Also, I just have to give massive props to CB. The only man in the game that makes these beginner guides, build guides and walkthroughs as if he’s talking to someone who’s brand new to gaming. I went from non gamer to Plat Sekiro in 70 hours because of this dude.
Wonder if Cowboy will play Blasphemous 2 at some point. With all the solid games that have been releasing one after the other I feel like it’s kinda flown under the radar a bit.
Man, @FightinCowboy you have helped me since Darksoul and almost every game you’ve made a video for since. I want to say thank you for all the work you put into your videos and content. The way you explain pros and cons, gameplay mechanics and anything else that someone would need to know about any soulsbourne game.. you’re the G.O.A.T buddy. Thank you for everything.
cowboy you're amazing. you're my go to, been following you since forever. Ds2, Ds1, Ds3, Bloodborne, sekiro, Sotfs, elden ring, Rubicon, nioh everything played everything following your guides. Finally got my hands on lotf can't wait. Keep up the grind. You're no doubt my top 3 💪🏿💪🏿
He got early access along with a lot of other creators. He’s been playing for a while. They just aren’t allowed to release videos until the company gives them the green light, which is usually right before the game comes out
@@plain_simple_garak for someone who has literally made a career out of making content like this, especially for souls like games, weeks is plenty enough time to put out a guide video
I haven’t seen Cowboy since about June. Just been goofing around with some easy games. LotF drops and I finally throw it in, open YT and here he is. It’s like YT knew I needed him.
Watched all of his playthroughs that have been uploaded thus far. Certainly a challenging game no doubt. The enemies just swarm and creep up on you out of nowhere. Getting through those first initial areas with low health and poor equipment looks rage inducing but once he got adequately leveled up and improved his equipment, the fun factor seemed to go up. I love these games and watching Cowboy progress through it, I think a lot of Souls fans are going to love it. Looking forward to playing this one. Thanks for all the work you put into these videos and walkthroughs.
Well cowboy, you've done it again. Convinced me to get another game that I probably wouldn't have dared without knowing you're gonna able to guide me through it
The area where you run to the blacksmith was my goto area to farm. Pop Umbral and do a circuit including the platform with the knight on it and it's possible to get around 8000 vigour per run with the boost ring. It served me well, right up to end game.
I didn't even notice that they had a stagger gage. Close to halfway through the game decided to watch this and what do you know actually came out with useful information. You generally always make great informative videos for souls likes, much appreciated. Edit: Don't buy the Pilgrim Key. I don't want to spoil anything myself I will just say you will get it later on in the game. Learn from my mistakes because there's enemies behind those doors that will absolutely demolish you lol. It's basically an item that gets you into a late game area. Hope that wasn't too much of a spoiler just trying to help you save your vigor.
The day that some releases a game or patch where your weapons and sheaths don’t clip through your character’s capes will be the day we truely have a next-gen souls-like.
This man has already beat the game straight machine 😢😮 love the content though won’t be watching anymore play truth until I get the game but these guides are great and informative
I just got this game and didn’t understand most of it even as a old dark souls player and this helped so much, I’m excited for this game it looks great
Nice video cowboy. I just got home from a business trip. Preordered the game before and can finally play this game now. The guide is really helpful to start! Thank you.
One thing Cowboy didn't mention is the game has motion momentum. So if you full send towards a ledge and jump to get to another ledge, you'll probably stumble off the other side if the platform is narrow enough.
Bro you don’t understand how major this video has helped me out!! Areas where I’m like there’s no fucking way I can beat this just made it so much easier now lmao. Thank you!
Thank you for this. You gave me some tips I didn't know and also revealed how to follow maps. I'm pretty stuck on wich zones I have to visit and in which order and at the moment I'm figuring it out just by how strong enemies are there. Great job and keep up the good work.
If anyone is trying to get the smithy and have come to the door covered in roots and it has an Umbral entity blocking it there’s 3 1 is on the platform below- follow the big spine bridge down 2 on the spot CB was standing to let the spike head run off the platform 3 it to the right and up of the door.
