A Historic Dark Souls World Record Just Happened!

[@MaarioneteSR]

Amazing video brother, I wouldn't want anyone other than you to put this story in video format. Congratz to the community for completely destroying this game, AndrovT, Regole, who was featured and laid down the ground work for the route and helped me greatly when I needed, and others. Hope everyone enjoys it aswell :D

your running is insane bro keep it going i bet you can get it much faster

imagine losing a world record to Marisa

[@goodzillo]

Marisa Stole The Precious Record

[@illusorywall]

Ah those vviking runs are a blast from the past, a handle I haven't heard in a long time!

[@catalystz]

A true legend. Unfortunately missed those early Dark Souls speedruns 😞

[@sTiLiTy]

A true legend of the old dark souls community. When he was stressed out from not getting a BKH, or getting one and blowing the run, pulling out the piano and playing Gwyns Theme to perfection. Thanks for reminding me of those long past days :)

[@germanwojtek3576]

Bro the editing is insane I’ve never seen such a prestigious dark souls video

[@Marco_7440]

What insane production on this video. You are such an amazing content creator Cata! Loved it. Also congratz to Maario for such an amazing feat. Can't wait for you to snatch the WR back ;)

[@anthonyiodice]

Seriously, I even love his narration voice!

[@TitusActualGaming]

I am sitting here with my wife, both of us Souls content creators, and our minds are literally blown from your skills displayed on making this video. This is the best edited and most creatively made Souls Video I have ever seen. Incredible man. 👊

[@Gnurklesquimp]

18:27 That harmony actually sounds SO nice, love how it lines up

[@bushwhck851]

Unbelievable quality level! I’ve caught last 5 min of the video on your twitch channel. Now I’m anticipating watching the whole thing. Thanks a lot!

[@catalystz]

Thank YOU for the kind words!

[@JojenReed]

Absolutely blown away by this whole narrative. Coming to this whole speedrunning thing relatively late, it was incredible being even a tiny part of this story as a viewer over the last year or so. It's genuinely inspiring to bear witness to the time and dedication of a top speedrunner. And in addition, you guys are all great people? What?? It's too insane to be true, but it is. Dark Souls 1 is really something special, as is the speedrunning community in general. Can't wait to see what the future holds!

[@nordgaren2358]

Great Job Maarionete! And Regole and Catalyst! Great video! It's cool to see people still progressing these runs years after the game came out! Can't wait to see the next improvement!

[@catalystz]

Thanks so much for your help again, Nordgaren! Modders are as big a part of the speedrun community as anyone. So many great things were borne from the work of people like TKGP and Meow.

[@TheGunvoltReference]

So what you're telling me is Momiji is a good dog, and her presence was enough to elevate the skill of an average 2hu enjoyer to god-like gamer status. We already knew that.

[@RegalPixelKing]

Getting a sub 1 hour is already pretty insane. But saving 17 seconds compared to the original world record makes things even more insane.

[@falkarios2944]

If you told me an Anime girl voiced by an aspiring Brazilian physicist would get the most impressive Dark Souls speed run world record to date, I would believe you with no questions asked.

[@hadesa.739]

now it is by 59:00 by Maarionete, so let's see where it can still go.

[@Amadeusz90]

Top notch editing as always, that was fun to watch - thanks for the vid! I wonder if we'll see more major glitches in the future. Btw seeing Vviking was a blast from the past, dude disappeared from the face of the earth before DS2, does anyone know how he's doing?

[@catalystz]

Thank you for the kind words! Unfortunately, I missed out on the earliest stages of DS speedrunning so I have never spoken to the man. Don't think anyone from the currently active speedrun community has heard from him in a long while.

[@xlgapelsin6173]

Dude i somewhat remember him. Legit just vanished from the earth. Hope he's doing good

[@altacc5116]

I got here algorithmically but that editing is exceptional. Not just the non-diegetic overlays but the stuff you did in game to make some shots. Credit to your editing skills

[@victoraguiar8096]

On one hand, I am sad that Summoning Salt will never cover Dark Souls since cata is already doing it. On the other, catalystz's videos are so good all-around that we don't need SS's attention, we already have someone doing an amazing job at recording this game's history. Oh, and another thing... É BRASIL CARALHO!!!

Wonderfully put together as ever! The editing is stunningly clean and beautiful

[@hesher1857]

i randomly started watching maarionete´s runs on twitch the last couple of months. seeing this video, explains alot now. great vid cata

[@XKikachuX]

wow the level of editing on this video was really impressive. also I saw a new dks 1 skip in undead burg I thought I'd seen it all like 2000 hours in after 10 years

[@AnimusBehemoth]

I've got a playlist of videos to watch when I don't feel like editing. Whether they do something I've never seen or just pull everything off so smoothly that I get inspired, they always pump me back up to grind and keep improving. This is now video 1 on that playlist.

