It's still uncomfortable to look at him every time you pass through firelink shrine. Kaathe was much worse though, he shows up in pure darkness as soon as you kill the 4 kings
Oddly enough, anyone who enjoys difficult games will tell you the souls games are really not hard games. Only punishing those who refuse to learn. Now Cupheads tutorial jump, holy shit is that a hard fucking game.
Ymfah is one terrifying creature, able to beat games in ways that make the devs scared of what he will roll their game with next, and is committed as all hell to any challenge, no matter how long it takes to adhere to it when its “impossible” to progress
@@Nerbit13098For Elden Ring most people tend to skip a lot of content and only do the "main story" or remembrance bosses for a recorded run or else every playthrough would take forever just from the sheer amount of them tucked away in every corner of the map.
@@jchart Lot of side bosses are either just reused enemies or generally not that interesting to watch anyway, limiting bosses is better for viewers too imo.
my first darksouls 2 playthrough i did a have to parry run, where i wasn't allowed to kill a boss until i successfully parried them (or atleast got the I frames on an attack like fore smelter demon) the only one i never got was the nameless king.
I like how you show your mistakes and deaths instead of just editing them out of both the video and the script. It incorporates some hilarious moments as well as how genuine you are and not just showing a perfect run. This applies to your other videos as well💜
I remember doing a DS1 challenge that I called “The Unga Bunga Run.” It was basically a no armor (except for cool hats), clubs only run. It was actually pretty fun.
Next challenge, can you beat Dark Souls 2 by killing all the enemies? This means you have to kill every enemy until they stop respawning. No bone fire ascensions can be used. You cannot fight the boss in the area until everything is forever dead. This is more time consuming than anything else, so it is testing out your knowledge of the game as some enemies are hidden and your sanity.
@@Sletchman Sure, if it is boring for the player then I won't suggest it. Like the immolation run only in Dark Souls 2 is very boring and takes forever but as shown can still be a good video. At least this challenge (which it is as some areas themselves are hard if you don't run past everyone) you can use whatever you want so long as you clear the area. The idea is just a unique idea that can only be done in DS2 since the other two games as soon as you teleport the enemies respawn.
Fun fact: If you do the DLC with Artorias( no clue how to write his name) first Sif will recognize you(you rescue him in the DLC) if you fight him back in the Main Area and will behave different. At that point he fights you to protect you from the same faith as his former master which makes it pretty sad
Yes! I loved your fallout content, but I love you branching out into other games even more! The MGS and Dark Souls videos are currently your most memorable videos I’ve watched, and I’d love to see videos on a lot of FromSoft games, and any other games that’ll fit this format!
I’m so glad you are playing Dark Souls Nerbit. This just gives you so many options for your content. Heck, I’ve already got your entire playlist saved to fall asleep to at night.
I loved doing runs like this back in the day. I did a bunch of runs where I just used the gear and only the gear you get with each starting class, although I obtained and used the different spells for the respective spellcasters
I did this as my first ever run of dark souls. It was amazingly fun and I loved every second of it. I would give almost anything to play the game for the first time again.
The first time through was truly a magical experience, I was fortunate enough to do a lot of it with a friend as well for some hilariously fun jolly cooperation
YES! This couldn't have come at a better time for me. I've been working through your videos currently and am also in the midst of a dark souls obsession. Hope you start doing more souls stuff!
Honestly the club is a really solid weapon in this game, but you've always got to choose a challenge that fits your skill level and fun level. I'm glad you enjoyed and can not wait for the soul level one fists only run >:3
Haha yeah. It's like one of the best scaling and movements for one hand str weapons. Hope I live to see the day where he uploads a broken str sword run
I had an idea for a run. Can you beat Fallout 4 as Alex Mercer? Requirements: * Unarmed build with Explosives as a secondary combat method. * Your diet is exclusively blood packs and dead things that were killed recently. That includes people. Take the Cannibal perk. * Wear a hoodie or a leather jacket most of the time, but clothing taken from someone you ate is acceptable. * Get the Deathclaw Gauntlet as soon as possible. Use it often. * RadAway is the only chem you’re allowed to use. * You hate mad scientists with a burning passion. The Institute must die. * If the Brotherhood finds out that you’re a pre-war experimental weapon, killing you will be their top priority. Do yourself a favor and kill them first. * The Railroad is able to see the humanity in people who aren’t human. Not being human yourself, you appreciate that. They get to live. * You have no social skills. Be rude often. * Sex and romance are not for you. Avoid them. * Piper reminds you of your sister, Dana. Do something nice for her.
