Parry! Riposte! Parry! Riposte!
Demon's Souls is like Dark Souls if Dark Souls didn't know how to do math. And because of that, the daggers in this game are absolutely ridiculous when it comes to balancing. But considering every boss has a gimmick, will that be enough?

Can you beat xcom 2 but with only one soldier
Come on Lemon! I was gonna say First! Now I can't....so I guess I will be forced to watch the video....but I ain't happy about it!
Fine I am...
Yes lemon my son thank you I now crown you lemon d backlogs king of souls and all things fromsoft
Based sponsorship
I wonder if sps and whips is going to be coming back in ds3 also where can i submit a challenge suggestion
Lemon just has such an amazingly pleasant voice, hearing that classic introduction after a long, stressful day was just what I needed to settle back in the couch and relax.
it so true
I put him on a playlist to fall asleep to at night.
That sounds kinda gay tho
@@Clexie368 3. Why do it sound guy ?
@@rickyslawsTo answer point two, his wife I’d assume.
How about a Blueblood Sword run? Once you actually get the sword, it might not be so bad, but building for Luck and using a broken sword until you get it may be rough.
That's actually a really good idea.
I approve of any run that's luck-based. =P
You'd think it's a challenge run, but honestly Blueblood is deceptively OP when you know how it works, to the point of being the single most powerful weapon in Demon's Souls when built properly. so the only real challenge of such a run would be actually getting through the 7 bosses required to get it.
Funny thing about it that most overlook, but the Luck Scaling is deceptively poor until extremely high levels. so realistically speaking for your average run it's better to only go to 20 Luck (where scaling simply drops almost entirely until 50) then throw everything else into Magic, since for whatever reason the thing is buffable making it a nice double dip on stat scaling.
@@superhypershadowx Well ackhually it is only 6
The run would actually start with a terrible grind anyway, considering you need to farm for the broken sword. On Lenny's broken sword run, he ended up getting a Vaati cameo via Discord call while farming it!
Lemon: Don't worry, I'll be doing more Dagger runs in the future!
Diablo 2: hehe, Poison Dagger only soon!!!
Grim Dawn would be more fun 😉
23:38 lemon going from “it got a cape 😁” to full rorschach is absolutely beautiful
batman
Batman doing a Rorschach impression
just realised... out of any of them, he chose one that DIDN'T have a cape...
Batshach
@@blackthrone6976but it did have a cape?
Hitting the tail was possible in the OG game with the butcher knife or the bone smasher by properly timing their backstep attack whixh was a big overhead.
Do you know whereabouts in the arena? I tried for ~30 minutes in various spots to no avail with the DBS. Definitely clipped through his front tendrils and thought some of the hits would've connected but no dice.
Lemon: "maybe I should do a Persona Challen-"
Me: *Y E S* -while pointing aggresively at the phone-
Y e s, this
The only issue is the normally extreme game length...but I too would love to see this. You could probably manage it if you just fast forward through all the dialogue, but...that's so much of what makes it fun.
What sort of challenge were you thinking and which game?
If we're talking persona 3, you could do only MC allowed, no MC allowed, starter persona only.
@@DamnDaimen I would kill for lemon to do a challenge any megaton game especially 3R where he could be one of the first
"Solaire 0.5"... isn't Ostrava more like Siegward, though? Sure he doesn't have the hmmm of a true thinker but his general presence still shares more similarities to the glorious onion than our original jolly co-operator.
There's another npc that helps you in world 1 who also shares tge voice witg Siegmayer. He is more close to that
I’d say Biorr would be closer to Siegward than Ostrava. He’s also incredibly competent in combat, unlike Ostrava.
I too refer to the use of throwing knives as "aerial stabbing" so I'll let this one slide
damn Lemon, you really are the king of souls challenge runs to me
I mean, with the amount of times I've seen you pop up in a Baron or PressContinue video and the popularity of the "DS1 one-shot everything" videos, you might just be the unofficial packleader of souls tubers
Idk for me the kinh is ymfah, but yeah lemon is like the most popular one
@@marcalcantara1174 To each their own. I like Prod's videos. He's got a certain charm to his personality and editing that's just up my alley.
@@marcalcantara1174ymfah is the forsaken king, hallowed be his name
25:05 The dry bones sound absolutely killed me, that was amazing.
Lemon got a Persona sponsor? 😮
Edit: 2:13 Oh Heck Yes!
I thought he was talking about danmachi at the start
@@jayewrite1256 danmachi?
Orpheus only is actually easier in Reload I think so maybe playing the game going for the True Ending using only Persona's from the last Social Link you leveled up would be interesting. Of course you could plan out your route and get Ultimate Personas by the True Ending and there are the DLC Persona's but having to specifically max out the Social Links in a certain way so you can actually get the Ultimate Personas for the Endgame just sounds like a really cool Gun Game concept.
The reason why Orpheus only is easier in Reload though is because FES both ramps in difficulty much quicker and doesn't have the new systems from 5 that make Orpheus only a much more even playing field. It can be done, but dear God is that Reaper even scarier in FES than he was in 5.
