well, i gues that quote is the 'wish' I have for the 'night' ;D
I think I read that in a gay furry hentai manga once. 😳
@@barneybetsington7501 haha Don't worry, I'm nothing quite so terrible :P Just wordplay from the quote Press used (a song from the band NightWish)
Since like 50% of why I love his videos is the wordplay and puns (like, honestly kinda hot I have no idea how or why lol), I thought I'd return the favor haha
Meanwhile youtubers like ymfah and so on fuck the game you yourself allow these game to fuck you if you understand my metafor
Unfortunately the wolf in me is gonna be stuck for another 30-45 minutes
You are a fucking genius with wordplay. You get started on a pun and just run it into the ground for a minute and never miss. It's actually an amazing talent
Quick update: Next time you decide that you need to beat Gurranc up at a low level, try luring the Black Blade Kindred to his door. The two of them are more than happy to beat eachother up for you!
Oh really? I didn't even know that. Appropriate though, the black blade kindred to the holder of the black blade itself
@Press Continue they won't aggro on eachother but they will both swing through the door if you stand near it, and they can absolutely deal a lot of damage to eachother. I did basically this same run a couple months ago and that's the only way I got through Gurrancs quest.
@@tristankendrick2582 I used the rot doggo and got through it that way
Cemetery Shades are how the game prepares you for PvP.
>Always backed up by gank squads
>Dual wield bleed weapons
>BHS spam
>Absolutely no Vigor.
Just like the majority of hosts you'll run into as an invader.
*that* explains why I almost never enjoy fighting them. Dodging works great in PvE but is just frustrating in PvP.
Elden ring pvp is the biggest pile of dogshit ever
DS3 will always be the Daddy
@@messymakaveli9098 After having played Elden Ring pvp every time I want to give ds3 pvp another chance I just end up getting headaches and have to stop after like an hour because I just can't deal with that shit.
@@Eo-ms3kw get better then
@@messymakaveli9098 Could say the same to you concerning ER pvp
your not the only one who thinks godrick is easier then margit. Godrick attacks arent designed to pusnish where as Margit's are.
Never thought about that. Huh weird to think Morgott/Margitt wasnt a great rune holder only because of him Omen birth. Since he is just a better duelist the Godrick. Heck even Godefroy is better.
I like to think it has a story reason. I see it like morgot/margit saying "godrick isn't getting any more tarnished. If one of them wants to fight him they're gonna be good enough to kill him."
@@ajjtazman like hes training godricks killer or something XD.
The other take is that Margot thinks Godrick is so weak if any tarnished reached him hed be done for.
@@cthulhurage4580 Actually Godrick killed a lot of Tarnished. He's weak for a demigod but he's like a fucking dinosaur compared to a normal human.
Godrick’s first phase is “harder” than his second phase. The extremely punishable fire breath is what kinda makes him a joke. It can be pretty intimidating just looking at it tho, not realizing that you can just walk behind him
Bloodhound's fang + morgott's curved sword dual wield would probably be a fun approach for the dlc
You mean the one we probably aren’t getting until next year or super late this year? Lmfao
@@fadeddragon123 your point being? They made the best game know to man and have (nearly) always made god tier dlcs
@@fadeddragon123 rather be late and godly than early and unfinished
@@fadeddragon123 so what? What's your point?
@@petrusheikkila734 just saying. Hype kills games. Don’t get hyped until it’s closer.
48:02 was just fucking beautiful. The way the music syncs up with press and Maliketh slamming their great weapons at the same time. It’s perfect
It may seem random that one of the enemies Gurranq makes you kill is the Red Wolf, but a wolf is kind of like a dog, and so is Gurranq. This is an intentional decision by From Software, subtly hinting to the player that this is a dog-eat-dog world.
1:04:20 I absolutely LOVE the sudden “anyway we’re gonna kill her”, thank you for another amazing video Press!
