It's funny how the only souls game that wasn't directed by Miyazaki was the first one having a weapon with an attack involving feet

Ds1 did have the lava ring whatever it’s called which gives you really hot feet

[@Oroberus]

Who would have thought that Tarantino had a part in the development of DS2

[@PressContinue]

Nashandra's bare feet demonstrate Miyazaki's involvement

[@JohannesBee]

8:15 I'm shocked you didn't expect Najka to resist kicking. As we know, roaches and scorpions have a naturally high stomping resistance

[@crazyakira1222]

Thanks for the lore about Queelag's rear-end. You know what kind of lore we, Dar Souls afficionados, are interested in. You're really the best DS lore youtuber out there!

[@Oroberus]

That indeed opens up the question if Qualag would, theoretically, be able to bare a fully human child

@@Oroberus if I may jest, I think she would, as, well, if there's a hole, there's a way, am I right?

14:21 Regarding the "weird 37 damage", the Rotten was still in his grab animation. Bosses have hyperarmor when doing grabs, hence the reduced damage.

[@djentle-now]

As an American, I appreciate the showing of 2 Bear Arms. Thank you, kindly.

[@DieSpielhoelle]

This was one of the runs of Dark Souls 2 I had the most fun with. Playing Dark Souls 2 as a D&D Monk first with Fists, then Caestus, then Vanquisher Seal and finaly Bone Fist.

[@armando1is1great]

Dude you have the best alliterations and puns around, really makes your vids great! Hilarious stuff

[@Alckemy]

I’m more impressed with the constant onslaught of puns than the challenge itself. You went above and beyond

[@bee5464]

Don't you mean that he went a step above?

[@PhillStone]

Thank you for that Quelaag lore, i will now think on this for hours before bed...

[@danielt6958]

I can't help but enjoy the entertaining (and slightly deranged) challenge runs you seem to make. Maybe try a broken poison infused ladle for your next one 😂.

[@bedaskun5312]

Never in my life did I expect to hear some Babymetal in a Press video, amazing as always ❤

[@beergod1175]

Love the Baby Metal intro. Just saw them live in Las Vegas on 10/08. Great show and great video. Keep it up man

[@trixielulamoon2262]

Also, the reason The Rotten took a random 37 damage is because bosses take like a billion less damage while doing grab attacks!

[@tgman6000]

It never ceases to amaze me how many jokes you cram into these, in the script of course but especially the editing. I love it.

[@Rattlehead62]

i never noticed that with quelaag, i always just assumed the spider part started at her waist. that's a neat little fact.

[@shikogazlene2288]

Man, I love watching these videos. The corny jokes, the humorous wording, all of the fuck-a-licious(fergalicious?), the Photoshop usage, it's all so good

[@gamerindependente]

That AVGN reference was absolutely fantastic!

Main takeaway from this video is that quelaag still has human reproductive organs

[@taxevaderyoshi5795]

I'm honestly convinced that the dark souls trilogy can be beaten in any ways tbh. Someone's probably beat it using only their left testicle at this point.

The boyo getting dropkicked off the windmill was the funniest thing I've seen all year. 😂

Walking away from this challenge run unscathed is quite the feet added to your repertoire!

The intro word play was exquisite lol

[@TheAshenedPhoenix]

The fact you used a sound byte from Kicked in the Nuts made me snort out fizzy water. (My nose now hates you). However you good Sir Press Continue are a legend! 😂

[@DeuxisWasTaken]

From what I gathered, in Dark Souls universe Fire represents life and Poison/Toxic represents death and enemies heavily associated with one are usually quite weak to the other. Same with Light(ning) and Darkness.

The Gower's Ring's NG+ location might actually be in reference to its old location in vanilla DS2, as it used to be in that part of the Shaded Woods as a pickup!

[@DragonRider6566]

The scalings and requirements are surprisingly realistic: it takes a specific amount of skill and precision to master it, but after that everything else that can be improved has to do with the power of your strikes

[@YureiOni]

I love that you can actually wear the symbol of avarice in ds2 and not have to worry too much about your health. In ds3, that thing ate away at your heath.

[@PressContinue]

Yeah but on the other hand, that makes it feel a bit useless. I mean a mimic head run in DS3 feels like an actual challenge run. Whereas in DS2 it's more like a gimmick.

[@younesakdah1803]

Can I, kick it? Yes you can.

[@azeria1]

Why do mimics evens attack like this anyway like who thought the kicking was a normal attack for a mimic

[@PressContinue]

I'm not sure anything would be "normal" for a living chest with arms and legs

[@dylankilby6785]

Hell yeah! Been a while since I've been able to catch a stream - but so glad to always see you put out videos :) My fiancee recently said she wanted to get into Dark Souls, and I'm gonna start her with some of your runs. (Kinda hope she ends up being better at the game than me because that'd be pretty cool.)

To think the Najka fight with bone fist kicks takes a bit longer than doing Kalameet sl6 no upgrades, which took me just over 15 mins. It's surprising, though yh I think it is because they scaled that weapon's damage around doing multiple hits

Not using the song "Club Foot" by Kasabian in the intro is a bit of a *misstep* if you ask me.
