“Its a greatsword, I’m not gonna use that”
Oh you poor innocent elden ring soul, greatswords are freaking amazing in 3.
They are freaking amazing in Elden Ring too actually
they are quite strong in ER too.
did my whole first playthrough with a greatsword.
I str8 beat so many DS3 bosses without dying even once using a greatsword. Elden Ring I used Curved Swords. I miss the great combos that Greatswords have, being able to lunge & stab, swing and smash gives great flexibility but I cannot deny the power of the CAW CAW!! JUMP ATTACK!
He is on dex build
@@The_Man_In_Redlaughs in agreement with guts sword
Watching someone play this game without a tutorial is great. It’s like re-experiencing the game again for the first time.
imagine using a tutorial on your first playthrough of a video game. it takes all the fun out of it
I can feel that xD seeing the attempts on Abyss Watchers reminds me of my own struggles I had in DS3 with it being the first Dark Souls I ever played
yea except this time I live in your walls aha
i remeber being 13 and playing on keyboard and racking up 50 deaths to them having no clue i was making it harder by using keyboard and not going to the cathedral first good times@@Zurui1150
Not for me it’s not… at all.
But that’s cool if it has that effect on you.
Watching this guy struggle in areas that I’ve breezed through multiple times is very satisfying
He's so bad it kinda hurts to watch
Imagine when he gets to catacomb of carthus
@@thefail1999Ithryll of Boreal Valley…
"Give me a boss, please!!!" One second later: "take back outside..." 😅😂
As soon as he begged for a boss I was like " You are going to sorely regnet your wish"😂😂😂 Abyss Watchers on my first playthrough was very similar to the video😂
@@firecoockie1620bist du Deutsch?
You can jump out of the elevator halfway and there's an area to explore with a fire demon mini boss.... I think the area has a lot of stuff for upgrades... Definitely worth doing
Don't forget onion bro came down there is second elevator going up 1:40
I died a couple times trying to make that jump 😭😭
@@leroyrowe638git gud
@@leroyrowe638Are you acoustic and restarted?
@@leroyrowe638You have to rotate the camera first time to see where exactly you need to jump and then face your character that way while coming down
The influence Zanny has had on yt creators and their thumbnails has not gone unnoticed lmao
Bro I straight up thought it was a Zanny vid but it's just some elden ring newcomer ripping off his style.
@@valravnsshadow9422 same, literally looks just like a zanny vid lol, even the title
thought i clicked on a zanny video LMAO
Huh
The only bad thing about this video is that it ends.
W comment
W comment hahaha
Indeed a W comment
Kicking is when you press foward and attack at the same time, after you let go of the controll stick for a sec. it is usefull to break the stance of blocking enemys with shields and such.
Kicking would been better with any other input, i did it randomly n hated it XD
The kicking keybind is honestly the worst one, I always accidentally did it and it would ruin fights for me many times.
I want to see him fight all the dlc bosses lol
agreed, His too greedy, fighting with the slave knight Gael needs more patience it took me 10 minutes to beat that boss.
@@augustoventosa1949 I don't think Gael is the hardest. His fight is so engaging you don't feel the passage of time. sister friede however, punishes any greed aggressively.
@@wngmv Aggression takes her down well. She becomes more dangerous the more passive you are.
@@Do0mSl4yer95 in the 2nd and 3rd phase definitely. In the 1st absolutely not, only if you are over level 140+ and even so she does insane amounts of damage.
he'd be fucked against kalameet lmao
Stop attacking until you run out of stamina, you need to leave enough to be able to dodge away. Stop pressing forward while attacking, that's why you keep kicking the air for no reason. Look for some undead bone shards to upgrade how much health is regained with each estus flask. There is 1 in Undead Settlement, 1 in Farron Keep, 1 in Cathedral of the Deep, burn them at Firelink Shrine bonfire. If you want the game to be easier then get rid of the Uchi and use a 100% physical shield and a straight sword or spear. If you think boss runbacks in this game are bad then don't bother playing Dark Souls 2.
uchi is already easy game
yep, i love Dark souls 2 with ALL my heart, but those boss runbacks were VILE (specially Sir Alone, Dark Lurker and The Rotten were the worst for me)
Elden Ring is the easiest. Ds3 isn't bad, you just need to calm down and separate enemies instead of mindlessly walking into a crowd of them
Elden ring is by far the hardest souls game if you don’t use a broken build like bleed
Broken builds makes it the easiest
@@ShhImANightmaretbh i've played the entire soulsbourne series top to bottom elden ring really is the easiest, that doesn't mean its easy in general as a game
I mean come on its fromsoftware
Had more trouble with DS3 than Elden Ring & DS1, nothing compares to the nightmare that is DS2 though, traversing that map had me losing my mind.