I'd like to see Nekomata only? Can be done in P3 or P5R. I'm biased so probably P5R but meh, that's just me. No particular reason other than I just like Nekomata.
I was about to tell you that you needed to attack Dragon Gods pillars with one hit at a time. You’re intended to use a blunt weapon with this, a thief ring and a stronger armor. I had this same problem when I got the remake.
Hurry a new backlogs vid 🎉🎉
The run ended like: " either you die a hero or live long enough to become the villain "
The callback (and your delivery) at 8:00 was fantastic.
If you’re open to a Baldur’s Gate 3 run, it could be fun to do a “firebomb” only run in it
8d6 fire damage in a 20 foot radius?
*JUST FIREBALL*
The pure joy in lemons voice when he says “it’s got a cape”
It is a nice swishy cape though, I also thought, "oh, cool" when I saw it 😉
can I just say I'm SO GLAD you got a PS5 so we can all enjoy lots of Lemony Demon's Souls goodness
Nice pfp
thanks! PixelSketcher is the artist@@everythingsalright1121

Throwing Knives ARE IN FACT DAGGERS. THEY COUNT.
I literally discoverd you and started to binge watch your videos two days ago. You got a great, relaxing voice. Really nice humor that ain't over the top. Keep it up!
Lemon, I was feeling really bad recently and even just seeing your thumbnail helped, and actually watching the video helped tenfold. Thank you so much for making content. It really brightens my day.
That ending cutscene is always so needlessly brutal, great run!
Great video, The daggers only run of ds1 is one of my favorite videos, I revisit it from time to to, I just love daggers is souls games haha.
I have been living abroad for the better part of half a year and your videos have been a great company a way to relax and pass the time.
Keep up the good work friend. Can't wait to see another great challenge run
Watching these runs always makes my day so much better, good luck in your next game/challenge run!
Your dedication to the craft is quite impressive Lemon 👍🏻
Keep up the good work brother
It's been a pretty bad day so i desperately needed this. Thank you so much, Lemon.
Hey Lemon!
Great to see this on the feed!
Time to indulge into the pleasures of seeing you beat a new run 😁
Quality video as always, Lemon! Keep up the good work. Your content is alway worth the wait
Hey Lemon when can we get that Elden Ring Firebomb only run
Just like your fever dream about hitting the Storm King's tail, apparently I had a fever dream about killing all the bosses. I could have sworn you didn't need to defeat every area boss to beat the game, but apparently I was wrong. (My brain swears I used to skip the Maneater and Old Monk fights on all my replays of the PS3 plays)
Well, you can fogwall snipe one of the Maneaters. And False King Allant. So you may have, to some extent :)
My insomnia is back and another video with your calm voice is just what I needed! 😅
Been waiting for a new upload for way too long, and then you throw in a Rorschach impression and that made my f@&$ing day haha😂
Keep up the great work mate.
Can’t wait for the next one.
hey lemon if you haven’t checked it out I highly recommend the Atelier series for the simple fact that making various elements of high explosives is the norm for the series
you start with basically chestnuts in a bag and end with bombs doing thousands in damage inflicting every ailment known to man and just causing endless pain to your foes
If you mean the series with Marie, then YES!!
More dagger runs in the future. You had my curiosity now you have my attention.
P.s. Will there be any similar challenge runs like curved swords only? Or spears only?
Let’s gooo I’m on time. I’ve been following this channel for a while. Thanks for the video and keep up the excellent work.
Another amazing challenge mate. You do this world justice with you positive energy and your excellent content.
Man, that front stab animation is fuckin brutal. I love it.
Always a good day to watch Lemon do a challenge
Thank you lemon for being great honestly no other UA-camr compares when it comes to calming me down
Love all your Souls challenge runs but def loved your recent Diablo 2 and Pikmin runs. Always great journeys to watch 🍷
I had a similar run with just the secret dagger for most of it. That weapon is insanely powerful, especially when you have high dexterity :)
A "Fire spell only" stream might be a fun opening bit for P3r. Since y'know, we won't know any of the core changes that could make deeper challenge runs impossible
I love how confident you are in this video! Keep it up
I needed this kind of content after all my work today
Thank you 😁
cue the stabby stick! the demons know no fear like my chosen butterknife
Tower Knight was like "That's right, I can take anything you dish out at me---" (Oh god there go my organs)
Alright, this was a good one. He should've dodged more though...
I love your content Lemon! Excited to see what your future holds for you!
Just discovered your channel. I love everything about it. Thank you for making awesome content.
The batman impression was great love that lemon😂🙌🏻
that was rorschach from watchmen
@@daddy.actualhe did Batman at 24:36
Was that ending actually an accident?
YOOOO PLEASE DO A PERSONA RUN!! I love the series so much and your my fav challenge run UA-camr,I would absolutely love a persona run!
Maybe a Magic run just for the fun of it?
Probable not good for a video, but as a backup idea for a stream could be fun.
And great video as always, med school is kinda hard so having something to watch on My breaks is awesome, keep the good work 🥭.
