    One thing I absolutely love about these videos is that you go the extra mile and show us the dead ends.
    For example, going to Lost Bastille through No Man's Wharf, which can't be done because of the ladder in the ship. You could just explain these dead ends with some text, but instead you go and show them.
    Highly appreciate the commitment! It makes these videos so much more entertaining.

    When Ymfah finished his "No Talking Dark Souls 2" with him deleting the game, I really thought that was it with DS2 and that was fine. It was a spectacle of extensive knowledge about the game and a blast to watch. But, have we been given a threat ! And this one, it's 85 minutes, it's a game he showed several time, yet there isn't a single moment when my interest dwindled. Fantastic work!
    And Dark Souls 2 will keep on coming back, because while other Souls titles are like English gardens: precisely done to break a rigid structure and to invoke a sentiment of romance (pre-XXth Century romance), DS2 is the imaginative kid's sand corner: every toys finds its place and so did every broken sets as part of his world. You're not at awe looking at it but curious about everything that's possible in his unfocused, strange, impressive world.

I reinstalled ds2 recently and forgot to apply that "essential mod pack" and i actually could suffer through it few hours, but most because i was doing same old +6 rapier early, cheese dragon rider, useing summon to even out gunk fights and so on, so i got bored really quickly tried to ignore some of cheese and imedietly my frustrations with game returned.

      @@madkoala2130 is it possible that it get frustrating without mod or cheese because you still try to play it like darksouls 1/3 or even an average action rpg? Because this game include many tailings and slow pacing. Like, shooting enemy from afar, not immediately rush into a hostile area, not attacking bosses more than 1 or 2 each opening window, and tail the enemy quite far back to not aggro the other enemies? Unless its the challenge run DLC (Which is the trio npc ganks and lud and zallen) then the ganks bossfight is already made with solo fight in mind. Just need a lot of dodging and running around the map but its usually pretty fair (Like the three sentinels that you can fight 1 vs 1)