When you sing the German Version of Brother Jacob that killed me i cant stop laughing 😂😂
Well it starts with German Brother Jacob... but it can easily and tragically end in making german p*rn dubs...
@@PressContinue still better than dutch dubs lmao
I’m pretty sure most people consider Godrick to be easier than Margit. A good lore explanation that I have as a headcanon is because Morgott doesn’t want Godrick to get any stronger by grafting anyone else, so he has a projection of himself there to ward off any tarnished. It could be the complete opposite as well- Morgott knows that Godrick is the weakest shardbearer, and so he wants to make sure his Great Rune doesn’t fall into the hands of someone stronger.
Why doesn’t he kill godrick and take the great rune for himself
@@takkarali7611because he is a chill ma- Omen, a chill Omen
@@takkarali7611Morgott is Godfrey's son. Godrick is Godfrey's (great?)grandson.
They are related and Godrick didn't try to invade capital like Rykard and Radahn.
So morgott might be protecting him out of pity, like how you'd watch over your terminally ill cousin who is getting buillied by his schoolmates.
@@The-Enemy-Medic I like that theory. Margit kicked my ass alot, godrick I first tried with only a few extra levels when going through stormveil. He almost felt like a classic darksouls boss with just a lil more movement and bigger aoes
49:29 That's the true power of Destined Death. You actually killed the game.
I did a bestial sling only run (not RL1), and I gotta say, it was so fun, I'm probably gonna do it in the DLC, too. For anyone else interested in such a thing, here's some tips:
First, blue dancer charm is practically mandatory. If your total weight is less than 16, it boosts your damage by a significant amount. I'm not sure of the exact numbers, but it's somewhere like 1.5x at 15 weight, and 2x at 8 weight, with scaling between those. Weighing less than 8 doesn't scale further. In my playthrough, I two handed the clawmark seal in my main hand, and had the cinquedea in my offhand (the bestial scaling buff from the cinquedea still applies when you do this). I need to do some testing with the dragon communion seal, though, to see if its lower weight is worth more than the cinquedea boosting bestial incantations.
Second, bestial sling is an instant cast after performing an action, like catch flame is. This means its most useful feature is tossing a stone after dodging, very safe damage. Treat it like a melee weapon, but the range it does have means you won't whiff any swings. This is especially useful for being summoned to help people fight Mohg and Morgott. You can punish their aggressive attacks very consistently and rapidly, leading to fast staggers. You could spend some of your weight budget on an upgraded critical weapon, if you wanted to take advantage of those staggers. But I just use them to refresh buffs and drink FP restore, then toss rocks in their face until they get back up.
Finally, bestial sling is really the only damaging bestial incantation you need for this kind of build. Beast Claw and Rock Toss do more damage than Bestial Sling, sure. But they aren't instant actions, meaning they take too long to get out when you're right up in the Boss's face. You just do higher DPS sticking to just bestial sling. I do want to do some additional testing with dragon claw/maw and the aspects of the crucible: horn/tail incantations, though. They're physical too, so they might also benefit from this build, especially the dragon communion seal variant.
I never knew Godfrey was immune to the effects of Destined Death! No wonder he is THE gigachad Elden Lord 💪
1:37 i'm going as my black knife assassin character. Using the black knife is gonna make things a bit easier probably in the dlc.
The way the Godskin Noble breaks the pillar and the fragments just go into your eyes forever while you get blindsided is unintentionally hilarious
... well not at that moment I'd say...
Watched this one live! Was one of the most fun runs I've seen so far
The sped-up songs originally got on my nerves, but I've grown to enjoy them as a nice little part of your videos. Thanks for providing such entertaining content!
i absolutley LOVED that beuaty and the best into, keep up the good work
Great vid, pal. Enjoyed the streams as well. Keep it up
I like the idea for this challenge, bringing Destined Death to the Lands Between is badass, but with minimum requirements it prevents it from feeling like a power fantasy. Also, I love that you used the Austin Powers reference lol
Short Bow and Dual-Wield Daggers are what I used from day 1 on my first character. With the Short Bow on Torrent & Assassin's Gambit on one of the daggers you can breeze through nearly any zone. Throw in a little faith for Heals, Buffs & Ailment cleansing and you're Golden!