@@ChiefinPack true
So refreshing 🤩 it brings happiness to my heart to see others in pain in DS :D
That's DS in the purest form: struggling, constantly on the verge of giving up, but then euphoric and rewarded for persistence and getting good.
DS3 and DS1 are the best imo
only because ds2 was so dang forced, miyazaki originally didnt want to make a dark souls 2
I will never understand why people WANT to be stressed out and have a pulse rate of 210 fighting unfair bosses, but I've never played DS or ER specifically BECAUSE I don't enjoy that feeling, as if I had 50 espressos and get all shaky. Bleh. I almost didn't buy Black Myth Wukong for the same reason - and I ended up finding several bosses in that very frustrating, but I did beat it multiple times and platinum it - BUT the developer's stated goal was for the difficulty level to be "sightly less than some DS games, but satisfyingly challenging at times" - which is 100% true in that I found challenge, but the sort where once you die a few times, you understand the boss mechanics on each one, when to dodge, what to look out for, repeat until you win - it seems DS has the same mindset behind it - die until you get good enough to beat it - but I feel as though if DS is even 10 or 20% harder, that is already going to guarantee I will hate it since I got VERY pissed off at one boss in particular in BMW that I - and a ton of other people - died to many many times. I feel BMW is riding that line where if it was 25% harder, it'd be too hard - 25% easer, it wouldn't be challenging ENOUGH - then again even with BMW there's a built-in thing where every enemy gets noticably stronger, more hp, hits harder, every NG+, to the point where by NG+9 or 10 EVERYTHING can one-shot you if you don't dodge EVERYTHING. BUT, I'm not that much of a masochist that I'd deliberately beat it that many times PUREly to transform it into a nearly impossible to win game. It's an option that is there I guess for DS lovers who want to be PUNISHED for f'ing up a dodge - which given you'd be one-shotted if you beat it enough times, is exactly what'd happen. SO. Here's my question, as a COMPlete outsider to DS - DOES it have ANY ability to get AROUND not being awesome at dodging / parrying 100% of the time - as in...can I level grind, upgrade things, and get stronger, enough to where there's SOME room for error? If not....sounds too stressful.
I love him just skipping over the Deacons entirely. The level of respect they deserve. 😂
you can't exactly skip deacons... because you can't enter irythill boreal of valley without the doll
They are a complete load of bullshit. Always keep a greatsword in the back pocket just for them, regardless of class.
@@andrewmarklowitz2728 did you actually watch the video? Lol
@ratboy555 I find the boss pretty good it's a test of Croud Control
Or if you are way more stronger than the Decons then it's just fun to destroy entire crouds of Decons lol
@@ratboy555 lmao quick step dagger easier. farron greatsword 2hL1 spam is fun. Deacons is the easiest boss.
I play with my palm wrist and chest because I'm paralyzed and ds3 is my favorite, ds1 and 2 are harder. If you want to add me I'll play through it with you
Ladies you're both right. Different skill sets are required for different games.
Wtf@@luisgutierrez8047
Super cool! Massive respect!
respect to you brother, if you play on PC i’d be down to coop
@@hunterlander thanks but I'm still on PS4 I haven't worked towards getting a PC and making a compatible controller yet
At the blacksmith you can reallocate your estus and get ride of the blue charges which are for magic, it'll give you more health charges
he also uses the uchigatana's weapon art, which does drain FP, so he probably has a few ashen flasks for that
i just dont use mana at all, like when i run out of it i switch to normal attacks and im still happy i dont have a mana estus 💀
You're kicking because you press forward and R1 at the same time. Kick is actually pretty useful against shielded enemies because it depletes way more of their poise than a normal hit would. Most of the time you can easily get in a critical hit after a kick on a shield.
You kick when you press to move forward and attack at the same time. It takes some getting used to moving first or attacking stationary. The kick is for when an enemy holds up a shield, it throws them into an animation that can get you a crit. If they look big or heavy, it probably wont work though
Ty
You’re telling me I can’t kick away the dragon slayer armor’s shield?
@itmejac6945 if u are holding a torch your kicks are actually strong so you can
@@ericwengkh lmfao wait really that’s hilarious
Don't know why they took the forward stick combos out of ER? Would of added even more variety to combat.
the moment he was complaining about the lack of bosses but then his next door was abyss watchers.
i knew he was beyond cooked
Hey flo, you have missed some upgrade materials for your estus. Youve also missed some other important things back at the undead settlement. But just take your time and enjoy this game man. Its amazing
You’ve got the perfect personality for this. I can almost never watch another person game but you make this incredibly entertaining. I hate Twitch but you’ve got my sub.