Always cool to see new games on the channel, speaking of new games I don't know if you've ever played Dead Rising but an idea for them could be beating the first one with only guns
I respect your effort and humility by doing this challenge and linking your fellow DS content creators my man. I desire nothing less than success and happiness to you.
Skyrim Minecraft Challenge; you must only use items you craft yourself; No looting, No purchasing, not even materials; you have to gather those yourself. You can loot the pickaxe, fishing rod, and woodcutter's axe you need to get started, but everything else you use for combat MUST be crafted by you, with materials you gathered yourself. The only horse you're allowed to use is the dwemer automoton, as that's the only one you can craft. No fast Travel. You must construct a fully functioning house and only use that one for your home, and optionally, add all crafting stations. Then you must complete the main quest with only weapons and armor you crafted yourself from materials you mined/gathered yourself. Any gold you need to complete these goals, like buying the plot of land for the house, must be purchased in true minecraft fashion; with emeralds. Mine them, refine them, sell them without making jewelry. Alternatively, you can sell other things you've made, as long as you do not purchase any gear, potions, food, or materials, but you have to keep all septims as emeralds untill you have to spend them, spending them all into emeralds at, say, kahjiit traders, or general goods stores. You MAY purchase training, but again, only with emeralds you mine. Alternatively, you can nix the purchasing training all together for extra challenge, or mine and smelt gold bars instead of emeralds for less challenge.
A Nerbit video? On one of my favourite games in my favourite series? Oh hell yeah, bring it on, I've been craving more souls challenge runs in my life Also, for anyone else wanting to do the club only run, you can make Nito even easier by getting the occult club from the same room you can get Havel's armour, and then un-ascending said club to get an easy +5 divine club. Considering skeletons are weak to blunt/strike and divine/holy damage, and it also makes them not respawn, it makes an already pretty easy boss even easier.
I love this video, this is legit how I ran through Dark Souls my first time ever playing. Started deprived cause I wanted a challenge and what got me was that the heavy attack launched you forward. Literally got to O&S with just the club and then decided to dawn the glorious Smough armor and his hammer. Playing through DS1 with no spoilers was the best experience I had in a souls game. Got too many spoilers with Elden Ring since I’m always on TH-cam, but I’m looking forward to starting DS3 since I know nothing about it other than the DS1 characters are in it lol thanks for the nostalgia moment, def subbing and love the video!!!
Love this video! Honestly, I much more enjoy watching somebody around my skill level having fun with a challenge run that I could see myself doing too, rather than somebody torturing themselves for the entertainment of the viewers
Nerbit, I already followed two of the three you mentioned but you are fantastic for shouting out. Community solidarity is nice. I would’ve subscribed then to you if I hadn’t already
I got addicted to this game last week and on my first ever run I beat the entire game with just a club. This is gonna be incredible, please do more dark souls videos!
As both a Bethesda and FromSoft fan, it's great seeing my favourite YT people interact and mention each other. Even seeing youtubers who make videos on several genres interact with the more niche comunities (CallMeKevin and SpiffingBrit recently playing Zomboid with AA, Nurse, Lime and the rest, for example). It makes me feel closer to my fav creators knowing they like the same people and games I do.
I'm not even convinced ymfah's videos should be considered challenge videos, they're more works of art that show case the beauty that's the collision between "WTF? How was that coded?" and "WTF? How did someone even find that out??"
