Oh yeah another dark souls review count me in

Dark souls good

I'm only 40 minutes in, but I love your analysis, Dark Souls 1 is truly still FromSoftware's greatest achievement

„ I rlly love this wall. It keeps you in a closed space and Highlights the door that you can go through to exit this room. Rlly a masterpiece“ Nah but I rlly like this video. Dark souls 1 has just this aestetic that rlly hits different. Great video my guy!

oh golly i was binge watching all the vids! Having them all compiled is surely nice yepi

this video is a gem! started watching it yesterday to relax and just finished it while having breakfast :)

it is now mandatory to make a 3 hour essay about every from software game. I'm sorry, but that's how it goes

Getting cursed in the Depths is such an amateur move. TRUE gangstas get cursed aaaaall the way down the Great Hollow!

Fuck an Erdtree. Fromsoft should've just said fuck it and made more DS1 dlc

as much as I adore Elden Ring, my heart will always belong to Dark Souls The dark dreariness of everything, the timey wimey convoluted shenanigans of the story, the themes of hope and dispair, light and dark, old and new It was far from a perfect game, but man was it close.

"Babe wake up, a new 3 hours long Dark Souls analysis video just dropped"

goated

Ever since my first play through, Ds1 has been my favorite game of all time. I can’t exactly describe the feeling I got from it. For some reason I had an odd since of nostalgia, even though it was the first Fromsoft game i’ve ever played. This game will never be topped in my opinion.

WTF IS A FROG RAY?! I've played for this long and never seen that boi in my life!

You were able to articulate everything that makes this my favorite game of all time. Thank you. It’s deeply meaningful knowing someone else feels the same way about it. The vibes remain unmatched.

yoo used to this to listen to while studying japanese great video

The rats obsession is very Grimbeard of you.

I desperately want a remake of ds1 that fixes lost izalith. Hell I’d take a good mod.

Agreed it is the best game ever made. Then FromSoft made another best game ever made with Bloodborne.

I think this is the first video of yours I've watched - I gotta say I love your sense of humor. The Bad to the Bone riff when the skull rolled into frame with no other acknowledgement got me so good, you've earned a sub.

4:30 animal expert here thats a frog

Good video overall, good to have someone pointing out the unsung merits of the late game areas. Two corrections I wish to make though: 1. The Skull Lantern is a guaranteed drop for killing every necromancer in the Catacombs. It's a rare drop but you're guaranteed to get one for killing all of them. 2. Nito is the "central" skeleton in the ball. It's hard to make out in-game but concept art and character model view makes it very clear. He's a giant skeleton and he has a bunch of smaller ones kind of fused to his chest. This also makes sense because Nito, as an ancient being, was likely a giant. It's also consistent with the size of his coffin.

New favorite souls TH-camr

I beat the four kings on my first run and never had trouble with it. Don't move around too much and you won't fall to your doom👍👍👍

Tomb of the giants is really fun at times. You just have to be careful with the giant dog skeletons. And it's cool how you can see ash lake before you enter the tomb.👍👍👍👍👍

gotta love the way he says RATS

BUMP

This is absolute quality the entire way through. If this is you uncomfortable on the mic then I cannot wait to see what you produce in the future.

I love me Dark Souls 1 Hour long essays

Id say that DS1 is definitly in my top 3 dark souls games.

managed to get into the DLC completely by accident. found the portal in the basin while invading, pendant I found cause I killed big blue man in the archives

I love the ambient noise when traversing the forest before artorias. Something about the thunder makes it sounds real.

I will never not click on an hours long souls retrospective

RATS!!

Ghoulish what now

I really enjoy a video that’s not complaining and is just kinda vibing on how great the game is. There’s something so wholesome to it. I have an understanding of the deeper lore, my own opinions on Miyazaki’s more complex philosophy slowly explored in every title. I love them all. But there’s something just magical about someone having a great time with it and not shitting on another game in the series or being miserable. We can all learn a lesson in finding our Sun.