The zombies in umbrel are scared of the lamp if u shine it at them they will cover their face and shy away slowly btw keep up the awesome content cowboy!!
Awesome as this is my first full souls-like experience that my friend Jacob gifted me on digital for my birthday this month on Xbox I really think this should help
I’m not sure why but I’ve stopped enjoying playing souls games. Has anyone else ever experienced this ? I wish I knew why. Thanks for this guide as always 🤠
Still not enjoying the souls game anymore? Must be a seasoned vet. I’m just now barely getting into it and dipped my toes with lords of the fallen and am absolutely loving it. Makes me want to start from the beginning skipping demon souls lol trying to figure out if after I get through with LotF if I wanna start from the beginning or just jump onto Elden ring.
Omg I am so dumb. I was like "Why is cowboy pumping out videos already?" Turns out the release date I googled was FOR THE FIRST GAME FML.. time to jump in!!
I jumped back in to play through this game again since all the updates changes and new quest and modifiers. I've only played through the game once at release decided to do a holy mage playthrough.
Thanks for the tips/guide @FightinCowboy, as always! Kind of crazy that they made the blacksmith missable? Seems like a pretty damn critical NPC to leave tucked away like this, I don't think I would have found her for a long time if it weren't for your video! I would have just assumed that the main story path would have me come across her in a way that was very noticeable, so I'm glad I just happened to check this out before finishing Pilgrim's Perch.
I heard her hitting the anvil and knew she was below me, but I I didn't go down to free her because I was on my way to the boss. Went back and got her though. You can certainly hear her if you are paying attention.
Honestly I was waiting for your interpretation of it before I really went for it and was happy with your take my friend. Picked it up myself and I'm having a real good time. I do have a gripe but other than that one thing it's a solid experience that I recommend people check out. Very Dark souls esq obviously but in a good way. Cheers
Remember the old trick if you’re stuck on a boss or discover a boss arena and you don’t wanna fight the boss for whatever reason: just quit to the menu. This is useful if you wanna pick up your vigor real quick in the boss arena then go elsewhere
Right now, the shrimp can be bought from that shrine(29:36), but be careful!! Sometimes the purchase will glitch and give u -1 shrimp. Yes, it TAKES one sometimes. It works, but be very cautious of this
This is a great guide, I just started playing and the game is really cool. Excellent information and definitely informative compared to souls mechanics. Great job
Always look forward to your vids!!! I always come here to get the scoop 1st on New games like this. I can not wait to play in a few hrs!! thanks COWBOY for the heads up on things!!!!!
19:28 can anyone tell me how to do that on PC controls? Been playing ages and tried lots of controls but I cannot move and enemy or move an enemy's soul.
Can someone explain why my physical dmg weapon does the same amount of damage before and after a bleed procs on an enemy? I apply a bleed and then use the rejects blade and the bleed's bonus physical dmg effect doesn't seem to work as described..
Also, I just have to give massive props to CB. The only man in the game that makes these beginner guides, build guides and walkthroughs as if he’s talking to someone who’s brand new to gaming. I went from non gamer to Plat Sekiro in 70 hours because of this dude.
Me too lol
Yeah, I gotta kill Demon of Hatred and Isshin the Sword Saint for my first playthrough.
I enjoy his voice, the ign begginers guide sounds like its narrated by spongebob
The man with the PhD in Soulslikes. Thanks for the guide and especially for explaining the stat caps at the beginning.
Man. I can’t get over that armor set. Looking like the Penitent One. It. Is. So. Badass.
Even the sword looks like the Mea Culpa
Wonder if Cowboy will play Blasphemous 2 at some point. With all the solid games that have been releasing one after the other I feel like it’s kinda flown under the radar a bit.
CB is the reason why I'm more interested in this game now. Had to subscribe to his channel.
Man, @FightinCowboy you have helped me since Darksoul and almost every game you’ve made a video for since. I want to say thank you for all the work you put into your videos and content. The way you explain pros and cons, gameplay mechanics and anything else that someone would need to know about any soulsbourne game.. you’re the G.O.A.T buddy.