Hey nerbit, glad to see a ds1 challenge run! As a long standing datk souls lover, I'd love to answer on of the questions you had about the stray demon. The most common strategy for stray is just to use a weapon with bleed or to use sorcery. He's super bad against bleed and a good bleed weapon can take him out Instantly! Well, not instantly, but pretty easily. I recommend the flamburge for people who like great swords, or the bandits knife for people who just like fast damage.
NO WAY!!! I’ve loved ur vids since 3k subs, and have always hoped for Dark Souls challenges as the souls series is my favorite game series. Thank you so much Nerbit! Keep up the insanely good vids!!!
My first play through of Dark Souls 2 was the massive club you get at the start of the game and i never unequipped it , this video speaks to me on so many levels. Great video and was a lovely surprise to see pop up in my sub box!
I just watched a vid other night where Joov mentioned you being great with these types of videos. Obviously he’s right. I love when channels I am subbed to acknowledge each other like it’s creating a universe where all you do together is canon. Lol cheers!
Oh, now you just gave me an idea... "Can You Beat Fallout 76...as Mount Rushmore?", featuring Nerbit, ManyATrueNerd, Joov, and (if you can persuade him) MittenSquad as the four faces.
I actually primarily used the Club in my DS2 playthrough. It's got its weaknesses (namely reach), but it carried me the whole game. I planned on using it in 3 as well, until I realized that all three games have the Reinforced Club, which is strictly superior in every way (except durability, but at no point in any of my runs did it ever break). I recently did a run of 3 with the Great Club, which as you imply at the beginning of the video, kicks absolute ass. So I was very excited to see this video, both because I love Clubs in these games, and because I'm super happy to see you playing them.
What a happy coincidence, I just started a Great Club character called Unga Bunga and I see this amazing video pop up. Love to see you branching into the Souls franchise.
I always wondered in the back of my head if you would enter into the world of DS challenge runs. Your style of challenge run video editing fits DS well.
I would love more Dark Souls Challenge runs. One kind of challenge run I haven't seen a lot of recently is the Classy run. The idea is this, you pick any class and must start with the pendant gift. From then on the entire run must use only your starting equipment and you're not allowed to unequip anything. Rings and attuned spells are changeable and the less restrictive version of the challenge also allows leveling
Seriously, I love that you're expanding. And yes to a Mortal Kombat game once, hah. I also have a challenge, if you're curious and would like to accept it: Similar to your cannibal run. How about a Vampire run in Fallout 3, where you Cosplay as Blade and steal the Shish Kebab as your only weapon. (You are allowed to repair it.)
With the Bed of Chaos, literally no one will fault you for fighting it in that way. It's practically an intended feature as the 'normal' way of leaving the arena is dying and they clearly made the roots not respawn for a reason. In fact the most common way I see people do it anymore is just to lob firebombs from the start of the room into the roots then rush the actual larva so seeing someone actually go for the roots was somewhat refreshing in itself.
I didn't know that I needed Nerbit Dark Souls, but your pacing and video style fits the genre so well I hope you keep making these style videos and that others enjoy them as much as I do!
1:11 also Plateau peak, press continue, and gamersweekend to name a few for dark souls. ...yeah, my relax time is dark souls/Elden Ring challenge runs. got more for just elden ring. anyway, this is going to be interestiiing. glad to see this, Nerbit. 19:13 slow is such a relative word in this series. 19:53 four kings before pinwheel and rekindling? huh. 20:31 and it was pointed out. gotcha. 28:40 aww... no...
I'd love to see you tackle the rest of the Souls franchise, ESPECIALLY Elden Ring since it's my favorite Fromsoft game (and the first one I've completed...3 or 4 times)
I’ve done this run, it was challlengimg but I loved it. I only allowed myself the club and the woodplank shield, which meant I didn’t allow myself to use anything else, except those two weapons. This included summons as well. It’s nice to see though that everyone is coming up with unique ways to beat the game still.
