    In today's video we are tackling the most requested challenge run I've done; No leveling, No weapon upgrades. In theory, it sounds like your average challenge run. One that an experienced speedrunner and challenge runner like myself should be able to pull off with relative ease.
    The level 1 no upgrades challenge is a classic among Fromsoftware games, it's the purest expression of skill. It forces you to learn every boss and difficult encounter, and the lack of levelups means you will be lacking the health of a casual playthrough.
    In other words, I will not have enough health to survive anything in the late game, and my damage will be mediocre at best.
    I worked hard on this video, and in 2024 I want to step up my youtube content so please let me know what you liked and didn't like about the video. Enjoy guys, thanks for watching!

  • @akoicarp
    @akoicarp 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    The fact that you included no weapon upgrades takes this to a whole new level of insane. I just finished doing some damage testing on quality builds and while it turns out that scaling from levels is way less important than most think, weapon *upgrades* are absurdly important - right up there with maxed P-Organ upgrades and BiS Amulets. And you can't even equip those amulets because your Capacity is base!
    Never been much of a speedrun fan before but found myself enjoying your recent ones anyway. I am sure as a creator it's nerve-wracking to branch out into new formats, so I want to say I love the idea of mixing in challenge run.
    Gratz and good luck in the future!

    • @Blanxz
      @Blanxz  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Thanks for the kind words! Yeah, this is definitely the hardest run I've done of this game so far. In speedruns and most other challenge runs you're able to get absurdly powerful and bosses are cakewalks.

    • @Blanxz

      You can make it as easy, or hard on yourself as you like. Some weapon combinations are stupidly overpowered, and if you go out of your way to get all the quartz you can get the best upgrades very quickly. That, plus the fact that summons are ridiculously strong, and how strong you can get by leveling up, and alot of bosses have been nerfed all contribute. This challenge was alot of fun because none of that mattered, no leveling means no health or no damage; no throwables meant melee only, and no summons meant the boss was constantly aggro'd on me.

  • @LamiiBunny
    @LamiiBunny 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Now that I've finished watching it, I want to say it's a great video, but you can feel it's not a format you normally upload.
    I liked it, enjoyed it, solid 7/10. Below is some feedback, if this is not welcome, then feel free to ignore it c:
    Overall the way of editing this video comes across more as a highlight reel for the stream than its own format of content.
    A few factors that emphasize this:
    Between Andreus and BRB everything is cut. We don't even see you pick up the Acid Spear that you use for a fair few fights.
    You also cut directly into the 2nd attempt at BRB so we miss out on you even approaching the fight or thoughts about it for the challenge.
    In general a lot of the traversal is cut, which I can understand for the length of the video, but it's included better in the latter half of the video.
    Other things we don't see, is you picking up is the circular saw, we just suddenly see you using it on the jester puppet.
    You talk about the Two Dragon Sword, but we never see you pick up Alidoro early on. Our first sight of him when you're buying amulets. And even after Swamp Thing we only see you run from him, we don't even see you buying the sword.
    From a story telling and narrative perspective, the youtube viewer misses out on a lot of small things, such as how you actually approach bosses/tackling them etc. This can be remedied by showing you pick up certain weapons/buying abrasives/putting weapons together or how you upgrade your P Organ with the Quartz you get.
    These events might seem unimportant compared to showing off the fun challenging boss fights, but for a youtube audience it helps to create a pacing and through-line in the challenge.
    Above are just a few examples of these, I'd have to go through the full video again and potentially vods to give more detailed examples, since I didn't watch the stream, but I hope it gives you an idea of what I'm getting at. Keep up the good content though!

    • @Blanxz
      @Blanxz  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The early game was way too boring to include in the final cut, I think the pacing is fine tbh. I was even considering skipping entire boss fights/areas because it gets interesting later on and wouldn't want viewers to sit through 30 minutes of early game.
      I do still appreciate the feedback! It's nice to have an extra set of eyes, and some constructive criticism. I just think for this run, I was a little bored for the first half of it, which is a me problem anyway. I wasn't feeling very inspired by the content before Rosa Isabelle