HOW DID I NOT KNOW YOU COULD USE A BOW ON THE HORSE?!
@@isprobablyjobhunting it took me a minute when doing my magic playthrough to realize that you could cast spells on Torrent, since all of my other runs have been melee. I didn't know how I was gonna fight Radahn since the only strategy I know against him is melee, but then I remembered "wait a minute, I'm a mage, I can just run away from him" and it was probably the easiest Radahn fight I've ever had (excluding summons)
Addicted to your videos after finding your madara's whistle video and tried it for myself
Keep up the good work
Very good video, you never disappoint🙂
“i feel like i died 666 times already as this beast is doing a number on me”. I like what you did there. Subbed😈
54:04
As someone who does have a solid grasp on Astel's moveset: how the fuck did that hit you
I have no idea. Even if you go frame by frame, it still looks kinda shady
18:15 OMG this part had me dying of laughter! 🤣🤣🤣
That part had me dying as well
Really enjoyed the streams! Thanks for the effort Press.
For the dlc, I dont know yet, Im thinking of either Sword+Shield and Crossbow, or a mageknight with Carian Slicer
This was fun to watch! My two calico beasts also followed along, and they took notes! Not sure if they plan a play through, or if I should suspect sudden small simultaneous slingings.
Honestly I did a dagger run and it was the most fun run I've done. I actually felt like my speed and damage were equal and the versatility that daggers can have with the variety of AoW we can use, it's an amazing and completely overlooked weapon type and playstyle
I loved when he said "Its beasting time", hit me hard 🗿
And then he roared all over the enemies.
There is also a Polish version of Brother Jacob, it goes:
"Panie Janie! Panie Janie!
Rano wstań! Rano wstań!
Wszystkie dzwony biją, x2
Bim, bam, bom, bim, bam, bom."
I think the weapon I’m gonna use for dlc will be the star fists, so fun to use
loving the frequent uploads
Woo! Love these runs. My weapon of choice is likely going to be the rot rapier. I'm a predictable person. That or the pizza cutter.
my DLC starting weapon will probably be the Wing of Astel, it’s so much fun to use
Awesome job maaaan! Very appropriate, the super-dope metal ending (rock on emoji)
I’m so excited for this video. Sorry Mr. Continue, I don’t have the time to watch a bunch of 4 hour streams. Been waiting for this condensed version! Whoop Whoop!
I think you might be my new favorite challenge video creator, just such unique challenge I don't see in other places!!
Thanks and welcome to the channel :D
Just commenting to help with the algorithm. More people should now about this channel. Thank you for all the laughs you’ve provided Press!
Your Black Knife Assassin puns made me snort.
Good job 😂
For the dlc I plan on using my sword of night and flame build as I will also have access to all miracles and sorceries to use for my advantage.
Man your videos were great before but you’re really getting better with each video. Keep up the good work!
that "Alright" in the beginning of your videos gives me life, Press
I love you, you weird man that lives in the country next to mine
47:35
About Maliketh's Destined Death, I recently learned how to deal with it for a no hit fight which is uploaded for proof.
If you're light rolling, you can just keep rolling to his right and behind him, the sword thrust has no splash hitbox, so you don't need to time it. Once you get behind him you can punish.
Best intros, proper taste in music and just groovy all around.
do you name what the name of the intro song is?
@@Johan-tq3fk You might have figured it out by now from the chapter description, it's "Beauty and the Beast" by Nightwish. The quote at the end is from one of my favorite songs of the same band, "Beauty _of_ the Beast" (strange naming I know).