Don't ever stop making these videos, they are so entertaining. Your commentary is hilarious! 😂
i finally beat ds3 earlier this morning and what Ive learned is that honestly...... it only was a hard game when I tried to be too ballsy and was overconfident. I did a dex build/sellswords and (was my first time playing) I leveled up and honestly thought I was untouchable , until I met the right enemy. I died so many times to Champion Gundyr/the nameless king/ The twin princes/ and Lord of cinder. But, I only died to them because I didnt take my time and study their attacks. What an excellent game it was, on to elden ring now!
BTW go back to the beginning of the undead settlement when you reach the gate that two dogs come out of go the opposite way until you go through the Archway then talk to one of the corpses once they disappear go back to firelink and look around for them and talk to them the service he offers is related to an Ending and also to get more of it do you have to die multiple times
A couple more tips that you would miss go back to the elevator walk on the pressure plate to send it down the moment you step on it jump off and wait for the second one and go all the way up talk to the NPC on top of the tower then if you go back to the location where you would get hit by arrows you no longer get targeted pick up every item you see as one of them does power up your flask
Go back to the Castle and that room where the dogs and exploding barrels were and pick up the item on the Anvil it increases how many flasks you have unlike elden ring go back to firelink I'm guessing you've talked to the Buff man in firelink he can increase how many you have to power it up you have to go to a bonfire and click burn Undead shards or bones
Also after you talk to the NPC at the top of the tower when you ride the elevator down look for a ledge to drop on and just do everything from there
lol
You fumble the ball so much in this video it's hilarious 😂
I started playing this game recently and spent almost 3 hours straight playing the Abyss Watchers until I killed them. Keep trying and thank you for making these videos!
The weapons and drip you get afterward though🎉
I got stuck on the dancer for days, then changed to a heavy great shield that staggered his attacks, it's a game that needs the right equipment at the right place sometimes
Get ready for Pontiff
@@briansmith4342 pontiff is easy, there's 2 NPC for help
What build, level and equipment did you have? I did them second try, dragging it out because the boss and music was so cool. 😅
"This boss is easy" and the abyss watchers took that personally! 1000+ hrs in this game and its never boring to watch someone play through it the first time! Poor innocent lambs...
You can backstab this boss so easy. dont give up on this masterpeace of a game! Love your videos.
Another crazy thing about this game is the 2 huge secret areas. You get to one by knocking down a bridge and then climbing down it (so unbelievably easy to miss) and then to get to the other, you have to use a specific emote and wait a certain amount of time. It’s crazy
You need Bone Shards to upgrade the healing each flask use does. Other than that, hope ya like this game! Out of all the games you've tried this one was the hardest for me. (Excluding Lies of P, because I haven't played that yet.)
Edit: oh also! The kick happens when you press forward and attack at the same time. So just make sure you're not pressing both when you're fighting.
Wait how am I suppose to not hit both at the same time? Isn’t that how you fight?
@@KillingKarmatically when you're fighting you should either be holding forward and then press attack, or press attack while not moving. Moving forward and attacking at the exact same time will cause the kick.
I kinda wish there was an option to turn it off or something, because some people go through the game entirely without using it.
Everyone said lies of p was mega hard. Tbh I found it easier than any souls game. However 1 or 2 bosses nearly made me rage quit the game. It has one flaw though and that's the throwables being op against bosses
The difficulty is what makes the game so rewarding. idk how many times I stood up and cheered after killing a boss who's been beating me for hours.
I remember jumping with Joy after killing the Nameless King
i’m the happiest man on earth when I find a single bonfire
This is hilarious to me. DS3 was my first Souls/FS game. Curious to see how the rest of the game goes. Nameless King will be great to watch.
Same. It's been a while since I've gotten to see someone on the left side of "git gud."
I think we all remember when we, too, called foul and yelled at the game for being "janky" or "unfair" when it was just a matter of learning the games rules.
Odds are he wont find the nameless king
@@LG-gd7lo lol If he's playing without a guide, which seems reasonable to assume, I would say you are right.
@@LG-gd7lo I can almost hear the commentary talking about what bullshit it is that getting there is so hidden, and then the constant discussion of how hard the base enemies are and the dragon lol
@@LG-gd7loand what about midir lol
I love the Abyss Watchers fight, it’s so cool. But yeah you definitely need to explore every area, you missed a big fight at the top of the elevator in the previous area.