Pretty good vid, and I have a suggestion for a challenge run: Can you beat Fallout New Vegas (or 3, either is good) by only moonwalking? Rules: You can walk backwards (except leaving doc mitchel's house/ entering + exciting buildings) Any weapons are allowed Can only wear a suit and fedora No fast travel (because you could secretly not moonwalk)
Love the backlogs shout-out and the Dark soul content Fun tip, target shield gives you longer parry window. You probably already know this but just in case you don't.
I love how you are branching out into the Souls games, as someone who's favorite game of all time is Bloodborne, I'm hoping to see that fairly soon as well, maybe a Threaded Cane only run, or maybe a Madman run (basically with the exception of blood vials, you can only use weapons, armour, and items with "mad" in it's descriptive text). Another idea maybe is a Nioh run, if you've ever gone through and like the game. Seeing as you do character based runs, and in the game of Nioh you deal with mystical elements, and the protagonist is Irish, I figured there's no better way to go about it, then trying to beat Nioh as Cú Chulainn.

The fact that he had the Baldor side sword drop naturally for him is insane since it has a 1 percent drop rate. Blessed run
Blessed with the swag sword that he will never use. Amazing.
@@Keeneye47_Wolfkeen I always get the baller swag sword on characters that will never be using it. Amazing indeed.
Just started a dagger only run and that shit dropped from the second balder knight I killed. RNG is a fickle thing.
Did a swag sword run and farmed for a few hours for it. Soon as I saw it I knew I would see this comment
I was about to comment on him getting the Baldur swag sword
I spent ages farming for that
A new challenger enters the arena! Welcome to the Souls family
Thanks man, I'll never be as crazy as you guys but it was fun to just play one of my favourite games
A Souls video? From Nerbit? While I don't have anything else to watch? What did I do to deserve such a gift :3
Thank you Nerbit!
You're Welcome and I hope you enjoy :)
I second this notion! As a avid souls player it'd be amazing to see Nerbit playing more souls games.

I like how you show your mistakes and deaths instead of just editing them out of both the video and the script. It incorporates some hilarious moments as well as how genuine you are and not just showing a perfect run. This applies to your other videos as well💜
Wasn't expecting a souls run, hope to see more from time to time
I remember doing a DS1 challenge that I called “The Unga Bunga Run.” It was basically a no armor (except for cool hats), clubs only run. It was actually pretty fun.
Finally, a Dark Souls run for TF2 players.
Next challenge, can you beat Dark Souls 2 by killing all the enemies? This means you have to kill every enemy until they stop respawning. No bone fire ascensions can be used. You cannot fight the boss in the area until everything is forever dead.

2:15 50% more strength, which is then scaled according to the weapon. If a weapon has no strength scaling, 2-handing has almost no positives
Certain weapons have better movesets when two handed, in those cases it may still be advantageous.

I recently did a run of 3 with the Great Club, which as you imply at the beginning of the video, kicks absolute ass. So I was very excited to see this video, both because I love Clubs in these games, and because I'm super happy to see you playing them.
Another fun person to watch that does challenge runs and deserves some attention is “press continue” he is super entertaining and fun to watch
Honestly, I'm not sure if there's a game I wouldn't watch you do a challenge run of, your narration is just so entertaining.
Amazing video, I love me some Soulsborne content and would love to see more! (Especially some Bloodborne content its my favorite game)
30:15 Great. Now you made me realize. Jesus T-pose because he was entering god mode, and he respawned himself three days later.
What a happy coincidence, I just started a Great Club character called Unga Bunga and I see this amazing video pop up. Love to see you branching into the Souls franchise.
I like seeing the masterful use of cheese. Keep it up
I always wondered in the back of my head if you would enter into the world of DS challenge runs. Your style of challenge run video editing fits DS well.
I would love more Dark Souls Challenge runs. One kind of challenge run I haven't seen a lot of recently is the Classy run. The idea is this, you pick any class and must start with the pendant gift. From then on the entire run must use only your starting equipment and you're not allowed to unequip anything. Rings and attuned spells are changeable and the less restrictive version of the challenge also allows leveling
Seriously, I love that you're expanding. And yes to a Mortal Kombat game once, hah.
