Elden Ring - Let's Play Part 2: Exploring Limgrave

[@UchihaSasuke253]

"I took off work for 2 weeks to play this." that's the most badass thing ever. true gamer. just subscribed because of that.

[@HBD777]

All his guides a are fantastic

[@hmuna_fanai]

I'm taking only ONE week off. I'm only half a true gamer. 😞

[@NerdHerdForLife]

I took off four days and had three more days of PTO I could have taken, but by daughter would be back from her moms after the weekend and it would be hard to play then so, fuck it.

It’s funny watching souls vets disregard the jump attack. It’ll definitely take some getting used to

@@McGoughable if you're on console, you can easily re-map the buttons without issue. I did it first thing so I would have the muscle memory later on. In case you weren't aware of it. I switched x and triangle to match other Fromsoft games.

Wish it was in dark souls or even the sprint button a bit dodgy but amazing series

[@Zamerus]

I know cowboy won't see this till late in the game but to access summons apparently you go back to where you meet the first merhant after getting torrent. There should be a Wich that gives you the bell and wolf summon

[@4c3fr3h1y]

how many videos in until he discovers the spirit calling bell? I'm assuming you've seen it by this point lol.

[@somebuddie5421]

Cowboy you're such a wholesome gamer, had you sittin on my shoulder while I platinumed sekiro lol. Keep up the good work man, love you and your content! I'm counting down the seconds till I'm able to play, goin in somewhat blind. I'm planning on doing a strength/magic for my first playthrough.

You’re our absolute favorite. Detailed play. Calm reassuring guidance. We’ve laughed. We’ve ooomph’d right alongside you. We only tried ER because of your videos. We’re having a blast. Thank you!

I’ve been watching your videos for a few years now. It was between you and RadBrad who helped me get through my first Soulsborne game: Bloodborne. I struggled to get good at that game, but you two helped me out and I was able to not only get good at it, but really good. Love your content, man. You’re a wholesome dude and make entertaining content. I don’t normally like watching playthroughs just for the sake of watching playthroughs, but I make an exception for you two. Keep them coming.

He used his vacation time for elden ring, thats dedication and a game of this class deserves that. Been loving the playthrough so far brother!

[@hoshikiddo706]

“Flail-San let me level up dex just for you” I’m crying man 😭😭😭

[@dirtnap9641]

Was really hoping that STR would still affect load at least somewhat. Dex increases cast speed passively, so having Str do more than just damage would also make sense. And ofc he says that exact thing 2 mins later

[@randyquaid3381]

This and the dex weapons are making me consider going dex instead of strength

[@derekfreeman7244]

encanto is giving me frozen flash backs with the amount of times ive had to see it my daughter practically plays it on repeat

[@brendanfields3691]

Man i love your videos every time a souls like game releases I know you got me I like to explore the area first then watch your video to see what I missed your extremely talented and make the games look easy

[@mggtwithagun]

Hey Cowboy, great video. Excited to play this in a few HOURS!!! I noticed something odd: at 13:17 one of the bats in the group has golden eyes (13:05 and on) and upon killing it (13:20), you gain 235 runes. The other bats dropped 47 runes (13:26) and (13:43), meaning the gold eyed version dropped 5X the normal runes. You didn't proc the overkill bonus (like it has existed in previous souls games) and the bat didn't look any more difficult than the other two. I don't know if you noticed this or if anyone else has noticied that detail but that a pretty neat mechanic.

[@theremnant216]

Really glad I stumbled across this comment! I'll be on the lookout for the golden eye bat!

[@okonkwojones]

@walter also, keep a look out for skulls with a blue glow on the ground in that exterior area. If you roll/attack them they drop the equivalent of a crunchable soul. I didn’t do a ton of hunting, but I ended up with 1800 runes with just small runes alone, and I have a good handful of higher tiers I don’t want to pop yet, as I haven’t gotten the ability to level, I bought all the items I needed at the cathedral merchant. Which was good, because I lost every soul I got from the tutorial area when I to tussle with the golden horse knight while on foot.