The Abyss watchers are pretty straight forward if you bait out the back stab!!
abyss watcher can be backstabbed. when he does his jump attack you can roll foward, get on his back n backstab it
Theres a estus upgrade ring somewhere in firelink shrine ;)
Theres also no shame if you just want to look up locations for estus upgrade materials. you'll need them
"am I underlevel for this area?" nope, just underlevel for the game 😔
Shame that you’ll miss out on some great DS3 moments by not playing DS1 first but I’m still hyped as hell to see how badly this goes
It works both ways IMO. I also played 3 before one but DS3 has so many references to Dark Souls 1 that I still often went like "Ahh I remember this" or "Ahh so that's how it was like at first".
@@valentinvas6454 I don’t know, man, the surprise and context are just gone at that point. You’d just go “oooh, so that’s what that was all about”, instead of the “holy shit, this is the greatest thing in the world” like you would if you played DS1 first
I thought Dark Souls III was hard, then I played The Surge
Have you considered maybe trying the exile greatsword? It’s not as fast, sure, but you seem to like tanking damage so a greatsword would give you some hyper armor for your attacks. It also has a cool WA and sometimes all you need is a vibe change. Love your content.
Don’t go Hollow, you can do this! ❤
Good lord that brings back memories, that sword was pure pvp nightmare with upwards of 1300+ dmg on a R1+WA. PvE melts just as fast it's such a crazy STR weapon.
killing the tree is a great idea for the kiln. i honestly love the greatswords you can get from boss souls
Brother. Your flasks are +1 im almost certain you can upgrade them more by this stage
Yeah, you can have it at +3 by this stage.
Who’s gonna tell him about the nameless king… cuz I wont
also, the kick imput is walk forwards and light attack, what it does is basically breaks the guard of enemies with shields
I thought dark souls was easy, and then I played Elden ring.
Respect I played early game lord of the fallen and raged and souls is harder plan to get monster hunter world on steam and it’s supposedly easier but still decently challenging
Darksouls 3 was the first souls game I played , and the abyss watchers almost made me quit the game, but when I was about to give up and uninstall it I tried a little more and managed to do it.
Since then I've been in love with souls games, I played the entire ds3, elden ring, bloodborne and I have sekiro and ds1 ready to go.
You beat ‘Lies of P’, you’ve got this keep going. Only thing I’d say is that it looks like you’re doing a challenge run, by not using everything the game gives you.
Anyway great video, you’ll soon get to 100k. 👍
It’s not a choice though. The challenge presented itself 😂
Deserve more subs you’re mad funny and the videos are quality keep it up man
After putting in hundreds of hours into DS1, DS2 & Bloodborne. I found DS3 pretty easy, except for bosses like Nameless King and Dankeater Midir. I always had to summon players to help me with those guys. I haven't played Elden Ring yet though.
I just love how bro was saying Abyss Watchers was gonna be easy then exits the game
so PAINFUL to watch
It's always part of the fun about DS games is seeing how other people do vs the various bosses.
For me personally this boss was a first try. I don't know if I was over leveled or not but I managed to beat him first attempt being extremely patient.
Personally Elden ring gave me more trouble than dark souls 3
Yes me too
Yeah I don't know what this dude is talking about. He said that he heard that lies of P was harder then d3? Lies of P is probably the easiest game in that genre...
Another crabs treasure is harder
Honestly I gotta say without TH-cam or google, elden is way harder hands down, but I think most of the boss fights are around the same difficulty, I personally just favor dark souls because of its tight spaces and layered aesthetic. Could just be my nostalgia though cause it was my first souls game
This has to be 🧢
so nice to see a blind run so much later! so many good memories thank you.
DS3 is my favorite souls game. Art design, gameplay, lore. Just does it for me. First play through was so much fun. So was the 50th.
I’ve been replaying DS3 for the first time since Elden Ring and it’s really nice during boss fights having enough time to drink again.
3:34 "Another bonfire yo this games treating me good right now"
*in front of the swamp of assclappery*
Honestly, thought this was a Zanny video by the thumbnail
Katanas are just beginning of the game weapons. You need the Flamberge, the Wolf Sword, or an Ax as a mid-game weapon. Level up that stamina too. That is what allows you to use heavier armor as well.
"After the first attempt, the bosses get harder" - truer words have never been spoken!
I can definitely see the Bloodborne levels of aggression in your play style. Also, the kick is when you tap forward and attack at the same time; you probably worked that out already though.