Been with him since dark souls 3 and blood borne my man. He is good.

Your not human. The game is just out and already we have beginner guides
😂

He's had it for weeks dude lol
@@plain_simple_garak for someone who has literally made a career out of making content like this, especially for souls like games, weeks is plenty enough time to put out a guide video
It comes out tomorrow, Friday 13th October 2023, not today.

As someone who’s playing the game there is no fun factor it’s just mob after mob after mob
This game LOOKS so good, graphically. I’m so hyped.
You need like a 4080 or a 4090 plus a super CPU to run it like this though.
@@Nimootyup mines running like absolute buns 😂
Been following since Elden Ring, love these vids/build guides from you.
Well cowboy, you've done it again. Convinced me to get another game that I probably wouldn't have dared without knowing you're gonna able to guide me through it
Finally someone who explains it all in one video. It was very helpful, thanks so much ❤️🙏

Circling back around to this game now and this is super helpful. Clear and quick.
Thanks for the tips and tricks no spoilers & Bro the Blasphemous looking armor set is amazing. 🔥
It's crazy how I was hoping for this type of armour!
This man has already beat the game straight machine 😢😮 love the content though won’t be watching anymore play truth until I get the game but these guides are great and informative
You have the best voice for commentaries, bro lol. Always enjoy the guides! Can't wait to play this tomorrow!
Don’t let this go to your head, you are very good at explaining this game to us.
I really love your guides. I love how you break everything down and explain it in detail because a lot of this stuff I had no clue about.
Im starting to play this game today and this tutorial helped a lot to understand the mechanics of this soul style game! Many thanks!
I just got this game and didn’t understand most of it even as a old dark souls player and this helped so much, I’m excited for this game it looks great
Nice video cowboy. I just got home from a business trip. Preordered the game before and can finally play this game now. The guide is really helpful to start! Thank you.
Loving these videos, excited to play in a few hours.
Hell yeah!!
How’s it going I’m curious?
I never thought of soul flaying enemies off cliffs. You’re my hero 👍

Just Stop Running mid air and you land in noe spot and wont move :)
@@Uther1 yup
@@Uther1 Yeah noticed that too after playing. Has the Dark Souls 2 style run and jump mechanics.
THANK YOU! New to the game but super hooked and didn’t understand much lol
Did not know about the lamp being able to suck up souls (vigor), huge convenience you just made me aware of, I was physically running over everything.
Bro you don’t understand how major this video has helped me out!! Areas where I’m like there’s no fucking way I can beat this just made it so much easier now lmao. Thank you!
There’s Brady and then there’s FightinCowboy ! Thank you sir
only youtuber i trust with souls like games 🙏🏽 Cowboy the goat
Thank you for this. You gave me some tips I didn't know and also revealed how to follow maps. I'm pretty stuck on wich zones I have to visit and in which order and at the moment I'm figuring it out just by how strong enemies are there. Great job and keep up the good work.
If anyone is trying to get the smithy and have come to the door covered in roots and it has an Umbral entity blocking it there’s 3
1 is on the platform below- follow the big spine bridge down
2 on the spot CB was standing to let the spike head run off the platform
3 it to the right and up of the door.
The zombies in umbrel are scared of the lamp if u shine it at them they will cover their face and shy away slowly btw keep up the awesome content cowboy!!
They will attack you from behind, however
I have found this the most insightful beginners guide out there, thanks for the video, great help
3 more hours to go!! I'm ready, anybody else?
Wow why would they make the blacksmith almost a secret to find? Glad you made this guide to find something so essential.
Damn, the Penitent One is a beast.
Awesome as this is my first full souls-like experience that my friend Jacob gifted me on digital for my birthday this month on Xbox I really think this should help
Am I settling down with a cup of tea & a piece of cake to watch this....yes I am
Just wanted to say thanks alot this is a great help..wouldn't have gotten thru elden ring without you
Cowboy! Thanks for all you do bro! When I saw you on the armored core official stream I was super stoked for you. Just wanted to say thanks again
Thanks for the guide - I only just started on LOTF and loving it.