Ive been playing video games for over 30 years. No game has given me the same specific feeling that playing ds1 for the first time did. I still cant put my finger on what the exact "vibe" is, but damn. I remember specifically getting out of the asylum and looking out at the snowy mountains and thinking itll be a game i remember for decades

Wall of text ahead - I am sorry for anyone actually reading all that: I do wonder - you see - I am what you would call a "Souls Veteran". I started my Fromsoft adventure with Dark Souls 1, later switched to the prepare to die edition, then went on to Dark Souls 2, then Dark Souls 3 and afterwards Sekiro. I got Bloodborne from my Roommates back in University and am currently playing through the shadow of the erdtree expansion for elden ring. Bloodborne was and still is by far my absolute favorite out of the Soulsborne Games. The Lovecraftian themes mixed with the hyperaggressive gameplay are just pure bliss for me. Now with the Elden Ring DLC I dunno how to feel. Don't get me wrong, I like the Bosses being harder (I don't like them being absolute Damage Sponges though, seriously what's with their health??). I like the huge area I can explore, but some of it just feels...empty? I dunno how to explain, there never was a moment in Dark Souls 1,2,3 / Bloodborne or Sekiro where I thought that there was too much downtime. In Elden Ring however I am discovering more and more empty areas, specifically the Abyssal Woods in the DLC. There's just nothing there except for the best boss of the DLC but we got an area the size of 1/2 Limgrave and there's NOTHING there except for a few rats and ONE dungeon with said boss. I dunno. I liked the dungeons in the DLC more than anything else. Maybe FromSoft is just better at the more closed in areas design wise. I had an absolute BLAST with Armored Core 6 to the point of it being my favorite FromSoft game, so they got level design down when it comes to missions and enclosed areas. But the open world is not the best aspect of the game. There's many beautiful areas and visuals, you have messmerizing landscapes and it's got a huge variety when in gameplay variety when it comes to the legacy dungeons. But I feel like all of them could have been non-open world and it would have been fine. I get this is their first attempt at an open world, but somehow they got worse the further you went on in the DLC so I don't know if open world is "their thing". I recently played Ghost of Tsushima. That game also has an open world that doesn't have too much fighting going on all the times, there's random encounters on the streets and fields as well as dedicated camps and castles, but there's much to explore in the open world like hidden character upgrades, new outfits, etc. - the same stuff as in elden ring, it's just way better executed. If we get another Elden Ring DLC, I hope they'll work on their "empty" open worlds since this aspect is very obvious and very annoying. Because as it stands, I kinda gotta agree that Dark Souls 1..it's objectively seen a better executed game in my opinion. I'm just stuck on elden ring because of the QoL improvements. You can jump. You can summon a spirit ash if you truly want to make the game a bit easier for you (or fairer in case of double boss encounters). You have a *MAP* and you can teleport from the get go. Also - better graphics and more weapon variety as well as POWER STANCING.

This is peak satire

good video deserves more attention

I remember playing Sekiro first, and thinking it was the best game ever made. I saw gameplay of Dark Souls and thought it looked so much worse at first and was upset that everyone was praising it far more than they did Sekiro, so I played it out of spite. Yeah it's the best game ever made

Superb delivery, unpretentious writing and insightful reflections. Subbed.

wonderful and captivating. love being along for the ride with a guy who just loves dark souls

I love DS1 so much, it feels like home

Dark souls 1 and 3 are special. Especially when played together

I love the emphasis you put on the soundscape. I recently did a ER run without music and while it's still good it doesn't hit as hard as previous Fromsoft games. Which is fine, ER is not DS or BB but it shines a light on how incredible DS1 was sonically. Sidenote: There's a a POV video of a person walking from one end of the ER map to another, which inspired me to play the game with no music because I felt the music ruined the vibe (though many in the comments disagreed lol) Also your style and speech remind me of Running Shine.