Dark souls 3 was my first souls game I ever played... It was a nightmare trying to play through it but also one of the best games I've experienced once all was said and done
for me its like
1 Bloodborne
2 Dark Souls 3
3 Elden Ring (without mimic)
4 Dark Souls 1
5 Code Vein
6 Dark Souls 2
Can’t even lie, watching him get absolutely humbled by the abyss watchers was extremely cathartic
I relate to the random air kicks so bad! It happens when you push the joystick down and flick up so it always accidentally happens
This video just makes me feel great about myself knowing I could handle this fight within ten tries my first play through
I love how you said he doesn’t get staggered, then immediately realized afterwards that he does get staggered like four separate times 😂
The crystal sages are a pain, same with the abyss watchers.
It's a bit late now, but when the sage clones himself, the real one will cast purple magic.
in Ds3 panic rolling is a death sentence I feel like ER was a little more lenient on that lol. When I saw the Dark knights behind you I cackled bc I knew exactly what was gonna happen 🤣. Bro you're killing me with that kick, I've never seen someone Struggle with that so hard 🤣
ER lets you panic roll for free.
Elden Ring baby's first soulsborn
Astora Greatsword users when they hear people say DS3 is really punishing:
😂😆🤣
When he said give a boss and opened the doors, I was like “Yup, regrets”
The "I'm always lost, and don't know where I'm supposed to be" is something that hits me on all Souls Games and I swear them off. I'm hoping Elden Ring (which currently is better) helps.
You can do this! I struggled on the abyss watchers myself and I'm now on journey 3.
It's amazing that someone can play Elden Ring, Bloodborne, and Lies of P and think that bum-rushing and panic rolling is the solution lmao
enters abyss watchers fight: "don't tell me i gotta fight two" famous last word xD
Also, you kick by pressing foward and the light attack at the same time. If you are already holding foward when you attack, or is not moving, you'll attack, but if you press foward and L1(or whatever is your light attack button) u'll kick. Believe be, is harder to do when you want than when you don't want.
btw, it's used to kick enemies shield, so you break their instance.
Elden ring was an entry level game for sure.
Chanting "level up your vigor" in my head for the longest time.
You had me astma laughing at "his sword just lit up".
“Get up faster!!” “This is urgent damn!” 😂 Just beat abyss watchers and i felt that so hard.
Dark pyromancer build is pretty dope, I literally had a win streak of 12 in 1v1's. Rocked the onyx blade to complement the build.
it was so cool how your friend helped you at this time 18:41
Lol i see comments all over the place. Some people say ER is the hardest, some say DS3, 2, Demon souls...i think it really comes down to personal experience and build..i had a much easier time in DS3 than ER. BUT, i went to DS3 right after beating ER.. so i think my momentum carried over. I burned thru DS3 in 3 days..bosses seemed easier to read imo, as someone who played them back to back..but like i said, i think its based a lot in circumstance.
"Oh its a greatsword I'm not gonna use that" See, that's why you're struggling.
I give you props for going into the bosses with no summons
Watching you play reminds me of the first times I played this game. Such painful memories lmao
Elden Ring was so fun because i suffered so much in Dark Souls. Enemies except a couple bosses never got me, my greatest enemy was always gravity and falling off cliffs.
Abyss Watchers fight had me SHOOK back in the day. That sh*t as a casual (albeit a persistent casual that watches TH-cam tips) was ROUGH
Imagine your first Souls game you ever played being DS3. I learned and got good on this game which made Bloodborne and Elden Ring really easy to play.
You want to have easy time ? Either grab straight sword and shield or grab the boss weapon from vordt ( Big mace with icing on it. ) Game is a cakewalk with either of those options. Plus I from my experience having something ranged to pull enemies is very handy and also not running like headless chicken and not letting yourself to get surrounded / flanked also helps a lot.
This reminded me of a line from Happy Souls: "Is this.. Too easy for you?"
Relatable 😂 Keep going, and don't get discouraged.
Abyss Watchers are fun. If you stop there, you'll be missing out on bosses who are wayyy more fun to play with 😊
Funny to see everyone's experience with this fight. As its considered one of the more easy fights by most people
You gotta fight that tree. It gives you an item that turns boss souls into weapons. Just target the bubbles.
I just like how he tried to challenge the abyss watchersinitially only to take back is words.
Abyss watchers being hard for someone new to DS3 makes sense, keep it up!
I remember putting down DS3 for a long time when I was at the Abyss Watchers Boss Fight too!!
😂😂 it really is a rite of passage for the entire game.
3:00 - tbf you can just open door behind him (animation makes you invulnerable to damage), lit the bonfire thats outside and just cheese this guy on the doorway since he cant leave the building
Seeing the Ashen Estus flask taking up a charge in the background. Oh the pain ;)
"why am i kicking!?" Oh you poor sweet summer child