I also have a challenge, if you're curious and would like to accept it:
Similar to your cannibal run.
How about a Vampire run in Fallout 3, where you Cosplay as Blade and steal the Shish Kebab as your only weapon. (You are allowed to repair it.)
That Homer scream kills me every time
I did NOT expect Nerbit to give us a Dark Souls challenge, and much less did I expect a Backlogs shoutout.
With the Bed of Chaos, literally no one will fault you for fighting it in that way. It's practically an intended feature as the 'normal' way of leaving the arena is dying and they clearly made the roots not respawn for a reason. In fact the most common way I see people do it anymore is just to lob firebombs from the start of the room into the roots then rush the actual larva so seeing someone actually go for the roots was somewhat refreshing in itself.
I didn't know that I needed Nerbit Dark Souls, but your pacing and video style fits the genre so well I hope you keep making these style videos and that others enjoy them as much as I do!

Great video! Cant wait for New Game +8 fists only level 1. What a video that will be!
incredible how he gets the baldur sword on a club only run while trying to get some armor. rng sure is something huh
1:11 also Plateau peak, press continue, and gamersweekend to name a few for dark souls.
...yeah, my relax time is dark souls/Elden Ring challenge runs. got more for just elden ring. anyway, this is going to be interestiiing. glad to see this, Nerbit.
19:13 slow is such a relative word in this series. 19:53 four kings before pinwheel and rekindling? huh. 20:31 and it was pointed out. gotcha.
28:40 aww... no...
I'd love to see you tackle the rest of the Souls franchise, ESPECIALLY Elden Ring since it's my favorite Fromsoft game (and the first one I've completed...3 or 4 times)
I’m loving it and I haven’t even started yet, keep up the good work man. You’re a great content creator !
ymfah, Lil Aggy, The Backlogs and Nerbit!!
Thought this was The Backlogs at first lol. Welcome to Dark Souls runs! Glad to see what you cook up for with this franchise lol
Man, I am happy that you are keep trying out new games for this video-format.
It keeps things fresh and I really like it :D
I’ve done this run, it was challlengimg but I loved it. I only allowed myself the club and the woodplank shield, which meant I didn’t allow myself to use anything else, except those two weapons. This included summons as well. It’s nice to see though that everyone is coming up with unique ways to beat the game still.
Ah the meme video. I wonder how many of us saw that post
Pretty good vid, and I have a suggestion for a challenge run: Can you beat Fallout New Vegas (or 3, either is good) by only moonwalking?
Rules:
You can walk backwards (except leaving doc mitchel's house/ entering + exciting buildings)
Any weapons are allowed
Can only wear a suit and fedora
No fast travel (because you could secretly not moonwalk)
Amazing video! I always love seeing people challenge themselves to do crazy things in dark souls!
Using the club in dark souls is so fun. Not the fanciest run but I'm so glad to see you making any souls videos at all
Dude. Welcome to the Dark souls community! Watching this video brought back soo many great memories! Can't wait till you master parrying!
Probably one of the easiest ways to beat dark souls you just whack him with a stick
Love the backlogs shout-out and the Dark soul content
Fun tip, target shield gives you longer parry window. You probably already know this but just in case you don't.
This is how I beat the game on my first blind playthrough lmao.
I always love seeing dark souls challenges from my favourite youtubers. Fromsoft games are some of the best ever made
I love how you are branching out into the Souls games, as someone who's favorite game of all time is Bloodborne, I'm hoping to see that fairly soon as well, maybe a Threaded Cane only run, or maybe a Madman run (basically with the exception of blood vials, you can only use weapons, armour, and items with "mad" in it's descriptive text).
Another idea maybe is a Nioh run, if you've ever gone through and like the game. Seeing as you do character based runs, and in the game of Nioh you deal with mystical elements, and the protagonist is Irish, I figured there's no better way to go about it, then trying to beat Nioh as Cú Chulainn.