Oh yay! Perfect video at the perfect time! Thanks! ^.^
And though I should be eating, that accent and your jokes are gonna make me less hungry and more thirsty! haha
6:18 I immediately started singing after the first few notes hahah
was waiting for this video asf when i saw the 1 stream
I would love to see more of this Elden Ring cosplay challenge runs, not necesarly level 1
for DLC for sure i'm using my fav combo... dual erdsteel daggers, one freeze and other bleed
Dude u are the absolute best my guy!! For a while I had u in my top 3 but I’ve gotta say that u are my guy. Much respect to Baron and plateau peak who are the shit as well
It's always interesting to see the Godskin Duo being such a roadblock in challenge runs. In my casual playthrough it was one of the easiest fights in the game because I had both my mimic and Bernahl to act as distractions. Can't wait for the DLC. I'll definitely continue using my +25 Greatsword on it.
1:31 My trusty Magic Longsword and Magic Bastard Sword maybe Dark Moon Greatsword just like on my first playthrough
Holy fuck, that was a blast from the past. When I was in school, we had to sing that are you sleeping song in english, french, and german.
I absolutely love that the running joke of the Elden Ring band stuck around
Well it's more a continuation of the Bloodborne tradition
For the DLC I would probably choose dual lances with one of them having black flame tornado. No summons, of course!
The twinblades will always do me right even since the dark souls 2 days, hoping to fight amazing bosses like The Gloam-Eyed Queen and Miquella with it
For the DLC I'll probably run the Godslayer's Greatsword. Kinda boring, but it just feels the best to me. Fastest Ultra-Greatsword in the game and has a pretty good weaopon-art.
Also playing on faith on the side, so that just works like a charm.
I'm probably going to use a combination of the blasphemous blade and the envoy's long horn in the dlc, and some faith spells. The astel move was so shady hitbox-wise that it looked like ds2
56:11
I remember this fight being very hard, not because of Blaidd but because my xbox didn't liked this area that much so the frames dropped at horrible numbers
Because you asked so nicely; when the Shadow Of The Erdtree looms over us, I'll be bringing over a quality build character from my previous Soulsborne runs, who mains axes and axe-ish weapons, into a fresh playthrough for the DLC.
Because you make videos so nicely; love your work, sir.
The Austin Powers reference got me! Great video :)
Thank you Mr Wolf :)
I would've chosen the song Lian with The Wolf by Primordial for the band for this but that said, great run. Witty as always man.
Keep up the good work mate
When you're trying to eak out your entire equipment load, a beast mark is much more versatile than a low dex required ranged weapon.
I've found beastial sling to be useful when playing as a heavily armoured shield, strength build. Very limited inventory space when using the heaviest of equipment possible. Beastial Sling is a quick cast, low fp, reusable, ranged weapon against flying enemies. Bats, and any other rapidly moving creatures will be stunned, letting you close the range for the kill. Very contextual. But the beast mark has other slots, and a bow weighs more and does less. It was fun playing the character with such high strength. The beast mark scaling was literally him casting the spell, pick up rock and fucking throw it at you, and I really appreciate that.
What a fun cover of Through the Fire and the Flames
since ya asked, whenever i get elden ring on a system i can play it, along with the DLC, it's no question. full on crossbow run.
...god DAMN you, Press Continue! You reminded me I need to make a new character to bumrush Ranni's questline again...
1:36 Given that the dlc is about Miquella most likely, I’m probably gonna be using St. Trina’s sword!! I think it’ll be really weird!!
That was some pro dodging at the end.
When you realize that everyone that posts a video on UA-cam that's over an hour long always has twitch chat open and then somewhere down the line of the video starts talking to the twitch chat about something completely random
Me "welp guess we know why they don't remember to upgrade the weapons"
DLC will be my beloved Eleonora's Poleblade
Came for Maliketh, subbed for Nightwish. Nice, dude. 👍
Fun run as always!