Lemon on a Wednesday??? The firebomb goddess has truly blessed us
You, tulok and barrons castle are the big three i watch at night. It is so relaxing to Just lay in your bed after a long day of trying not to off yourself because of everything. What a nice voice you have too
Lemon can literally play and make a challenge in any game and I will happily watch it ❤️ it's always a treat when a new video drops
Lemon!! I just have to say I love that you are using cult of the lamb music in the background!
Just in time for the video! I always wondered if daggers were good in DeS
Really enjoy your content. Keep it up. Challenge I'd like to see from demon souls, magic only. No consumables (apart from grass and spice) and no weapons. Wands or talismans only
Hell yeah new video.
Love your content and am always looking forward to the next video.
It always makes my day.
Thank you lemon have a good day.
Hell yeah just got off work was about to start a demon souls run and lemon launches a video that gives me the perfect build inspiration
Love these videos, keep em coming!
Hey I just want to say your channel inspired me to beat demon souls without leveling recently. It's a fun little challenge I recommend you do! I started as a knight because the shield allows you to get through most of the game and his int stat is high enough to allow for spells for later bosses.
Lemon at this point I realize I don’t care what game you play it’s gonna be a killer video! Keep up the good work!
Nice run as always. Your brilliant narration makes my and everyone's time for sure.
If anyone can leave a run recommendation, mine really is like Diablo 2 with companions only (mercenaries, I mean)
I adore the fact that you used the music from Anchordeep in Cult of the Lamb for this video ❤
Ah Vectorman music if I’m not mistaken. You sir are a man of culture! Thanks for the content!
21:25 lemon's singing is impeccable 👏👏👏👏👏👏
New backlogs souls video? Finally I've only binged all of your videos since the last one
Blessed to see another run once again 🎉
Lemon you’ve become my #1 favorite souls content creators since I first started watching you in 2022
Another great video there Lemon!
Also, I'd like to officially blame you 😛
I've enjoyed watching your Dark Souls vids so much that I've gone back in to try playing it again. Like so many, I bounced off it the first time.
I've also picked up Salt and Sanctuary after watching all of your vids on that, and that's your fault as well 😛😄😂🤣
I love how when Lemon is given an actual weapon he just crushes everything.
I enjoy your content, mate. You made me want to play Dark Souls one again.
Really want more "behind the run" vids. Theyre always cool and interesting af.🎉
Wohooo, what a wonderful surprise this Wednesday evening. A Backlogs video!
new demons souls vid? i havent been this happy since i last played palworld 10 min ago. damn you work
This was less of a challenge run and more of an OP build! lol...Great video!
I always love lemon’s thumbnail but this one just looks stunning. Nice job.
Lmao 🤣 this is his funniest video yet I genuinely busted up laughing several times because of his jokes
Thank you so much and don't ever change
I recently started a new run in demon souls and I just can’t stop looking at the beautiful designs of all the worlds and characters
Hey lemon, big fan. I had suggested the dragon head stone run on ds1 and was so happy when you did it. If you have the time could you maybe try beating ds1 using only resins? Also could you check out a turn based RPG called disguea hour of darkness? They have a type of character called prinnies you can throw that will explode like a fire bomb! The fire bomb academy must know if you can beat it using only prinny bomb! Thatnks!
I love how I watched Ymfah demon souls level 1 earlier and Lemon is using part of it in this challenge lol, great video.
Holy hell that Rorschach impression is spot on. If I hadn’t listened to your voice for so many hours I don’t think I would have even noticed it wasn’t straight from the movie.
"Hey, it's Lemon."
That always means we're in for a good time
Best way to start getting off work. New backlog video timeee
You'd think a lemons biggest fear would be small sharp metal objects but no ours is fearless and wields them. Great videos as always!
I say this to every challenge runner i watch: I don't consider a challenge failed if you are forced by the game to play outside of the challenge rules.
Loved your video man! Keep it up!
I think that the throwing knives/kunai count for this though
Throwing daggers definitely count, bravo!
I was literally just about to look for a stream vod when I saw you just uploaded
Crazy video, can you do a ds3 mimic drops only run?
Lemon is back with a banger again, never dissapoints!
Man I just love lemon and im happy I caught a video about right when it released lemon is the main reason I discovered fromsoft games and I have to say thank you so much lemon
Thank you for giving me something to listen to while doing homework!
My very first playthrough when Demons Souls released was learning to parry with daggers-only. Thank you for the nostalgic reminder.
Ah, a midweek gift. Right on time! This was a fun run to watch. Made me ugly laugh double digit times. Nice work, Lemon!
Its always good when Lemon drops a new video
I was having a bad day then I got a notification of a new backlog video! So now it's a good day
It’s very fitting that the daggers only run ends with a backstab:)
Sorry I’m late, just wanted to say thanks, you inspired me to start a firebomb only run on DS1, just beat The Dynamic Duo of Ornstein and Smough, having fun ❤
YES PLEASE DO A PERSONA RUN!!!! (Also congrats on the Persona sponsor!)
