooping with a friend a few days ago lol?
@@JohnDoe-pu5gk ds1 is actually the most balanced one lol
more ds2 vids pls
>DS2 strength build
>Didn't use Gyrm Great Hammer
Why you do this Saint?
But seriously, the Gyrm hammer is great. I mean it's an anvil on a stick. What's not to love?
Saint really is better since he drifted away from DS3. No wonder though.
Third!
your character as a red spirit looks so in pain :(
Ds2 is awful.
nobody is forcing you to watch this video. if you dont enjoy ds2, dont play it.
@@talsubach5979 I don't play it, no one in their right mind plays it.
Cool story bro.
Invasion timer is 30 minutes