Aww thank you so much bro! I appreciate that :D
In the DLC I would use either, lightning highland axe, crystal sword or Loretta’s war sickle
31:00 He’s just completely lost his mind here lmfao
Nerding out for a moment:
Incantations (just like Miracles in Dark Souls) are a catalyst for your faith in the divine, that is usually a passage of a tale, an epos about something, like a bible verse. Reciting it in your mind and with full belief in these higher powers, they grant you, their believer, at sufficient faith their powers.
In other, more ridiculous words, you believe hard enough and it happens.
I choose to believe the +0 dagger was no mistake but Press showing who’s the top dog by limiting not only his level but also his weapon
My weapon choice for dlc will be Darkmoon. I made an actual level 150 build for pvp and dlc playthroughs. No comet or anything but I will definitely use magic. It will be really fun playing it in ng+. Can’t wait for it to release 😊
Figured I'd answer the dlc question as I listen to this.
I figured when the dlc comes out I'm gonna use the Nobles Estoc with a frost infused Carian Grandeur.
Anyway..time to watch the rest of the video lol
Grats on the run!
And the accent made me suspicious, but now I’m sure… A fellow Flemishman!
No no, I'm a Dutch guy. relatively close to the Belgium border though but definitely Dutch
I've been wondering for a while what editing softare you use for your videos.
Anyway, Press came to us with another banger. Keep up the good stuff!
I use Wondershare Filmora.
But I've only started using that From the Scarlet Aeonia video onwards. Before that... believe it or not... I used windows moviemaker 2012... yeah...
Keen Guardian Sword Spear will be my first dlc run weapon. Best weapon for me haha
i'm gonna enter the dlc with the 3 weapons that have accompanied me through the whole series: a straight/curved sword (scimitar in this case), the claymore and the partizan. An extremely reliable and versatile set (Plus all the other weapons i have on my ng+ character, cause i like to vary).
And finally my trusty fire incantations.
We were so happy when Astel came up after the balls conversation. A boss made of them!
This guy is criminally underrated I love you bro
Funnily enough, I plan on entering the DLC for the first time with a Beast Build of my own.
Cant wait for the sick Miquelle solo during the intro once the dlc is out
Yaaay, every day you upload a video is a geat day press
My weapon of choice will definitely be the Godskin Peeler/ Eleonora’s Poleblade. Love Twinblades and those two have some the coolest designs I’ve seen in Elden Ring.
Watched this live, most of it. Good times. Remember the BOAT MAN.
Just remembered watching the Gideon fight. 😂😂😂
I certainly wasn't expecting to listen Nightwish in an Elden ring video, but it was an amazing surprise :D
Going into dlc with my Tank Build for sure, 2H Giant Crusher & stowed Blasphemous Blade, & some other goodies I like using for PvP
Also to explain the PVP part because back in Dark Souls 3 PVP years including myself would always run tears of denial. So we would use a quick-moving little damage pack like a dagger or a quick-moving spell like Farron dart to make sure they're dead.
Rock sling functions almost identically but the upside being at the shotgun and it does more damage so you could chip dmg people technically safer because you could do it at higher HP values
My wrapon for the runthrough will be whatever new category they add that i find first. Great katana, great flail, hopefully some cool dual weapons like crow quills and the breakdance sword from ds3. I miss those unique weapons.
Maliketh's Black Blade, I will deliver Destined Death to all the DLC bosses
1:04:14 I did not know she could cancel the second half of that move!
i think the max hp drain works but only on the hoarah loux phase of the fight not the godfrey phase. so im guessing it was intentional for one reason or another.
I don't know why I'm always surprised at his wordplay skills
On my first playthough, I did a strength faith build, and I was considering on respecing into either pure faith or strength because I couldn't find a strength faith weapon that I liked.
Until I beat maliketh and I got his sword, and everything clicked, and my build became really enjoyable and good, and it's the one I'll be doing the dlc with for sure
Cross Naginata has been my favorite weapon as odd as it might seem. I like the move set and style, not to mention my favorite ash of war being spectral Lance. I love throwing spears