[@LDFeyre]

Beside this amazing storyline, your amazing editing skills and this awesome archievment, i am super grateful, that the speedrunner community is so wholesome. I mean you told basically yourself that he is competitor of you, but you are doing him such an honor to tell his story to the world. True sportsmanship.

[@Arbalesto7]

Such an amazing video!!! Thank you so much Cata, and a TREMENDOUS ammount of respect for my brazilian bro Maarionete! O HEXA VEM DEMAIS!

[@davidcombs8914]

CATA This is some of the best editing you've done so far, such an enjoyment to watch, THANK YOU. Big Congrats to Maario

[@TwoDaysFromRetirement]

The camera movement is great but the editing is amazing. Super great use of sound to highlight without being overbearing, same for camera shake and other little stuff like that. Love it

[@TwoDaysFromRetirement]

holy shit there's custom 3d rendered graph elements too

[@TwoDaysFromRetirement]

my god, it's even got a watermark

[@catalystz]

Thank you for noticing all of the little details! I always try to push myself one step at a time with each video. I learned so much in the process of making this one.

[@seedmole]

Great video Cata, and great work Regole and Maario. And lol, the yawn heard round the world 10:48

[@ThiccFish]

I love just seeing marrisa go "Fucking asshole"

[@ravelord_nito1252]

ive been out of the dark souls speedrunning loop for a while. coming back to this is awesome to see

[@ramonchi_5]

Catalystz is an extremely impressive runner and he will leave his mark in the souls comuntity as such. But these video-documentaries could not be any better, keep up the good work!

[@hugorodriguez8422]

Sublime, congrats to Maario, and thanks for the amazing video. Can't wait to see Regole's response, cheers!

[@brunopaynejunior8285]

One of the most (if not THE most) enjoyable videos about speedrunning I've ever seen. Production quality is beyond godlike! I dunno how much effort you've put into this, but I assume it was a tremendous work. (sorry, english isn't my native KEKW )

[@rollii3394]

editing is top stuff, love it

[@xenorasgaming]

Wow Cata! This editing must be among the best I've ever seen on KZbin! And the content is also just amazing. Dark Souls speedruns are what got me into the scene. The first ever speedrun I ever saw was an DS1 any% run thats was just under sub60. And now we are at All Bosses sub60. Simply incredible.

[@dragons_advocate]

Dude, your editing skills are out of this world!

[@DoctorSwellman]

Damn, I just got through the intro and that was absolutely incredible

[@poofgone324]

The fact you can put aside your pride to makes a great video about your competitors praising their skills is sportsmanship at its finest, great job man

[@DonTinker]

Stumbled on this video recommended on my feed and I can't be happier about it, your edit quality is just superb, kudos!

[@RealLofef]

Marisa Kirisame is the ultimate speedrunner

[@willychonkers9360]

My man just used the Cultic ost for the intro. I'm so happy that masterpiece of a game is even sparingly recognized ! Banger video as always Cata. Love your content

Thanks algorithm for giving me this video. Great editing and fantastic content :)

Ok video just started and I'm hyped. I can't stand watching any% runs ever since the meta became unlocking the camera. Happy to see the best category has been still going strong this whole time.

No Man's Sky music as soon as he does the final hit was a nice touch. After i heared the first note, i knew that it will be that one song, because it *is* fitting

Crazy editing and work, ty so much for keeping my Ds speedrun interest so alive.

[@kawaimu3066]

I appreciate the usage of the No Man's Sky soundtrack. It definitely fit here. GG's to Maarionete!

You're editing really turns this from ok cool speedrun gg to a truly emotional journey, incredible job to everyone involved and you for editing this in to an amazing story

[@ryanschultz4119]

Very magnanimous of you to make a video commemorating another speed runners momentous achievement. It's stuff like this that illustrates the virtues of the Soul's community. Being a late arrival to it. I can't tell you how much support & help I've received on my Dark Souls journey. I can't imagine the stress & excitement you speed runners experience when in the midst of a potential record breaking run! Probably similar to how us ordinary gamers feel the 1st time we face Ornstein & Smough, or try to get past the Bed of Chaos. Lol. Very much enjoyed this video.👍 Top notch content!👊

[@MemoROFL]

Phenomenal vid as always cata, thanks for doing these.