[@okonkwojones]

“I have a halberd, foot infantry used them effectively against cav, right? Oh I see-he’s beaten my ass. Again.”

[@TBRStangg]

They DEFINITELY give more. I was farming runes in the east map today, killed one of those doll things that normally give 1050 runes, except it had glowing eyes - it gave me 5k.

[@mggtwithagun]

@@TBRStangg 5x 1000 = ???

[@kylemelton2971]

Cowboy you’re great but you killed me man 😂😂😂 the great sword was in the first wagon you passed and I was like bud turn around it’s behind you!!!!

[@BIGHEADjr51]

Kinda like playing a game by yourself

[@namenome3680]

i guess you haven't watched Asmongolds walkthrough then lol, now that was painful

[@brandonschleppy2230]

Thank you for all of the amazing content! You helped me get the most out of Demons souls, dark souls 1, and some of dark souls 3 so far. Those will be put on hold for Elden ring, but that’s ok! It’s weird seeing comments from 10 hours ago on a video, I’m used to years ago. Keep up the great work!

[@moncreebrown948]

I plan on running Confessor as well so I'll definitely watch this build closely. Nice to see you back on Cowboy, love your videos brother.

[@blackronin848]

Lol I chose the prisoner oddly the off hand weapon is better I hurried and found a new right hand weapon off hand spell casting is op

[@Bender_B._Rodriguez]

For anyone wondering the confessor doesnt just have the best drip, its the best class full stop even if you dont do casting. Dex fth, fth arc, Int Fth. its just sweet instead of ungga bungga stomp

[@randyquaid3381]

After getting 24 hours into the game I now plan on watching this playthrough whenever I'm not playing

[@darthrevan4life]

Just found this and instantly subscribed the moment you talked about Encanto. My 3yr old daughter is obsessed with it and I hear the songs daily and also know every lyric. Great video and look forward to catching up!

[@BattlestarHavoc]

My kids cant get enough of Encanto!! Very excited to start the binge watch of Elden Ring featuring Cowboy, been waiting a few years for this so excited to see the kings return to soulslike!!

When you relize, the playlist has 116 videos :D

Thing about the message writing is, your humor to the game and experience. Also depends on if you’ve had a few drinks or smokes to find the humor laid without

[@Axetwin]

Had to save the playlist for this because there's no way I can keep up with the upload speed of this series. Just saw the number of videos you have planed for this, damn that's a lot.

[@nobizzle3410]

I love that the crabs have the same animations from ds3. So excited to play this

[@CartoonWeasel]

The convoy doesnt need to be attacked. Just go behind and open chest. I did it and chest opened no issues. Also at the part where theres ruins, theres 2 caravans, well you missed the first one near the grace it had a great sword in it.(you opened the second one with the flail but forgot the first one with great sword.)

[@GATORBUBS]

FCB took off two weeks, I took off the 24th, 25th, (26th and 27th were the weekend) and then Monday the 29th. I had to put in my PTO months in advance to make sure I had my 5 days of pure Elden Ring. Cowboy taking 2 weeks is absolute legend material mad respect man

[@doubledont4949]

Thank you for uploading 5 episodes today!

[@wilfloyd7635]

The "Encanto dad-gamer" bit got me. My girlfriend is OBSESSED with the soundtrack for that movie. Never seen it, but those are her go-to bar jukebox songs. I'm giggling like an idiot rn.

[@Whiskeeyankee]

My new favorite QoL change is the fact that doing stuff outside of combat doesn't consume stamina. I love that. However, the new thing I hate is the fact that I can't "ledge" enemies. I don't want them doing derpy stuff and jumping off but I'd love to kick them off with a well-placed backstab. I've tried this several times but so far they hit an invisible wall that doesn't seem to be there when I get knocked off. Anyone else noticed this?

[@SoFarSoGoodSoWhat14]

Can confirm later in the game you definitely can, don't want to spoil just in case, but I have definitely done it, it just needs to be an area with an actual death zone pit or a really high fall since they nerfed fall damage for enemies too, not just you

[@Scottyvstar]

Love these episodes!! Thank you so much necessary for a new souls type player! Making me feel like I know what I'm doing