I'm glad you enjoy this game. I've been playing it and have been really impressed. Many things in it speak directly to me. I don't get all the hate.
I'm so excited to play this game , just upgraded my RAM for playing it smoothly on high resolution
Cowboy is kinda legend in soulslike top guides, Thanks!

Cowboy my dude for anything souls like. The king of souls….. cowboy!
Radiance and Inferno also increase your MP when you using Spells
Whats MP?

So excited to finally get to lay tommorow, so so excited about this game. Keep it up cowboy!
This game is deep, looks really good gonna be playing soon
Such a good game, even better for the beginners tuition video ....thanks Cowboy.
Oh my. Cowboy’s definition of a “beginner” is much different than mine 😅
Edit. Great guide nevertheless. Hats off.
This is a great guide, I just started playing and the game is really cool. Excellent information and definitely informative compared to souls mechanics. Great job
Good looks cowboy here we go on another amazing journey
3HRS TO GO! THANKS UNCLE COWBOY!!!
8:42 what is the left bumper and right trigger
This was by far the best, most helpful tutorial for a game iv ever watched. Thank you 🙏🏼
Perfect timing! You're a legend!
Always look forward to your vids!!! I always come here to get the scoop 1st on New games like this. I can not wait to play in a few hrs!! thanks COWBOY for the heads up on things!!!!!
Thank you for the info cowboy. You’re the best. 🙏🙏🙏
19:28 can anyone tell me how to do that on PC controls? Been playing ages and tried lots of controls but I cannot move and enemy or move an enemy's soul.
Another wonderful guide as always
Ty again bro, going to start this game today
you’re amazing, thanks so much cowboy!
Can someone explain why my physical dmg weapon does the same amount of damage before and after a bleed procs on an enemy? I apply a bleed and then use the rejects blade and the bleed's bonus physical dmg effect doesn't seem to work as described..
yeah I think he got that one wrong I'm pretty sure bleed just procs a % of the enemies hp as damage
I love that you love this game. I can’t wait to suffer.
From sekiro to Elden ring .. I’m here bro .. screw it ima try it out ! Been abusing albunarics for the longest now
Great vid as always cowboy✌🏽
Reminds me of Pyramid head from Silent Hill. I effing love this game so far.
Hey, thanks once again!! Great guide!
Why pick up souls manually?
Weird mechanic.
If its a soulslike - i need cowboy’s opinion and walkthrough. Only guy who isn’t a jabroni with these
thank you man this was a great video! You should upload some boss tutorials
Dude I'm so fucking stoked to play this game tomorrow! Thanks for this video!!!!!
Cowboy started from WTF it's going on, and as always ended up being true God who knows every game mechanic :)
Cant wait for the walkthrough good job mate
Have have gotten all the away around after cleaning the second tower. What part do you show on from then?
Great guide, thank you.
You just got mentioned in CB’s new official trailer for the game!!!
Well done
Helpful video. Anyone ever tell you that you and Itilian Sparticus sound similar over these recorded videos?
What class is Overall the best to Start ? No matter About personal preference just What is the best ?
There isn't
Just downloaded Lies of P haven’t played it yet and now I see this game. Can’t decide what to play first.
what does the hand symbol under the vigor bar in the inventory screen mean?
will the NG+ level resets or carry your level on NG+ like Elder ring?
Who else watched this whilst waiting for the countdown at midnight
